When I originally heard the argument that he did I thought they were getting up in arms about the dream sequence, but then I remembered the chase scene. Now a weak argument could be made that the villains GI Joe'd/A-Team'd their way to safety in the explosions but I didn't see any parachutes so I don't think that is the case.

For me the main problem with BvS was that we did not need the Lois Lane storyline AT ALL, it was basically a wikipedia summary of the other three storylines of Batman, Superman, and Lex Luthor. If that plot had been removed they could have easily trimmed 30 minutes off the run time. Also Eisenberg was horrible as Luthor, I've stated on the BvS thread that he was more in line to play the Marvel villain Arcade rather than Luthor. I liked the movie despite those issues and felt that the new performances by Affleck and Gadot were really good and got me excited for their individual movies, though I'm interested to see where Affleck takes Batman in his solo movie. As for people complaining about Batman killing people, that is a bunch of selective memory on people's parts in regards to his history. Batman has killed a BUNCH of people over the years. When he was first created almost 80 years ago he was shooting people point blank in the head on a regular basis or snapping people's necks on window sills. Even in the movies he was killing people, either through apathy or inadvertently. In the Batman he led numerous Joker henchmen to their deaths by dropping them from the sky as he cut the Joker's floats loose, then his actions led to the Joker plummeting to his death, Batman Forever saw him indirectly kill Two-Face by throwing a handful of coins at him while he was on a high ledge, much to the dismay of Robin, Batman Begins had him by proxy kill Ra's al Ghul, Dark Knight he directly killed Two-Face, and in Rises he indirectly led to the death of Talia. Also here are more inappropriate comic stills:

There are countless sites dedicated to covers that are funny in hindsight, many focusing on Olsen and Superman. DC at least has the ability to acknowledge their campy-ness in that when they released the great poster book displaying their memorable covers from the past 75 years featured many of these wacky covers like this: Or this: Also while not a DC comic, this cover will stand the test of time as being universally terrible:

Well c'mon, those two were REALLY lame.

I've liked the Suicide Squad trailers (though I haven't seen the most recent one) and they are pretty close to what the recent series have been, which have been fantastic. They aren't really designed to fight someone like Superman, but rather any of the off shoot villains being made by enemies domestic and foreign. One of the more recent stories involved them sneaking into either North Korea or Russia in order to stop them from further creating super robots. Other stories have included them basically wiping out the entire Super Dome because it had been overtaken by a techno-virus that mutated all of the people attending the football game. They aren't meant to be a deterrent for heroes like Superman or Wonder Woman, but rather they are the real line of defense against the stuff other organizations won't give the full measure to, so the line about Superman is basically a smoke screen to get the signoff for a black flag operation using Villains. As for Harley, she has had a similar style like in the film for a while now, usually mixing emo, roller derby girl, and various forms of her old harlequin style when she was introduced, so that is par for what it currently is in the comics. In regard to Doctor Strange and the Phase 3 films, I get why they are doing an origin for him as to casual fans, he's pretty unknown outside of the crossover storylines where he's in the douchebag club, The Illuminati. It's also been a quite a while since he's had his own solo series, and is really only getting one now because of the movie. Most of the time in the last sixteen years he has just been a side character or a smaller member in the larger teams that populate the Marvel universe, so it makes a lot of sense for him to have an origin film. For the other Phase 3 films, the Captain America and Thor threequels seem like they will continue the quality of the previous films, same for Guardians 2. Black Panther should have enough of an intro in Cap 3 to ease into his standalone movie and the Inifinity Wars movies will hopefully succeed where Age of Ultron faltered. The only ones that I am iffy on are Spiderman but I've read it's not another origin film so that's a plus, Ant-Man and Wasp because I don't know how those characters are going to integrate in the overall MCU; and Inhumans because they might be only slightly more known than Strange or when Guardians was first announced, but they do have a connection to Agents of S.H.I.E.LD. so that should help. Captain Marvel I don't know enough about outside of what I've read in crossover stories or Avenger stories to have an opinion on the movie.

Yeah I did that one week and it was way too tedious for me. The previous version was good if you could get in early enough because you picked 10 movies for the entire run in theaters. You then ranked them according to how you thought they would rank as the highest grossing for the season, if you were correct you got an extra million or so dollars I believe. You could change movies in your lineup so long as they had not been released yet and you could not pick movies that had been released already. It was pretty fun trying to guess how the movies would rank for the summer, I was dead right with Ted, Dark Knight Rises, and one other one I couldn't remember.

This is basically the equation used to budget Adam Sandler films, how much to set aside while being able to get most for our money. I still don't get how they find out which movie made the most for how many theaters it is in (the blue ribbon movie or whatever it's called) and I don't get how they decide how much money a certain film will be budgeted when you pick for your lineup as it seems completely arbitrary. It's a fun way to play but the rules could be a lot clearer liked the previous incarnation of the Summer Movie League where you just picked ten movies for the summer and the total box office for them is what you scored. The only problem with that one was that you had to sign up right when the season started in order to get the cream of the crop picks. The one year the show promoted it was the year that was frontloaded with hits like the Avengers, Men in Black 3, Prometheus, Brave, and Ted, so if you joined later in the season you were completely screwed with choices.

I had the weirdest feeling of hindsight listening to Jenner go on a tear about the "weirdos" that Samantha was hanging out with, followed by her saying she doesn't judge and people should just live their lives how they like.

I thought they did a decent job of portraying a storyline from a mediocre FPS, but the main selling point of how the film was shot along with the intense action made it pretty good for me. As far as the movie league goes, I'll remain middle of the pack for the season as the ones in the lead are way ahead of everyone else outside the top 10.

Okay I have to ask, were models making huge money in the 70s, as in enough to be able to retire in your 20s? I just don't get how Samanthaa can just walk away from her career which was apparently at its peak to what looks like to just go to discos and hit chairs with a brush. It's not like in the late 80s/90s where you had Cindy Crawford, Naomi Campbell, or Kate Moss, who were getting paid well with endorsements along with their modeling. Also, can I add that Super Mario Bros stole from this movie with the grandma robbing Caitlyn Jenner after appearing to be run over by a motorcycle, leading him to haphazardly move the woman he just thought was run over with no regard to her health. Also why did Samantha's friend want to hook up with the Indian as "repayment for the indignities they suffered in Roots?"

There was apparently one thing that she wouldn't clean.

The Fett movie I'm interested to see because I was always a fan of him as a kid since he had the coolest look next to Vader, an awesome ship, and in the video games he was always one of the toughest bosses. The expanded universe has done him some good service in building him up and he's always had the airs of a badass because in all of the galaxy, he's one of the few guys that always gave Han Solo pause, which is definitely something considering Solo always played it cool or knew how to handle a certain situation. It's also why I'm hesitant on the Solo film because Harrison Ford is that character and I really can't see anyone else doing it justice while Boba Fett is basically a blank canvas outside of the actors in Attack of the Clones, so there is more wiggle room to make that movie work.

Okay, holy shit. The opening credits alone make this movie insane with the top billed performers being the Village People, Steve Gutenberg, and introducing Bruce Jenner. Then you have Gutenberg dancing on roller skates like a spaz, followed by quick cuts of various oddballs throughout New York City. Also, I am almost certain you can see the balls of the guy riding the unicycle in the oddball montage, because it looked like Gutenberg's hair in his crotch. Lastly when they introduce the club owner in his bedazzled rose jacket, he is so clearly coked out of his mind he can't see straight, his eyes are almost as red as the flowers on his jacket they are so bloodshot.

Yeah the basic idea is that Disney will now rule over December/January for the foreseeable future. The odd years were going to have the episodic Star Wars films while in between would be a spinoff movie: this one about how the rebels got the plans for the Death Star, a young Han Solo film (which I think is the biggest risk for being terrible), a Boba Fett film, and then there are a few other ideas that were being bounced around.

I just watched this on Hulu and it is amazingly bad. It features Tim Thomerson from Rhinestone as a no nonsense cop from the future who goes back in time to hunt his nemesis who is killing the ancestors of the current society's leaders. It also has Helen Hunt in one of her first roles as Thomerson's love interest and features multiple moped chases, a fistfight with a psychically possessed mall Santa, a device that slows time and makes one second seem like ten, and numerous hacky sci-fi tropes. Also, they didn't make just one of these movies, they made SIX FUCKING MOVIES in this series, and while Cannon has been a topic of attack recently, I would love to see the group take a look at Full Moon Pictures which has some incredibly bad movies like Gingerdead Man and Evil Bong.

This movie is great in that it was the inspiration for Manborg, which if you guys haven't seen it's amazing as an homage to bad sci-fi. This was actually a pretty weird movie because it comes off as if it's in a distant future at the beginning but it's actually set in the 80s and a crazy scientist has created a cyborg. I about cried laughing in the beginning when the manborg asked for his mobility station which would allow him to move quickly and escape the scientist, but when its shown it is the most awkward tank track system that barely fits down the hallways of the scientist's lair.

I would say the last notable film she was in came right after this one, Summer of Sam. It got a lot of press for the subject matter and being a Spike Lee film and if I remember right she did get a lot of praise for her role alongside John Leguizam.

I always thought The Doors were an overrated band so the movie wasn't my kind of flick, though I will admit he was a good double for Jim Morrison.

I don't know, for me it's a combo of Top Gun, Real Genius, and Batman Forever. After that it's all basically dreck.

I forgot how horribly schmaltzy 90s romance flicks were as they were basically the last vestige for actors on the outs of their top level careers, like Christian Slater in Bed of Roses or the rom-coms Clooney did after Batman & Robin. God damn you jarrycanada for making me remember this hunk of shit.

With Van Damme getting his start with Cannon Films, I would have loved a little in-joke for that commercial to be that the trucks were from Hawk & Son trucking from Over the Top.

Is it me or does the stuntman at the far left look like a very tan Tim Tebow? Yeah haven't seen nudity yet, but holy shit are they get mileage out of saying "fuck" uncensored. The first time when Marcia Clark said it at the end of an episode it was quiet enough that I actually rewound to make sure I heard it right, but now they are dropping it left and right, especially with last week's episode concerning the Furhman tapes. With the finale next week I'm really on edge, I wonder what the verdict is going to be?

Because the bartender pulled out a very nice looking bottle of whiskey in order to Irish up that coffee. So JCVD went in there hoping for some free high end hooch while only really paying for a cheap coffee. The real question that you should be asking is why didn't JCVD ask for a fresh cup because when the bartender tells him to take a seat he literally the next second later pulls an already filled cup of coffee out from under the bar. There's no telling how long that's been there because the bar looks like it's been empty for years.

Okay holy shit, I'm thirty seconds in and this is already HDTGM worthy. I get that they made this basically for the Juggalos with all of the Faygo and facepaint, and I realize that they got Vanilla Ice since he's performed at the Gathering a few times, but seriously is Tom Sizemore that hard up for cash now? Also I get that they were paying Scott Hall in hooch, but was it really necessary for him to be the guy who breaks the fourth wall?

40 CLICKS!
