Yeah, you’re not wrong. The whole subplot involving M’s history is pretty great, too, and also presages Silva’s motivation in Skyfall. And hell, I thought the oil pipeline travel was pretty spiffy, too.

...and would have done a better job in the part.

Well, in that old MTV claymation series, Celebrity Deathmatch, in addition to their faces they also switched butts, so it’s not like there isn’t precedent.

You want to make this the best film possible?

Hey, as long as no Martians are around.

The one part of that movie that I wish was in a better Bond film is Bond’s whole dynamic with Elektra King.

(Raises Hand)

....really? Huh.

Nope. Just watch the climax of Gerald’s Game, instead. MUCH less traumatizing... /s

Unfortunately, it’s starring Gerard Butler, so my belief in the film being any good is quite low.

Huh. I thought Bond fans actually wanted to forget that one?

It’s amazing how effortlessly Cheadle started racking up the memorable moments with what could have been little more than a recurring walk-on part.

This exactly how I feel about Cheadle as War Machine, too. I initially thought the rapport between his version of Rhodie and Stark had so much less spark, because I had liked how well Tony was able to needle the Rhodes of the first film, while Cheadle’s was too even-keeled to get that flustered with him.

Man, if only something like this could have really worked. (Also, I learned a hell of a lot more reasons to hate Drumpf and his family)

Eh, considering how solid my Mickey Mouse impersonating skills are, my kids have never been wanting when it comes to chatting with him. Now, some of the other characters... maybe.

Apologies for trolling, but I just wanted to add that Multiverse of Madness would have been better had it been a good horror movie using the superhero genre as window dressing... but as someone who on some level unironically enjoys trash like ALIEN: Resurrection, the Masters of the Universe movie, and even Rise of…

Yeah, it’s depressing how often the “safe,” conservative (not as in politically... though, sometimes that, too, but by being slow to change its perspective) and overall bland choices will be what’s rewarded up the nose by the academy.

This is still my biggest bone to pick, too. Can’t friggin’ believe it to this day.

I don’t know, but I really wish we could. Between not letting us delete comments, or being able to edit them after 15 minutes of posting, it’s like Kinja WANTS all teh stupid comments to be forever.

Indeed we shall, my Norwegian/Danish/English sovereign friend!
