Their avatar take isn't bad. I've said for ages that the reason iron man resonated so well is it's a movie that says "what if we can win in the middle east, by doing it right this time and only shooting the bad guys" and people loving loved it . Iron man even goes into stark being the moral boss of the evil arms company , he solved the MIC crisis in his own person and it took over culture for an entire decade

I wonder if disney announcing a bunch of titles based on old expanded universe books is in part due to them deciding they own said books after buying lucasfilm but that the contractual obligation to pay royalties didn't transfer to them and good luck beating us in court

nonathlon posted:The original WW film got a lot of praise for being fresh, but to my eye, it was a decent or maybe above average rendition of the same old superhero formulae. The sole novelty to it was that it was female lead. And it's even worse in some sense because Diana is literally an ubermensch, born into her gifts. When she's fighting in France, I kept wondering why she needed a team of sidekicks. She's so overpowered, she could solve the whole plot by herself. She kills a ton of nazis in world war 1, so that's kind of cool Lady Militant posted:gal gadot isn't even that hot why does she get cast in everything as "Epic hot women" she was great in fast five and six. I will say she pulls off chemistry with her romantic partners really well in films (han seoul-oh, whoever Chris pine plays)

vyelkin posted:hang on a second Either she's killing a bunch of nazis who deserve it, or she's evil and is killing a bunch of mind controlled germans (who can't hurt her) who were drafted to fight for their king against Brits who were drafted to fight for their king over some complete nonsense no one can explain Plus if she was killing nazis in 1918 it explains why 1941 nazis got glossed over. Considering how americans in ww1984 panic at the sight of a revolver and stampede each other, I can only assume ww84 is in an alternate timeline created by said nazis in ww1 mastershakeman has issued a correction as of 22:22 on Dec 26, 2020 |

Wheeee posted:the first iron man movie that started this whole mess was pretty good Yeah it told a story about how america actually did get to win the war on terror after years of fuckups, it was great despite the weak third act. Don't forget the casting of RDJ as a rich playboy with alcohol problems That summer had iron man, dark knight and hellboy 2 in a months time What drives me nuts about wandavision is all the journalists calling it "lynchian" when it wasn't, then it doing a "let's change each episode to reflect an era of tv" and skipping right past twin peaks mastershakeman has issued a correction as of 01:38 on Feb 23, 2021 |

Miss Lonelyhearts posted:Someone plz tell me what's good to watch apart from allegedly DS9 Tv over the last decade: the two morgan written xfiles episodes in the latest seasons, what we do in the shadows, expanse, the boys, magicians (maybe not final season, I didn't bother); ive heard good things about warrior and banshee Scifi if you haven't somehow seen it : original prisoner, bab5, farscape, red dwarf, bsg Long movies: twin peaks season 3 That's about it. Maybe leftovers which I didn't get into but had promise. Literally every other show is will the mystery we dragged out for 4 years pay off???? Answer : nope, should have been a two hour movie (looking at you Mr robot) For the most part tv is a fool's errand if you want to veg out (no subtitles) to something enjoyable; you should be watching great movies that came out in the last decade made on shoestring budgets. For example a dozen scott adkins movies, michael jae white has a bunch, the list goes on. Unfortunately, the moving image is actually important in these unlike most tv shows , so you can't just stare at your phone and listen half heartedly mastershakeman has issued a correction as of 19:02 on Feb 23, 2021 |

babypolis posted:I watched I Care A Lot on Netflix. holy poo poo how does this steaming pile of hot garbage have a 80% on RT. way to squander a great premise and cast with the most tonally confused script ive seen in years I've convinced myself that streaming killing residuals has led to great talent having to work on way more projects, and those projects have zero effort in the writing, set design, lighting etc because everyone is there to pump out the content and then do it all over again since it's all forgettable At best there's a good premise but it's never fleshed out or developed, just shoved out the door asap

indigi posted:I didn't like how it characterized oil executives as "good, patriotic, family people doing their best" then sheepishly adds the tag "(for their shareholders)." I'm still only like 70 pages in so maybe that changes but that really annoyed me. no, it explicitly calls them out but only after setting up a high fantasy realm of a way to get them to make money fighting climate change. i'd keep reading, there's some very interesting ideas in there, but the book never lived up to the early heights of the heat wave and immediate indian response hell, frank's character came off as really wasted. i get why he was spotlighted but it's quite frustrating

Serf posted:the movie ain't bad for that. it loves some shirtless momoa. dude takes off his shirt in the beginning and some rando norwegian woman picks it up and smells it. then in the completely pointless sea rescue scene he takes it off again in the middle of the storm (after smashing a liquor bottle on the pier in slo-mo). its honestly hilarious That poo poo rules. The icelanders treating aquaman as a god was great and I wish that was a big part of every superhero movie because that's what they are Also "close your eyes and think of 9/11 " is the funniest loving thing 1) in a movie that recreated a way worse 9/11 and 2) normal people.shoupdnt give a poo poo about 9/11 but media people are obsessed with it so it makes sense to tell some extra to do
