I'm telling y'all, Guardians is going to be fucking awesome.

Matt Brown vs Nick Diaz sounds awesome to me.

Fight Club was the first thing that came to mind. The Fight Club novel is good, probably Chucky P's best work, but goddamn does David Fincher make a work of art out of it. I watched it again last week and it is still really good. High Fidelity is another that I love more than the book.

WTF? Why? Why the fuck would you need to troll out Antacular on this?

What a fucking rube.

A Paul Michael Levesque Film... Written by M. Night Shyamalan

I don't know...I just don't see this series getting into aliens and stuff like that.

Dammit anyway. I swear, I can't watch a movie or a trailer with a dad saying something to his kid without getting all weepy. I could just never imagine leaving my daughter like that.

Wow.

Miami/Indiana reminds me of those Bulls/Knicks series from the 90s. I'm guessing the Heat wins, but who knows. I couldn't give a shit either way.

The airplane scene being one of them. I had no idea what the fuck was even being said or how that would all be relevant later. I just kinda pieced things together when Bane took over the stadium. Oddly enough, it's easier to make out what's being said on the home video release when I watch it using my soundbar. If I just use TV speakers, it's all muffled.

That's pretty good casting. Until she mentioned it on a podcast, I had no idea that she was a singer and sang a bunch of songs for Sons of Anarchy.

That poster is sooooooo good. I want it.

I hope it's the eliminator where you have to deliver the ball to the goal in the center of the pit, that way Bananas can just knock the ball out of Jordan's hand and stump with ease. Fuck Jordan.

Christ...I still would like to know why they thought the audio mix for TDKR was good enough for a final product.

Double J, is that you?

Here is my list. 1. The Silverdome in Michigan 2. The ECW Arena in Philly 3. The Silverdome in New Orleans 4. The Chase in St. Louis 5. The Omni in Atlanta 6. The Hammerstein Ballroom in New York, also that little place called MSG If you're going to attend a wrestling show, the All-State Arena in Chicago/Rosemont is a must. If we're speaking historically, there's also the UIC Pavilion (Chi-Town Rumble).

Yeah, I was a tad disappointed. I'm not sure if it was a rights thing or what, but it should have been in there in some form. I was even sure it would play during the credits and it didn't, unless it played during the portion of the credits I wasn't there for. That said, the score is still pretty good. And maybe Fowler can answer this, but did you think the audio production was a little on the quiet side? There were so many times where I expected to have my ears blown out or feel some kind of rumble in my chest from the bass kicking in and it never happened in the theater I was at.

I actually applaud them for having the restraint to not do that. There are some...strange call outs or Easter eggs in the movie too. I swear there's a poster of Pac Rim Kaiju (and fuck all y'all that don't like Pac Rim, that movie is fun as hell). And Ford has a Mothra name tag on his little moth/butterfly house.

I also wish they had the original Godzilla theme in there somewhere. I kept waiting for it and there were a couple points where I would have gone fucking nuts had they pumped that in there, but it never happened.

The more I think about it, the more problems I have with it. The first 30 minutes are really boring. And it also pains me to say that Ken Watanabe's character is straight up crazy. It's surprising to see so many people just trust him. However, Ken Watanabe is awesome, so who gives a shit. The other stinging point is that the amount of things Ford (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) can do is ridiculous. Even MacGyver thought that was bullshit. That said, the movie is still really good, it's just much slower paced than I expected and it's plainly obvious that had to be due to budgetary concerns.

I think I nominated Friday for the movie club years ago. I could be wrong.

BTW, we didn't stay for the whole credits. Did anything happen at the end of them?

I liked it a lot, but about an hour in and we would only get teases for hot monster on monster action. It made me think that for budgetary reasons they kept doing the smoke and mirrors routine until the last 30 minutes of the movie. Holy shit though, when those last 30 minutes arrive it is fucking ON. The build to the atomic breath was awesome as well. Anyway, like I said, pretty good, but there were some issues, ones like I described and all of the coincidences involving the main characters.

I'd rather that Sandow join the Wyatt family as their long lost more educated cousin.
