Most intelligent reply yet. |

I agree.
I think they should skip out on Captain America all together. If the entire Avengers groups builds up Captain America then *maybe* do the spin off movie. |
Perfect idea. It's practically what they are doing with X-Men...they already did the trilogy, and now they will do the spin-off 'origin' movies, starting with Wolverine in May 2009. |

Let's just hope this Marvel Studios thing is a big pay off. |

The review highlights pretty much the same things that I would take issue with when watching this kind of film, and explains them pretty well.
Given that I happen to agree with most of what is said in the articles, I guess that means I'm an ultra-pretentious trying to appear hip? :conf:
In any case I'm glad there is someone not willing to keel over to the "don't take it seriously, its supposed to kind of suck!" crowd that is always trying to get me to see these movies. |
Pretty much, you're agreeing with the one decent review against the movie because it goes along with your assumptions.
Not all movies are meant to be arthouse masterpieces. |

I mean, do you guys go to a theater and see what you think you might maybe enjoy because other people said it was good even though it's not your kind of film at all, or do you choose the best possible choice that will most likely satisfy you and that you think is WORTH not only 8$, but includes the opportunity cost of not seeing other films that may be more worthwhile for you? All this of course, considering you go to the theater maybe once every 2 months.
Again, I don't see what is so amazingly difficult to understand here. When I go to see a movie at a theater I usually try and pick what I MOST want to have the luxury of seeing in that setting on a big screen, not just whatever I think will be mildly entertaining since I have nothing better to do that watch movies all day and am ting out 8$ in convenient little rolled packets. 8$ is 3 tracks a beatport, 8$ is a whole Hot Dog/Soda combo @ AMC! |
some one, hurry up and get a tampon! |

You'd think I had raped everyone's mother and pissed on her face by the outcry in this thread. :stongue:
All I need now is Fallingmoon to come in and say Iron Man is the best movie ever and anyone who doesn't like it is a poop . :stongue: :stongue:
Haha, found it:

So I FINALLY saw it last nite (which it was still selling out BTW)
This is the best movie everrrrrrr that was soooo fuking awesome & whoever decides to disagree should get hung by their testicle or titty.
oh but seriously like could it have been any better? From how the autobots looked to the action scenes everything was perfect.
Optimus Prime was on point.
I know there HAS to be a part 2 and I can't wait.
Oh & the chick is like uber hott :crazy:
/sounding like a dude. |

High standards are fine, but apply them in the correct manner.
No, a superhero movie isn't going to have crazy-ass Memento plot set ups, but it's not supposed to. Judge it according to its genre. Movies can be enjoyable without being deep. |

| Good film...I generally judge whether a film is worth seeing from using Rottentomatoes.com. If only I checked it before I went to ing see Pathfinder. |
