Gas prices won’t move the Hybrid/EV adoption until prices of Hybrid and EV’s are in line with Gas vehicles. Operationally EV’s are cheaper but that doesn’t matter for the average person when looking at the upfront cost of purchasing a new vehicle. 

I had always hoped that Donner would go back and have the movie rescored or at the very least have had a 2nd audio track on the dvd/blu ray with an alternate score. 

I don’t think Maverick or Conspiracy Theory get enough love. Donner had a very solid run of movies and they were diverse. His Superman commentary is one of my favourite to listen too. 

Smart TV’s are a complete waste of money in my opinion. The apps are generally never updated and run poorly. I have a Smart Roku tv and the apps don’t support 24fps, update occasionally but generally that will break something. 

What is with the giant helmet in that picture. The costume looks something like the Batman Beyond costume but the helmet makes it look like a Funko  Pop. 

I don’t know, I personally think Speed Racer is an under-rated gem. 

Wages are only one part of the retail equation. The bigger issue in my opinion is the prevalence of on demand scheduling and too much reliance on sale data. It ignores the human aspect that workers don’t exist to solely fill in a gap on the schedule and do have lives outside. And to be honest this type of scheduling…

This is exactly the problem, if Brad Bird or some of the other rumored directors had been involved the new trilogy could have been great. I like the Force Awakens but when you look at the scrapped concept art, it could have been so much better. Letting Abrams write the 1st movie was the biggest mistake. To me the…

I liked Can’t hardly wait but it seemed to be missing something. It felt cut down.

So I have no issue with Velma being East Indian, I do have a problem with live action adaptions of comics/cartoons/video games etc , leaving out the real draw. Maybe it’s because I was a child of the 80's where every comic book/cartoon adaption was embarrassed (and or lacked the technology) of the source material.

I think for me Man of Steel was as a big a disappointment as Superman Returns. Both movies are 2 sides of the same coin, Superman returns is too boring and Man of Steel seems like an over correction of that, going to much into action. Both of them have a main character who is distant from the audience. 

I would have put Bill Whitaker near the bottom. Not that he was a bad guy but he you could tell his field was as a news anchor. He was very dry. 

I really enjoyed this movie but what I remember most is the giant stand in advertising the movie in the theatre. I actually really miss going to the theater and seeing those big cutouts. 

I agree, it’s really the only part of the movie that actually feels like it’s an Indy movie. It’s also the only part of the movie that looks like it was not filmed on a soundstage. The movie does such a poor job of making the sets look like real locations.

I’m actually looking forward to this. Mangold is a good director and having fresh eyes on the series could be just what it needs. Ford clearly enjoys the character. If nothing else we won’t have to look at Janusz Kaminski’s blown out cinematography. 

I grew up with Marvel as a kid and spent years watching poor direct to video representation of my favorite characters. Even after X-men , Spiderman and Iron Man came out, the moment I felt like Marvel was finally honoring it’s comic book roots was when the Hellicarrier emerged from the water.

It’s a great summer movie, if I have only 2 criticisms of it is that Cap’s outfit looks terrible with the helmet on, and the opening action scene is pretty lackluster. Something about the way it’s shot and the bland sets makes it stand out from the rest of the movie.

For me the only part of Spiderman 2 that stands out is the train fight, the rest just doesn’t sit with me. I never really bought into Kirsten and Tobey in the roles and I think 2 makes things worse, as neither one really feels like they want to be there. The amazing spiderman series is a mess but I would argue the…

And let’s be honest, aside from the last act, Whedon didn’t really do that much other then shoot a few scenes to gloss over what had to be cut. His inserted humor was bad for sure, and stands out like a sore thumb. It really surprised me after watching the Snyder cut , that Whedon’s cut was just a cliff notes version…

I think you are right that Nolan didn’t want to make The Dark Knight Rises. The movie it most closely reminds me of is Godfather Part III. Batman/Michael Corleone are completely different characters at the start of the movie, previous supporting characters are sidelined, ie. Gordon, Alfred/Tom Hagen. Production design…
