  1. Their Instagram post is hilarious. Particularly loved this bit: Dunno, if any of that is true about the interaction between Ayer and the band members, their visual design is strikingly similar.
  2. If Marvel faces that during the production of "Avengers," I don't see it cancelling the film, I see it delaying it. So why wasn't Miller asked back along with his cast and screenplay and why was the movie delayed for a decade? I'm particularly sad about this with regards to his Wonder Woman casting who I like more than Gal Gadot. Ultimately, we don't know why they delayed the film or why Snyder was chosen over Miller, but there may have been a reason. Or maybe there wasn't and Miller declined.
  3. George Miller! If Geoff Johns could get George Miller, that's my first indication that he may be a good counterpart to Kevin Feige. Feige's first gets for the in-house Marvel movies were Jon Favreau and Joss Whedon, and everyone loved those picks. With Miller riding high after Mad Max, it looks like a solid pick. On the other hand, he got fired from the previous Justice League movie. But was he fired for good reason? If he was, getting him again may be out of the question.
  4. 'Sausage Party' is at 92% on RT? Sausage Party. I know nothing about the film, but the cast is an All-Star assemblage of a lot of the world's best comic actors.
  5. As Smith himself would probably say...was there every really a time when he COULD make a good movie, or even recognize one?
  6. Keeping in mind they gave him Harley's prop bat for his daughter, so he kinda has to say nice things, right? http://www.ew.com/article/2016/01/31/suicide-squad-harley-quinn-bat-kevin-smith-daughter It would be easy to assume so. But as much as Kevin Smith is associated with DC, he came down hard on Batman v Superman from his initial viewing. So I would like to assume he will speak his mind if he doesn't care for the film. And then praised BvS after his second viewing. He did acknowledge that his praise was based upon the nostalgia of being a fanboy of the characters though.
  7. While I love Kevin Smith, he went into this film with a huge bias in knowing Ayer personally and with his daughter being nuts for and named after Harley Quinn. I knew he'd love this film no matter what the actual quality was like.
  8. If they can get young pre-pregnancy Jennifer Connelly in it, I'm all in.
  9. I was surprised at that as well. That JL trailer, though pieced together rather quickly, told all it needed to about the main heroes and the tone of the film to make it that much more exciting. 2017 can't get here soon enough. Is everyone more or less excited than they were about Dawn of Justice?
  10. Also for every 20 pounds of fat a woman puts on, she gets about half a pound to two pounds of boob depending upon how big she is to begin with. I knew a girl who was 5' 1" and 125 pounds who was a bit chunky for her size, but she didn't want to lose weight and go from a D-cup to a C-cup. Kelly Brook does the same thing, stays at the upper edge of her weight for her frame so that she's more curvy. Christina Hendricks goes even further than Brook by staying in her BMI overweight range so that her boobs are huge; she has a D or an E cup when she's thin but goes up to F or G while overweight. Gadot will fill out the costume better from multiple perspectives at the upper range of her weight.
  11. Other way around. Before packing on 17 pounds of muscle on her 5'10" frame, she looked sickly thin. The second photo is her at the BvS launch party, and you can clearly tell she looks much healthier now and thicker around the arms. Maybe she should use the Mountain's bulking up method...he went from 240 pounds to 400 pounds now, so surely she can get up to 200! Then she could fit the Frank Cho bulky wonder woman image!
  12. Gadot and Lucy Lawless are virtually identically sized at 5' 10" and 135 to 140 pounds, although when she first took the part Gadot was at modern waif model weight and under 125 pounds. Lucy Lawless has lost weight since her Xena days. And we must have a different understanding of the word "waif". I would not describe Gadot as a waif, even in BvS. When she first got the part, she was still waif-thin from her modeling days when she was 115 to 120 instead of 135 to 140. Here she is back when she modeled:
  13. DC's Captain Marvel is the original Captain Marvel. Maybe it was a form of protest It's fine given that the two characters are so famously tied together after Marvel filed the trademark on the name after DC let it lapse after first suing Fawcett for Captain Marvel being so similar to Superman and then later acquiring Fawcett's characters. The only reason they ever named him Shazam is because DC forgot to re-file the trademark during the post-lawsuit period when they weren't using the character.
  14. Gadot and Lucy Lawless are virtually identically sized at 5' 10" and 135 to 140 pounds, although when she first took the part Gadot was at modern waif model weight and under 125 pounds.
  15. The number of reviews doubled this afternoon--it's 84 positive, 10 negative now for an overall 90%. I expect it'll settle in the mid to high 80s, which means it should be a great flick.
  16. link doesn't work for me, but that's strange. I was under the impression the app only works at walking speed and doesn't work at driving speed. That link doesn't work on PCs. It just downloaded something on Chrome that I promptly deleted before my computer self-destructed.
  17. would likely have passed if the reviews were mediocre, now it's probably a go. been a terrible summer for movie going. Same, was gonna skip, now I'm not.
  18. Just as cheesy as the Godzilla of my childhood. And what's with the loud classical music blaring throughout the clip?
  19. Early reviews are incredible--26 positive, 3 negative for 90% overall Rotten Tomatoes. Given that early reviews are usually unrepresentatively high you'd expect this to go down, but still, it shouldn't plummet. Looks like it's a solid flick.
  20. When you find a pokemon there is a little slider up in the top right corner that says AR (if you turn it on your camera will appear and you can catch the buggers in your surroundings. Here is one of mine: That one looks like going after it is a risk of ending up having to register as a sexual offender.
  21. Can you collect all of the available Pokemon in one region, or did they stick some in unique places like the top of the Eiffel Tower?
  22. All of the trailers are still telling me this is a Fast and Furious movie with Star Trek characters. Someone pointed this out to the director after the first trailer and he claimed that the one trailer isn't representative of the film...so of course they released a second trailer that also focused on nothing but action. It was controversial for Abrams to inject the action elements into the film, but I greatly enjoyed it. It still looks to me as if Justin Lin is quadrupling down on the precedent set by Abrams.
  23. I used to have a page on my website where I posted them all for everyone to enjoy. Then I got a nasty cease and desist order from one of the copyright holders and a bill for $6000, so I took it down. Who sent you the cease and desist order?
  24. She didn't commit to the camp like Linda Carter did. And no way can she do a DOUBLE costume spin change.
  25. I agree. I thought it was God awful. Good parts, yes but overall my least favorite comic book movie post 2007. The biggest hump to get over: You prefer the Liefeld version? I prefer the movie version.
