    Fun The Last Movie That You Watched?

    False. TFA was better written, better acted, better cast, all around more entertaining, and at least felt like a Star Wars movie.

    Review The Dark Knight (2008)

    Read what I wrote, I refuted all of your points except 2, neither of which you supported in your reply. You have confused what you like with what is important. Half your reply was "trolling." It boils down to this .. TDK didn't make a different to technology, culture, or anything else. If it...

    If I take a bite of a meal and it tastes horrible, do I need to eat it all? No.

    Review The Dark Knight (2008)

    Yes, I'm very serious. 1) Transformers RF which came out a year later was also shot in imax. Does that also make Transformers important? No. 2) You're really reaching and even if that is true, so what? IMAX is still a niche. 3) Now you're joking. Raimi's Spiderman led to superhero movies being...

    Review The Dark Knight (2008)

    I read about half way and it's begging the question. It says The Dark Knight is important because The Dark Knight is important, and then makes a lot of references that it never really ties to the movie.

    The Last Jedi. The worst Star Wars movie yet. Direct to DVD quality writing. Pandering to children and marketing, poorly. 1/4

    Averaging maybe 15-20 posts/week, and most of those are Doctor Omega. How is it working out?

    Review The Dark Knight (2008)

    Why is it important? Has it had a profound impact on pulp culture, technology, filmmaking?

    Fun The Last Movie That You Watched?

    Sleeper. Interesting how relevant it is today. The dialog felt like it was written this year. 3/4 How It Ends. Two very talented actors on a roadtrip to save a damsel in distress. Simple, but very well acted. The ending may not be to everyone's taste. 3/4

    Review Westworld (2016)

    Does anyone here watch new series? It seems like it's just old tv show discussion. Well I finished S2 and what a disappointment. It started bad and ended worse, but mid season was good. Probably won't watch S3 unless they hire new showrunners, which won't happen.

    Transformers: The Last Knight (2017) - 2/4, meh Ice Station Zebra (1968) - 3/4, I think it would have benefited from tighter editing. It was good, but almost 2.5 hours long. Cutting another 30 minutes would have helped with pacing.

    Dirty Grandpa with DeNiro, hilarious.

    Review Westworld (2016)

    I'm about 1/2 way through S2, excellent television. End of S1 and beginning of S2 were getting to be the Dolores Show but thankfully Showtime pulled back quickly and focused on other characters. Dolores is interesting but Evan Wood isn't leading lady material. She's a good actress but lacks...

    Fun Soda Pop

    I was raised on pop (soda pop), Coke, Pepsi, Mountain Dew (it'll tickle your innards!), Mellow Yellow, 7Up, Ginger Ale, Dr Pepper, Mr Pibb, Orange Crush, Fanta, root beer, all of it. I rarely drank a glass of water before my 30's. Then at some point I decided it was empty calories and quit. Now...

    Controversial Rant Space

    No one wants to do most jobs, that's why companies pay people. No one wants to sling burgers, spend 9 hours in a bank window, at a cash register, or bag groceries, or many other things. That excuse that no one will do those jobs is BS, it's just that no one will do them as cheaply as illegals...

    Controversial Rant Space

    As I said before, a country has a DUTY, an obligation, to defend and control its borders. Families shouldn't be broken apart but they shouldn't be coming here either so they do share responsibility for their dilemma. The problem is they are not all Mexican so we can't just push whole families...

    Review 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)

    I've seen this movie a bunch of times but I've never watched it start to finish without falling asleep. Zonked every time.

    Controversial Rant Space

    That's an interesting hypothetical but the problem at hand is illegal immigration into the US which is driven primarily by the availability of work. Shut off off employment and we will shut off a significant portion of the illegals coming here. Most of the construction business in the US now...

    Fun The Birth of IMDF!

    I'm using current movie as an example of the inconvenience of having so many overlapping forums. A user really shouldn't have to resort to search to figure out where to post about current movies. I could make a thread about Incredibles 2 in about 5 different subforums and they would all be the...

    Review Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018)

    Took my kid to see this and she enjoyed it but it's a mediocre film. There are good things, like the "Nosferatu moment" referenced above, lots of great shadow play and implied violence. Pretty good cgi. The brachiosaurs still look like cgi. I wish I hadn't already seen the first one about 20x...
