  1. If a gear sticks in a car while trying to do a turn, preventing the vehicle from operating as it should. That is a mere technical error. It's unfortunate, but it happens.
  2. Or even a 1 in a million technical error with a stunt. Sometimes accidents happen, and they are terrible.
  3. But! can prove entertaining as long as one prevents oneself from getting involved.
  4. I'm getting the distinct feeling Napoleon is either A.) having a game with us or B.) out of their mind.
  5. Forgive my ignorance, but I tend to get a bit confused about some movies being called remakes. From what I understand from briefly skimming, that this is supposed to be an adaptation of the novel, which has been adapted to film before. Is it still really considered a remake?
  6. All I can take away from this humiliating round for me is that I so nearly got perfect on Whiskey Tango Foxtrot.
  7. Yeah, the Maybe scene, and the more emphasis on Jor 'El being his moral compass, do taint how I view the movie, considering I barely recall such scenes. Unfortunately for me it's those few things that break the movie for me. That and the grey everywhere, the color palette puts me off. I've been thinking I should watch MoS again now that I've had time to remove it from its decisiveness, so perhaps I'll have another opinion now than 2 years ago.
  8. One. I'm surprised how civil this all is. Two. At the end of the day, why I don't like MoS, will always come down to Pa Kent. That Clarks morals come from not the Kent's but Jor El. Having not read a lot of Super Man comics outside of Death and Return, having only bits of the 90s animated and Richard Donner as sources, this feels jarring. The Pa Kent I know never seemed like the man who would say, let people die. The comparison I can put this to is like ASM movies. Where Uncle Ben's Death is a foot note. As a life long Spider-Man fan, that is frustrating since the death is so pivotal to his character. I know that as creators the people making an ASM (or MoS) may want to tell and change things because that is good storytelling. No one wants to tell the same story over and over again. But at times when I see small things, like the focus of both these movies shifting to our main characters biological parants, seem jarring to me. And I'd suspect a wider audience who only really knows them from previous films or TV. Thought I'd throw my opinions of MoS in here. I've loved reading everyone's so far.
