  1. The scene at the bar in TDKR alone makes her the best.
  2. Sony's lucky they released ASM on a Tuesday. Otherwise they'd be enduring headlines about ASM2's OW being 10mil lower than the first.
  3. I couldn't believe how contrived the whole thing was. Everybody works at Oscorp, Oscorp is not only involved in genetics and military applications, but also controls all of New York's power supply, and now, by the time the next movie rolls around, we'll have been introduced to at least 7 villains created by Oscorp.
  4. I've been told that the kids in junior high and high school these days use Twitter more than Facebook. If there's any demographic that wouldn't be put off by a second Spider-man series so soon after the last, it's them.
  5. I didn't say they haven't written bad movies.
  6. TDK Inception Memento Batman Begins Insomnia The Dark Knight Rises The Prestige
  7. I feel like Orci and Kurtzmann receive a little too much flack. They've done good work on Star Trek and the Mission Impossible they wrote, so it's not like they're ALWAYS bad writers. Edit: random, I know.
  8. You can't possibly blame him for Man of Steel. He was an executive producer which means he was mostly hands-off. He said as much.
  9. Probably a good barometer since word of mouth will be similar.
  10. 1. X-men: DOFP 2. Dawn of the Apes 3. Interstellar 4. Inherent Vice 5. Mockingjay 6. Gone Girl 7. Guardians of the Galaxy 8. Neighbors 9. 22 Jump Street 10. Godzilla
  11. Outside of the rock creatures, which were essential for logical purposes, nothing really "wonky" about it, unless you mean that it wasn't really a crowd-pleaser, which is true.
  12. Isn't The Other Woman basically the same plot as John Tucker Must Die?
  13. Fury's going to be a minor bust I think. David Ayer is hit and miss as a director.
  14. I'd argue that it only seemed so awkward or forced because most people these days are overly cynical. All I thought was "huh...weird...but good for him." We're too judgemental towards celebrities.
  15. They'd been together for months by that point. While I personally wouldn't act in such a manner, my argument is that the reaction was pretty extreme considering what he did wasn't exactly controversial. There's "yeah, Cruise is a quirky guy," and then there's the reaction he received after that.
  16. The silly thing is that the couch jumping incident is not what should have tarnished his image. The scientology stuff, yes. The prescription pill thing, sure. But getting excited about love? The media/public reaction to that was strange in my opinion.
  17. Agreed. At the very least they need to differentiate between the midnight numbers and the Thursday evening numbers. In reality the three-day number is going to be 80-85mil, not 90-95mil.
  18. All this needs is a talented director like Warcraft has. That's really all the genre needs to start doing well. Same thing happened with comic-book movies.
  19. Noah was pretty dang good and certainly retained the spirit, message, and most everything else of the original story. I find it hard to believe WOM is that bad outside of the uber radical type. The acting is great and I like how the additions to the story (Watchers, Ila, Tubal-Cain) serve a practical and/or thematic purpose.
  20. That acceptable hatred is still mostly imagined. They have a persecution complex. Besides, the only Christians that are reviled are the bigoted ones.
