Chezza Posted April 19, 2023 John Wick 4. Action packed, lots of good shooting and melee scenes. I swear they keep amping up the action, where I start to lose focus like it's white noise. Someone should make a 10 hour loop of John Wick rolling down the stairs. Also a video game edit showing his health bar but uses modern Doom mechanics where his health regenerates upon kills. How else could he withstand all that punishment and continue demolishing hundreds of enemies? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post

Master O Posted April 19, 2023 (edited) Back to the Future movie trilogy. Rick and Morty are just a cheap imitation of that trilogy's main characters... Edited April 19, 2023 by Master O 1 Quote Share this post Link to post

DeathWalkerGT Posted April 26, 2023 John Wick 1 and 2. I was a bit bored so I said to myself... "Why not watch both of the movies in one go ?" Needeless to say that I did not regret it. Maybe in due time I'm gonna watch the other 2 as well... 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Rudolph Posted April 28, 2023 (edited) I am about done with Babylon 5 (the show, that is). It is such an odd beast: the episode that felt like the big climactic finale happened fairly early on in the penultimate season, then the rest of the season combined with the fifth and final season basically feel like one long epilogue - not to mention the half a dozen TV movies and the short-lived spin-off. Not that I am really complaining, since there were plenty of loose ends to tie off and the show does not feel like it is outliving its welcome, but still, that is most unusual and I do not remember ever seeing something like this.

ducon Posted April 29, 2023 (edited) Don’t worry, darling, that’s between Matrix, Desperate housewives and a Philip K. Dick novella with a teaspoon of Edward scissorhands. Edited April 29, 2023 by ducon 2 Quote Share this post Link to post

More like The Stepford Wives Meets Get Out! I was pleasantly surprised by the movie, as I came in with little expectations and little knowledge of the gossip. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Captain red pants Posted April 29, 2023 (edited) Dungeons and Dragons: Honour among Thieves It's a pretty good action adventure film that I'd put it on par with the original Brendan Frasier Mummy movie. Does a decent job of using D&D-isims such as lore, spells, factions and locations to tell it's story (which shouldn't be a big deal, but lol the last time they tried to make a D&D movie). Less post marvel banter then you might think (but there's still a bit of it), a surprisingly large number of practical costumes for some of the beast races an the like. I had a good time.

As an added bonus for French-speaking viewers, Frédéric Molas (also known as Le Joueur du grenier, i.e. the French Angry Video Game Nerd) and his sidekick/co-writer Sébastien Rassiat reportedly voiced a couple of minor characters in the French dub!

MrFroz Posted May 20, 2023 (edited) Recently saw Joker (2019) and The Batman (2022). I liked the former one more but the later was better than I expected. Edited May 20, 2023 by MrFroz 0 Quote Share this post Link to post

Yeah I was surprised by the Batman, it nailed the atmosphere of the darker Batman comics. The ending wasn't great though, felt pretty anti-climactic but overall it well exceeded my (fairly low initially) expectations. Joker I actually couldn't watch, the movie just made me feel really sad. When he was showing his card to people it reminded me too much of someone I know. I get what the movie was going for, society's misunderstanding or ignorance of mental conditions created the monster but it hit a little too close to home for me and I couldn't finish it. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post

I hear you there. I once saw a movie based on the life of Brad Cohen, a teacher with Tourette's Syndrome, and there were many instances where he explained that he had a neurological condition and that was the reason for his vocal and motor tics. I have some nervous tics myself as well as autism spectrum disorder and I can relate to the Joker's struggle with laughter because it happens to me, although in my case it is more like silently grinning rather than laughing out loud. I was able to finish it tho, I think the movie's got a really good pacing and this Joker feels more to me like someone very different than anyone I've met personally, yet I still know there are people who wake up every day to a living hell and really struggle with life on their own. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post

It was my son I was thinking of, he's also on the spectrum, smiles and giggles when he's really nervous or in a confrontation. I worry when he's older some people won't understand he can't help it and just think he's taking the piss. I may try the movie again at some point, it seemed well written and acted. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Rudolph Posted May 23, 2023 @MrHellstorm17 Why? I know it was the subject of a lawsuit for plagiarism by John Carpenter, but I do not know about the movie itself. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post

It features rather primitive plot; anti-scientific nonsense that constantly happens in the movie; hyper-masculine image for Guy Pearce's character that really doesn't suit the actor and so on. The movie isn't complete trash, it's still watchable. Nevertheless it's quite an unremarkable spectacle 0 Quote Share this post Link to post

SealSpace Posted May 23, 2023 And also Antebellum. Also can't believe I forgot to mention about the Super Mario Bros film itself a month ago lol. Best animated of the year (with only Hayao Miyazaki's upcoming final film "How Do You Live?" and your annual Doraemon films like the Doraemon Nobita's Sky Utopia for this year of 2023 being able to compete with it). 0 Quote Share this post Link to post

Poor John Carpenter has been trying to make a third installment of the Escape From series for years, yet those people could not even be bothered to at the very least ask for his blessing.

Jello Posted May 25, 2023 I watched Black Adam. I thought it might be kind of okay because although I generally don't like superhero movies, I do find Dwayne Johnson to be pretty enjoyable most of the time. It was just... not good. I would not recommend it. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
