90 with 12. Denis does it again.

[Firepower]

Mendelson is incompetent idiot.

Oh guess what, already a rotten. Guess what again, it's Scott Mendelson.

Mendelson is Armond 2.0 without Armond's charm, humor and iconic presence. 

 

So are BR20149 and Denis happening in BP and BD? :prayercircle:

Scott is not that bad. i often find myself agreeing with him. too many critics scream "masterpiece"...it just loses its meaning. not every freakin movie is outstanding.

 

still...excited to see this one. i loved the original

This movie's going to have 250+ reviews. You folks get far too worked up over a few negative write ups here and there.

It happens with every big movie. Endlessly frustrating

No one here is worked up. Its just funny the sheer amount of times hes the first negative. Honestly had a big giggle when first saw it.

Looks like it's on pace to be the best reviewed of its sub-genre since Snowpiercer.

 

Currently 85 at MC with 20 reviews. Snowpiercer finished with an 84.

 

David Edelstein is one of the three or four critics I like most. A little disappointed that he was 'meh' on it. But, hell, I don't always agree with him.

Yeah, I usually agree with him.

BR49 and DUNKIRK it seems will fight it out on the Vfx front. APES3 is third in line I think.

 

The academy does favor non-sequels. Best Vfx 2000-2016 (sequels in italics):

Gladiator

LOTR1

LOTR2

LOTR3

SM2

King Kong

Golden Compass

Benajamin Button

Avatar

Inception

Hugo

Life of Pi

Gravity

Interstellar

Ex Machina

TJB

 

Also Nolan has had Inception and Interstellar win the Vfx award so BR49 could edge it out even though it's a sequel.

Great reviews. Some are even calling it better then the original. Can't wait to see this next Friday.

People have their differing opinions. At least most critics so far are liking the hell out of it. It sounds really good too from their descriptions.

Warner Bros and Sony have a winner on their hands with BR2049.

Dunkirk isn't getting nominated for visual effects IMO, nor should it. BR2049 and Apes are likely the favorites.

Critic Consensus: Visually stunning and narratively satisfying, Blade Runner 2049 deepens and expands its predecessor’s story while standing as an impressive filmmaking achievement in its own right.

[The Futurist]

There is barely nothing in Dunkirk, VFX wise, what the frak are you all talking about ?

 

[Eevin]

TBH I think this is Fury Road all over again. Really great reviews and a lot of Oscar potential, but only so-so box office. I think we'll see similar DOM numbers ($150m-ish) which isn't great on a $185m budget.

Sony was behind this one too and it has amazing reviews.
