The acting wasn't bad, really... Just, god damn the squeezed in every cliche they could find.
Yeah, the acting was solid but it's a very forgettable movie. I watched it two months ago, and I forgot like 80% of it already. I just know that Sean Penn chewed up a lot of scenery as Mickey Doyle. Also, Robert Patrick was good.

Watched Gangster Squad tonight. Holy pile of mob movie cliches, Batman!
Sullivan Stapleton was good in his bit role.
Yeah, that's all I got.

I said this in the Box Office thread, but I pray to God this stops the studios from remaking the rest of the Vengeance trilogy. Unless you have someone (star or director) attached who is an unmitigated box office draw, there is no reason from a financial standpoint to redo those movies.
Would, say, George Clooney have been a better choice? How would *that* film have turned out?
Clooney wouldn't do though. But as I said, from a financial standpoint, Josh Brolin isn't going to anchor in cash for a hard R-rated movie.

She looks like she's walking down the runway in that poster.
I'm scared for this movie because the directors are named Russo. Will it end on a giant flag pole? The North Pole?
Captain America's mom + forklift = buys

Sonnen vs. Wanderlei could be on the Weidman vs. Belfort card in May

From what I've heard in the past about Punk, he saves his money (this was brought up when he almost left WWE a couple years ago). So, it would likely just be scratching an itch to get in there and actually compete.

I was thinking he could cut down to 170, but there's so many guys at that weight who would smoke CM Punk.
EVERYBODY AT EVERY WEIGHT COULD.

Apparently the story Pena told White and what Pena's coach said happened are completely different.
Correct me if I'm wrong...
Her coach (Rick Little is his name) basically said Pena basically jumped into training without properly warming up.
Dana said she was "attacked" from behind for wearing TUF gear and fell backwards causing the injuries.

For a person who likely has never cut weight in his life, middleweight would be more logical after fighting at LHW once or twice.
-
What weight class would Punk even fight in? He would be very undersized fighting against guys who cut weight to make 265. He's billed at 218 so he should cut down to 205 if he's serious about MMA.
There are a bunch of guys in the NBA and NFL who are 240-250 pounds and much younger (also sans body destruction from bumping) who ideally would competing at 205. Middleweight would be more his speed if he ever did choose to compete.

Does anyone have any thoughts or info on Overeem training in Thailand? Sometimes a new camp and trainer can pay dividends.
He did some training in Thailand for his last camp, IIRC. Overeem's problems go beyond just his camp. In fights, he just doesn't do a whole lot. When you're fighting other heavy guys, that doesn't lead to good things (i.e. being on the wrong end of two come-from-behind knockouts). And he really isn't a one strike KO guy when all things are equal. There are no more James Thompsons and Tony Sylvesters at his pay grade. He can do it occasionally, but his run in DREAM and K-1 clouded opinions on his knockout power.

This Fantastic Four movie is sounding brutal. Josh Gad as the Thing might be the worst casting in a comic book movie ever. Next let me put on my not a racist hat but Michael B Jordan as the Human Torch changes the story so much. Have they explained how that fits at all?

The first two episodes were good, but the end of episode three was the goddamn money shot.

All the predictions have been saved.
