The dvd/bluray release will make it better for those who didn't dig it as much as it has deleted content that was crucial to the fucking storyline on it. Don't know why the fuck they did that. However, knowing it's one of 6 movies, I think it's fucking great.
The Void IMO was 10/10. It was amazing. Reminded me of Hellraiser in ways and a bunch of other fucked up shit.
John Wick 2 was super disappointing. I found it slow and boring when compared to the first. I'd only give that a 5/10 for it having some killer death scenes. The story overall was fucking dumb as hell though.
Logan was fucking amazing. That's easily a 9/10 or a 10/10. There are a few minor things they could have done better but overall, I think it was the most solid X-Man based movie that has been made.
Get Out was fucking HILARIOUS. I'm sorry but that movie is awesome. I am buying it once it goes on sale (like actually on a sale not for sale lol). 8/10
Lego Batman was the shit. I dunno how you all feel about it, but I loved it and the kids loved it. Easily a 9/10.
You're not a big critic, are you jwar
I wanted Logan to be 9/10, or even a strong 8/10, but from the Logan thread:vidret wrote:Ok so I think it took a couple of steps in the wrong direction here, that kept it from being a solid 8/10 for me;
spoilers:
* once we were introduced to the other wolverine everyone pretty much knew the adamantium bullet was gonna get him.
The fact that logan himself didn't use it on the other wolverine is dumb. The fact that logan didn't absolutely tear the new wolverine apart when he was pierced and half-dead was also dumb, and I'm tired of seeing movies with shit like that.
He could've gone over to him and done him in, would've taken less than 30 seconds and then there'd only be footsoldiers.
* Same goes for the head-scientist guy, he was standing right there. fucking kill him when you've got the chance.
* How does a kid that's being held/raised in a secret facility, being trained to be used as a weapon end up overweight? It could be that his dad was.. super-chunk x-men, i dunno. It's not that I mind a fat kid, but how the hell is that possible? It's not. He's like the token fat AND black kid.
* why didn't wolverine kill the robot-arm-bro in the beginning instead of just kicking his head? There's so much killing in this movie but they don't do it right, still. it annoys the fuck outta me. It was painfully obvious.
Would've enjoyed it if they built him up and then showed "meh, he can be killed" and killed the guy off in 30 mins, instead of having him survive, somehow, everytime (blonde bro).
* the kids could've been older, please. everything with kid actors is painful, usually. Kind of brought the last part down. The main kid was good tho.
Would've been better if it were them to the end, and as he died the kid joined the other kids, or something.
and the void is surely AWESOME, but it's not a 10/10. Very hellraiser-y, definitely. And I'm surprised you didn't enjoy john wick, I thought for sure that'd be up your alley.
How come covenant is a 9/10 for you? I'm curious, because I couldn't get over quite a few things, and I really wanted it to be awesome (I really liked prometheus too)
My response disappeared??? WTF. lol
