Man comics sure to love the "woman with two batons" character, don't they.

Daredevil, Nightwing, Kickass. They're just a popular weapon choice.

Heroes have to use a blunt weapon so they can beat the absolute poo poo out of someone without having them sliced to pieces.

Plus batons are especially good for superheroes because they can be hidden in a civilian outfit.

They're both based off true stories, and it does take place after Valkyrie, so, I guess, arguably?

Those designs are just a mess. They're way too complicated, and there aren't any strong elements you can pick out. Which means they can't really be simplified for toys, video games, etc. which is a problem for a children's movie. peep this poo poo.



The toy maker just had to choose what parts to leave unpainted, because there's no clear design or theme, aside from "kibbley mess".

Squibs are great when it's just a shot of a guy getting shot. But when you're doing complicated choreography with people getting shot and other actors doing stuff all in one shot, having to clean up all the blood and redo wardrobe and makeup for every single take, that's a ton of extra work when only a small percentage of the audience will even notice the difference between squibs and CGI.

Well I mean there's so much source material.

That's why I'm not as down on the idea of five Magical Beasts movies as I was on three Hobbit movies. The Hobbit is a single story, if you try to stretch it out you gently caress it up. But the original Magical Beasts book didn't have a narrative, it was just world building. There's no pre-existing narrative to gently caress up. It's just a series of movies set in the world described by the book.

I've never heard of this, but I must admit a certainly level of interest, because it looks batshit.

Salute of the Jugger loving owns. But it is vitally important that you watch Salute of the Jugger, not Blood of Heroes. Blood of Heroes is the American release, and it cuts five minutes off the end, completely changing the movie.

This would be interesting but I can't freaking believe they still haven't done anything about when James and Lilly were in school. It's the ultimate highschool character sheet: semi-douchebag protagonist James, d'ark sadsack Snape, woeful sadsack Lupin, megacool bad boy Sirius, smart and kind Lily who is chased by our protagonist, and the runt of the group Peter.

It's also a hell of a lot more interesting than Harry's story

She needs to jump back into that franchise. Hell, bring back the entire cast from the first one. Francis from Pee Wee's Big Adventure, the kid from Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead and the male stripper from Summer School probably already have a script ready to go, they just need Jennifer Aniston on board to get the green light.

I'd watch Leprechaun: The Series: A Netflix Original.

He's probably had the most successful career outside of Friends aside from Aniston. He at least starred in a movie that was a big enough hit to get a sequel, that's more than you can say for Schwimmer, Leblanc, or Kudrow. I guess Courtney Cox has made some good money over the years with Cougar Town and the later Scream sequels.

Matt LeBlanc is starring in a series on Shwotime that's lasted five seasons so far

It's Nausicaa and San from Princess Mononoke, but it does question why certain people are there when it could be a simple future "cops vs. robbers/rebels" piece. I mean, why's Ripley in her Power Loader fighting Batou, Kusanagi, a Tachikoma and Adam Jensen? Why isn't it Wikus from District 9 in his suit or Max from Elysium, which would be more appropriate? I mean, Chappie's there. And since I brought up Adam Jensen, why is he and the Ghost from Starcraft here when it's mostly movie characters? Or Eleven from "Stranger Things"?

You're overthinking it. It's stuff from things you like. So it's good.

Why didn't they just make the truck a monster? Like, a alien ghost went into the truck and transformed it into a monstrous truck. Or an alien came to earth and got confused and thought that trucks were the dominant species, so it disguised itself as a truck. Either way, one single entity, a Monster Truck. That seems much simpler and more appealing that what they went with, a regular truck infested with a tentacle monster.

You wouldn't be able to see the pentagram when he was holding it. Because his hand would be in the way. That's how holding works.
