The humble Watcher lurking Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 (edited) As a old time lurker(in my mid 50s). I like this movie. I paid my $29.99. It was worth it. For people not in the know when you pay $29.99 you own the movie. I plan to do this with Master of Kung Fu and Eternals. I don't know when I will go back to movie theater. I might be different as my best friend died of the pandemic April 5th and my brother in law died of the pandemic June 3. I was older than both of them,so yeah me paying $29.99 was worth it. I like the movie. Too bad pandemic and China will affect its final numbers Edited November 20, 2021 by The humble Watcher lurking aardvark88, 1950's war comics and bentbryan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azkaban Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 saw it for the second time this weekend with my daughter and friend, I think you guys are being a little hard on this movie. It's what I expect out of a good action popcorn flick, very enjoyable Juno Beach 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@therealsilvermane Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 I had no problems at all with Taskmaster in the film. First, I could care less that they changed the secret identity of a D-list Avengers villain whose main claim to fame is a classic cover for Avengers #196. It would actually have been kind of silly if the person behind the mask turned out to be some guy called Tony Masters. Get it? T. Master(s)? So clever! Not really. The identity of Taskmaster in the movie worked for me and was more appropriate to the film's story and added an emotional level that might not have been there otherwise. Before knowing Taskmaster's identity, the character was quite menacing in a Terminator-Butch Cassidy and Sundance Kid-being-chased kind of way. I assume the Taskmaster got its super-strength from an Iron Man-type exoskeleton. I don't believe it was stated in the movie, but it had to be the case. Otherwise I'm not sure how Taskmaster goes toe-to-toe with Red Guardian and punts Natasha around like an old kickball. piper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time they acquired more locations in a bulk purchase, the state Supreme Court actually forced them to leave a few out of the deal so they would not be a monopoly in my area. That is how we got the Picture Show theater near me. AMC was not allowed to buy it. Bosco685 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing else beats a great steak cooked by somebody else from a good restaurant. I do not like reheated beef, and they cook it better than me. So call me old school. My point was that people are lazier than ever, and Disney (among other studios) have opened up a venue that caters to the lazy forks, thereby changing the landscape as we knew it.
