Precisely. post-production 3-d effects are just not the same, imho--and will never justify my coin for seeing it as thus.Quote:

It's not the cost. It's the tepid difference. I've seen movies like Tron and stuff in 3D, and was completely underwhelmed. Clearly post-production 3D is mediocre compared to GOOD 3D.Quote:

I'm really not sure why people are so hung up on Rey's success. It's fighting on a shitty desert planet and ......... THE FORCE! it's stronger with her. get over itQuote:

It was one of my issues with the movie, that and they seemed to attack the death planet with 20 X-wings lol.Quote:

The biggest reason why Episode 7 is NOT fantastic (good, great even, but not fantastic), is because it's a rehash. The reason why fans of 4-6 love it so much is because they literally tried to cram all of 4-6 into 1 movie.
-There's a desert planet with a marooned child stuck on it with a "trusted" guardian
-Said child learns the ways of the force over the course of the movie
-Home of said child is attacked by the bag guys and decimated, everyone is killed
-Escape abroad the Millennium Falcon
-There's a forest/green planet. There's an ice planet
-There's a gigantic superweapon that is the lynchpin of the bad guy's might
-Landspeeder turned on its side
-Droid entrusted with a crucial piece of information that HAS to make it to the good guys at all cost
-Millennium Falcon has problems
-Holochess
-Shooting at TIE fighters in the Falcon
-Tongue-in-cheek joke about a trash compactor in a scene so similar to the original that the computer console is identical
-Sarlacc eats a TIE fighter
-Main protagonist fights lightsaber that previously belonged to forebearers
-Bad guy wears a mask with a voice-synthizer
-Han is betrayed by someone he trusts
...do you really need me to go on?
No, because I quit reading after the 1st sentence but did read the last. Kind of like 99% of your posts. Anybody that starts with that doesn't deserve my time. Maybe that's why I still take up for you, I don't read all of your bullshit lol.Quote:

I call it like I see it, and this movie--especially after a 2nd view, just seems like a rehash on every level.
isn't that sorta the whole point of the story? that they cannot escape their destiny?
Deadpool 8/10
Great movie, Go see it.
Have not laughed that hard in a long time.
PS Kingsman > ep7
I would like to but it has not been released for legal viewing in North America.... :suspect:Quote:

Surprised to read all the love on Kingsmen. I thought it was good, I wasn't overly-impressed though.
I haven't seen ep7 yet. Really wanted to. Maybe I'll try and make it out this weekend.
Deadpool looks funny. I hope the previews haven't ruined all the funny parts.
Not by a long shot.Quote:

The next will determine success, or failure imo.

Deadpool 12 out of 10.
I absolutely loved the movie. The one liners, the gratuitous violence, all of it.
Yeah, saw Deadpool on Valentines day. It was really great.
Still need to see Ep7... even my parents have seen it. Ugh.
Martian. Good stuff
Pixles.
7/10
it got really bad reviews but I thought it was pretty funny. :dontknow:
turbo kid
10/10
I thought it was pretty good, too.Quote:

7/10. it was very ok. could have been better but I'm not sure how. director/writers were smart to keep Ben Affuck from talking to much. I would not expect to see him in the sequel.
I have read nothing but bad reviews about it. I think the whole concept is stupid, but I digress...
It's not like this is an original idea or something. Batman basically becomes a shitty Ironman and like everyone else uses Kryptonite to fight Superman.Quote:

Yeah, I understand it's not an original idea. I thought it was stupid when I heard of it back in the day too. I'm not even like a big superman nut-swinger... I just think the concept falls apart.Quote:

Well Aquaman was what I'd call a "cameo" along with the Flash and Cyborg. however Wonder Woman is a full on character in the movie.Quote:

I liked Batman v Superman. Its not a great movie but its a good movie with action that deserves to be seen on the big screen.
The version of the characters they portray will not be to everyone's liking. The more you cling to a specific version of either characters the "THE" version the lower the chances that you will like this movie. I personally am open to different interpretations and can enjoy them all.
In my opinion its the Best(aka closest to the comics) version of batman that we have seen.
I have seen several reviews where the reviewer bitched about the lack of plot. I really have to wonder about them. My only guess is that they are not picking up on the bits that show how much of the plot is driven by Lex and not just random events. IMO the "dream" sequence in the middle is not a dream. I believe its a vision sent from the future. Lots of nice bits for fans to pickup in that sequence that tell us who the villain(s) for the Justice League movies will be.
imdb is giving a 7.5 so can't be all bad I guess. Mifght try and get out to see this weekend.
Injustice: Gods Among Us type thing?Quote:

BVS: battle of the orphans about 6/10. Affleck sucks as batman and bruce wayne. He's better than Bale & Clooney--not as good as Kilmer, nowhere near as good as Keaton. Arguably the best things about the movie were Gal Gadot, Diane Lane & Amy Adams. I don't think Henry Cavil is bad, but the writing they gave him to work with his horrible. WTF does Superman need to carry the spear? Why can't WW's amazonian prowess hurl it at doomsday? Why is superman miraculously always there to save lois every freaking time, including when he can't even hear her voice? At least Superman 1-2 got it right when he DIDN'T save Lois. And there's no teaser after the credits, so don't bother.
I disagree with Alan. Best batman is Burton batman. I get that the comics changed & became darker, and the newer movies reflect this. That's fine...but the dudes they're getting to play batman suck. I doubt we'll ever see another movie that's as awesome as Batman Returns. Pffeifer, Keaton, Walken, DeVito...that's almost impossible to top.
