May 2017 was equally bad.

January 2015 was a really dark time for @Blankments

 

Speaking of @Blankments, today I made the declaration that Neveldine/Taylor are greater than Lord/Miller.

*has no idea who they are, googles them*

 

*sees that their resume includes Jonah Hex, Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, and Gamer*

 

I can see why you like them.

Reviews better than expected - but it will all come crashing down when the American re(tard)viewers start chiming in - as has happened so many times before.

 

Hopefully I'm wrong though and most of the reviews so far are American? Are they?

Yep.  We're good .

 

Hail Besson.  Modern masterpiece.

#LordMiller got fired from Han Solo.

It's going to be weird when @That One Guy sees it and realizes he doesn't like it too much.

You're kidding, right?

That was June.  Goddamn it CJohn, your dates are wrong.

You watch too many movies considering your 80% dislike ratio. That's why you are stressed. The cure is not more sleep.

 

The cure is more Nolan

Of course. Why didn't I think of that before? I could just put Nolan masterworks on repeat until I reached my annual film quota. Brilliant.

I can guarantee, for a 100% fact, that I will like it .

 

Wanna bet on it?  I already bet @baumer that Valerian's open weekend will be 2.5x Girls Trip OW.

But does the Tomato Law apply when one of the first reviews shown says "Razzies 2017 front runner"?

 

Except that same guy said this:

 

 

So his critic credibility is pretty questionable, since A:C was none of those things.

Hopefully not 1 grand.

I agree with him (mostly) on A:C. Let's not go down this path again.

Nah, the winner gets the same as my bet with Baumer: They get to customize the other's profile (signature, profile pic, display name, etc.).

He didn't like A Cure for Wellness.  Fucking Dane DeHaan hater.

ACFW isn't good at all.

A Cure for Wellness (2017), directed by visionary auteur Gore Verbinski is one of the best movies of the year so far.  I expect Valerian to be even better.  Hail Dane DeHaan.

[filmlover]

@That One Guy obviously wants to be Dane DeHaan when he grows up.

 

Hard to believe he's 31 in real life.
