I saw UPGRADE and VENOM and definitely preferred UPGRADE, starring bootleg Tom Hardy. (Fun Fact: Logan Marshall-Green has an identical twin brother — who I met years ago — so there are THREE of these guys! At least 3!)

JOKER: INTO THE JOKERVERSE!

I remember seeing it when it came out in theaters and — though I recognized it was cheaper than the cartoon series, I really loved it.

Still stands as one of the most iconic and intimidating onscreen villain performances of all time, IMHO. Zero fat on that performance. Even when he eventually gets the pulp beaten out of him and he’s dragged into the police station, he just spits blood on their files and says “Just give me my fucking phone call.” Not…

One of my favorite lines.  Simple, economic.  Reveals this character’s worldview.  One of the biggest laughs.

Thank you. I kept watching for far too long out of this sense of “I don’t like this but I just want to see where this goes.”  But it just makes no sense.

I’d love Paul Thomas Anderson to direct some random video game adaptation like SUPER SMASH BROS: THE MOVIE just to confuse people some more.

It annoys me that the sequel to John Singleton’s 2000 movie “SHAFT” is just called “SHAFT”.

Jimmy Smits never ages so he can always play that character!

It definitely picks up after we meet Alan.

YES!  I avoided the trailer because I saw a headline somewhere that said to just watch the show without reading or seeing anything.  I’m surprised they spoiled that so quickly.

A massive Gwynne-shaped hole!  Agreed, everything around that distinctive hole looks pretty good....

I’m all for the remake and for trying things they couldn’t do with the original Mary Lambert adaptation, but it’s hard for me to hear Lithgow’s line-reading of that iconic “dead is better...” without comparing it to Fred Gwynne’s performance.  It feels... off.  Intentionally thrown away.  Which might have been the…

What kind of Avatar smokes marijuana at his own confirmation?? Be a good N’avi for fifteen fucking minutes—is that so much to ask?!
