He has more meh movies than successful or failures. As long as he just goes for telling a good story then it’s worth watching once. Using twists as a gimmick was unnecessary in a lot of his movies. If it feels more shoehorned in instead of feeling natural, then he’s lucky if his movie ends in just being meh.

Luckily this one of the few places to have some debate on message board without it automatically turning into just snark and insults.

The whole scifi/fantasy is niche is another topic to debate about. But I can agree that general audiences or casual fans won’t be in a rush for everyone of those that comes out. Maybe once or twice a year they’ll feel that kind of anticipation. 

I agree with Gella that when it comes to making movies or shows, that there is still a lot of sexism or misogyny BS to still deal with. But at least it can be pushed back and brought to light to have a bigger debate than it was 20 years ago or even back in the 20th Century.

I never could finish the show. I enjoyed it of course. But it’s good character drama was just wave after wave of sad gasms. And it came out at the time everything was just bleak and depressing, so I had to pass on that. But up until I passed up on the final episodes I enjoyed it. It was a good funny depressing tragic…

Well some good counter points from you. No arguments there. In the end like I said, regarding Stephen Dorff it’s just another opinion on whether or not superhero movies are garbage these days. Some people said they’re garbage in any day. And it is what it is on whatever quality comes out and the end results financially…

In terms of comparing Blade to many superhero films both DC and MCU, some before Avengers: Endgame, and some after, Blade 1 and Blade 2 (debatable to some) are better than those. That being said, Blade was R rated. It was intended to be R rated, so they had more flexibility to do things both in language, violence,…

I can’t blame you for feeling that way. I enjoyed season 5 and still like the show. But, it was pushing myself as well as others suspension of disbelief.

Oh yeah. Agreed. It got cartoonish by season 2 school gang karate fight. But it was fun and for the most part accepted for what it was. By season 5 though, that’s when I felt my suspension of disbelief had reached its limit.

I think this is the first time I can say Netflix ending a show that I personally like seems fitting this time. It lasted six seasons. The first couple of seasons were on Youtube. It seems to have mosty concluded overall it’s main story points. Many fans of the show were starting to feel it should come to an end soon…

It’s kind of common sense. To each their own. Those who don’t care to play the video games, just watch youtube videos about the game if you’re curious. Give it a couple of weeks you’ll see new uploads detailing the differences between the game and the show.

That’s fair. On both points. Some shows are worth waiting weekly. And you’re right, gotta be ready for a bleak outlook if watching that many hours in a week.

I’ll binge this when the season ends instead of doing weekly episodes. So I got a while to wait before I see anything. In the meantime I can adjust my expectations as word of mouth goes about. Makes it easier to know what to expect. So I’m fully aware of the love/hate the show has gotten beforehand, and am curious to…

So, the 4 episode miniseries was barely passable, and that’s only because I could skip forward if I was getting bored. If you didn’t have that option then yeah, it’s understandable if you couldn’t finish it.

Control as a TV series could work. But it would be expensive as a mostly on set for locations. It would have to alter many ways to execute the story since a lot of the story involves finding and reading documents. It can be done, just more of a technical challenge. Still, better chances as a show than as a movie.

I think they’re remaking Clue.

So Amazon is doing Fallout, while Netflix decided to go with with Horizon. Now Amazon is going for both Mass Effect and now God of War. We got HBO’s Last of Us. Oh, and Netflix Bioshock movie. Ok, what’s next? Death Stranding? Dishonored? Some kind of Final Fantasy? Oh can’t forget Disney +, so maybe Animal Crossing…

I understand theater operators being pissed off since it messes with their livelihood. They deserve at least a fighting chance to balance things out for them. But it’s really studios and not filmmakers usually that make the call for the space between theatrical run and streaming and even coming out on disc. For many…

Salvation had the opportunity to restart it while keeping connections with the original two films and blew it. Genisys had the opportunity to use the original movies as a gimmick for nostalgia and still failed. And Dark Fate had the opportunity to start directly from T2 but go in another direction and still failed.…

It is what it is. It came, and it failed. It has fans. And it has people that hate it for different reasons. I didn’t care for it, but I understand that usually when people get together to work on a project, they kind of believe in what they’re doing. So it would make sense at the time Cameron thought it was going to…
