And replace them with utterly boring ones, apparently

Honestly, I just think it’s annoying that Luke was an utter failure in building a Jedi  order, and it will be left to Rey. Though I suppose Luke could still be counted as its founder, even if his training of Rey, from what we see on screen, was pretty inadequate. 

Rey is annoyingly successful in everything she does, but at least she gets beat up a lot. Really, my main criticism for Rey is not for being a Mary Sue, but for being a very bland, thinly written character. Daisy Ridley is charming and does what she can, but the writing for Rey (or for the other new characters aside…

I hate the overuse of the word “Mary Sue” so much. Like “Deus ex machina”, it’s one of those literary terms that has hit the mainstream, and has led to its constant overuse and misuse

Yeah, I’m getting a huge Mass Effect 3 ending vibe...

The problem is, people do go into a Star Wars movie with certain expectations, even if they are vague ones. We want to see a lightsaber battle. We want to see a movie centered around Luke Skywalker not depict one of the most iconic characters in all of fiction as a total coward and failure, and undo all the character…

Yeah, I know Jezebel is pretty much bottom rock when it comes to “research” or any of those other pesky journalistic things, but that’s totally wrong. Critics, generally, liked it. Mass audiences and social media hated it. 

I would love for them to do a season or movie of The Punisher in the “Marvel movie” style. Lots of quips and a lighthearted tone... except it just happens to be ultra R-rated violent. Somewhat like Deadpool, I suppose. 

I disagree. I think whenever the Punisher’s not on screen, all the other characters need to be saying, “where’s the Punisher?”

In my head, the CIA dude wasn’t Jimmy Olsen, but just a guy using Jimmy Olsen’s credentials. Makes it less horrible

Ha, that’s what I’ve been saying about MOS for so long, oddly I’ve never heard anyone else say it. Man of Steel is the perfect Dragon Ball Z movie.

Man of Steel gets the core message of Superman wrong, but I love that movie, just as I love The Matrix: Revolutions, and it’s for the same reason. Both movies are the live action Dragon Ball Z movie I always wanted as a kid.

People say that, and I feel like I watched a different movie than those guys did. It didn’t undermine Thor; in fact, this was the first movie in the entire MCU where I felt like I was truly seeing the God of Thunder in action. That scene where he learned to control lightning without his hammer near the end was great. T…

Yeah, I don’t think that’s a very fair thing to say. I mean, take away the visuals (and the music) of both Blade Runner films, and see what’s left.

I think what it comes down to is an argument you see in a lot of Marvel vs DC movies debates. One (John Wick) is a fun time. The one is SUPER serious, and as a result, kinda comes off as a little pretentious and self-important

I’d argue, then, that it makes it a loving homage (in the way every single Tarantino movie is a homage to something else) rather than a parody or satire. Embraces the wacky elements, and doesn’t appear embarrassed by them. John Wick is basically a statement to the audience: “hey, it’s okay to enjoy this incredibly…

While I do agree with the poster who believes that it’s slightly unfair that The Punisher gets so much flak, to the point where you can’t enjoy the escapist power fantasy without feeling guilty about it, and other violent media gets a pass, I do agree with the sentiment that John Wick mostly gets away with it because…

The biggest problem with open world games for me is that I’m more of a “casual” gamer these days. Not in the sense that I play casual games- I actually tend to go for the deeper, more immersive games- I just play them only a couple of times a week, and rarely have time to sit down and go for long playthroughs. Add…
