I think they're great, but the general public tends to shy away from them. I hope Tarzan does well so that we actually get Shane Black's Doc Savage movie.

The mystery deepens.
Thank you for the illuminating illustration of the tu quoque fallacy, AV Club.
So she's making a play for the fetishist demographic.
Kevin Tsujihara is God?
I wonder why execs keep on pumping out movies based on 1930s pulp heroes even though these movies keep on bombing. It has to be more than the fact they're in public domain and people vaguely remember the characters, right?
This guy's life story is pretty incredible, and he was great in Captain Phillips. Good to see that people have recognized his talent. I was excited to see him show up in Eye in the Sky.
Does this mean that Thom Yorke really does live in a cave on top of a snowy mountain?
Does putzing around on the internet count? I need more details here.
Eh, you can separate the art from the artist.
I think it's pretty obvious that the villain of these films will be that uneven block with two bricks above and two bricks below. Fuck that guy.
In his defense, cocaine's a hell of a drug.
Sorry, Paramount. If you had snagged Beyonce for the song, then the film would be an automatic hit, but with Rihanna, the box office numbers are only going to be middling.
I remember renting the 2003 Peter Pan and bringing it over a friend's house because I had heard good things. Anyway, we were watching the movie and drinking, and for whatever reason people hated it. The most common criticism was that it just wasn't as good as Hook.
Similarly, John Williams also managed to walk away from the Star Wars prequels unscathed.
Yeah, I was going to say Hook as well. It really does fall into all of the terrible sentimentality that Spielberg is accused of with few redeeming qualities. At least something like The Lost World has a handful of well designed set pieces. The action in Hook is fairly bland. And something like Terminal is an…
He was included to say to the audience, "You know, sometimes it's okay to think your son is a total douchebag."
I had a mixed reaction. There are some wonderful moments in the film, and Spielberg's action scenes are still second to none. But the movie also felt too jitttery for me. Spielberg does interesting work with the imaginary camera, but it also never sits still. At it's worst, it's like the film version of a five year…
As a kid, that poster absolutely sold me on the picture. I'm often confused as to how advertising works. For instance, I've read that revealing nearly the entire plot to a film in a trailer makes people want to see the movie more, but it always makes me less excited. I prefer a little glimpse. I guess what I'm trying…
Why does every article about Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull claim that the film was trying to pass the whip and the fedora to Shia LeBeouf? If you've watched the film, then it's clear that's not the case. In fact, the filmmakers themselves stated clearly that they were never planning to pass the…
