John Hurt was more of a "guest" doctor as I understand it. He's also a bit past his top-billed-in-major-films phase.
I guess so, but not on the level of Pegg, who's been top billed in a number of films and has a plum supporting role in a major franchise.
I loved the blankets-and-cups stuff. And Abed continuously swathing Troy in blankets was also a nice callback to blanketsburg!
I thought he was referring to the tone of sportscasts and commentary, moreso than fans. I don't think the players really enter into it; like actors (similarly dumb), they're just ingredients to be manipulated by the coach (director) into a larger whole, and not the baseline for the medium itself.
Counterpoint: Please continue to write about sports EXACTLY like this.
A little too mature, honestly. I've got nothing but admiration for a comedy that can successfully work in sophisticated themes and messages while still being funny; in this case, though, it seemed like the message came first and the comedy came in a distant second.
I thought this was the one where Nick Frost really shined. He turned in a legitimately great performance and had the funniest moments as well.
I agree, but allowing that humor/enjoyment levels are a matter of opinion, I'd say that it's nowhere near as inventive as the other two, either. With Shaun and Hot Fuzz, I got the impression that they came up with these great ideas and then turned them into movies. With World's End, it seemed like they started with…
I agree with this. I thought it was actually pretty depressing (even before they got to the sci fi stuff). It seemed to begin with the premise that pub crawling is an inherently deadbeat, alcoholic undertaking — which, hey, that's more or less true, but come on, I don't watch madcap comedies to get that kind of…
I'd guess it's probably more because playing the doctor these days is something of launching pad to a larger career — and he's far beyond needing that at this point — than anything to do with liking or not liking the show itself.
I loved Breaking Bad as much as the next guy but this idea that "even Bryan Cranston couldn't save this" is ridiculous; he's been in a ton of crappy movies/TV shows.
Just as long as he leaves the guitar at home.
Really, the only reason not to go is the ridiculous lodging logistics. If I had family that close to the event I'd be there very year.
Like a full year after the hype had finally passed I got around to listening to her album. I thought it was pretty good, honestly. Catchy songs, excellent production, lovely voice. I think the reason why she was never accepted the way Lorde is mostly comes down to resentment about her background, and really, who cares…
I've had something of a Queen renaissance the last few months; noticing that the local library had most of their albums I've been revisiting them one by one. I'd forgotten just how goddam terrific they were.
I've read it, though like 15 years ago so I'm a little fuzzy on plot details., But I remember liking it a lot; and it's really brief, you could probably breeze through it in a single day.
The Warrens were central figures in the Amityville case, too, and that's pretty widely believed to have been a total hoax. So, in that light, this movie is as much of a true story as the original Amityville Horror.
I think the way the Salem witch trials are referenced here is pretty insidious (sorry for the wan pun). These kinds of movies bring in teenagers by the boatload, and I'm going to go ahead and assume that today's teenager doesn't know much about that historical event and is likely to take this movie's interpretation as…
I was hoping (and expecting based on its reviews/popularity) a scarier movie, too. I agree with the comments advocating for a more ambiguous ending. Wrapping everything up nice and neat just doesn't fit make for a scary movie.
