This is so infuriating to me, because this is such a killer concept and the visual effects look super appealing. Made with, oh, basically ANY OTHER CAST, it would probably do a wonderful job of making me feel 8 years old again.

Would it be pedantic to point out that this scene from Back to the Future II does not take place in 2015, but "1985A"?

I love me some great orchestral scores, but I think the world lost something when it decided to lock synth scores away in the 80s, to be used only in films self-consciously made as a tribute to 80s cinema. I think John Carpenter and Tangerine Dream produced some absolutely essential scores in that style.

I don't even think they WERE underrated, so much as they are underrated now. The original trilogy, plus Crash Team Racing (which was a superior product to Mario Kart 64) were huge hits with audiences and critics alike at the time. I just think people's perception of the whole franchise was unfairly tainted by the…

Anyone else getting strong Earthworm Jim vibes here?

If you can get through it, it's worth it! The first 15 minutes of Part 2 are CONSISTENTLY the roughest patch in the marathon viewing, because you transition directly from the exhilaration of finishing the perfect first film into the sort of awkward, rocky beginning to the second film. But once you make the adjustment…

As stand-alone movies, Part II is relatively mediocre, and Part III is really good, but not a masterpiece or anything.

I love John Carpenter—he is possibly my favorite filmmaker?—but realistically, to imply that he is a superior filmmaker to John Cassavettes, Frank Capra, or David Cronenberg is nonsense.

Because we narrowly voted for Obama in two elections? You're being pedantic.

Well I guess I don't know your geographic situation, but I have heard it on multiple occasions in Florida, from people who think the casting makes Act of Valor artistically and morally superior to other films.

"Marines should be played by real marines!" is something that you will occasionally hear certain red state residents expressing unironically.

My girlfriend—who does not watch football or know who Michael Strahan was—gasped audibly when he came on the screen, and was covering her mouth with her sweater while staring bug-eyed at the screen during his whole dance. He was oozing sex.

I know it's not an omission, because this list is dealing with athletes cameo-ing as themselves, but I just saw Magic Mike XXL and hot DAMN Michael Strahan was scene-stealingly good.

Paper Jam Wahlberg.

Oh, good call! That is probably it—it's both plausible and terrible that 2010!Channing Tatum would make 10x 2010!Amanda Seyfried.

I love both of them, but this looks bland and generic as hell.

Is the author speculating that Amanda Seyfried got 10% of what Eddie Redmayne got? Because if that's true, that would be hot garbage. Eddie Redmayne should obviously be able to command a much larger salary now, but there is absolutely no world in which 2012!Redmayne should have made 10x what 2012!Seyfried made, in…

Guillermo Del Toro wants to make a lot of things, and yet

Is there any single possible design in the universe that they could have gone with that wouldn't have made Ghostbusters fanboys angry??

Yes! But also Democrats who think they are superior to Republicans because they voted for the "better" flavor of imperialist corporate stooges, and independent voters who think they're superior to people who vote for one of the two major parties, and use phrases like "imperialist corporate stooges."
