  1. Not at all. I don't know anyone who has seen it, and I haven't seen it myself, so all I know about it is that critics hate it. I might agree with them too, I'll know soon enough.
  2. Critics are biased, just like everyone else. Every now and again their bias or preference lines up with yours, or mine, and we're able to hate on things together. But no they don't "stand up" for anything, other than the kinds of movies they personally enjoy. Which is fine, but it's not objectively better than what anyone else enjoys.
  3. A few jokes in the first one fell flat, but the ones that landed were great ("... I see the arm's grown back..."). More than the actual jokes though, I just loved the charm and visual creativity. I hope the sequel at least keeps those.
  4. True, but to be fair, some markets refused to screen the movie because of that. This "controversy" is even smaller, and will cost WB nothing.
  5. Honest question: how many guys are actually upset about these screenings? I've seen way more people upset about the backlash then I've seen actual backlash.
  6. Mark Kermode's review: While he didn't like it, he doesn't think it's quite as bad as most critics do. He gives comedy films a very basic 6 Laughs Test, which Baywatch only just failed.
  7. This BO should be interesting. How far can The Rock's star power and 90s nostalgia carry this film? These reviews are not good at all.
  8. Finally saw it! Enjoyed it too. I feel about this the exact way I feel about Don't Breathe: the first two acts are much better than the third, but the dip doesn't kill the overall experience.
  9. I hope Zemeckis doesn't get it. His current run is uninspired to say the least; his last 6 features were The Polar Express (found it boring), Beowulf (hated it), A Christmas Carol (hated it), Flight (was okay), The Walk (also okay), and Allied (boring as fuck).
  10. Seeing as this probably won't make enough for a sequel (and Disney will take Aladdin off Ritchie), does this mean we finally get The Real RocknRolla?
  11. I'm a fairly recent anime fan; Hunter x Hunter blew my mind and I've been slowly going through all the critically acclaimed shit since then. I've seen art for Fate/Zero floating around online but I never connected it to King Arthur, but I'll check it out!
  12. Before it was generic and overdone, that aesthetic was very distinctly Blade Runner.
  13. Now I'm curious, what made the original a classic? All I know about the legend is that Arty pulls a sword out of the stone and then hangs out with David Beckham, and this version has both those things.
