Iron Man 3 was riding the Avengers success, hence earned the most. Captain America: Winter Soldier is in second place for being damned good, period.
Even the two Thor movies have differing levels of space fantasy elements. The first was more old-school raygun gothic, while The Dark World was thinly-veiled space opera.
This is why I love Marvel Studios. They recognize that their sequels can't just be rehashes of the first, they know they have a ton of stories in their comics back catalog, and the best part of all, know that different films need different styles, even if it's a film for the same damned hero.
Even the fights glimpsed through the window aren't wide enough. Seriously, here's a highlight reel of some toku fight scenes:
Personally, I'm not bothered by reviews for 16:10 monitors, for there was a time when they were the default aspect ratio for gaming displays. However, that was the mid-oughties, and it's 2014 now. Reviewers should change with the times, especially when majority of the gaming userbase are on consumer-grade displays,…
Ok that's just weird, because I distinctly remember the Geforce 335.23 drivers' highlights specifically noting that it updated its Watch Dogs SLI profile.
Y'know, I'd believe the suspense part if it weren't for several scenes clearly depicting the action we missed, but from a news camera, being seen by someone who doesn't give a crap about the monster fights. They did it twice: when Kickass' kid was watching the news, and when those poor gamblers in that casino. Both…
No, you think about it: It's got the same problems. Aside from the annoying camerawork and shitty CGI, what was Bayformers' biggest sin? It was making the Autobots walking plot devices, while the story revolved around Shia Lebeef's attempts at getting into Megan Fox's pants. All the time, the robots would blink in and…
I'm an angry baby? [A] was the one who accused me of not liking slow pacing and being someone who can't appreciate storytelling. He's an idiot, because he doesn't know me. I enjoy slow pacing. I watched all of Evangelion and its many single-frame, minutes-long sequences. I adore Wong Kar Wai. I can do slow-paced.…
No, I wasn't hanging out here back in 2008. Most of the reactions to the Iron Man casting I got from my social circles at the time (My Facebook friends, a Hellblazer forum, Escapist magazine, etc) was "ok, this might turn out really good."
Really? Which people are you talking about? Because I distinctly remember the reaction to TDK was "Trust in Nolan", while RDJ's casting was met with "wait, it makes perfect sense!"
My sister recently walked out of the new Godzilla film. She was bored to death, and this is someone loves watching molasses-paced arthouse films. I on the other hand, have an extremely high tolerance for even the shittiest of genre films, and managed to finish the film twice.
For me, the tight shots during the fights. Anyone who watches tokusatsu shows regularly knows that wide shots are normally employed for martial arts action sequences, with close ups used only for effect.
To be fair to Marky Mark, he sounded as enthusiastic as he's ever sounded about anything when he said, "I think we just found a Transformer!"
Hi Steven, I'm confused with your benchmark results. Specifically, you list at least one GTX 690 under your tested specs, but none of your results have it. Is SLI just not supported right now (thereby leaving the 690 with only a 680-level performance)? Or is this just a clerical error?
Additionally, you only tested for…
What are you talking about? TDK had pretty solid hype because Nolan, and I'm pretty sure the general opinion on Iron Man was overwhelmingly positive thanks to its spot-on casting choices and well-cut trailer.
I dunno, the guy did pretty well during his livestream of Tabletop day, and that event had little to no structure. I think what you see as a cringe-inducing lack of self-awareness, may actually be just Wil fully embracing his dorkhood, warts and all. For me, it's a big part of his appeal, and why I think he's the…
Don't worry. As his Geek and Sundry non-Tabletop appearances have shown, he has the charisma and solid geek cred to work a show like this.
That's one of the problems of trying to connect every movie to a single universe, I suppose. It kills individuality and every movie looks like it was directed by the same guy.
