Fignuts played right into their trap haha.

They got me to buy their amazing game, by showing me an amazing movie.

I feel like such a sucker.

Subliminal messaging.

Finally got my copy of Beat Takeshi's "Violent Cop".

There's not much I look forward to more than a Beat Takeshi film. The man is a genius.

The Mule-7/10

A good, surprisingly funny at times movie about an old deadbeat dad/husband who turns to trafficking after his life fails him. It's nothing memorable, but it's an enjoyable 2 hours with a kinda meh ending.

Aquaman - 7.5/10

The biggest spectacle of any superhero film yet. It's an 80's action film meets a video game. Has a "Star Wars but underwater" vibe to it. I thought it was a blast! It's not the best or most deep superhero film, but it's definitely worth watching for the huge spectacle of it all. The kids in the theater really seemed to like it. The girl sitting next to me got excited whenever Mera was onscreen.

Standouts are Jason Mamoa, Amber Heard, Willem Dafoe and Nicole Kidman.

Bumblebee - 6.5/10

Surprisingly decent. Haven't enjoyed a Transformers movie since the first one.

Birdbox 3.5 / 4

Really good. Tense. Not "scary" like the trailers make it seem. More survival drama. One of the better versions of it out there. Netflix finally has a good full length "A" movie of it's own.

Aquaman-7/10

Goofy, funny, campy loud fun. This is what man of steel should've been really. The Atlantis stuff is really cool. The set and sound design are fun. I like how they handled Black Manta. The DCEU lives.

I hope he says something along the lines of "Yeah!" or "My Man!" in the movie.

Aquaman - 9/10

Thought it was great..... a lot of "similarities" to Black Panther via a secret kingdom and clashes over who will rule it.... I think this was a much better movie but will not get recognized even half as much.

He does not say "My Man!" In the movie...... there may be a few "yeah"s and "woooooohoooooo"s

I did not expect you to say 9/10 and comparisons to Black Panther are pretty exciting.

Could it be better than Wonder Woman? Is it the best DC film?

I probably would have rated it 8.5, but I rated Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse that, and I think I liked this more (hard to compare them really, they are two different types of movies).

I think I'll still give the nod to Wonder Woman because of the perfect casting of Gal Gadot. Even after a movie I really liked, I'm still not sold that there couldn't have been a much better choice than Jason Mamoa for Aquaman.

Also please keep in mind that I am a DC fan-boy who is skewed to like DC things (Though who can acknowledge when they make terrible movies like BvS. I enjoyed Justice League, though)

BvS wasn't a terrible movie at all. It was a massive waste of potential though.

DC movies so far have peaked at Man Of Steel and Wonder Woman for me. I think WW wa the better film but I am very keen on seeing more done with what DC has to offer. Flash was wonderful in Justice League, I hope he gets a film.

I don't know what Aquaman looks like in the comics but I thought Momoa was good business on DC's end.

He was in Conan and was good but the movie was mediocre so you can see parallels with Chris Evans(Fantastic Four sucked then he did Cap. America for dirt cheap salary and now he's the best Avenger) of Marvel.
Maybe Momoa is the lynchpin that they need. Maybe he'll be their Cap.

BvS was pretty bad.

They've been working on a Flash film for awhile, but it keeps changing directors and titles....

BvS was a 2/4 I think. It was a big waste but I did enjoy large chunks of it.

I dunno maybe it's just because Henry Cavill is my Superman. I think he's great.

I enjoyed him in Justice League. Not so much in Man of Steel, and pretty much not at all in BvS.

Superman is a cunt in JL. Embarrassed for Cavill in that movie.

I didn’t really like BvS mainly because almost everything was in the trailers. And I was going to the theater a lot then leading ito it, so I saw said trailers several times. Will never forgive them for spoiling Wonder Woman in that movie. It was fucking Batman vs Superman. You didn’t need her in the trailers to sell it, and it would have been such an amazing moment had I not already seen it 5 times.

Hahaha! Kingsman 2 had Colin Firth on the poster.

He sure did. I wouldn't go as far as to say it was a great film but certainly a very enjoyable experience.

Also appreciate that they're still shooting DC movies on film rather than digital. Looks more pleasing than Marvel.

That was very stupid. Could say the same about the second Fantastic Beasts film.

I've only ever seen the original Harry Potter film. I just don't have the time or inclination to absorb however many more hours of it there are.

Aquaman was shot digital

That's a burn.

Oh snap! I stand corrected.

I was genuinely under the impression that DC movies were shot on film.

Aquaman is blonde in the comics but both he and Mera are definitely pretty badass in general in the comics as well.

Bird Box - 8.5/10

Really tense. Good film. Strong performance from Sandra Bullock, who I thought had good chemistry w/ her male costar Trevante Rhodes (Moonlight). But to be honest, Sandra never has bad chemistry with anyone really. I had no idea Sarah Paulson was in it at all so that was a pleasant surprise. Ditto for John Malkovich, Jackie Weaver and Danielle MacDonald.

In 2018 Machine Gun Kelly shares the screen w/ Sandra Bullock and John Malkovich. Lol


Love Sarah Paulson even though Seanny One Ball h8s her!!

I have to admit she has grown on me. I watched the American Gothic series and she was great in it.

Venom. 7 of 10. Good fun movie.

I think it's on par with Black Panther and a little less than Wonder Woman, which is still peak DCEU. That said it's ridiculously entertaining and the fact that they embrace the camp of it all makes it that much more fun. Everyone gets to ham it up and it's glorious. Complete 180 from the overly serious attempts from Snyder.

Atlantis visually is great.

Now that's a movie post.

Also, Amber Heard is really fucking pretty.

She is but she has never once been impressive as an actress. She doesn't deserve the career she has at all. Remember Estella Warren? She did Kangaroo Jack and then disappeared. She looks just like her and that's the best thing I can say about Amber Heard.

Amber is pretty good here. I mean, not ground breaking or anything. But she's not Katie Holmes in Batman Begins.

Aquaman 10/10. Quiet possibly my favorite super hero movie of all time. Granted I know nothing of the origin so I went in with no backstory except talking to fish.

Everything was well done. Even the actress lady was on point during the film. 1000000% loved that .

Movie was hilarious also. Perfect mix of laughs and serious moments. Crushed WW imo. Fight scenes were superb.

Literally went to go see Deadpool 2 but they cancelled the movie so we went to Aquaman instead.

So I should go see this ASAP really is what you're all telling me?

First film in a cinema since 2008.

Yes.
