I remember going into the comic book thread to rant about how bad Man of Steel was and getting schooled pretty hard. Now I've come around and think MoS is a good movie that I just really don't like.

My favorite CineD memory was SMG stating that Battleship (the movie based on the board game) was an objectively better movie than The Avengers and multiple acolytes of his immediately agreeing.

Having only seen Avengers, that sounds plausible.

Avengers isn't very good.

As a kid I felt like number 4 was the best one and it just cratered really fast afterwards.

It might be related to how it was one of the first novels I read in english and so I had a few months advance on everyone at my school who were waiting for the french translation.

Where's a good place to start with Gundam? Just go for the original series and work my way through it all? I've not watched much anime but it's a series I've always been vaguely interested in.

Yeah, the original might have dated animation but it holds up in a lot of other ways and if you like you can just continue down the Universal Century timeline.

I started watching the Gundam shows in basically production order 10-15 years ago and it worked for me!

theres an extremely good chance theyre going with crazy john brown whos got some growing up to do because free state of jones starred matthew mcconaughey fairly straightforwardly portrayed the title character as a white dude who realizes that slavery and racism is bullshit and was either panned for being too boring or too racist because you see this actual historical person who led a counterinsurgency against the confederacy only to see it all collapse when the north wins the war and gives the rich assholes back their plantations is actually just an extremely problematic white savior

Doom Patrol is real good. For anyone who's wondering
The guy from The Mummy plays a dickhead NASCAR driver that becomes a robot
There's a lady who's a blob monster
There's a dude with a space ghost (not Space Ghost) inside him
There's a lady who has a very weird "what if multiple personalities but a superpower" deal
There's also Cyborg...
The leader of the group is Timothy Dalton playing bush-league professor x
One of the side characters is a non-binary sentient street
The main antagonist is a 4th-Wall breaking jerkoff played by the pilot from Firefly doing his best "Q from Star Trek" impersonation

The comic was great. I'll watch it when it's on something I can actually watch like Netflix or something.

I think Good Morning Vietnam is the only Vietnam War movie that treats the Vietnamese in a vaguely human way.

yeah i think even the heptapods are locked into their life paths, they have no choice in the matter.

they give humanity the tool that grants them access to their entire life's memories and allows for manipulations, for instance Amy Adams snagging a future memory and bringing it to the present, but the giving of the tool and the retrieval of the future memory is what always happened. the future never changed, Amy Adams "preventing" a world war by accessing a future memory is always what was going to happen. she was never not going to learn the language that gave her the ability to do that.

it's the scene of colin farrel catching the red ball in minority report "because it was going to fall" but spread out to feature-length. the ball was never going to fall, colin farrel is there to catch it.

Sounds very Slaughterhouse 5.

The character who survived in that scene did so by rolling slightly to the side while the other one kept running straight lol

It's entirely possible to make that scene convincing but they didn't do it

no, she falls into a crevice.

They actually run in a somewhat diagonal fashion, but the ship does not fall straight either. And it's so huge it's hard to gauge where to run from it.

Weird how no one ever makes this criticism of les mis but then most adaptations of les mis do all they can to avoid contextualizing what the gently caress is going on so they can pretend like the cop is nobly misguided rather than an idiot rube who kills himself when forced to acknowledge that he was the baddy all

Weird how this criticism never applies to les mis but then most adaptations of les mis go out of their way to avoid contextualizing what the gently caress is even going on post timeskip to instead handwring about how the cop is a noble honorable figure when he is in fact an idiot rube who kills himself rather than own up to the fact he's spent his entire life being a shithead and the guy he's been hunting down this whole time is an infinitely more noble person than any of the assholes who sign his paycheck

Les Mis is a different Revolution.
