Nah.

He wasn't even a nerd. He was just a brooding outcast who even stood up for an actual nerd when he was being bullied. Which…isn't supposed to be how Peter is before developing confidence with his powers.

Eh. I'm of the mind that Raimi's first two SM films are the apotheosis of the superhero genre as a whole (while the Webb movies were damn near the nadir—although i do want to see a Garfield/Stone romcom, now), but I'm digging Holland. The "Whoa! You got a metal arm? That's awesome dude," and his scenes in general were…

It's a callback or easter egg or allusion (or whatever) to his original suit in the comics.

The Wolverine was just as good as Logan until the final act.

I enjoyed the first trailer more, which showed more of the Peter Parker stuff. Marvel movies always go overboard with the CGI and they don't seem to understand the power of "smaller" when it comes to storytelling (Spider-Man 2 is still the best superhero movie for me, precisely because it was ultimately just about…

Don't understand how The Wolverine is so overlooked. Yeah, the robot samurai fight was sort of a major tonal shift, but the rest of the movie was about the same quality as Logan.

It does explain. You can't ignore context. That's part of Chappelle's whole point.

Yessssss!

I used to think that way, but I no longer think that's always true. A lot of prescriptivists are trying to help prevent language from being manipulated into something it's not. A prescriptivist, for example, might say a lot of the success around something like Trump's campaign was in a descriptive use of language. And…

After the slaughter scene in Rogue One, this is pretty much my idea for a Star Wars movie about Darth Vader traversing the galaxy and murdering motherfuckers. Just scene after scene of Vader murdering motherfuckers intercut with brief cutscenes of the Emperor telling him to go to some planet to murder motherfuckers.

Which is sad because I think both John Carter and the Lone Ranger were both pretty entertaining movies. Tomorrowland can eat a bag of testicles, tho.

It was surprisingly and sneakily subversive for a Disney film, while also being genuinely touching in that sentimental Disney sort of way. Great flick.

Eh. Rush Hour's pretty legit. It's got Chris Tucker and it's directed by Brett Ratner, so the internet is going to hate it. But Tucker and Chan have good chemistry, and Ratner is basically the only American director I've seen who has any clue how to shoot Jackie Chan action scenes (A lot of people think Dey did a…

I experienced that same issue. When I read the article about what really went down, I was like "Only Michael Fucking Bay can read this shit and think it'd make for slapstick comedy."

Yeah, but RocknRolla was pretty good.

Nope, nope, nope.

That's bullshit, though. You can't do what he did on Crossfire and then when people call on you to do more of that, mug into the camera and say, "Buh, buh…I'sa juss a comedian." You can't tell the media to get back to work when you're "retired." A lot of people obviously look to him to be some kind of voice in the…

It's a combination of being small-scale for a Scorsese film and also one of Scorsese's more "on the nose" movies. The first time you watch it, you're sort of like, "that's it?" because it's Scorsese and you expect something profound and conflicted and vague.

It's not about "truth" or "facts." It's about believing what I want to believe because I want to believe it. People just don't want to be inconvenienced, basically.
