Smallpox for all!

Gladiator 2: Gladiate This.

Ridley Scott returning a movie universe he created some years previously. What’s the worst that could possibly happen...?

That deserves a round of applause.

“Youtubers” are a fucking scourge.

I give it 6-12 months.

A far cry from the guy who threw his controller on the floor after losing a tournament the other day (there’s a video elsewhere on the site). The world needs more gracious losers.

I’ve long held that theory (I have a longer post outlining my thoughts elsewhere on this post, it might still be in the greys), and Raimi more-or-less admitted it, as he was absolutely against Venom and wasn’t best pleased at Sony forcing him to work it into the script, so he said “fuck it” and made the movie as silly…

That was one of the (few!) things the Amazing movies did right; introducing Gwen Stacy as Peter’s love interest before MJ, even if it meant we all knew how that was going to end up.

I’ve always been adamant that Sam Raimi set out to sabotage this movie after Sony’s insistence that Venom be crammed into the already stuffed plot.

Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not some farcical aquatic ceremony!

More kills than anyone else in the Belgian Air Force.

Saved for future use!

This. This x 1,000. From the general principle (it’s a Lego knock-off through-and-through), to the generally piss-poor quality, there are few reasons to like Megabloks.

Police Academy, that well known family-friendly movie, had a Saturday morning cartoon too.

Came here to say exactly this. Routh was a great fit for the part, and the plane rescue was classic big-screen Superman. It’s just a shame the movie’s kind of a mess after that, and Luthor’s get-rich-from-”new”-real-estate plan just apes his “new west coast” plan from the first movie.

As the Simpsons once taught us, “A wizard did it.”

This goes for Facebook too. I find their application likes to “helpfully” turn auto-play back on when it updates.

Indeed, I got through the first paragraph when a pop-over asked me to sign up for Kotaku’s newsletter, like it does on every damn article I open on this site. Things like that are more likely to drive me elsewhere rather than actually sign up.

Let’s chop it up, chop-chop it up, and serve it with linguine!
