It probably doesn’t help that the movie has the same plot blueprint as the first movie, but with Bob and Helen’s role swapped. The villain of the last movie turned out to be the person who hired the main character in the first place via a proxy, and the same ends up being the case in the sequel.

The Crowd is such a fantastic movie. I was wondering if someone else was going to bring up the similarities between those two shots.

Even the trailer did all but scream “We’re showing so much of Bob Odenkirk to tip you off he's not the villain"

that’ll show him!

Do you all ever get bored saying shit like “toxic masculinity?”

Im still pissed.  Hayley Atwell is so damn great and she was given such good material to work with.  Damn you Disney!

I’ll do you one better, WHY?

not like you really have another option right now, but, try to remember:

I didn’t mind Murder on the Orient Express, but direction-wise it seemed quite bland compared to Branagh’s earlier films, as did the Jack Ryan film. I heard much the same about Cinderella and I doubt Artemis Fowl breaks the streak.

Death On The Nile has already been greenlighted. Looking forward to that.

Wow, The AV Club really wants J.K. Rowling tarred-and-feathered, or maybe quartered. We get it, lady bad, and bad lady give you clicks. You can stop now, thanks.

I only wish Bugs and Mickey got a scene as great and memorable as Donald and Daffy. As the marquee characters of their respective brands, they deserved it. (But as my favorite characters of their respective brands, I’m glad the Ducks got what they got)

A half star for you, Sir.  Completely agreed, except for Interview with the Vampire having “a lot of problems...” :P

The Kardashians will be forgotten within a generation or two.

What I like most about that era was the variety of types of movies you saw being released. There were definitely sequels (though nowhere near as many as we’ve seen in recent years; remakes were practically unheard of in the era) and big budget popcorn fare. But there were also a lot of mid-budget dramas, like this…

And maybe you could get away with it if they fought Gozer in isolation with no witnesses... But the whole damn borough saw the noise, fury, destruction, and a 100-ft marshmallow man

Gad!  It’s elder abuse!  Alert CPS!

That made that easy on themselves by making sure they only ever appeared as pairs in the movie.

A Fish Called Wanda, Die Hard, Beetlejuice and Big are all cruddy movies? SURE thing. 

I’ve always been willing to see what Kenneth Branagh is up to because it’s bound to be interesting but Josh Gad is one of those people that whenever I learn is involved in a project I immediately lose enthusiasm.
