This was very light on Tomorrow Never Dies, which I put as the best Brosnan outing and probably a top 5 of all Bond movies for me. It’s got a reasonably grounded plot, Michelle Yeoh kicks ass, it moves at a brisk pace and it’s got a good run time (I think maybe shortest or second shortest in whole series). It makes

Tomorrow Never Dies has one of my favorite movie openings with the criminal bazaar and Bond wrecking shop and hijacking the plane with the nuke on it.

If you don’t want to see Bond use the roof of his rocket sled to windsurf an arctic tidal wave caused by a glacier collapsing due to a satellite laser from space chasing him across the ice, do you even really want to see a Bond movie?

Maybe we should ask why gaming addiction is such a huge problem in China? I’m guessing the prevalence of gatcha games, the console ban (which clearly drew gamers to mobile), and the overall culture of pushing your kids to study non-stop so the little free time they have is spent sucked into a phone. This honestly

Yeah, she (and the other Red Room-trained folks) take a lot of hits but keep on ticking. “I doubt the god from space needs an ibuprofin after a fight.” Best line of the movie.

I didn’t really know who Florence Pugh was before watching this, but damn, she was hilarious and insanely charismatic. I get why people were so stoked when it was announced she’d be in the movie. She was amazing.

And, hell, we had Taskmaster imitating Bucky's Winter Soldier moves down to the knife flip. 

Yeah, Civil War is an odd example to use being as it’s clearly set after Ant-Man (and all of Phase 2) and, as well as setting up the status quo of Phase 3, specifically sets up Spider-Man: Homecoming, Black Panther and Ant-Man and the Wasp (as well as Infinity War/Endgame of course).

I fully picture Yelena yelling at Clint about how it should have been him instead of Natasha, and Clint just being like... yeah, no disagreement here.

As someone who doesn’t really follow the comics, I definitely think that the reveal worked better this way than it would have the original way. The Black Widow stinger is short, and quite a lot like the Nick Fury one except that even a lot of non comics people know who the Avengers are, which is sort of critical to

Nah, FFVIII is excellent and FFX is mediocre. So says the ancient scrolls and you can’t argue with that; they’re ancient scrolls.

I’ll just sit in my corner and quietly enjoy FFXIII

Somewhere….Zack Snyder just got an edge-lord boner thinking of a “grim” Starfox Cinematic Universe 9 hour long Director’s Cut.

The most correct sign is the “FF6 still goat” sign. It’ll be correct forever at this rate.

Man, screw Fox McCloud, Peppy O’Hare is where the action is.

I remember reading that Mr Donner, when shooting movies around the Christmas Holidays, would fire all his crew and rehire them immediately after New Year’s Day so that they wouldn’t have to work during the Holidays. What a man!

Really don’t understand why people are so weirded out by Loki and Sylvie. It’s just another form of masturbation.

Blues musicians, right?

Look, they take their stuntpeople’s safety as seriously as they take their warehouse workers’ rights.
