They missed a trick by not calling it "christianime."

Indiana Jones certainly couldn't be accused of subtlety.

WHO THE FUCK IS LIKING THESE COMMENTS?

Heisenborg.

To save his wife from terrorists?

Say what you will, but this comment section has more compelling discussions than I've seen on this site in a while. Pun threads get old.

I think criticizing Looper is legitimate, because the setup fails to support the extremely far-fetched premise, which needs all the help it can get. And most of the issues have nothing to do with the intricacies of time-travel causality either. For instance: in the year 2067, A white guy in Shanghai can make a…

@avclub-011d0b4fe6835bb3d37ef4e0ea713de6:disqus It's that there's shit blown up all around Walt's house, and a pair of glasses that look like they could be Walt's, and police putting stuff in evidence bags, so the natural inference would be that something happened at Walt's house that led to his or his family's…

@avclub-4890b244b694eb077186da46702d0111:disqus No idea if you're still reading this thread, but in Inception the threat of Limbo isn't that it's inescapable, it's that you can easily forget you're in it. Mal and Sato weren't idiots for not getting themselves out immediately, they just lost their perspective.

@avclub-89e8c84e17ca0dc6725e8187acc2ddc6:disqus  I though the toys just became whatever they represented? Thus, the toys that were designed to represent historically accurate (if generic) figures end up gaining the memories and personalities of actual historical figures, since that's what they would have if they were…

@avclub-1f93a5d50953fac07d7e6f54827ce9bc:disqus For the first half or so it seemed satirical, but by the end it had lost any edge of insight or criticism, and was just violent for its own sake. That's what really sticks in my craw, that what seems like genre deconstruction ends up being a piddling, bad-faith effort to…

Really? I feel like that scene could have gone a lot, lot worse.

She's using a straw man argument. The problem with a shallow, ugly, violence-glorifying superhero movie isn't that it will force people to do copycat crimes, it's that it's tasteless, empathy-numbing tripe.

That… that wasn't a joke. There's seriously a scene like that in the comic.

Absolutely wonderful visuals and flawless casting. Some of the most cringe-worthy scripts I've ever suffered through, and tonally way off from the source material.

Fools! That was the government's plan all along! Classic conspiracy double-bluff.

Sure, sure. I wasn't criticizing your choice, just wondering aloud.

I don't know how any of the kids movies where animals have souls get away with it.

@Bitenuker:disqus Alan's great, but a bit different from Snape in the book. Imelda is Umbridge.

You mean Eastwick? Or does Clint have some really scary ex-wives?
