  1. I'm going to come to the man's defense (albeit, hesitantly)... - What We Do In The Shadows (I even love the FX show...hilarious) - JoJo Rabbit (great/weird movie) - Ragnarok (Changed the direction of Thor and saved it) ***Prior to this misstep I've heard nothing but (mostly) positives about him
  2. This movie will make enough for them to justify continuing doing what they are doing. We need to see BIG MAJOR flops in multiple MCU movies for them to finally acknowledge what they're doing isn't good. I'm getting tired of being over hyped only to be let down (Moon Knight, Boba Fett, Kenobi, Ms. Marvel...and to an extent Dr. Strange MoM). ***Or hope that the DCEU get their @#$%$ together and give the MCU some competition
  3. I have more faith in UF4 hitting $10K than ASM300. Not saying it will happen...just saying if I had to make a bet on one or the other. ***Add UXM 129 to that race
  4. Well this review was a downer. I can handle the MCU comedy thing but I was hoping there'd be less...not more. I don't know who in the movie focus group said "yes, more stupid comedy please". Maybe I'm getting old a losing touch with what people want. ***The Infinity War scene where they were talking about Ben & Jerry Ice Cream during an impending doom...that was my line in the sand.
  5. These reviews are giving me more hope. I wasn't feeling the hype and excitement I expected (friends, co-workers, family, etc...) for a movie so close to release. But sounds like it might be worth a ticket and large popcorn. ***Holding off on the M&M's for now
  6. I tried several surfaces but the two that worked best was the vellum surface and the smooth surface. The vellum has the tiniest bits of groove in the paper that catches the colored pencils and adds to more (the slightest) uneven shading (more realistic). The smooth surface made it look to much like a painting and less flaws...which isn't as realistic. ***I'll repost after I clean it up and add that green leaf
  7. My first attempt at hyper-realism. Went with the cliche "apple". Took about 4 hours. Prismacolor on Strathmore 300 vellum surface. ***Need to add a leaf to get more green then it should be done
  8. I couldn't get over the fact that in the previous movie they released the T-Rex to kill the mutant dinosaur they couldn't stop. So now they have a T-Rex (again, that just took out the mutant dinosaur that they couldn't stop) on the loose but everybody is happy and cheering. That's like curing the flu with ebola! ***I don't know why I can't get past that
  9. Great deal. Great transaction. Great communication. Just top notch all around. Thank you John! Tony
  10. Please lawd don't let him fight another symbiote. Please lawd improve on the CGI. Please lawd stop making him so corny. ***Right now I'm more excited for the MCU Venom
  11. I look forward to the second movie. But I'm going to be honest...I wasn't very impressed with the first one. I liked it. It just didn't live up to the hype that I was expecting. Hearing how other people talked about the movie they were making it out to be The Godfather or Jaws. ***So good movie...but I shouldn't have boarded the hype train
  12. I'll settle the debate for everything... - Right side of a Twix taste better than the left - Ford trucks over Chevy - Pepsi over Coke - Alyssa Milano over Jessica Alba - PS4 over the X-Box - CGC over PGX (I tossed a coin on this one) ***And the non debate...Transformers over GoBots
  13. The trailer looks good. Looks very good. ***Please let him fight Superman...please!!!
  14. Every time I see this thread pop up it gets me excited. Then I read the latest news/info on it it makes me depressed...cause the chance of this movie being made is less and less. ***Please stop letting this be associated with Channing Tatum!!!
  15. So I have posted several times how I don't like Gorr not being comic accurate. BUTT... ...it's starting to grow on me. If he is comic accurate or not, the character looks pretty good. ***However, I do like this theory
  16. So is this going to be an all female cast? Not a negative comment...I'm actually curious since I have no idea what this movie is about. ***Now just waiting what characters they'll play
  17. I really don't know if I'm excited or disappointed. I don't see Gorr The God Butcher...I see Christian Bale. The rest the trailer didn't really show anything new or give anything away. ***I did LOL'd when the women fainted
  18. My honest first reaction when I heard this was "eh". I like the Tom Holland Spider-man but at some point they are going to milk the cow dry (or the milk is going bad). I'm now more interested in who the villain will be. ***Bring in Miles Morales already
  19. Here's the one thing that runs through my head whenever I see this "non-hulk-smash" version of Banner....we are never going to get the the Wolverine vs Hulk fight. And that makes me sad ***Another "give the first episode a chance" show and see how it goes
  20. But it was a harmless pick. They can STILL pick one of the other actors you suggested in future movies. It is the multiverse after all. I think it was a nice nod to the fans to give them something they wanted but not something that they we tied to for the next 10 years. ***If Krasinski does become THE guy then I will agree with you (I was never a fan of him being Mr. Fantastic)
  21. I know some people won't agree with this...BUTT... ...they need to bring back the sex, nudity, and violence that made the earlier seasons of GoT so enjoyable (along with a great story obviously). As GoT became more popular and the stars got more famous I think they started having more say in what they wanted to show/do on screen. ***Not Spartacus (the show) levels of violence/nudity...that was just over the top
  22. The MAIN reason I collect comics is for the nostalgia. With all these legends passing away it does give me some solace that I have some of their work on my collection to enjoy and remember. ***To happy memories...RIP
  23. I don't think they hate it. That's not the impression I'm getting. Not every movie will get a 90/100. If it is around a 70 or an 80 (out of 100) from the "critics"...the general audience will still come to see it in droves. ***But I agree with the IM3 possible parallels...and Venom
  24. I challenge anybody to find a review without the words "it's a Sam Raimi movie" in it. ***Doesn't have to be verbatim
  25. So I'm listening to all these first impressions and everybody keeps saying "this is a Sam Raimi movie". WTF does that even mean? ***Getting annoyed with that term
