Ditto Black Mamba in Kill Bill, although at least Tarantino was good enough to allow Vivica A. Fox's character to call bullshit on that.

No shit? In that case, all they need to do to redeem the DCU is cast Samuel L Jackson and go for an R-rating on language alone. I know he's already Nick Fury, but if Affleck and Reynolds can have one foot in each universe, all is fair.

Who's going to play Black Manta? I hope it's Daniel Day-Lewis.

I guess there's no accounting for taste; personally I think Armageddon is just as big a pile of excrement as those others. In any event, the amount of snark Affleck shows on the DVD commentary track suggests that he's got some good behind-the-scenes stories to tell.

I don't know if I'm as hard on the movie as that, but I'd love to have seen more of Jackson's interactions with Hurt too.

Yes, it's definitely worth checking out. The acting is terrific all around (and in 2002, it was Exhibit B in proving that Affleck was actually a decent actor [Dogma was Exhibit A]), it's got some great dialogue, and it's not nearly as much of a "message movie" as the trailer would have you believe.

"He's young, he'll walk again… but he'll stay scared." Daaamn, that was some cold shit.

Snyder must have read it and thought, "This is pretty good, but it would be way cooler if Batman killed people left and right. And if it had less colors."

I never really thought about it, but I suppose every movie will eventually have a 30th anniversary, so thanks for that, I guess…

Upvoted, but Fassbinder's my answer for everything.

I have no interest in more Batman movies for the time being. What I DO want to see, however, is a reality show where real-life billionaires compete for the chance to become a real-life Batman. Can't you just picture Marks Zuckerberg and Cuban fighting over who gets to drive the Batmobile first?

Cavill was good in 'The Tudors' as well, so I'm coming down on whichever side blames Zack Snyder.

When Affleck writes his memoirs, I look forward to reading the chapters that cover Armageddon, Reindeer Games, Gigli, Daredevil, and BvS:DoJ.

Anything involving Sheila Chandra whispering, like this track. Holy shit…

Thanks for sharing! The awesome pic of Bruce with Bolo Fucking Yeung is a nice bonus.

As regards Ignatius J. Reilly, I'm unable to see anyone but Jack Black playing him. Heck, he's probably pushing a hot dog stand around his neighborhood while dressed like a pirate and quoting 19th century philosophy RIGHT NOW.

Last I heard, they had renounced their ways, but given Trump's ascendancy and now this, they might start to think that they were just ahead of the curve.

Fuckity fuck fuck fuck… at this rate there isn't going to be anyone good left by June. RIP Garry.

I suppose you could buy a ticket for Deadpool and sneak into BvS:DoJ instead, but that wouldn't be very nice.

The singularity is near. I, for one, welcome our new female teenage neo-Nazi overlords.
