Last Film You Saw

Not watched a bloody film in months since I got back into gaming! Going to watch some pure trash tonight to get back into it. Final Destination 3 I reckon.

I can sort of see what you mean, but I don't agree wholly.

Gathegi's 'Mr Terrific' is... er, terrific, to a point and Hoult's version of 'Luthor' becomes compelling 90% of the time. I did like like this Corenswet portrayal of 'Clark Kent' as well.

If you're not a comic book fan, you won't understand this version as it draws from multiple genres, styles and arcs, so it will seem a "mess".

I will say some things definitely don't work, but much of it does and a second installment should start to streamline the depiction. In that way, Gunn's version is much like how he started with the "Guardians of the Galaxy" films.

I don't just mean the plot, the whole thing is childish and looks like it's been done for 10 year old kids.
Was looking forward to a genuine Superman reboot but ended up a parody. The fact that the best bits of the film are when utilising a CGI dog then that speaks for itself.

It's well known that it was made for kids in mind with the colour, hope and overcoming adversity.

That only changed under Snyder's vision, which I liked, slightly better.

Got to agree the dog is the best but just like my mad dog at home, there’s too many characters and they aren’t fleshed out well. Mr Terrific is probably the best of the bunch, I liked the guy playing Superman and his Clark is good as well but it tried to do too much, it’s like we jumped into something halfway through, I don’t want an origin story but Lex was just not right either. It was as all over the shop, tried to be like GOTG with the music and Mr Terrific fight as well.
I have to say Reeve is the best ever but I liked the Snyder verse and it’s world building, I don’t really know what’s going to happen with this new DCU.
 
Night on Earth, 1990.
Directed by Jim Jamoursh.


If you like good acting, dialogue driven offbeat story telling. It's really good.

Great performances from Winoma Ryder.
Roberto Benigni, had me crying with laughter.

Solid 8.7/ 10

You really are patronising shit . You don't debate you just try to obfuscate anyone the disagrees with you.
It's crap however you want to trump it up

What the fuck are you talking about?

During the pre-production it was asked of Gunn what the tone would be, he refused to state until about 10 months ago, when he and Corenswet started to talk about wanting Superman "not to scare kids" and that it was Corenswet who had his input about the 'silly suit/ wrestler' look. From there it was stated no graphic blood would be shown so the age licence could be lowered so KIDS COULD GO SEE THE FILM!

It's not my fault you haven't tracked the pre and post production talk on the film.

Wind your fucking neck in.
 
Going to watch Oppenheimer on Netflix tonight
Heard mixed reviews on it.much prefer a slow burner film to 90 minutes of non stop action.
3 hours long
