Right? And they would usually have red tags instead of the standard blue because they were a 24 or 48 hour rental.




I remember moving to the East side and discovering Red Giraffe Video. Their rentals for movies and SNES games was 7 days, standard. That was where I discovered this strategy game called "Gemfire". Dunno why I liked that game so much, as its the only one of it's genre I've ever played, but I rented that game for a month straight.






Mmmmeeeemmoooorrrriiieeeesssssssss.

Yeah Terminator 2: Judgement Day was so good my dad let me watch it when I was 7 or 8.
It coloured my imagination permanently.
James Cameron turned out to be a huge weirdo but I guess that’s the thin end of the wedge in Hollywood. Plus he’s smart enough to leave Terminator alone now. If he directs another Terminator then it’s because Avatar turns out to be a Ponzi scheme he wasn’t in on.

T2 is unquestionably a better made film. That said, the first film has a level of tension that, while not absent in T2, is severely lessened by the the sole fact that the protagonists have their own walking killing machine protecting this time around. So I can totally see people who lean more towards horror and suspense preferring the first film.

Seanny One Ball 08-02-2021 06:41 PM

There’s no argument to be made over which is the better film.

Lock Jaw 08-02-2021 06:42 PM

Not objectively, but subjectively somebody could like the first one better.


Anyways, I'm very excited to see The Suicide Squad.

Seanny One Ball 08-02-2021 06:45 PM

Only a serial rapist would say they preferred The Terminator.

Got my tickets to see it Friday in IMAX. Going with my youngest brother, who I haven’t seen a movie with in almost two years. V excited.

Yeah, what's the deal with a "totally different" movie anyway? Just two director's with different visions or whatever?

Damian Rey 2.0 08-03-2021 05:30 PM

The first director delivered a turd that the studio appears to have butchered due to meddling and wanting it to be more guardians of the galaxy. Then Gunn got canned from Disney for a bit and WB ran and gave him this franchise to go ape shit work and apparently it’s paid off.

I’m interested to see Ayer’s cut but I’m not trying to pretend he’s some grade A filmmaker. He’s very hit or miss, critically.

Like 5 minutes in and I'm already cracking up.

This was fantastic. Really enjoyed it.

Cena has definitely improved as an actor. He has some really good moments in this moments in this movie. He might actually be my favorite character in the movie.

Margo did a much better job with Harvey's accent this time. Feel like it was barely there in the first one.

SPOILER: show
Only thing I didn't like was Boomerang getting axed so soon. He was one of the few bright spots in the first film and I was disappointed we didn't get more from him in this one. Feel like he would have had great chemistry with the other team.

I actually liked this film; I'd say it is probably the best of the recent DC films, which isn't saying much, given how low the bar was to begin with, but Gunn definitely undid the clusterfuck of the first film.

I look forward to GotG 3.

That opening storming the beach scene was insane.

Suicide Sauad

Lock Jaw 08-08-2021 04:42 PM

Was good. First half was kinda meh, but once they got to Jotunheim it became very good.

Seanny One Ball 08-08-2021 11:44 PM

Fuck off...

Destor 08-08-2021 11:46 PM

wasnt a big fan of birds of prey. i liked huntress

drave 08-11-2021 08:47 AM

What a helluva movie, seriously the best I've seen in a very long while. From start to finish, it just kept it moving. The comedy is fucking great. I now understand what people mean when they speak about Gunn.

Damian Rey 2.0 08-11-2021 06:02 PM

Suddenly wanna see Gunn’s original vision for the live action Scooby Doo film

they should probably just go with that. 4th one can be:

"Hey! They're The Suicide Squad"

Destor 08-19-2021 05:36 PM

Hey look! Its The Suicide Squad

drave 08-20-2021 08:16 AM

Can fit "Jinkies!" in there too, for the inevitable Scooby Doo crossover.

Sepholio 08-20-2021 08:35 AM

Who's Under That Mask? ZOINKS, It's The Suicide Squad.

drave 08-20-2021 08:39 AM

Wanna see a Shaggy based mini-series that follows him on bad trips and explains why he hears Scooby talk, by Gunn
