  1. Zayn's really convincing Foley crumples whenever he's selling head damage are something else. I've been worked into thinking he's actually KO'd a few times. I had to watch Bayley/Askua about an hour after I watched Nak/Zayn, and I'm glad I had some distance between the two. If they didn't want Samson/Crews on the show, they should have at least put some sort of in ring angle or segment in there to seperate those matches some more.
  2. I know it won't happen for a variety of reasons, but I desperately want Nak/Reigns.
  3. Jesus, Taker got got. Shane's punches might look like shit, but at least they also actually injure people. Also, why is Tatanka the same height as Waltman?!
  4. http://m.imgur.com/gallery/gHZLO http://m.imgur.com/gallery/7Px7XsJ Beyond plot or specific characterization issues, it's a betrayal of what these characters mean to people and what they can be. Even the worst previous interpretations of them at least acknowledged their core ideals. They matter in a way that the people that made this movie don't understand. I can accept that it's a movie aimed at adolescents and I'm approaching 30. I just feel bad for them.
  5. They won't admit it, but nobody's special in their opinion anymore. That nobody's bigger than the brand attitude has left them with nobody to put on a pedestal except for the guys that existed before they put that policy in place. No active guy could handle retiring Taker because they're creatively trapped in a self-fulfilling prophecy.
  6. The Suicide Squad trailers to me weren't special because of the humor. They showed that Ayer seemed to approach the material with a sense of wonder that was plainly missing from even the early footage of BVS.
  7. They know where their bread is buttered. There's going to be hardly any scenes without Harley period.
  8. If you really want a treat watch Black Cobra, the Italian "remake" starring Fred "The Hammer" Williamson. It's hysterical.
  9. Not really. They recap some of MoS in the beginning, and a lot of the stuff that might seem incomprehensible isn't from MoS; it's just groundwork for Justice League.
  10. It's a bad movie. Batman could have safely neutralized every henchman in the movie and put a pillow under them before they hit the floor and it would still be a bad movie.
  11. I love that this was the go-home show for Wrestlemania and the thread only made it to 8 pages by turning it into All Purpose Horror.
  12. Has anyone addressed that one of the biggest plot points in the movie is that Superman is framed for murdering a bunch of terrorists by Lex's version of Blackwater, but that no one seems concerned that they were shot with automatic weapons and not laserd to death or ripped in half or killed in any way that would make sense for Superman to kill them?
  13. The origin was in there because they wanted to lay the Martha groundwork from jump street. I don't know why Thomas had to instigate his and his wife's murder, but whatever. The only good reason to really do it is if Jeffrey Dean Morgan is going to be Flashpoint Batman in the solo Flash movie.
  14. There's a hamper joke in there. Let me workshop it and get back to you.
  15. Leave Too Sexy Brian and Too Hot Scott out of that shit.
  16. I just understood that this Lex Luthor pissed into a jar and left it on Holly Hunter's desk. I thought it really was just tea. No one has talked about this?!
  17. I could live with the questionable henchman body count, but the actual BvS fight is grotesque.
  18. I'm really looking forward to someone taking the director's cut bluray and recutting it. There's not a lot you can do about the plot, but dropping some stuff, color corrections, and different music would do wonders for some of the issues. I think the pacing can at least be fixed.
  19. They should just always have June on the minisode the following week when she can't be there, like the Zardoz recap she did.
  20. During the first 45 minutes I thought everyone was overreacting because it seemed fine. But once the set pieces started it turns into a strange, ugly assault on the senses. The way the actual fight is presented, especially without the TDKR context, is just awful. Based on the framework, I still think a solo Batfleck movie could be quite good, but Snyder has a very cynical sensibility about what Batman fans want to see, so he'd need to be hands off. The Wonder Woman stuff, especially her music cue, was rad. I wouldn't have found the movie as frustrating if there weren't a few individual thoughtful and lyrical moments in the beginning and very end that indicated there was a better movie in there.
  21. I felt like Zodiac was heavily influenced by Memories of Murder. But yes, needed more missile drop kicks.
  22. Kang-ho Song has been in two great collaborative relationships: Chan-woo Park and Joon Ho Bong.
  23. He seemed to be a fit man for his age. I'd heard several times that he'd gotten way into amateur boxing. The number of television shows from the last 25 years that owe him a debt creatively is incalculable.
  24. Yeah,the original concept was Hitler trying to redeem himself by stopping Bin Laden. It was called Nein! Eleven.
