Her acquiring her Powers later without being with them when the accident occurred is another baffoon way of fucking up a simply story..

Kind of took away the bonding experience of all four getting their powers together.

Tusk features Johnny Depp in what seems like a proto #Mortdecai role.

#mortdecai was decent. thought it was a fun time. I would rather watch 100 hours of 9/11 footage than watch tusk again.

Kevin Smith is the best natural story teller Ive ever seen. That man has a gift. You can just ask him a question and he could reply with an hour narrative, 3 acts, bringing jokes full circle and all. 

 

We'd all be better off if he just stuck to his podcast and left the filmmaking to filmmakers

Michael B. Jordan casting had nothing to do with this bombing or not. People need to get their shit together. Now everyone, look at this gif:

Fuck the weekend. This is the real deal.

Well, since CJ insisted to bring it up:

this is why I tend to hang out at James's house more than CJ's......

Say what you guys want but Clerks is an A movie. 

 

I also really enjoyed Red State and Tusk.

[K1stpierre]

Aaaaaaw. I really fudged that pooper up . I tried getting fancy with my spoiler tags.

[Orestes]

I like Clerks, Chasing Amy, and Mallrats. Don't even care.

[grey ghost]

Btw, it is obvious why this bombed: poor marketing campaign, poor reviews, bad buzz, movie is a stunning piece of shit. It is pretty much the same set of reasons every time a big movie bombs.

 

and "alienated the fanbase with pointless changes".

 

That never helps.

Hoping I get back in time from The Gift to catch the True Detective finale tonight.

I enjoy all the Askewniverse movies and Zack and Miri. Z&M seemed to show he was able to leave the Askewniverse behind and still make enjoyable, "Kevin Smith" movies, but then the 2010s happened.

Oh how is The Gift? Someone needs to tell me cause I've heard good things about it!

[MrPink]

More like get back in time to watch the real Fantastic Four, right?

 

[CoolioD1]

why are theaters even showing movies during the true detective finale? doesn't everyone wanna know what those two guys are gonna do, or the guy who shot that guy who's in league with the other guys who stole stuff from guys 20 years ago. or the guy who's after the other guy because he fucked over the former guy?

Why bother showing movies at all if everything is fucking?

[Rman823]

Is it just me or did Season 2 go by faster than 1 ? I forgot last week that it was already episode 7.

[CoolioD1]

I was gonna say at least clerks is peak "annoying 90s generation x bullshit" but then I remembered Reality Bites so Kevin Smith doesn't even have that going for him.

How does changing Johnny Storms race add to the mythos?

 

Seems like a controversial gimmick some Hollywood idiot came up with just to put their shitty stamp on classic comics Jack Kirby actually put effort into.

They chose a good actor to play the role... There's absolutely nothing wrong with that
