  1. I have to test you to see if we’re aligned. Do you believe Predator is a top ten 80’s movie and The Predator is Hitler?
  2. I wasn’t a fan of the casting but was interested in seeing this. Won’t lose sleep over it. I’d rather see the Tremors pilot Kevin Bacon did before that got cancelled.
  3. Thats crazy. Highest RT score for a Predator movie. Even OG Predator only got 80%. I’m guessing I’m going to fall in line with this reviewer. Will find out tomorrow.
  4. You forgot the background predators that were watching and give her some sort of prize for killing the big bad. “Thanks for playing, you were just lovely! Hope to see you again.”
  5. I don’t blame you, I’ve lowered my expectations as well. We’ve been burned too many times. But this does look great. But so did every other Predator trailer ever. I’m excited for it and if it sucks, I’ll still be excited for the next one and will watch that turd too.
  6. Really saddened by this so I needed something to smile at.
  7. Exactly. Reimagined. They put OG Nick Fury to rest.
  8. I don’t know, I think he’s done mostly Korean films. Like the guy they chose for Namor has done mostly Mexican films. But Marvel saw him and said, “This. This is the guy.”
  9. Yup, and if they can erase Cavill’s mustache, they can add a widows peak to this dude. Might be cheaper to just glue on some hair.
  10. I would have been good with an Asian guy playing him.
  11. But there is only one OG Spider-Man and his back story is relatively intact. Multiverse stuff doesn’t count. Fat Thor is still Thor and was done for comedic effect and then he returned to his normal look. Nick Fury was just a reimagining of a character they didn’t think was iconic enough. But you change the origin of a character, then you’ve changed that character. Imagine Peter Parkers origin story taking place in Oregon. I mean, I’m not rioting about Namor (yet) but there were a few simple things they could have nailed. Thank you, Marvel..
  12. I’m not a fan of JM Aquaman but at least DC did him better than Marvel appears to have done with Sub-Mariner.
  13. Seriously? It’s a terrible representation all the way to the costume. Eddie Munster would have been a better choice. And we’re just going to redact Atlantis? This is not Sub-Mariner. He should have been in the cast of Apocalypto.
  14. You can’t screw with The X-Men. Disney will keep the title and hopefully it will be an awesome start. Days of Future Past set the bar for an X-Men film and I’m really hoping Marvel raises it without a joke or wink every 15 minutes.
  15. Now I did say I’m good with the neck break and Zod needed to die, I just wanted a grander death I guess. Like Zod using his laser vision on the Hoover Dam or a nuclear reactor or whatever and then Supes puts the kibosh on him.
  16. For the record, as much as I love MOS, I did wish Pa Kent had a heart attack instead. I often wish heart attacks on people anyway. And while I am good with the neck snappin cracklin goodness at the end, I didn’t think they used the right scenario for it to occur. It seemed like a low stakes situation with a couple of lives at stake after thousands probably got taken out in collapsing buildings. I would still have had Clark kill Zod but in a different situation where there was no time to think and too many lives not to consider. But since the greatest fight scenes in comic book movie history had just taken place I am able to forgive things I didn’t like.
  17. I’ve gone through a couple of *cough* concrete walls before and no big deal really. Ok fine, that dude would have been a bag of liquid but he messed with Supes girl. Funny how later he would be like, “Oh sure, that dude was good, few scratches and whatnot.. yeah..”
  18. Yeah, I just looked at the census as well and there’s a few there. I had one submitted for Gene and one for Stan. Wish I held on to them.
  19. Oh wow, I’m not positive but that Iron Man #1 in your sigline looks like the one I sold over a decade ago. Unless you submitted it for the signature.
  20. Agreed, I didn’t like Pa Kents death in MOS at all. But I can find things in most movies I would have changed. Overall, Man of Steel was one hell of a comic book movie ride for me. Absolute best superpowered fights with the destruction to match. Sure thousands died but I don’t want Joe’s parachuting from every plane Cobra shoots down.
  21. Yes, we must all agree to like the same things! I think we all know how childish it is to berate someone for enjoying a movie or show and I would just dismiss those people. And I don’t respect others opinions because they like what I like. If you find value in a movie I hate, we should celebrate those differences. Rib each other and move on, its not that serious.
  22. Right, because Superman has never killed before in comics or movies. Like Batman has never killed anyone or used a gun. Bro, do you even nerd?
