Annabelle was the single most racist horror movie I've ever seen. The black woman's sole purpose in life was to be taken by a demon so that a white woman could save her kid without making that sacrifice herself.

It's one of those movies that is bad to look at objectively even a little bit… the Warrens in the first movie are surprisingly pushy about their Catholicism. I don't think I've ever seen an exorcism movie where scared non-religious people were explicitly told to convert before. And also, that the Salem witches were…
Imagine if they hid Will Smith's involvement until opening day, and he just strode out and said "Welcome to the moon." It would make so much money.
Avatar on the small screen is just…sad. It was a surprisingly engrossing film to see it in IMAX 3D, but when you put it on a normal TV it's hard to avoid how much the Na'vi live in the Uncanny Valley, with their butts hanging out and their boobs covered by Blue Lagoon hair or necklaces.
Does Apocalypse give her that costume? Because it's hard not to imagine the 1990s Apocalypse really talking up how she symbolizes the SEXINESS OF OBLIVION.
Will Arnett was in the first one too, I think. I seem to recall a complaint about how he spent the entire time hitting on Megan Fox.
Or that level filled with instant kill electrical seaweed and underwater lasers?
"From the director of Dredd…. Power Rangers!"
Post Russky?
"Something something PURITY OF OBLIVION"
My main exposure to him was the 90s cartoon, and he shapeshifted a lot, was super strong, could shoot powerful beam weapons, change his size, and was pretty smart and psychic. But most of all, he was just an indestructible brick wall. No one ever really beat him up, they just broke his toy and he would leave.
I'd be really interested to see the jury selection. At this point it seems like people are either disgusted by the man or are putting their fingers in their ears and mumbling about how rape victims get some nebulous profit out of their accusations.
On days like that, I liked to turn on the Animatrix Second Renaissance and root for the machines.
Giving commencements speeches about how we should be afraid of the real world, when we really should have been afraid of him.
I wonder if it's not a combination of special effects not being quite ready for it, and needing a person and team that can really sell CGI acting.
I watched a movie about Maori once. It was not mellow. It was like someone gave the Orcs from LOTR a lot of cocaine.
I've gradually been purging my shelves a few books at a time and just giving them to the local library. Checking out books from there has also stopped my book accumulation too for the most part.
Blizzard has been letting people do character based deathmatches for so long in WoW, it makes sense to me that they'd put up a game where you could follow the essentials of what is happening really well.
I've definitely enjoyed her take on the character and her chemistry with Xavier and Magneto, but I couldn't fault her for not wanting that much naked makeup. Daniel Craig got sick of James Bond and all he has to do is wear a nice suit all the time.
You'd think that of all the mutants, Mystique would be the easiest to recast.
