It's the inevitable backlash to a rapidly changing world where populations are becoming more and more diverse, middle classes are either declining or remaining stagnant, and jobs are changing and/or being lost to automation and globalism (the more the world comes together, the better in my opinion, but yeah...people like their borders/walls/tribes). The last time this sort of technological renaissance happened we got two world wars and the Nazis.

It bums me out that the guy is apparently an asshole because damn he is funny on screen. -
This **** is Bananas: Rampage as WB 2018 DOM highest grosser

I think Aquaman will do sub-200 mil, so Fantastic Beasts is the one. -
A slew of that guys.

I loved Casey Affleck in 2007. His performances in Jesse James and Gone Baby Gone back to back floored me. In 2018? Not so much. He made an unlikable character more unlikable in Manchester and, through no fault of his own admittedly, he didn't have much to do in A Ghost Story. He lost the "exciting actor" label for me many years ago. It's not even the sexual harassment claims (I'm forgiving if it's a relatively one-time thing...as far as I know there's not an ongoing record of this), it's his career choices/screen presence of late.

It's not about that. Rampage has nothing to offer people outside of the Rock...again. People were still watching Jumanji just a few weeks ago. Giant apes? Giant lizards? People have seen it, and Rampage doesn't exactly offer any new twists. The moment with the giant wolf leaping at the helicopter is kinda cool, but otherwise it looks like shit.

The Informant was fun, but I found it not as entertaining as Ocean's 11 and not as important/accomplished as Traffic or Erin Brockovich.

Soderbergh is just one of those directors whose films have premises that just don't interest me. He's one of the best directors around and yet I've only seen half of his films. He hasn't made anything OMG great since the one-two-three punch of Traffic, Brockovich, and Ocean's 11.

Yup. I was always going to watch it cause Spielberg but I wasn't excited until that "dreamer" trailer.
