  1. Yes, but it isn't exactly comforting that his "least" is also his most recent. Oh well, most of TDKR blame could be put on shitty Goyer story. Now Nolan is free from Goyer and can go back to making masterpieces. Bring on Interstellar!
  2. I hope the show begins with the Thomas and Martha Wayne murders and GCPD issuing a manhunt for Joe Chill. And that's when things start going to shit for Gotham.
  3. I hope Nolan never makes a movie as thoroughly disappointing as this one ever again.
  4. Find it incredibly cool that the actress playing Melinda May (Ming-Na), is the voice of Mulan- Fa Mulan is an agent of SHIELD? Why, of course!
  5. Dragon, BH6, Laika's The Boxtrolls and Mr. Peabody and Sherman. Next year's competition looks far stronger than this year, which is basically Frozen vs. TWR.
  6. If they wanted to cut out an entire sideplot or scenes whose absence from the film would not render the rest of the movie senseless then it is totally alright. Again, the Cinema Paradiso analogy holds, where almost a half hour's worth of the film was cut out because it focused on a secondary plotline(the romance) and made THAT plotline the crux of the film instead of the primary plotline(the relationship between the protagonist and the projectionist). Majority of the people I know who have seen both versions of the film far prefer the edited version because it is more seamless and focused than the uncut version. Heck, the uncut version was a box office disappointment when it was first released, and then when they released the edited version in theaters, that was a huge hit. If the studio thought those 20 mins of Snowpiercer unnecessarily complicated the story and characters and/or dragged the film down, and/or took away from the main point of the film, then they are well within their rights to have those scenes removed for smoother and crisper storytelling. Don't know how accurate that "film should be understood by audiences in Iowa.. and Oklahoma" quote is. Seems splintered and slightly out of context to me. Could just be a classic case of online blogs making a mountain out of a molehill.
  7. Maybe they only edited out the extraneous parts. Remember that there are movies like Cinema Paradiso where most people much prefer the edited version to the uncut version.
  8. Why can't the upper classes just detach the tail carriages containing the lower classes once they begin to revolt?
  9. Bet he now regrets rejecting the Gambit role that was written specifically with him in mind for X3 and scrapped once he refused due to the character being similar to Sawyer. Heck, a Holloway Gambit would have greatly improved that wreckage of a movie.
  10. Malavita is a far better title. I hate it when movies change cool titles to generic ones. Or ones that plain suck(ew @ Tangled!)
  11. I have a thing for redheads and JC is smexy but it's weird that I still don't think of her as a redhead first. Probably because my first major exposure to her was in The Help, and it's hard to forget that Southern blonde bombshell with her radiant face and tussled blonde locks- However, I think she would make for a great Poison Ivy, if they ever went for a darker version of the character on film.
  12. Have you watched The Family? Her role is supposedly darker than her usual fare(high school cheerleader fallen from grace).
  13. I think he would have preferred Tom Hiddleston in her place.
  14. Damn she's cool. I haven't seen many interviews of hers. Is she usually this awesome?
  15. It would be more epic if she breaks Thelma Ritter's record for most noms without wins and THEN go on to win!
  16. Yeah, Miyazaki has had as many "last" films as Cher's "farewell tours".
  17. This is a fun little series. Love the Greek mythology ties. Hope this squeaks out enough to guarantee another sequel.
  18. Don't forget Detective Rene Montoya from Batman: The Animated Series.
  19. Timberlake + JLaw/Emma Stone combo would shit all over Francaway.
  20. Yikes at poor Newman! How many noms has AA received so far? Hustle seems to be another win-less nom so far.
  21. C'mon Frozen! I cannot believe Disney Animation has not won this even ONCE so far! Ridiculous.
  22. I want Amy Adams to set a new record for most noms without a win.
