  1. I thought it was a decent mid-grade MCU film. I too never understood the fuss.
  2. Fair enough. Thanks for the post.
  3. Entertainment isn't profitable nor entertaining when it's an angry social lecture. Once an entertainer decides the angry social lecture matters most, they should enter politics & revist entertaining some other day.
  4. Great list. I'm a fanboy for them all. The destruction of these characters & the cinematic universe they share with all the other characters began with the MCU's Black Widow in 2021.
  5. This is the most accurate statement I've yet read. I hope it works out for Marvel. I think I'm done with the MCU until there's real FF & X-Men promise on the horizon, until they return to entertainment, not social theory or whatever is motivating this angry swill. Is it really wise to select a trailer tune due to some sort of obscure, academic social theory about women & their smiles? Or to challenge fans a la She-Hulk? As I've said before, She-Hulk defines today's MCU. It sums it all up, nicely. The MCU is at war with itself, and with its fans. Black Widow forward has killed a dyed in the wool Marvel Zombie, even with such goodness as WWBN & most of WandaVision [despite an obsequious English butler playing Vision].
  6. While not a soul under 30 knows the Beasties, I appreciate the GenX tune. At least it isn't the ubiquitous A&R radio 70's classic rock redub or friggin GOTG yacht rock.
  7. I'm not surprised they don't read something. I am surprised they do. I'd like to know why they read Manga. I reckon a topic for another thread or for CG.
  8. My fav DC character. This is the only currently announced superhero movie with promise. Before MCU P4, I thought they all had promise.
  9. I hope you like it. I hope it's good & a success. To me, it seems like it'll do nothing to help the current state of MCU affairs, and may very well harm it.
  10. 1980, I think. The also rans are rather perfect, like Blade Runner, but excluded from the top 10 due to excessive violence. The Exorcist, for example, is a movie I'll never watch again during my lifetime & haven't seen in 20 years, but is perfect. I included the Road Warrior for a bit of controversy. I didn't consider foreign films, like Ghibli stuff.
  11. Godfather & Apocalypse Now could've gone on my list. The Exorcist. Josie Wales. What are couple perfect movies since 1980? By perfect I mean more than really good. So please, no Little Mermaid, fellas.
  12. Dracula. King Kong. Wizard of Oz. Gone with the Wind. Casablanca. To Have and to Have Not. 2001. Sound of Music. Star Wars. Road Warrior.
  13. This could work but first, what do you mean by guy?
