Neither you nor I have any idea who's responsible for the material that bothers you. -
I'll always defend Lindelof. Always.
-
I'd pay to watch a Bishop and Ethan Mars adventure.
-
There've been two.
-
Excellent! Hopefully they don't release another trailer at all.
-
If you think Lindelof is solely responsible for the problems in PROMETHEUS, I've got some prime swampland in Florida to sell you.

Where was all this Ridley love six months ago?
-
I don't think there's much "negative publicity" except for us who follow box-office.
-
Now what other movie can I think of that you gave a B+ to?

Don't fall.

Science the shit out of this thread.

Young Dash was wrong. IS needed more science. And more fun, that's true.

Blanks' anthem during the moments when last year's nominees were announced: Darkness imprisoning me All that I see Absolute horror I cannot live I cannot die Trapped in myself Body my holding cell...

George Miller is widely loved and much admired by the Academy, plus I think there's a great deal of admiration for the perseverance and dedication needed to get the product done. The content may be unusual for traditional Academy bait, but as filmmakers, they all love a story about a passion project that turns out brilliantly.
-
It doesn't matter what you or I (or the critics think).
-
I think there's a great deal of FURY ROAD love with some Academy members. Moreso, arguably, than either IO or THE MARTIAN. (SW is a complete unknown at this point.)

TUCKER is very good. Doesn't break any amazing new ground, but it's a good glimpse at American idealism getting smashed by American corporatism.
-
I don't think there's any question these lists will mostly be Most Seen Movies, especially regarding the older films.

I'm in C+/B- territory. Solid enough, but it felt like it was the Cliff Notes version for a potentially deeper story. In particular, I felt Connolly's character wasn't developed nearly enough. The acting was all good, with Depp leading the charge -- that being said, it felt like a mostly one-note performance from him.

It didn't. It also wasn't very Robin Hood-y. These don't sound like they are either; they sound like lame efforts to inject "contemporary" franchises into this very old story. But that's how many execs think these days. They want another franchise and here's this property -- in the public domain, no less -- that practically everyone already knows about. And, in theory, someone could make a really cool, fun Robin Hood movie that would make a ton of money. In theory.

Near-universal recognition and he's in the public domain. That being said, every single one of these sound awful.

Oh man...
