    Right, because I'm the only one here who had a problem with the writing and performances in this movie.
  2. Duke Togo
    No, you simply are willing to accept things I am not.

    Never fails to make me laugh out loud.

    You didn't read back more than a page, did you? There were plenty of us who were put off by the horrible dialog and gross overacting that plagues just about every scene that doesn't involve robots fighting monsters. The scientists are flat out horrid, and ruin every scene they are in. And it takes some [sarcasm] real directorial talent [/sarcasm] to get a sub-par performance out of Idris Elba, but somehow del Toro managed to do just that.

    Rocket Raccoon, hell yeah!

    The industry never rebounded.

    Only 7 left...

    Word is spreading that Vin Diesel is playing Groot. No official confirmation, yet.

    The Thing and Big Trouble in Little China are definitely not among his movies I would consider guilty pleasures. They're just flat out great.

    Showgirls, but you have to watch it with friends. Drinking helps, too. And yes, A7, I suppose Starship Troopers would count. It's clearly not the book, and it's definitely not the spiritual successor to Robocop that Verhoeven wants it to be, but the cast! THE CAST!

    I'm not saying its great cinema. Hell, I don't even own it. But it's good, campy fun.

    I mean, for gods sakes, it has Neil Patrick Harris in the movie as a psychic! And Michael Ironside as Michael Ironside! crap, thats not even counting Clancy Brown and Jake Busey!

    It's not a sci-fi movie, and it's not the novel (which is a shame). It's part social commentary and part camp. If you watch and take it seriously, you are watching it wrong. It's not on the same level of Robocop, mind you. But it's still good fun.

    Woah woah woah. Stinker?

    From what I've read, they really beat you over the head with the movie's message, in that heavy-handed Avatar sorta way.

    I think I'm gonna wait for the Blu to hit Netflix.

    I saw this yesterday, and nearly crapped myself. Then I started reading about X 3, which was the last game of the series... It is not highly regarded.

    It's not great, but it's better than the other ones.

    Outside of First Class, I haven't really liked any of the X-Men movies. Maybe I should just skip this, lol.
  20. Duke Togo
    I waited for the blu to hit Netflix before I saw the first one. If there's good buzz being generated by the second, I may go see it in the theater.

    Anime trope, dude. We've seen it a thousand times in the past thirty-some years.
  22. Duke Togo
    Surviving the wrath of god simply by closing your eyes is kinda silly.

    True story: I actually read End of the Circle way back in 1990.
  24. Duke Togo
    You don't know the Days of Futures Past comic story at all, do you?
  25. Duke Togo
    Nicol Williamson?
