One of those days I regret posting at all

How the hell did Into the Wild make that list???

CAUSE ITS AN INCREDIBLE FUCKING MOVIE YOU MEATSACK

I'm not even commenting on the movie's quality. That list is of the most popular titles on IMDb. That means ITW is super popular on that website, which seems very surprising to me. I didn't think the movie was that big of a deal to the general population?

its probably under the radar enough to keep the haters away.

I guess I'm wondering what IMDb means by "most popular?" I would assume they mean the pages with the most hits, no?

It's probably the highest rated movies with a minimum number of votes. IMDB users can rate movies from 1-10 stars.

I don't think so; the rankings don't line up with the IMDb top 250.

I think it does. Note that it is one movie per year, not just the top 25 movies overall. It's kind of a dumb list.

Oh is it? I didn't realize that.

Django Unchained is super boring.

I've been saying the same thing for a long time.

Steven Spielberg has hinted that an all new Indiana Jones may be among the sequels currently in his production pipeline.

Do we need an all inclusive Marvel thread?

Anyway, I find this to be good news:

Mark Ruffalo will bring the Hulk to Thor: Ragnarok


What’s the end of existence without a little smashing?


Mark Ruffalo will return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe as the Hulk, this time alongside Chris Hemsworth’s thunder god in Thor: Ragnarok, several sources have confirmed for Entertainment Weekly.

The movie, which will be directed by What We Do in the Shadows filmmaker Taika Waititi, is set to hit theaters on Nov. 3, 2017. The exact plot hasn’t been revealed, but Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige has said it will be a major gamechanger for the character.

“[Ragnarok] is a very important word, which means essentially ‘the end of all things,’” Feige said last October. “It’s a very important movie for us in our Phase 3 timeline, changing everything that comes after it.” He also confirmed at the time that Tom Hiddleston would be returning as the villain Loki.

Word of Ruffalo joining the Thor film was first reported three days ago by Paul Shirey of the movie news site Joblo.com, who picked up on the news after New York Comic Con.

The movie will pick up immediately after the events of Avengers: Age of Ultron, which featured Thor having an apocalyptic cave-vision.

In that movie

Spoiler: show

we last saw the Hulk curled into a ball aboard the Avengers’ Quinjet, flying off into who-knows-where after unleashing some bad havoc in Africa and some good havoc trying to defeat the robotic army of that movie’s artificial-intelligence villain.

Ruffalo has been keen to play Bruce Banner and the Hulk whenever possible. He was coaxed into a post-credits cameo on Iron Man 3 by Robert Downey Jr. when they were backstage at the Oscars in 2013.

But there’s still no sign of another stand-alone movie for the big green guy, after so-so reception of two previous tries with Ang Lee’s Hulk in 2003 with Eric Bana, and director Louis Leterrier’s The Incredible Hulk in 2008, starring Edward Norton.

Ever since Ruffalo brought a new charm to Banner in 2012’s The Avengers, fans have been agitating for him to get a solo film. But Ruffalo himself sees obstacles there.

“It’s a particularly hard character to make a movie about, because he doesn’t want to be there, generally,” he told EW in a previous interview. “He doesn’t want to do the very thing that you want him to do. So it gets a little frustrating as an audience, and there’s only so much of that.”

Ruffalo also indicated in other interviews that a solo Hulk movie has been stymied due to rights issues with Universal Pictures, which made the previous two.

For now, the Ragnarok news should keep Hulk fans happy. (You wouldn’t like them when they’re … not.)

Bruce Willis has signed on for a sixth instalment of the franchise.

Deadline reported that the film, a prequel to the first five Die Hard films, has a working title of Die Hard: Year One.

[BurtReynolds]

that can't be a real thing. It just can't be.

"It's a really cool idea, because it's an origin story." lol nope. That's the opposite of a cool idea.

[LoathedVermin72]

The prequel concept is stupid, but I would love to see Jai Courtney take over this series. If the concept and director were right, of course - which they aren't.

[BurtReynolds]

no one cares about Jai Courtney. Just let it die. for the love of god just let it die.

[LoathedVermin72]

I care, Burt. I care.

[bada]

Just let it die. for the love of god just let it die.

WHAT?!

[McParadigm]

"New Jem and the Holograms movie" has to be code for "Western culture is officially out of things to offer."

Shut it down, folks.

[E.H. Ruddock]

Guys, if you are going to see this without kids, you are basically a half step away from being a brony, right?

[McParadigm]

There aren't even any adult things like laser swords or smart dinosaurs in it i bet
