MrPink Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 The 12:20am still doesn't have a single seat sold. Not sure what the theater was expecting when they programmed a movie targeted squarely at a teen audience at 12:20 in the night. A horny couple with an empty theater to themselves.

MrPink Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 (edited) People keep riding on EoT's opening 5 minutes and ending but I loved both. The opening 5 minutes are the best piece of world-building since Pacific Rim's and the ending is so amazingly emotional because we've bonded with Cage and Emily Blunt's character. I should specify a bit, I enjoy the first few minutes quite a bit, but when the actual actual plot starts in London, was a bit awkward I felt.

Mulder Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 EoT's only major problem is that it tells instead of shows a bit too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't think the ending was particularly emotional, partially because it felt like a huge cheat . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrPink Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 EoT's problem is that it's just as not as awesome as the other Tom Cruise/Brendan Gleeson movie. Mission Impossible 2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After seeing the characters die so many times it was nice to have that happy ending with no strings attached. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think I like PR more than this, which, given your reactions to both, means you're probably thinking a big giant WTF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grim22 Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 "Pacific Rim Guardians of the Galaxy is this generation's Star Wars" -Devin Faraci This is what he has been pushing a lot in the past few weeks. Apparently, the only thing that is not this generations Star Wars is the actual Star Wars series, which sucks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klingo Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Looks like we're on the right path to eventually building ride-able mechs. If we ever accomplish that, I'm joining the military no questions asked. Maybe in the future it will look like this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
