I have to say I greatly prefer the original. The remake more or less turns Elliot into a giant dog. In what would become a trend with Disney live-action remakes, all the personality that comes from an animated character is lost in the new translation.

I mainly know her as the voice of Avatar’s Katara, and wish that got a little more discussion. And I’m still salty they didn’t ask her back for Independence Day 2 (though she may have dodged a bullet on that one).

I thought she recanted her allegations? It’s still moving forward? I’m so confused

Huh. Disney’s really not stopping, are they? Just diving right up into their Dark Ages next. Live action Robin Hood will surely hit theaters, but the others? Live action The Fox and the Hound? Oliver and Company? They need to go straight to Disney+

I think this is fair. Horrible Bosses, Neighbors... Some comedies with revenge central to the plot are worthy for consideration.

You can drop the “franchise capper” caveat. Each LOTR movie was 3 hours, so Return of the King wasn’t unique in this regard. Even for Marvel, no Avengers entry had been shorter than 2hrs+20 minutes.

It’s John Wick. What plot? That’s what makes Chapter 4 so egregious, lol. 

Exactly. Barry Sonnenfeld brings this up, and I think he’s just telling it like it is:

I really enjoyed The Batman, but I haven’t been able to rewatch it once because I just haven’t found the time. Some with a lot of the recent films this article mentions. They’re great, but damn do they take some schedule-clearing. Just to watch casually on a movie night.

Treating Shazam exactly the way Black Adam would

It’s an interesting question simply for how long it took Black Adam to get made. (Plans for it pre-date Shazam, I believe.) I can see a situation where Superman was always the White Whale, but I can also see a situation were it became a change-up after DC started getting desperate.

I was a little taken aback when that happened. We’re still doing this??

He’s robotic in both John Wick and The Matrix, so ranking them as the two best is intellectually dishonest. But they are his two most popular franchises, so they automatically get those spots. 

I’d move Something’s Gotta Give a lot higher, I’d include getting harassed by Ana de Armas in Knock Knock, because that’s a performance to see, and I wouldn’t divvy up ranking the same character multiple times. But since you did, then I’d slide Bill and Ted Face the Music to one of his worst. He just didn’t have the…

Nothing good happens when you release a superhero movie with an exclamation point in the title where a colon should rightly be.

Canada is supposed to be The Good Place

It’s been something to see Resident Evil evolve from just a popular horror franchise to a legit Game of the Year franchise.

But wouldn’t they find the bullet in the car, or another exit hole if it went through?
