Yeah I laughed out loud when I saw the thread title and clicked on the third page only for something about Han and cyberstalking to jump out at me. Never change BOT.

Yes. 

No. 

Maybe?

Yes. Since before, even. 

Dunno?

Not my tempo. 

Wat?

No. 

Yes!

I'm presuming the Wat is directed at KONG? I was trying to make it all rhyme but basically KONG had a great third act but before that the only thing worth a damn was Reilly. Like even the monkey himself sucks prior to the last half hour

[The Futurist]

People who have a hard on for Logan are those who don't care for superheroes most of the time.

 

The less superhero DNA your movie has, the more it will please them.

 

Logans s script was kinda weak and very run-of-the-mill, the kind of script you had in those Jean Claude Van Damme movies in the 90's, your standard road movie with every trope from the genre.

The X-Men mythology back drop that allowed this story to happen was a giant, incoherent mess.

 

But Jackman looked old & ill & powerless and there was plenty CGI blood splatters. ( KEWL !)

And Picard s condition was even worse, he coughed a lot (KEWL !)

 

Oh, and the first word Logan says in the movie is Fucking something, fuck , fuckitty fucking fuck something (KEWL !)

 

B(R)illiant.

[baumer]

How can there be 5 pages of discussion when the movie hasn't even opened yet?

'Member BatB? It's not discussion, it's a burning fire.

Big drops for PR, GITS, Kong, Life, and CHIPS. Gifted is getting about 150 more theaters than anticipated, and Zookeeper's Wife crosses 1k theaters this weekend. I'm assuming this is the final expansion for T2.

Nah, I must've forgotten a line. KONG was okay, I wouldn't get riled up about it at all.

I didn't realize Case for Christ was in that few theaters. Pure Flix lost a lot of their pull last year

Guess starpower really is dead. The son of God can't even get butts in the seats anymore. 

[That One Girl]

Wtf who thought it was a good idea to bring 3 year old girls to this movie.
