Sucker Punch was absolutely pointless garbage. It’s like one of those movies like “The Golden Child”where everybody has seen it but nobody liked it.
Weird. That doesn’t look funny at all. That just looks like the type of movie critics will pretend is funny so they can feel intelligent.
The funny will definitely be secondary. Surely with that cast, the comet rushing towards Earth is an allegory for how humans are all doomed because we're ignoring climate change / the opioid crisis / human trafficking despite the fact that all we have to do is "look up, it's right in front of you!" and they'll masturbate all over each other to hand out awards at the Oscars.
I thought it was a movie at first too... but then realized that they're making it a series. I'm liking their series... The Mandalorian was great, and here's hoping they can do the same quality with this one.
Marvel is doing a whole intra-phase thing where instead of movies they're making limited series. So 10 episodes or so to move Scarlet Witch, Falcon/Captain America, Loki, Hawkeye, The Watcher, Kang the Conquerer, etc into position for the next phase (which I assume is just crazy comic multiverse madness). They're not intended to be multi-season series like The Mandalorian, and it's something I've been expecting more and more of since on-demand TV became ubiquitous. I give Disney a lot of props for experimenting with the medium like this using their biggest franchise. There are a lot of stories you can tell in more time than a 90 minute movie, but without needing years and dozens of episodes to tell. Whereas once the TV-miniseries was the lowest form of filmmaking, I think it will evolve to become one of the highest. Chernobyl was an excellent example of this.
The BBC does an excellent job of this as well... no pushing for the next season, or looking for syndication... just have a good story, tell it in 6 episodes, and done. I think for me, True Detective was the first very high-end mini series that I remember... in that it seemed to be of higher quality than a movie. It's also one of the first that I remember where big-named actors were actually in a series like that.
Mare Of Easttown. A brilliant miniseries and Kate Winslet’s best performance ever. That show is how it is done perfectly, just like season 1 of True Detective.
Sounds like his father really did a number on him. I'm just confused as to why he's yelling at street musicians and not ringing a bell in some cathedral in France. Anyway, that movie looks lame and Jennifer Lawrence sucks the enjoyment out of anything she's in.
Breaking Bad stretches the mold to its absolute breaking point, but it does fit. The guy said "here's the story I'm telling, it's gonna take 5 seasons and *no more*" and AMC actually agreed. Unlike the dessicated walking corpse that is The Walking Dead.
Looks pretty good. This focuses on the detective side of Batman, and less the one-man-army gadgets and vehicles,
