Man, I wish that was the movie we got, too. Just that one change and instantly the film is at least halfway better.

Yeah, I’ve always been the same way, too. I think that’s why I gravitated the most toward Mortal Kombat. Its lore was usually the readily-present in its games, and rather consistent, too!

As someone who enjoyed the hell out of it and is waiting on pins and needles for the Phantom Liberty dlc, thank you for working on it. The hard work has paid off, and there will be moments from this game I will remember forever. You guys deserve at least twenty medals for all the bullshit you’ve likely had to go…

Lizzy Caplan is excellent casting, but I’ll be very curious to know how they plan on sustaining over multiple episodes the same kind of tension the original movie did in only two hours.

Okay, I was already cautiously optimistic based off of the surprisingly-solid trailers, but hearing these two writers talk inside-baseball about how they made their script reflect the dynamics of different tabletop players’ playstyles in a way that shows they apparently know how to actually make a satisfyingly characte…

Sounds like we need a double feature night to see who is right!

Weirdly, I have come across a few people who did like it. They’re not the sort of people to go through the trouble of expressing their opinions online, but apparently the combo of “action action MORE ACTION” with “Hey, I remember that thing!” really is enough to delight a more sizable portion of film audiences than I…

It turned into Cracked.com so gradually, we didn’t even realize it was happening.

I don’t know if I’ve just Stockholm Syndrome-d myself into liking the movie, or not, but I see Newt and Hicks’ deaths as a feature, not a bug.

Seriously. How about instead of giving us yet another prequel/inter-quel/alternate reality prequel... give us something that takes place LATER and isn’t beholden to all the continuity (that inevitably gets messed up anyway)!?

I also enjoyed Beyond! Felt the most classic “Trek” of any of the three new movies to me (boy, did I really not like Into Darkness).

Hey, obviously taste is subjective and far be it for me to tell you how you should feel, but I just know that for me, personally, I would MUCH rather watch Waterworld over something like, say, Verotika.

And considering that Harper is “surprisingly jacked” (actual quote from The Good Place), he should be able to handle the Superman part well, too.

This movie right here is why I’m not excited for a new Peter Pan movie for at least... 40 more years.

Didn’t we already get this exact same movie twenty years ago?

This. This right here is why my eyes glaze over when I think of Star Wars in general right now.

Watch as this leads even more people who don’t know the difference between viral and bacterial infections to think this somehow “proves” vaccines are hurting us.

I dunno, that makes me feel bad for him even less.

Luckily, there’s always a chance next year. Some seem to consistently stay in rotation (Totoro, Spirited and Mononoke, especially), but this year is the first time I recall them including Castle In the Sky in quite some time (my son’s really stoked about that).

My son’s delighted that they’re including Castle In the Sky this year. That’s his all-time favorite movie, but for some reason, it kept being overlooked in years’ past.
