Not offended at all- and thanks- I hope I meet my goal too :)
So far I am quite pleased with the sheer variety of films I've encountered.
I also wanted to comment that I have no intentions of ever repeating this self-imposed goal, haha.
Haha, I assure it's not the most difficult task. It's all about boring time-management.
-For the record this is Zack from the article. I recently graduated college, have a part-time job and would like to think I still fit a decent amount of socializing into my life :)
Actually saw an early screening without 3D. I guess they're isn't a lot in theatres these days- besides the prestige pics which I've gotten around to checking out- so the Green Hornet seems like one of the better offerings. If this was a summer release...may have judged this film on a harsher basis.
I wouldn't put any faith in a studio. Some blame Fox for the latest Wolverine debaucle, I choose to blame the script.
WB may have had a hand in The Dark Knight, but let's also not forget a little man named Christopher Nolan who directed and co-wrote the darned thing. It's often the talent involved that makes a movie good (regardless of the studio producing).
Heck in the past year, WB produced such franchise films including Clash of the Titans ...
It's odd that you mention DC (I'm not really a fanboy of either- so I don't have a dog in the fight)when Green Lantern is looking (from the trailer at least) to hit a lot of the same notes that Iron Man hit: goofy main character who's a lady's man that eventually matures a bit to save the world (not that it doesn't look fun).
I just hope the continuity gambit pays off and we get something pretty epic when the dust settles
Saw it already. 7/10 seems about right. Honestly, I have a hard time fully figuring out whether or not I liked this film. There were some genuinley funny moments and some of the action scenes were filmed in a very exciting/kinetic way. However, there were serveral scenes and choices in the plotting that really befuddled me and left me scratching my head. Still to be surprised by any film these days...
Haha, are you saying are choices are that bad? I mean, I (this being Zack) am no fan of Biodome- but I wouldn't wish Armageddon in its stead (probably).
