This joke is stolen and I can't remember who to credit it to, but they really missed a golden opportunity not titling the film "Kray Kray."

Agreed. Although for me, I never really spent time imagining the backstories of the characters. I saw the original movies when I was younger, but I was always more of an Indiana Jones kid when I was 8. Star Wars really wasn't a big part of my childhood, so it wasn't until I was an adult that I went back and watched…

And Lucas accomplished this by contradicting literally every bit of backstory hinted at in the original trilogy aside from the broad strokes like Anakin becoming Vader and having twins.

To be fair, though, "Brokeback Mountain" is a great movie and "Crash" is terrible.

The shot of the team melting into the horizon is amazing. Not only a brilliant visual of them "descending into hell," so to speak, but it even suggests the characters merging with the very darkness they are supposedly combatting. The film is gorgeously shot, and loaded with all kinds of layers.

Yes, so glad someone else got the "Chinatown" vibe. Thematically they are definitely on the same wavelength; they'd make for a fantastic (and horribly depressing) double-feature.

Reminds me a lot of "Chinatown."

Great post, although the final scene of the movie is the young boy playing soccer; I'm not sure that's what you were referring to when you say it was a "brutal depiction of the reality of organized crime."

Really? Because I cringed when they said the word "prophecy."

It's weird that neither episode focused on Clara, like, at all.

Basically this. They rebooted the character at the start of season 8— she suddenly has a teaching degree, and she's been traveling with the Doctor for an indeterminate amount of time. That's pretty much all you need to know. The "Impossible Girl" stuff feels so far removed from the Clara travelling with Capaldi, I…

You're conflating "2" and "3."

Agreed. Loved that she gets the final fight scene in the movie; taking on the main villains "muscle" hand-to-hand. Such a rarity, and what a treat (the fight was awesome!).

I was always bummed they never brought that character back. He effortlessly slid into that show's rhythm better than just about any guest star they ever had.

No problem!

Opinions!

I must have missed the hype.

That's what's great about these sorts of lists. You can check out movies you might not have otherwise heard of.

Actually it was originally called "All You Need is Kill," then got changed to "Edge of Tomorrow," then they started pushing "Live. Die. Repeat" (The best title of the three, honestly) on all of the post-theatrical advertising.

Agreed. Deakins is the star of that film, but for as stunningly shot as it is, none of its beauty adds up to anything of value because everything else in that movie is so thoroughly mediocre.
