Ghostbusters II is non-canon.

Box Office is irrelevant in terms of cultural capital. Avatar made $749 million in 2009 and practically disappeared; everyone knows Scarface, yet it only made $44 million, and didn't make the top 15 box office of 1983.

Great. The made for TV movie aesthetics of Marvel are the one thing DC really need to copy.

No, Rocky was four great movies and then one total write off.

It's easy if you split it into syllables. Al-phonse A-lo-y-sius Dowd.

I can only assume Yuri Boyka turns up post-credits looking to prove himself as the most complete fighter in the world.

Not only is Ignatiy the best film critic in 2016, he's also the most handsome.

I saw it for the first time only about a year ago and absolutely don't get the hype around Eddie Murphy. In both this and Beverly Hills Cop, there seem to be visible gaps left for him to ad-lib and all he ever does is quickly imply someone else is a gay racist. I was really pleased when he had the fight scene with

I recently rewatched Top Gun and while I still really like it, I was surprised by how little action is in it. I assume that's because all those scenes were done with the real planes so cost a fortune to shoot. The only thing I can give to it that Aliens lacked is the style: the pastel colours, the bombastic music, the

It's really bad. It looks ugly, the plotting feels really first draft and nobody in the cast wants to be there besides for Peter MacNicol. If opinions developed in childhood are valid, I'd rank it next to Return of the Jedi and TMNT III for films that felt like a cash in even when I was about 10 years old.

Roland is so clearly supposed to be High Plains Drifter era Clint Eastwood that I prefer them going in an all new direction instead of trying to find someone like that today.

Are there any hi-res images of the back and sides of Kate McKinnon's head? I'm trying to figure out her haircut. I think it's a tight ponytail that doesn't include the top but I can't tell.

To accurately represent the tone of the books, the film will about about 80% through and then Stephen King will appear on screen with a megaphone, corralling everyone and forcing the credits to start rolling.

I can reach out… but I cannot touch.

Oz is full of nasty stuff but that can't be beaten for me. What would you rank as worse?

That's also used in The Breakfast Club, if I remember correctly, so it's more a sign of the times than it is something particularly homophobic from Shane Black.

I know Kristen Stewart aligned herself with the wrong children's franchise with Twilight instead of signing up with Marvel but surely enough time has passed since then that we can now accept she, like her co-star Robert Pattinson, is actually good. Adventureland, Clouds of Sils Maria and Still Alice stand out as

Are you Alex Jones? EDIT: Now I've seen your other posts, it's pretty clear you're Kevin Sorbo.

The bottom line for movie studios is so reliant now on conservative countries like China that they have to play to their censors whether the creatives like it or not.
