What's the last movie you've seen?

[Goofy]

Saw STAR WARS.

I thought there were a lot of flaws. IT just didn't quite feel like an integrated whole....Characters were built up and disappeared all of a sudden, and other appeared unexplained. Gaps in the story line. No real satisfaction to any aspect. The same repeated scene of the Rebel ships put putting away while their asses get bombed (that was the story line right there :yawn:) A bit too much touchy-feely emotional pandering.

Still, I enjoyed the movie all up. I thought the most interesting character was Luke Skywalker, great job by Mark Hamil conveying the same annoying insecure, idealistic ( yet compelling) kid who keeps fcking up. Second favourite character was the lil droid :) Rest were all fine, just not great. 7/10

Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri

A dark comedy, with the emphasis on dark. Fantastic movie.

I would have sworn that the Coen Brothers wrote this in their heyday, same tone.

Frances McDormand is great as a grieving mother whose daughter was raped and killed.

Woody Harrelson and Sam Rockwell also give great performances.

A lot of unexpected moments in this. Recommended.

Justice League

I was never a big comic book reader and have to say that most Superhero movies degenerate into a confusing mess of invincible people throwing each other around into buildings. Killing millions of civilians in the process. Shame on you Superheroes.

There's been the odd Spiderman or Superman or Ironman movie that has some heart and I've enjoyed, but not many.

That being said this movie had both components from the above. Lots of big-ass smackdown scenes, along with a few humorous scenes and a few character scenes.

Ben Assfleck will never be Batman to me, the Cyborg dude was a total CGI mess, as well as most of the Chernobyl CGI scenes looked like bad miniatures. It was an odd mix.

I liked Cavill as Superman, dude who played the flash was funny at times, but overall I just can't care about what happens to people who for the most part, can't be hurt.

Where's DGX??? To me, Aquaman is a dude with blonde hair and a gill suit. He is NOT a big biker looking guy with a beard who drinks whiskey :lol:

Wonder Woman is hot, but again...she's just about invincible so where's the real danger?

I was mildly entertained, but would never pay for a movie like this.

Dee and I talked about the DC shitamatic universe earlier. I'm really disappointed in what they're doing.

[Hal-9000]

I own them and have read them several times. They're by far my favorite long form books by King, except for the way that Flagg died. In fact, the whole subplot surrounding that, to me, was King phoning it in. Other than the Dark Tower series, his short stories are better. Just my opinion.

For what the movie was, there should've been more to it. It didn't have to have everything from all of the books and related short stories, but it felt way too rushed. Should've been a trilogy, at the very least.

Guess I don't need to read books two-eight now :| I'm on book one of the Dark Tower series currently.

Justice League

Meh, it was ok. Predictable.

I still say Gal Gadot is a terrible actress.


i'm surprised you gave dc anymore money :lol:

my kids have ZERO interest in seeing that one...


Joss Whedon was involved in it, and the reviewers were saying that it was better than the earlier crap they put out. I wanted to give it a chance. I sincerely doubt I'll go to see any more of them.

And seriously, she may be eye candy, but Gadot sucks as an actress.

The kid that plays the Flash was pretty good, but the problem is you've already seen all the really funny scenes in the previews. The entire fucking movie was practically in the previews and the fucker was like 2 hours long. Furthermore, it's 2 fucking hours long and it still felt like some junk needed to be fleshed out a little better.

The whole time I'm watching Momoa, I'm thinking of the Big Bang Theory Halloween episode where no one wants to be Aquaman. It's not that Momoa was bad, I just couldn't get Raj out of my head saying, "Man, Aquaman sucks." :lol:

The dude who played Cyborg felt like the token black guy. I kinda feel bad about saying that because the guy is supposedly a good actor. But you can't help but compare him to Chadwick Boseman, Anthony Mackie, and/or Don Cheadle. They just had better material to work with.

There were several characters that were cut from the film and I'm really wondering why. How can you cut Willem Dafoe out of a fucking film? He makes the films he's in better!?! Maybe they'll release an extended Bluray or something with more scenes like they did with BvS.

Wait for the down-rent... or it'll probably be out on a streaming service sooner or later.

Oh well, Star Wars will be out in a few weeks. Palate cleanser.


thanks for the thorough review. i was debating whether to try to convince my kids to go to it over the next few days when they are off from school, but clearly won't bother :lol:

No, they're great books. Read them. My complaint was with the last book and oddly enough, they addressed that complaint in the movie... and I'm still not happy. I guess that's how bad the movie is in my eyes.

You kind of dropped a huge spoiler about a main character....:(

I've already read the series when they came out years ago :lol:

I'm pre-prepping myself with a refresher before watching the recent movie. It's been a few years since the first four books came out.

Have to agree. King has done better work.

[DemonGeminiX]

To be honest though, most of the movie adaptations of King's books usually fall flat. His writing doesn't really translate well to the big screen. I haven't seen the new It yet, but a lot of people are saying it's good, so my interest is peaked. If a King adaptation is good, then that usually means that the writers and directors have taken massive liberties with the source material. Think Stanley Kubrick's The Shining... half of the junk in the film doesn't go down like that in the book. When they try to follow the book verbatim, the result usually sucks. There's a bunch of examples I can name. I don't think the ideas in his head play out like a movie. Maybe he just can't visualize it. Or maybe we're too desensitized to think the shit in his head is truly horrifying. I'm sure a croquet mallet would hurt, but really? Can you seriously terrorize somebody with it?

I've found that King's books were better the first time through. Meaning, on a reread years later they don't seem as shocking or well written as I remember them. There could be other reasons for that, like other authors have stepped up their game and writing in general has improved over the years.

I just reread It, The Stand, and am going through the Dark Tower series now. The Stand in particular is not half as good as I recall. Some might say there's some hack writing in there.

The end of It is/was a mess depending on your taste and King has a bad habit of ending his books badly.

I liked The Shining movie (maybe because of the changes?) and understand your points above. His brand of terror rarely translates to movies. His ideas are still way out there, and I think that's why I appreciate him as an author.

As I get older though, my love for his work seems like a memory of something great you had as a child. You go back to that memory only to find it wasn't that great.

I can agree with this statement in so many ways over many different things other than Stephen King. :lol:

When I was a kid growing up in NJ, we used to have supermarket frozen pizza called Ellios. Just rectangular frozen pizza. Nothing special about it. My cousin and I used to inhale those things like the air we breathed. It was so good. I always had fond memories of Ellios pizza back when I was a kid. Fast forward 35 years later, I find Ellios pizza in a local supermarket here in town... and I buy it. I come home, I cook it, I eat it, and it is the absolute worst tasting piece of shit I've ever had in my entire life. I immediately imagine my adult self looking back in time to my childhood self and telling him, "You fucking idiot. What the hell's the matter with you? This is horrendous. Jesus, kid, get a clue."... and the childhood me just looks down at his feet and starts crying. :lol:

Calling it a so-so story is being very generous. A B is very generous. The filmmakers don't understand the Original Trilogy characters and they seriously don't understand how the Force works. You praised Luke, but his characterization was all wrong. Luke doesn't succumb to fear, he faces it head on. He wouldn't run away. He wouldn't give up. There's no way in hell a n00b like Rey could control the Force the way she has in either film without extensive training. That's just the way it is. Anakin was created by the Force and he still needed training. Kylo may have held back on her, but for a guy who's powerful enough in the Force to stop blaster fire in midair to be beat in a lightsaber dual by anybody without any kind of training at all, let alone a girl who can barely wield a saber? C'mon man... that's complete and utter bullshit. She wouldn't be able to pull a Jedi mind trick and she wouldn't be able to move objects with ease like she has.

And Chewie's not a frickin' vegan, dammit. I don't care how cute the Porgs are.

Since when do we give a shit about fuel in a galaxy far far away? They totally ripped off BSG with that one.

Leia pulling a Mary Poppins in space was complete and utter bullshit.

That whole Rose story arc was god awful.

I just got back from seeing this. The theater was barely a quarter full and there was like 2 black guys in the entire crowd and they were sitting together. I think one of them kept looking around at all the white people in the movie theater.

Anyway, it's not a bad movie, but it's kind of run of the mill for Marvel origin/intro films. I think they're following a generic intro script with this one. Media reviews have it ranked higher than it deserves. Honestly, I was a little bored with it. The best part was the after scene showing Bucky, but even that was "ok, now what?". It didn't really advance the narrative much besides the fact that Bucky wasn't frozen anymore. I guess it's safe to assume that they got the conditioning out of his head. The tribal kids were calling him "The White Wolf", so I'm not sure what's going to come of that.

One of those cases where the real story eclipses the movie. The raft and then what followed...it was incredible.

thor ragnarok :tup:

then...

justice league :|

[DemonGeminiX]

Should have reversed the order in which you watched them. You would have been left feeling better. :lol:

[deebakes]

watched thor on the way to baltimore last week, justice league on the way back. thor was highlighted as a new release and i hadn't seen it, so i immediately started watching it even before take off :lol:

[redred]

Both weren't that great

[deebakes]

at least thor 3 was better than thor 2 :shrug:

[DemonGeminiX]

I thought Ragnarok was pretty good. Not Winter Soldier good, but still pretty good. A damn sight better than 2. :idk:

[deebakes]

i had somewhat low expectations for ragnarok, which made it easy for it to exceed them and be better than i expected... :tup:


i had the same low expectations for justice league... they should have been even lower :lol:

Yes, definitely an interesting story, whatever you make of it - and well acted. I'll never see Marvel the same again.

i've been curious to check that one out, probably will wait until it is on my next flight :lol:

[lost in melb.]

Wonder Woman is a DC property not Marvel

True, but the whole female kicking ass thing happens a lot in Marvel, too. DC doesn't seem to be on the radar as much...

[DemonGeminiX]

DC rushed things to try to catch up to Marvel and cash in on the superhero movie craze that Marvel started with Iron Man. Subsequently, DC's fucking everything up because they're not taking their time writing decent scripts and introducing their universe bit by bit like Marvel did.

The Accountant

We saw this instead of another movie that was cancelled. The women hated it, and the guys all liked it. No idea it was DD Lewis, damn he's a good actor.

my kids went to that over the weekend, i haven't seen it yet. they didn't seem overly impressed (and generally my older one is a good barometer for movies). he said it was good, but definitely not his favorite marvel movie :shrug:

i can't say too much as i haven't watched it :lol:

[DemonGeminiX]

You need to go see it, Dee.

It was good, but like your kid, not my favorite Marvel movie either. It moved fast. It didn't feel like 2 and a half hours. There's a lot going on and they get down to business from the opening bell. It follows the comic, but they don't put everything in there. If they did, the movie would easily be 7+ hours long. Still, they could have easily made the movie 3 and a half hours, and it still wouldn't feel like it was dragging along.

Stay for the after credits scene.

[deebakes]

thanks for the advice, i will see it at some point, just not quite sure when at this point :lol:

Deadpool 2 is coming up on the 18th and the Han Solo one is on the 25th. It's a heavy movie month.

i knew i wasn't going to be going with my kids, so the opportunity was there tonight to go :lol:

[DemonGeminiX]

I just want to avoid the rush. I don't mind waiting a few days.

[deebakes]

it wasn't too bad in the theatre i typically go to tonight, but i am sure it is more than a typical thursday night movie in that place :tup:

one guy brought his son, who must have been maybe 12. the dad was out of the theatre more than half the time, i don't quite know how to interpret that :idk:

[DemonGeminiX]

I live in a small town with not a whole helluva lot to do. New releases are always packed on the first weekend, especially for the geek fare... Star Wars, comic book flicks, action/sci fi/comedies... I just don't like to deal with the crowds.

I remember going to the Dark Knight Rises on release night and almost coming to blows with some asshole teenagers taking up all the handicapped spots in the theater, even when there was an entire row of empty seats 3-4 rows down.

[deebakes]

i guess there are 4 movie theaters in our town with the one i typically go to the least likely for dates. the place is good and reasonable, but nothing fancy or lounger style or anything. i paid $5 to go on opening night at 7 pm with the discount they give me for being an employee of a particularly large employer in the city :lol:

[DemonGeminiX]

I have 1 theater in town. Small, 9 screens, plush seats, but not the lounge type. If I want to go to another theater, I have drive an hour north to Brunswick, or an hour (or more) south to Yulee/Fernandina, Jacksonville, or all the way down to Saint Augustine (which I have never done... St. Augustine's just way too far to see a movie). I don't mind driving to Yulee/Fernandina, or even to North Jax. I don't mind going to Brunswick either, but in both cases, I need to have other junk on my to-do list to justify making the trek. Going all that way for a movie alone just isn't enough to justify the drive.

The greatest line to ever have been spoken by any character in any film, TV show, or stage performance was uttered in that film.

No, not really. I'm not really sure what my highlight was to be honest.

[deebakes]

by no means was it a stellar movie, i thought it really dragged getting going for the first 1/3 at least. i think it was okay (better than last jedi), but there were a lot of problems that i had. i also couldn't help but always think khaleesi every time she was on screen, which ended up being a lot. my kids put it behind rouge one and the originals but ahead of last jedi, attack of the clones, revenge of the sith and phantom menace, which i guess is fair. i think this is majorly going to hamper the 'spin-off' star wars movies, as it really didn't tell that much of a story arc of han :shrug:

No, it wasn't stellar. I always have problems with movies that tell a preexisting backstory. Think of the 'the Thing' prequel that came out a while back. It was all storytelling by the numbers, and some of it was really forced. You're always going to know how it ultimately ends, so there's no real suspense in the dangers they try to come up with to fill in the general outline. Same thing here. We all know that Han, Chewie, and Lando make it out alive to at least episode 6, so really, what's the point? Whoop-dee-doo, big-ass gravity well with a huge ass space octopus that the Falcon has to outrun. I guess there's no real danger to anybody here since we're not in an alternate timeline and we already know where, when, and how Han Solo eventually dies. Introducing the other characters and making them the real story might have made it better, but they didn't do that. But they did that in Rogue One, and that's why it was such a stellar movie. We knew ultimately what was going to happen, the Death Star plans get to the Rebels, but what happened to the players responsible? We had no idea who was involved and how they did it, and that's what made Rogue One so much fun.

The Game of Thrones people are going to be haunted by the fact that they were on that show for the rest of their careers, kind of like how the original Star Wars cast is haunted by the fact that they were a part of Star Wars. So yeah, whenever we see Emilia Clarke, all we're gonna think is Khaleesi. Whenever we see Peter Dinklage, all we're gonna think is Tyrion Lannister. That's what happens when you're a part of something iconic. You can't escape it. From now on, Robert Downey Jr. is Tony Stark. And he always will be. Period, end of. But I guess he's at a stage in his life where that's ok. He did it right. He had a career, a decline, then a resurgence into an iconic role. And he made a gazillion dollars off of it. Seriously, he's set for life now. You could say the same thing about Alec Guinness.

The film was ok. I kept thinking that these anthology filmmakers really like smartass droids. They must have stolen the idea from Interstellar. Anyway, you're not gonna beat Empire. A New Hope. Rogue One is up there with the first 2. Then comes ROTJ. I'll put Solo in the middle and I'm currently putting the prequel trilogy ahead of the sequels. You can pick and choose the order, but really, what it boils down to is that all 5 of them are inferior films compared to my top 4. The prequels could have been a lot better, but whatever. Scrap the sequels, rewrite new sequels and make them vastly different.

There's rumors that there could be a sequel to this one. I say if they make Han and Chewie part of a larger crew full of characters that we don't know, but end up giving a crap about and find out what happens to them instead of trying to make us worry about Han and Chewie, then maybe it could work. But I doubt it. Han and Chewie are the bankable characters, and that's what the filmmakers are going to focus on.

There's a backlash among fans because of the sequel series with Rey and all of the other new ones. It's because of the Last Jedi, really. That's why the Solo film came in second behind Deadpool 2. The fans are boycotting this film. All told, they're probably gonna boycott future films as well. People are calling for the immediate removal of Kathleen Kennedy. If the Lucasfilms organization doesn't turn this ship around, then I don't see new Star Wars films remaining a bankable commodity for much longer.

Personally, I think they should get away from the main story and the main characters and reinstate the expanded universe and make some movies about shit other than Han and the Skywalker line. There's an entire galaxy with a rich history to explore. Make some films using that stuff as inspiration. That's my 2 cents.

good points dgx. my kids and i were talking about it this morning a bunch and we decided that knowing that han/chewie/lando are all okay left this film as kind of a get to know a little back story on han, but not all the way to the beginning of new hope, so there is still a lot of story left to tell from our thinking. i left being more interested almost in qi'ra's story and would have liked to see the whole arc there instead of focusing on a main character and not completing his story.

rogue one was a great movie, it told an entire story, there wasn't a feeling of 'just the tip' like there was when i left from solo :lol:

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom

I thought it was better than the first Jurassic World that came out a couple of years back. More suspense, in my opinion. Still not better than the the first Jurassic Park though.

A few of the characters in it were complete idiots, but whatever. I'm still not buying Chris Pratt as the Velociraptor whisperer.

There's one scene that, if you're really paying attention, will make you a little sad. Reviewers are talking about it online. Some people had some strong reactions to it.

Meh, It was ok, Probably my least favorite Marvel film to date. The Comedic quips were forced, the effects were way overdone and the racist theme of "us vs them" was pushed way too hard. Very obvious liberal agenda. Should have just stuck to making entertainment.

BTW It doe's little to advance the ongoing storyline across other Marvel films. If you decide to skip it I'll give you a half paragraph summary to fill in the needed details for Infinity Wars.

[Pony]

So it's okay to watch Infinity War without seeing Black Panther? Nothing major is brought up in Infinity War that will leave me lost because I didn't watch Black Panther?

I haven't seen Infinity war yet but there wasn't much that couldn't be summarized in a couple sentences.

Wakanda is a secret advanced city of Vibranium based technology, including weapons, medicine and transportation (including a vibranium grown plant that gives BP super strength and reflexes). In the after movie clip Wakanda comes out to the UN announcing they will start supporting impoverished areas globally, essentially the secret is out that they are a world superpower sitting on a shitload of Vibranium

[DemonGeminiX]

Also, don't forget that Bucky is in Wakanda after the events of Civil War. One of the end credit scenes of BP is the revealing of Bucky being out of cryostasis. It's a minor detail, but it does comes into play in Infinity War.

I wasn't too up on Black Panther either. It wasn't particularly bad per se, but it felt like they were following a formula, and yeah, there's a whole mess of underlying racist tones and were easy to spot.

It's mindless comedy, done by the guys from workaholics. Not great but I fine for what it was

[PorkChopSandwiches]

I also watched Extinction

[PorkChopSandwiches]

And Deadpool 2. I enjoyed it. Don't know what the hate was about

[Teh One Who Knocks]

Really liked it, surprised I hadn't watched it before now.

[DemonGeminiX]

John Goodman was awesome in that.

[DemonGeminiX]

And Deadpool 2. I enjoyed it. Don't know what the hate was about

What hate? I loved it. It was hilarious.

[PorkChopSandwiches]

I heard a lot of people saying it was shitty. Realized it was just haters.

Watched Smoking Aces 2 (decent action shoot em up)
Serenity (marathoned Firefly first) I loved the movie

[Fodster]

Oceans 8
Deadpool 2
Zero Dark Thirty

[PorkChopSandwiches]

Any good

[deebakes]

it was pretty terrible, but funny at points too, so i guess i don't know what to tell you :lol:

it's a movie involving melissa mccarthy and muppets including orgies and drugs :shrug:

[PorkChopSandwiches]

Sounds like I will enjoy it

[deebakes]

:rofl:

[PorkChopSandwiches]

31 some Rob Zombie movie that didn't show up here I guess. Gawd im in lust with his wife

[DemonGeminiX]

[PorkChopSandwiches]

RoboCop marathon all 4 over the last two few days

[Goofy]

RoboCop marathon all 4 over the last two few days
Dead or alive you're coming with me!

[PorkChopSandwiches]

Skyscraper
Super believable

[deebakes]

shitty? :?

[PorkChopSandwiches]

If you go into it knowing it's over the top then it's fine :)

[Muddy]

Mr Destiny.. yes a film from 1990

[DemonGeminiX]

I watch junk from the 80s and 90s all the time. :dunno:

[Pony]

Solo A Star Wars Story

[PorkChopSandwiches]

Solo A Star Wars Story

I went in with low expectations because of all the hate I read. I found it enjoyable

[PorkChopSandwiches]

I enjoyed it too.

[DemonGeminiX]

I didn't think the kid was a very good Han Solo, but the overall story was pretty good.

[deebakes]

i put it in the middle of star wars stuff personally, at least it wasn't the last jedi shit storm :lol:

[DemonGeminiX]

I never believed that any Star Wars movie could get worse than any of the prequel trilogy films, but both of the sequel trilogy flicks are definitely worse.

[Godfather]

I never believed that any Star Wars movie could get worse than any of the prequel trilogy films, but both of the sequel trilogy flicks are definitely worse.

Agreed, the most recent on in particular. I hate the direction they took with Luke's character so much, it makes no sense. The chick has no back story, I dono who the fuck Snoke is still and now he's dead... it's all just stupid.

[deebakes]

went to boston and back quick:

i, tonya :tup:
ready player one :tup:
infinity war :tup:
won't you be my neighbor? :tup:

[DemonGeminiX]

As If I Am Not There (2010)

Jesus, this was hard to watch. Heart breaking. If this is what it was really like during the Bosnian War of the 90s, then a whole lot of people are going to hell.

[Fodster]

Sicario (2) - decent but not enough action!

[DemonGeminiX]

Venom

Ok, I like Tom Hardy, but this movie was dumb. What a wasted opportunity. I guess I should've figured since Sony was in control of this one. News flash to all studios trying to make Marvel properties into movies without Marvel: Give all of the Marvel shit back to Marvel and just let it go.

[deebakes]

my oldest and i went to that last weekend... we also weren't so terribly impressed :|

[PorkChopSandwiches]

Young Guns

[deebakes]

went to the netherlands, so i watched:

the commuter (pretty alright, basically taken on a train)
red sparrow (decent enough)
oceans 8 (6/10)
tag (7/10)

then i rewatched deadpool 2 and super troopers 2 :tup:

[DemonGeminiX]

Prince of Darkness ('87)
