“Just get in the gahh-::burp::-ahhdamn Dalek, Morty!”
Dude, how often do you feel like the central characters of any TV show or film are actually in genuine mortal peril? Because 99.9% of the time, the answer should be “never.” Even the vaunted George R. R. Martin, supposedly hailed for his willingness to kill main characters, won’t touch most of the remaining cast of…
Don’t tease us. I’d watch the hell out of that. It would be like a gender-swapped Rick and Morty.
Age of Ultron gave us a very rare thing in Black Widow- a female character who can’t have kids and doesn’t give a shit about it. She defines herself as a monster because of how easy she kills and do othr unsavory thing. She only mentions being sterile because Banner offer this has an excuse to not get romantically…
I actually really liked that it had a smaller story, no pun intended. The big, over-the-top crap gets boring (e.g. endings of Man of Steel or Furious 7) and not every story needs to have the fate of the world hanging in the balance. Ant-Man was a pleasant change of pace from the typical Big Dumb Loud summer movie.
Exactly my intent haha
I enjoyed it more than the first Captain America and either of the Thors. The big problem for me was that it stayed too close to the Marvel formula. I think it would have been better received if it had come out during stage I.
I said this: If Avengers and Guardians were 5s, and Ultron was a 3. (which I am in the process of reevaluating) ANT-MAN was a solid 4.
That is the most excellent made-up username.
One counterexample, which is kind of outweighed by the fact that (1) it is based on a best-selling book; and (2) musicals have endless previews and workshops, and that people pretty much know whether it’s going to be garbage or not before it opens. See: Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark.
All this shit every year and we can’t get a Dredd sequel
“Ugh, it’s too tall for a Doctor Who monster. It looks like someone threw old bed sheets on a coat rack. It’s too dark. Where’s the rubber? There’s no joy in this monster. I’ll never watch the show again, but will be back next week to complain about it.”
as well as the long-in-development Beetlejuice and Gremlins sequels
I actually really enjoyed “Hanzel and Gretel: Witch Hunters” for precisely this reason. It’s not a great film, but it’s an over the top action film with copious amounts of gore, nudity and swearing. When was the last time you saw a fun, dumb action film that was unashamedly aimed at adults?
Beatrix Potter speaks the truth—about children’s books, fungus spores, breeding Herdwick sheep, and science fiction shows. Who knew she was so versatile?
Syfy has renewed both Dark Matter and Killjoys for second seasons, thirteen episodes for the former and ten for the latter. When the shows return in 2016, they’ll join new shows The Magicians and The Expanse and returning show 12 Monkeys.
I accidentally learned something today!
I love Michael C. Hall, and a couple of seasons of this show are among my favorite TV ever but...
