Yeah, The Usual Suspects was pretty good. And Way of the Gun was cool. Meh.
I'm all about Jack Reacher, man. Fantastic movie. Some of the best direction I've seen in a long, long time. Unfortunately, Rogue Nation was a weak follow-up.
Well, I haven't seen Jack Reacher and I don't imagine that I ever will.

LV, we're only a little more than a year away from this. Rate your dick's hardness on a scale of "verb looking at a girl with 5% body fat" to "lenny watching any woman who has ever been on Jeopardy."

What do we know about Rogue One at this point? I'll definitely be looking forward to it once TFA settles down in the coming month.

Somewhere between those and Peeps watching a movie that's faithful to the comics.

i am probably one of the few who is ok with deviation from source material when it comes to movies.

you have to condense something or reimage it for it to work in a movie.

just like superman doesnt kill people, i was ok with him killing zod in MoS. why? because he wasnt superman just then. he was learning to be but isnt there yet.

the green lantern uniform. could they have gone with just green, black and white? could have but i doubt it would looked good.

same with xmen. really, cyclops wearing a unitard from head to toe with only is jaw/mouth/nose exposed? wolvering in bright yellow spandex? nighcrawler in a red V? so they changed it to leather (which was acutally done in the comics via morrison)

you dont have to stick faithfully to the comics but it does feel better as a fan if there is a connection there

The best thing about The Force Awakens is that it means this is now only a year away.

I thought the best thing about TFA was seeing the BvS trailer on the big screen. :?
