I saw Labyrinth for the first time on Monday and I liked it unironically. It was a fun and silly adventure. Plus at the end Sarah gets to keep all her monster friends which filled me up with a warm fuzzy feeling I hate this "ironically liking a movie" garbage. "Ironically" liking things seems to be code for "I like it but I'm afraid to admit it to my friends because I want to appear cool." I'll admit I've been guilty of it in the past but you should probably get over it after the age of 20 or 21, the latest, because otherwise it's just pathetic.

Snowglobe of Doom posted:I feel sorry for Patrick Jean who had no part of the Adam Sandler film Pixels apart from creating the original independent short film which inspired it but still gets a shout out in the Razzies category for Worst Screenplay. Also Stan Lee and Jack Kirby getting shout outs for Fantastic Four. Yeah that really irks me. I saw the original Pixels short years before Crappy Madison's Pixels and it's just a drat shame his good name gets smeared.

The new Suicide Squad trailer is good. But the movie doesn't look good. Hold on, let me remove my Comic Book Movie Bitterness goggles... *squints* Yup, still looks like it's gonna suck. kalel fucked around with this message at 18:47 on Jan 20, 2016 |

From the trailer you could guess that the plot follows these beats --superman gets bummed out about killing the second-to-last of his kind, along with a bunch of innocent humans --clark kent gets an assignment to interview bruce wayne; also meets lex luthor --meanwhile batman knows, or has an intuition of, clark kent's real identity --bats does some stuff to get supes' attention/the gubment sends supes after bats --meanwhile lex attempts to ressurrect zod to kill supes, who he knows is kent --cut back to supes' and bats' "fight" where supes doesn't actually do anything and just takes the hits --their fight is cut short when doomsday shows up while lex rubs his hands together maniacally/kidnaps lois lane --bats and supes get ready to fight when wonder woman shows up --bats and ww hold off dooms while supes goes to save lois --either he saves her or she dies --they beat doomsday while lex escapes --bats: "hey we should start the justice league" --credits --post-credits: lex discovers kryptonite I can't imagine what surprises they could include that weren't directly telegraphed from the trailer. The only thing that would surprise me is if all of the original Justice Leaguers make an appearance. Edit: Now, I'm not saying BvS will be bad, just that it won't be particularly surprising. Meanwhile Suicide Squad could be pretty surprising in its plot/tone/dialogue/etc. but it has the potential to be a shoddy Guardians of the Galaxy knock-off. kalel fucked around with this message at 23:43 on Jan 20, 2016 |

are you all still talking about avatar itt? I really want to see that Daniel Radcliffe bomb (also starring Paul Dano). Supposedly they had to turn people away because the first showing was so packed. Of course seats became available before the movie even finished.

Makes me wish I had friends who like to watch lovely movies so I could go see The Boy with them The most fun I've had watching a bad movie was when I saw R.I.P.D. and the only other people in the theatre were three loud black guys. Made what would've been a boring movie experience thoroughly enjoyable.

Madkal posted:Another worry is that they would kick Waititi off Thor because his vision doesn't align with Marvels (like they did with Edgar Wright) or that they tone his own creativity to make it as generic as possible. Take a look at this: http://birthmoviesdeath.com/2015/09/02/the-marvel-creative-committee-is-over I really hope Marvel/Disney begs Wright to come back and do a movie.

Madkal posted:It would truly suck if they wrote a book and someone who didn't understand the source material came in and changed characters around to fill in for their own ideal/fantasy. Why it would be like taking a very lovely YA novel and writing some erotic fanfic with the main characters (but being sure to change the names around). That would just be the worst thing to happen to an author like E.L. James. nice

the best non-star wars thing that can happen for daisy ridley or john boyega now is if they get roles in oscar-winning or indie films oscar issac was in drive, inside llewyn davis, and ex machina before doing star wars and xmen. then again he is an A triple plus actor who is either extremely lucky or extremely good at picking/getting roles in good films e: my entry into the classics-repackaged-with-zombies genre is "A Farewell to Arms and Legs and Brains" kalel fucked around with this message at 23:57 on Mar 22, 2016 |

there's a difference between "story" and "lore." the story of dark souls is relatively straightforward, but the lore is vast and complex. I don't get people who complain about having to read stuff in RPGs tbh. I don't mind reading little nuggets of lore as long as that lore is interesting, which it is in dark souls' case. the lore is there if you want, but it's not required to play the game. kalel fucked around with this message at 16:38 on Mar 23, 2016 |
