  1. wow just came back from Wonder Woman That middle act, so well done. I was legit near-screaming during some sequences. Kudos to the team! I went with a group of friends and we were really into it, lots of great jokes in this movie, they all landed. The action sequences, especially near the middle (you know which ones), are some of the best I've seen coming from the superhero genre. Chris Pine is a boss. However, I wasn't a fan of the beginning, felt a bit off, but once it gets going, this movie truly is a roaring success.
  2. With that new Black Panther poster, one thing's for certain: Warner Brother's DC marketing team is leagues ahead of Marvel Studios'
  3. You know what they say, "never trust anyone over 300". ... all is revealed
  4. 2014 is the best blockbuster year for me, by far X-Men: Days of Future Past Guardians of the Galaxy Interstellar Edge of Tomorrow Captain America: The Winter Soldier Big Hero 6 All great movies in their own rights (not just fun blockbusters)... in my opinion. And that's without even mentioning the good non-blockbuster movies that came out that year Whiplash (best movie of the year) The Grand Budapest Hotel Nightcrawler Birdman The Imitation Game Gone Girl Predestination Coherence (2014 US) The Raid 2 Under The Skin (2014 US) John Wick All lovely movies. Overall, a great year
  5. So this is GOTG2's first sub-$1M day But it's already sitting at $359M so yeah, hardly a problem
  6. Every movie's 1st wednesday it's the same tune -- "WHAT THE DROP??!! #CRUMBLING #CANCELALLPROJECTS" After a slew of over-predictions on Tuesday Every time. These forums are hilarious
  7. @damnitgeorge08 You put The Incredible Hulk outside the MCU? I mean, I know some people like to consider it separate, but it really isn't. It's very much part of it. You forgot Rogue One under Star Wars I wasn't aware that the third Hobbit was named... whatever name it is you gave it It's called battle of the five armies -- BotFA Dredd, which deserves a 19 out of May...
  8. That's... exactly what I'm saying Star Wars Episode V is to Episode IV what a part 2 is to a part 1 my friend A direct sequel, with the same antagonist. As for LOTR, Peter Jackson never claimed that TTT was an "entirely different" movie than FOTR. ROTK either. They could have named them LOTR part 1, LOTR part 2, LOTR part 3, they didn't because they gave them their respective book titles, but they could have and it certainly would have worked. They have the same antagonist, it makes perfect sense that TTT is part 2 of the series. It's the part where Marvel Studios act as if Infinity War Part 2 is gonna be an entirely different movie that bugs me, when we all know it's not gonna be the case. It's gonna be a classic two-parter, they just want to distance themselves away from it because of its bad public perception right now I guess the same will happen to Justice League?
  9. Let's be honest here, Infinity War Part 2 is Infinity War Part 2 That part about them being "distinct" movie is most likely a marketing pull, seeing as currently, part 1 and part 2 movies aren't "in", they're out, they're not cool at all They're simply camouflaging it The 2 movies will have the same antagonist (does that remind you of a certain end to a hugely popular series, comprised of a part 1 and a part 2, and which have the same antagonist?), that alone tells us a lot on their intentions. Not that I'm complaining, of course. I will be there on OW
  10. So it seems like we have an outlier here on the US vs Australian box office performance @DeeCee just how outlier is WW's OW compared to what it should have been? I recall about $85M was the ceiling, technically. From that point on, if a movie wants to be a real outlier, it'll have to be even more of an outlier than WW to win the outlier crown
  11. I watched Evil Dead (1981) when I was 4 Let's just say I had relentless nightmares for years. Kept me from enjoying horror movies pretty much all my teenage years. My parents let me watch anything, at any age. Not sure if that's good or bad
  12. X-Men: The Last Stand Sometime in 2006. I was 17 at the time I didn't like it
