grey ghost Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 yes ROTS is the worst of the prequels. It has the actual story of Anakin turning to the dark side and does it in an extremely laughable way All three prequels make a mockery of Vader and Star Wars in general. But ROTS is the only one that doesn't feel like it's made for 8 year olds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan Hunt Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Brad Bird. Clooney is gonna be fine. Bird well too. He'll just make a couple Pixar movies and everyone will remember how amazing he is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim22 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 see also: Star Trek Into Darkness But STID was not grimdark, far from it. The trailers made it seem that way the same way the Ultron trailers teased a major dark moment for the Avengers team. The actual movie didn't have that much danger or high stakes in it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grim22 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Bird well too. He'll just make a couple Pixar movies and everyone will remember how amazing he is Doesn't matter. Even if Finding Dory is a masterpiece and the best movie ever made in the history of movies, Andrew Stanton will still be the guy behind John Carter granted Tomorrowland isn't as big a bust as John Carter was.

But ROTS is the only one that doesn't feel like it's made for 8 year olds. Considering the original trilogy had that sense of being made for 8 year olds, that just makes RotS even worse. But STID was not grimdark, far from it. The trailers made it seem that way the same way the Ultron trailers teased a major dark moment for the Avengers team. The actual movie didn't have that much danger or high stakes in it. Well, except for a guy's head getting crushed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MovieMan89 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 This Pirates of the Carribean talk... I don't remember enough of DMC and AWE to even comment Not even the ending spectacle of AWE? Like this scene: Knightley's "FI-RAH!!", slow-mo, exploding staircases, flames, wooden shards of death all around, swelling score. Fucking epic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomorrowland cost 190M and passed 200M WW this weekend, probably won't go much far. I would say it is a bomb in the same territory as John Carter. Bird is lucky he has Ghost Protocol otherwise he would be on the same boat. Also, John Carter >>>>>>> Tomorrowland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewy Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 People who talk about how much they hate blockbusters being family-friendly are the worst, btw. Like kids shouldn't be able to enjoy big dumb movies with the rest of us 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TServo2049 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 I haven't seen DMC or AWE since theaters. I remember liking DMC, but then I realized it wasn't as good as I thought. AWE I was disappointed with from the start, at the time I wanted to see Jack, Will, Elizabeth, Chow Yun Fat and Keith Richards team up with all the other pirates for a big Return of the King battle with the East India Company, Will and Elizabeth get married and all the ends get tied up. No crab lady, no curse on Will, none of that shit. AWE was too long, too bloated and unsatisfying (kind of a theme for May 2007). Pearl is still untouchable in my mind. I still want the snappy, fun further-adventures sequels I envisioned in my mind in 2003, not the bloated epic saga prophecy back-to-back mega sequel bullshit we got.
