Alan Smithee posted:so uh Black Christmas didn't do so hot, though it's Blumhouse and reportedly only cost $5 million to make Black Christmas had some of the worst dialogue and weakest characters I've ever seen in a movie, and I've seen some real poo poo. Any momentum they might have had from Blumhouse being involved would have been erased by word of mouth after a Friday/Saturday schedule.

istewart posted:Doctor Strange is one of the few movies for which I ended up happy I paid the 3D premium. Visually, at least, I felt it was the most original and distinctive of the Marvel movies. These are pretty much my thoughts as well, but I'll add that there were a few clever bits they did that I still really like; namely how they end up dealing with the main villain at the end. I wish there was more stuff like that in the MCU, have someone who beats the bad guys with trickery and guile instead of punching a blue laser into space.

Back when ThinkGeek was a website with useful niche things, they sold 2D glasses. As in, glasses you'd wear to a 3D movie that converts the picture to 2D. Seems like a godsend for people with vision problems and anyone who just hates 3D.

Despite everything else wrong with it at least it looked fantastic in 3D. Avatar and Gravity are in fact the only 2 movies where I feel 3D enhanced rather than subtracted from the experience

The Monster Hunter movie is weird especially since there's technically precedent in the Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker crossover where Big Boss finds a giant paw shaped island where Monster Hunter monsters live (including one monster that's basically an organic version of Metal Gear REX created specifically for that game) and fights them with machine guns and rocket launchers (and they're still among the hardest bosses in the game). And the ultimate gear drop from them is a human slingshot.

I usually avoided 3D films, but saw Tron Legacy in theaters. For me, it was the worst 3D I saw. Everything out of the computer world was 2D, and once you got in the characters were still 2D in a 3D world. Everyone looked like a cardboard standee that moved. It was extremely distracting.

The first thing that makes me consider seeing Top Gun 2. Joseph Kosinski did Oblivion too. It would be cool if he became Christopher McQuarrie v2 for Cruise.

Right: the artists seem to know something about the films, at least enough to paint a passable Mrs Doubtfire and Jeff Goldblum, know what a predator looks like, know Dune is about a desert planet, etc. I'll grant that maybe they only had box art or what they could google.

Also, I'm pretty sure McQuarrie is heavily involved in the script too, so that's a good sign. Davros1 posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRTPf0g4h9s Basil is so drat good.

The most interesting thing about Dr. Strange is that about 80% of the bad guys in action scenes are taken out by slapstick accidents. It's a weird, goofy tone.
