Go on Twitter or whatever the fuck it’s called now and defend this movie. You will not make friends at all.

I’ve read it twice now and even followed some of the links, and I’m still not sure how anyone involved isn’t an utter waste of space. I mean, at least the one girl is making money off less intelligent folks? P.T Barnum has yet to be proven wrong.

What it proved to me is that most any movie could be four hours long if half of it is in slow-motion.  At least somehow the effects were finished for the years later, online version...

I mean, it was a turd that might have been slightly better with less editing, somehow. Those music cues were fucking terrible, so if he had any hand in that then there is zero chance more of his input would have made this better. As bad as it was, it just got...boring in the last half. Also, he must have been involved…

Honestly it does, as he’s not the initial target.  The story is not bad at all, honestly, you know...with the usual caveat of both ‘for a comic book’ and ‘for a video game’.  But yeah, as Mid Boss says, don’t overthink it.

You know what a turtle is?  It’s like that.

Ayer is all “CALM IT DOWN--THE BOTH OF YOU!!!”

I’m sure I’m projecting a bit, as I’m a huge fan of his and have seen him many times live, and I fucking hate it with a passion.  I’m sure he likes the money it brought in being one of his bigger hits, so I can’t blame him for not being harder on it.  It’s a terrible song, though, no matter who sings it. 

You joke, but really it’s accurate--you shouldn’t need to remember anything for a prequel.

Billy Joel hates that song and calls it the worst he’s ever written (arguable, of course)

I think one of the biggest issues with any Netflix show is the model they created does not really work that well for programs designed to go on for a while.  Binging hurts TV, even  though everyone seems to love it.  But you watch a show you love in a week....and then even if season two comes on a year later it feels…

lol I’m in my 50's and I’m embarrassed for you.  I have kids, so that’s a cheat code for this stuff, but some of these people are top earners in the entertainment industry.  Hell, I even recognized the guy the cameo’d in Five Nights at Freddies.  

Yeah that’s nuts to me as well.  He’s not as popular, and never has been.  You could make the best Ant-Man movie ever and it would still be Ant-Man.

Film studios have always used ‘creative accounting’ --maybe more so than any other industry that comes to mind.  This just seems like more of the same shenanigans.

God how I wish games would stop with the ‘boss fight—ROUND 2...and then--ROUND 3!!1!11!!’ tactic. Either make the one round longer and more interesting, or let it end. Even Spider-Man does this and it’s maddening.

Glad it made sense to you, though honestly it sounds like you work for them (I’m sort of kidding, but your take—while technically correct— is hardly the prevalent one).  Even if the reasoning is sound, it was a dumb decision because it discounted brand recognition.  The HBO model was going to have to change no matter…

Keeping the government open is a monthly challenge anymore, it seems.

the film industry has always been known for its shady book-keeping—-maybe more than any other industry, and no one seems to give a shit except the handful of people that get screwed in those deals. Why is this all that different?
