I don't really get how you can state that he got indeed somewhat memorable stuff before his breakout hit , while downplaying Lawrence doing at least the same .

She was actually gathering huge critical appraisal before Xmen and building her portfolio likewise . Like in Winter's bone , an Oscar nominated movie that got her various awards and nominations . She was in a multiple seasons spanning tv serie too ( crap show i'd say but ...) etc etc

You forget that Cooper was virtually unknown even in the days of of the hit tv show Alias . To the point he himself admitted a few random thought of suicide and doubts about his career

His real boff office break through was with the Hangover in 2011 , pretty much the same year she made her big mainstream wave too with Xmen origins .

Both have been on a meteoric rise both critically and on box office , pretty much at the same time , apart and then together wit...

Not good enough . I dont feel like settling for "just better than the awful previous two" . Not when you follow two classic movies (and a surpringly great tv show)

And there is no way not to compare it to the only worthwhile Terminator when it essentially revisit and rearrange those plots

I'm not sure i understand , arent they just adding another set of assassins , when all of them were never accounted for ?

And isnt it essentially better than ruining existing ones , while potentially adding more to the mythos ?

It's rather idiotic to have Sidious there for reasons mentioned above , and as much as he wants to dimiss it , he still basically won , even if it's ephemeral , which places him above the fray . besides be it previously canon stuff and books turned irrelevant by the new universe , or the new canon future , the galaxy hasnt quite recovered from his influence .

Sauron's presence doesnt make much sense either . He still basically gets physically defeated , and yet ma...

Well you're entitled to your opinion , but it's not as if anyone in the first trilogy , Except Harrison Ford , ooze charisma among the heroes .

Sure those went on to proves themselves and play great and classic characters , but you can't tell me that Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher didnt look as generic than the upcoming cast . And they werent much older than "kids" like John Boyega

I'm not seeing it . Even the so called "good" first part was incredibly run of the mill . It just wasnt what you'd expect from a F4 movie , but hardly as innovative as its defenders make it .

The early origin pile on cheese and tropes like the kid Reed knocking out the power grid with his garage teleporter experiment .... being ridiculed and almost bullied by his teacher ... and it happening again when older at a science fair .

We also got...

Hum everything about the premise is gender specific . The era , the name , the fact that it borrow mostly famous male characters from classic tales in again an era where gender equity isnt a thing ...

And there is yet another problem beyond that , it's again filmakers "knowing better" than the author and the original books , and throwing everything away from it , yet AGAIN .

Mina Haker was already the central character , no need to take it furt...

It's actually taking lots of liberties and a vastly different path from the movie , wich isnt a bad thing . And the result is so far awesome . Can't wait for season 2.

Sounds like the last person i wanted for the role .

oh come on , as if people wouldnt also scoff at an all male cast for a Charlie's angels reboot or sequel , or Sex in the city with an all men cast ... It just wouldnt be the same .

I feel they sold this movie with that premise: Female Ghostbusters , I think that's sexist approach right from the get go , to generate any kind of pr and heat

Not digging the idea doesnt mean you're against women or sexist , except obvious trolls .

That's weird considering Revolutions and Reloaded were shot together .. making it basically the two parts of a same movie .. There is is hardly some tonal shift between the two ...

It was that bad imo , even if not the worst movie ever but deserving of all the flak it received . There wasnt actually much dialogues , wich isnt a flaw in itself . Except that when it did , it either made little sense and lacked oomph , or was completed mangled by poor and wooden acting . It even made the acting from Jake Loyd and Hayden Christensen in Phantom menace looks good .

People dont just hate or dislike the movie because of the nepotism and some newfound negativity...

When has he ever owned up to his own screw ups ? It's always somehow a public that doesnt understand and/or a studio or actors impeding his work .

He's an average director whom found a nice gimmick once , and riding on the coattail of ONE lucky break and good movie . And i actually wouldnt fault him for not manageing to reach those heights again ... it happens and he would at least try .

But then he speaks that way , and negates any will to give him s...

the Superman Man of Steel costume was actually bright , it's the work on photography and filters that gave it such a bleak and colorless feel .

Just sayong that it can obviously be toned down to various levels if they want to

Around Civil War in the comics he's in no way or shape a teenager , but probably well into 25-30 years after even having careers as a photograph , then school teacher .

Anyway even if it is a fake script (it doesnt some of the stuff announced officially today ) , i dont see the major issues with SPiderman "just being a boy" , we've known that all along for a while ... and in the context of the movie it will make more sense than the way it was handled in the ...

I think he layed the foundations enough for others , and he probably wanna pursue projects he left behind for years because of Avengers .

Would be nice he if comes back eventually someday or at least direct for another marvel property ..

Either way , i'm digging the tonal shift every new movie or gorup of movies , instead of treading into familiar waters

When you disagree with the casting to that level , not a lot can be done usually .

Sure you might in all fairness admit that the actor did great , but if you feel he or she is miscast , there it goes ... with of course exceptions .

See as an example , i actually love Sir Ian McKellen , and through no fault of his own , i'll just never be fan of his Magneto . He lacked power and charisma for me .

If Gadot nail her role and makes the movi...

It's supposed to feel overwhelming and cluttered

Luke cage and iron fist are already coming on tv , Black Panther is getting his movie (but bumped to a later date because of the new spiderman deal) , Deathlok was already in Agents of Shield .
