The Futurist Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 Imagine thinking that filming an actor over-acting for 2hours, crying about how his mommy was bad to him in 3 different locations that could be your own flat to be the pinnacle of genre filmmaking in 2019. Imagine it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madhuvan Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 Just had an interesting observation, most of the actors that DC cast in lead roles cannot act. Dwayne Johnson, Jason Momoa and Gal Gadot are wooden. Henry Cavill is very limited. Wtf were WB thinking when casting them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did really like Korra but to me for a few reasons it did'nt toutch the OG series. It sucked they only had 10 episodes a season, we could have more character fleshed out with a bit more run time (or 1 storry over 4 season (40episodes total would have worked better for me I think). And my second complaint is that it took away a lot of the specialness of certain abilities like lighting and metal bending. To me it was strange so many people knew how to bend lightning whilst in the first series it was known you could make lighting but only the best of the best were able to do so, it felt like something special (and you needed inner balance). Metal a bit the same but that wasn't seen as possible so more people might descover they could so this makes a bit more sense. + the problem with a skill becoming main stream is that the power of that skill get drasticly reduced. That said I agree that korra was very good (8.8/10) and they took her to many interesting places. I would love a 3rd series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compare this to main franchise actors of MCU. Robert Downey Jr, Chadwick Boseman, Mark Ruffalo, Scarlett Johansson, Brie Larson have been nominated for Oscars. Chris Evans has shown his acting in many good movies. Chris Hemsworth and Chris Pratt while not the best are very good comedic actors. Karen Gillan, Zoe Saldana and Sebastian Stan are fantastic. Hell even Dave Bautista acts better than Gal and Dwayne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madhuvan Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 Jeremy Renner is also two time Oscar nominee. @TMP If Robert Pattinson is coming to DC then don't forget Ali is coming to MCU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also you used Dwayne Johnson as an example even though we haven't seen Black Adam yet, so not sure why Pattinson can't be included, unless he disproves your theory considering he's both a fantastic actor and the lead of DC's biggest upcoming movie, lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were having a discussion, as how TLJ reception affected SW. He said, "Star Wars fans don't deserve Rian. Disney can make all these films with 2nd tier directors" Now as a fan of TLJ, may be yes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good location for response. I shouldn’t have mentioned Rian in weekend in the first place, too tough for people to leave the topic alone. Speaking of Fanboy Wars, there are no more fanboy wars. For a war you need at least 2 groups of similar enough strength, and nobody is close to MCU. 60% of 2019 top 5, absolute dominance. Prepare for same feat in 2021. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCU is also directed by 2nd tier directors. But they don't subvert expectations just for fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
