Same here. Let's see, four more movies I don't ever want to see again...all comic-book movies: Catwoman (2004) Wanted (2008) X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009) Jonah Hex (2010)

For all its cheesiness, it's worth it for Jeffrey Jones as the Dark Overlord of the Universe. His second best role (after Ferris Bueller's Day Off). I also get a kick out of the fact that everyone complained about Howard looking "just like a man in a duck suit". Throughout the entire run of the...

He was probably thinking of the Sofia Coppola film from 2017. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5592248/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0 But there was also a 2012 film with that title: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2190098/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_7

I think I mentioned this in another thread, but when I saw Aliens in 70mm in Boston, at the point where Ripley, Newt, Hicks, and Bishop get back up to the Sulaco, a number of people stood up and started to leave. For the first time in my life in a movie theater, I spoke up loudly, "It's not over...

Well, I couldn't finish the books, to be honest. I stopped in the middle of The Two Towers. Coincidentally, right about the point where Ralph Bakshi's animated film ended. The only complaint I really had about The Return of the King was its seemingly endless string of endings.

Atomic Blonde is unexpected. Technically, it's a comic book film, as it was adapted from a graphic novel. But it's actually a cold-war thriller / action movie. There's a lot to be said about that. I've known plenty of people who never understood what the fuss was about 2001: A Space Odyssey...

I've seen just one Transformers picture, and one F&F. In both instances, they turned out to be side movies to the franchise. In the former case, it was Bumblebee, which I hadn't known was part of the Transformers universe until I watched it. I neither liked nor disliked it. In the latter case...

Now, see...I have to disagree. Not about whether any of the Burton or Schumacher films, or The Batman could be considered good, but that any of them, however bad they might be, is far, far better than the atrocity that was the 1966 Adam West Batman film. ;)

Same director, yes; Swedish, no. As Mikael said, it's Dutch.

I'm assuming that you're referring to Arrival (Denis Villeneuve, 2016) rather than The Arrival (David Twohy, 1996). ;)

I disagree. To me, it felt like Pitt was attempting to channel Dennis Hopper's performance from Apocalypse Now. I find it interesting that it's been mentioned here a few times, as well. But only because I absolutely love the film, and have seen it more times than I can count. Just watched it...
