  1. I don't get that feeling at all. You've obviously been reading different articles than I have. The skepticism has been real from the film critic community. It almost sounds like you want this to be bad.
  2. I could use this same description to describe most of Trek before the first reboot movie. What has occurred since that initial reboot is pretty much in line with too much of what came before: sub-par and uninteresting. Trek didn't fail before this because it was too niche; it failed because it was bad. Khan and TNG were a long time ago, and they failed multiple times to produce anything of similar quality.
  3. By "fans" you mean film reviewers? Because those are the people who are tweeting these things. And I'm not sure how you could think anyone would have blinders on after the prequels and special editions. We're in the jaded era.
  4. Trek was all but dead before JJ came on board, and the first reboot film reinvigorated the franchise. You'd have to be living in a fantasy world of denial to think otherwise.
  5. /Film Spoiler-free Early Buzz: 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' In a nutshell: this is the film we have been looking for for over 30 years. The Force is very strong with this one.
  6. I enjoyed watching JJ, and Marvel is doing a solid job building its non-Avengers storyline on Netflix. I eagerly await DD season 2, and the addition of the Punisher.
  7. Ok, I'm pretty sure that's totally grounds for a forum ban.
  8. This thread could have ended where it started. Opening with They Live is a total premature mic-drop.
  9. Why show it at all? I'd have been pretty damned surprised in the theater to see him pop up as the baddie.It's fairly clear they want this movie to set up everything. Instead of doing it organically over several films, they're cramming it all into one.
  10. WTF is Jesse Eisenberg doing? I just... Wow, yeah, I'll be shocked if he's not nominated for a Razzie. Hell, the entire trailer was bad. Just no. And why spoil something like that in the trailer? Nonsensical. They might as well rename the movie at this point since it's not the major conflict.
