Why do people say this? Why do we expect less during the summer? We give them a pass to make substandard movies (and they make a lot of them).

Once again, you are correct (Though, Heaven's Gate is generally considered the death blow to "New Hollywood.") -
The Wolverine FILMS (X-Men Universe)
Duke Togo replied to antibiotictab's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
My movie collection reaches back some 80 years, so I definitely do not have an era bias. There are plenty of films made every year that I enjoy. It just so happens almost none of them come out during the summer months.My perception that many of these movies are mediocre to bad is because they are. -

What people forget: he was considered a "serious" actor up until that movie. He never was again.He role wasnt large, and any decent "straight man" could handle it.

Bad Robot tweeted a picture of what everyone assumes is the new Star Wars script: http://t.co/VFvoxedpqC In other news, Harrison Ford is having a lot of fun not confirming he is back for Episode VII at SDCC. Lots of winks, smiles, and praise for JJ being on the project, though. Oh, there was a rumor about a month or so back that Lucasfilm had assigned personal trainers to Hamil and Fisher to get them in shape for the new movie.

Given the general state of comedies these days, I'd say no.

Digital download only release, I assume this means it's a traditional AC game (aka established game engine that doesn't require a lot of development time). That's my guess, anyway.- 6998 replies

I kinda liked First Class, but haven't liked any of the other X movies. I'm cautiously optimistic for this one because of the story it is tapping into.- 329 replies

The Wolverine FILMS (X-Men Universe)
Duke Togo replied to antibiotictab's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
No film is perfect. Somewhere in the 90's it became OK for summer films to pander to the lowest common denominator. Roland Emmerich and Michael Bay pretty much ruined the summer movie experience. Story matters. Writing matters. Acting matters. Big robots, super heroes, and big explosions don't make the lack of these ok. The summer movies I grew up with in the late 70's and 80's make most of this stuff look like made for SyFy crap. -

I like Idris Elba, but I thought he has several bad line readings in this movie. Certainly not one of his better performances.
