You're exactly right. The original post of this thread seemed to imply that it was somehow unreasonable that there exists a group of people that want Marvel movies to stop. I said that I am part of the group that is sick of them and gave reasons why I feel this way and why I don't think it's a great trend in Hollywood.

Summer 2016:

Can I be added to the *People group?

Just say exactly that. I don't mince words with people. They know what they're getting into if they ask me for a movie recommendation.

Does it though? A Clockwork Orange is generally considered as a staple novel in English literature, at least in the tier of 'classics you read in high school'.

Ironically, it's because they liked Billy Madison when they were 8 years old and see it for the same reasons that people see Jurassic World or Terminator Genisys. i'm telling you right now, if Sandler made Billy Madison 2 or Happy Gilmore 2, they'd generate hundreds of millions in gross.

I'm shocked it's only 88 million. Even Sandler's laziest films like Jack & Jill and Grown Ups 2 cost like 100 million. Given that this actually has decent special effects and production values, its amazing he was able to keep the budget under 400 million.

It would have worked better as a mid-season break kind of thing. Coming back after a year to a show already has a disorienting feel to it, so it makes it more easy to forgive sudden big changes. But having that kind of shift just the week after the last ep is a little drastic.

I don't remember her being a spectator, I think it was only the father and his two sons. I could be wrong, though.

Is anyone else surprised that Armitage doesn't get main cast billing and instead listed as a guest star? He's the major villain of the entire backhalf of the season.

Hannibal, at least this version of him, isn't just going to poison Chilton and be done with he. He has more class than that. When he kills Chilton, he wants to savor it.

The film cost 150 million dollars to make. You only get 50% of every dollar your film makes domestically. So far in America, this movie made ~82 million, so Paramount is taking home ~41 million. Internationally, things fare much worse. Being generous, you only take home ~25% of every dollar on the gross, sometimes

It baffles me that studios construct these five year plans and invest how many hundreds of millions of dollars and hundreds of thousands of man hours into these movies yet do not put even a small effort into assuring their quality. Alan Taylor is actually a decent choice for director as it has been shown repeatedly

Has Mr. Pizza ever considered hiring a team of writers? You know, like every other television show on the planet? Because it took him something like seven years to write the first season, so it's understandable that season 2 is a little lackluster in comparison when he was rushed to craft it in 12 months. A few extra

Those three episodes did advance the plot. They put everyone in a place where we had 3 different 'teams' gunning for Hannibal simultaneously (Jack, Will and Chiyoh, and Alana and Mason) each one trying to beat the other to the punch.

I'm someone who enjoys the theory of wrestling and the history of it. I find its mix of secret club, improv theater, physicality, and overblown writing to be interesting to learn about. I listen to podcasts about it and enjoy hearing about it, but I'm never very interested in actually watching it. I don't know if

All this arguing about Atticus's characterization in this novel seems to be missing the point that this not really a straightforward sequel and is only a proto-quasi-sequel-quasi-first draft of to Kill a Mockingbird. I'm sure Lee would have worked it out and developed some things differently if she ever seriously

I really appreciate the sentiment that Todd opened this article up with; Tony lives in the restaurant, or he dies in the restaurant. Ultimately, it doesn't matter. Throughout the show's run, David Chase has time and time again shown us that the mafia/mob storylines aren't the meat and potatoes of what he's trying to

You are exactly right. This is something of a first draft of to Kill a Mockingbird that was rejected. She wrote this before, not after, that book.
