ANT-MAN & THE WASP QUANTUMANIA directed by Peyton Reed (2023)
AnthonyTheAbyss replied to Bosco685's topic in The Movie Forum
I really like how Marvel incorporates music. Never thought Elton John would make a trailer more epic. Didn't like Ant Man 1 or 2. Nothing wrong about the two movies...but nothing great either. This looks fantastic with the Sci-Fi vibes. ***Just wish they start showing more scenes that emphasize how dangerous Kang is- 1,060 replies

Hulu's LEGO MASTERS hosted by Will Arnett (2020)
AnthonyTheAbyss replied to Bosco685's topic in The Movie Forum
If anybody has $25 dollars to spare, go pick up a Lego Speed Champion. They are fantastic cars and the build is very fun. If anybody has $300 dollars to spare, go pick up a Lego Technic car (I recommend the Bugatti but all of them are awesome). ***Another fun (but expensive) hobby- 6 replies

BLACK ADAM starring Dwayne Johnson (TBD)

Shazaam + Superman fight Black Adam. Don't even need a story. Just a 2 hour boxing match. It'll make a billion dollars. ***The reviews don't looks so hot so far- 1,455 replies

BLACK ADAM starring Dwayne Johnson (TBD)
AnthonyTheAbyss replied to Bosco685's topic in The Movie Forum
Black Adam seems like a movie where it is building up The Rock brand. I like Duane Johnson. He seems like a genuinely good dude from all I've read about him. I think it is the fact that he's pushing the movie as he's the savior of the DCEU...Black Adam is the new apex of power, he made Henry Cavil possible, etc. If Black Adam does save the DCEU then all the credit goes his way. But if it doesn't... Here's the defense of Ezra Miller...I really liked his introduction in the Justice League when Bruce Wayne was recruiting him. Great scene and I really felt sorry for him when he said "I need friends"... ***He was/is a great Flash- 1,455 replies

BLACK ADAM starring Dwayne Johnson (TBD)
AnthonyTheAbyss replied to Bosco685's topic in The Movie Forum
Yeah, the proportions look off. Plus it is just a bad looking picture/poster. I keep coming back to this...have Jim Lee draw the movie poster! It would be an instant collector piece and great advertising. ***Something about this movie seems off (I can't put my finger on it)- 1,455 replies

MCU's DEADPOOL 3 starring Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman (2024)
AnthonyTheAbyss replied to Bosco685's topic in The Movie Forum
No no no. If you've seen the animated series where Hulk/Wolverine took on Deadpool/Sabretooth/Deathstrike...Deadpool was full of joke and sarcasm while Wolverine was all serious. My point is that they don't both have to be comedic. You can have one serious (Old Man Logan) with the comedy of Deadpool and still make it work. This was what they tried with Cable/Deadpool but failed. I think they can still make that concept work. ***Just don't want to see Wolverines intro to the MCU be a comedy -
MCU's DEADPOOL 3 starring Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman (2024)
AnthonyTheAbyss replied to Bosco685's topic in The Movie Forum
Is anybody else worried that this will be a Thor: Love and Thunder joke fest? I don't want to see Old Man Logan be a comedy team up. I stop being optimistic for anything MCU until I see it. ***I hope Kang erases phase 4 -
AVATAR 2 THE WAY OF WATER starring Sam Worthington (2022)

That was a surprisingly somewhat positive review. "Surprising" because of the failure at the box office and I haven't heard much about this movie. Still not going to see it in theatres but I'll give it a try once it hits TV. ***Didn't even realize what this movie was about until now

It looks like Marvel is going to go with people they know when it comes to directing. I can't say if this is the correct course of action since they have found success with "new" and "MCU" directors. ***I guess they want people who will stick to the MCU formula for these huge movies

GAME OF THRONES: HOUSE OF THE DRAGON series (2022)
AnthonyTheAbyss replied to Bosco685's topic in The Movie Forum
Great first episode. They did a very good job a laying the foundation and helping people who never saw GOT (however few that may be) a good starting point without being completely lost. Characters looked great. Dragons looked great. Stayed fairly honest to the book. ***Looking forward to the next episode- 490 replies

Amazon's THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE RINGS OF POWER (2022)
AnthonyTheAbyss replied to Bosco685's topic in The Movie Forum
I've heard all the worries/concerns about this show. Some legitimate and some pretty stupid. People picking apart the trailer, the "super fan" event, not being true to Tolkien's story, etc... ...but I draw the line here: If Tom Bombadil doesn't show up in the show I'm going to give it a 0/100 rating. ***He's old as dirt- 629 replies

Hulu's PREDATOR: PREY directed by Dan Trachtenberg (2022)
AnthonyTheAbyss replied to Bosco685's topic in The Movie Forum
Having now seen it, my official opinion...great entertaining movie and did the franchise justice. I hope the actors get more movie roles because of it. It is now my second favorite Predator movie. I'm not going to question anybody's opinion since it is their own...but I don't see how anybody can say it is better than the original (unless they only saw it recently and never got a chance to enjoy the initial "WTF" moment when the Predator was first revealed)... - or the moment they mowed down the jungle with 1000's of rounds of ammo - or the first moment you heard the "gggrrrr" - or the first moment you saw the heat signature - or the "we're all gonna die" line - or the "it bleeds we can kill it" line - or "get to the choppa" line - or "I ain't got time to bleed" line - or Billy making his final stand - or Dillon redeeming himself - or finding Hawkin's body Prey is a fantastic movie. It just lacks the memorable moments that will last for years to come like the original. ***Prey...solid 75/100. The original is a 95/100.- 371 replies

So I've heard this several times now. Before saying anything else I'd like to point out that I have not yet seen "Prey" and will do it this weekend when I visit my friend (I don't have Hulu). BUTT... ...No, saying it is better than Predator 1 is not allowed. It is OG. It is what launched the franchise. ***Acceptable answer..."as good" or "second best"- 371 replies

Blumhouse's SPAWN THE MOVIE starring Jamie Foxx (2025?)
AnthonyTheAbyss replied to Bosco685's topic in The Movie Forum
This. It has always been this. Which I have no qualms with. It's his creation. Plus he has been very successful at doing comics and launching a toy line. So there's no reason for him to think he couldn't create a successful Spawn movie. ***But I always tamper my excitement whenever rumors of a Spawn movie is coming because of this -
Hulu's PREDATOR: PREY directed by Dan Trachtenberg (2022)
AnthonyTheAbyss replied to Bosco685's topic in The Movie Forum
True. But I put the blame on the franchise. Plus I have lowered my bar significantly in expectations. So a lull in the story isn't going to disappoint me. I'm not asking for much... - A decent looking Predator (doesn't have to be great) - Good story (doesn't have to be great) - A few moments where I can say "cool" - Good acting (doesn't have to be Oscar worthy) - Violence and body count (doesn't have to be graphic or over the top) - Lots of macho/primal/manly (in this case womanly) scenes ***Just a good popcorn movie- 371 replies
