Get in line.

I am also sympathetic to the idea of getting behind Morena Baccarin.

her and Margot as Harley in the new movie could be a heck of a thing

Pro tip: Do not search "sexy mind blow gif" unless you are in Incognito Mode. Learn from the mistakes of others.

Watched braveheart in 4k last night, dang, what an incredible movie.

I was trying to figure out why Morena was not on my radar before Gotham. It's apparently because she made some terrible hair choices.

Finally caught Black Panther. It was very good, though I didn't think Michael B. Jordan's character was that great.

Hopefully, it's better than Ninjago: The Movie.

Without Googling it, does anyone want to guess who the guy on the right is?

[tifosi77]

That's clearly Jet Li, but please tell me he does not actually look like that now and he's just in Old Man Weyland makeup.

[NTP66]

It is, and that is him now. He’s battling severe hyperthyroidism again and just looks a shell of his former self. He can’t even walk without assistance, apparently.

[Dickie Dunn]

Well that's pretty **** sad, though this was him back in January so I think being a **** ass picture is contributing to his Weyland appearance.

[tifosi77]

That's still sad. He's only in his 50s, but he looks like early movie Benjamin Button.

[NTP66]

And yet, he could still probably kick all of out asses.

[shafnutz05]

Man...that is sad.

[NTP66]

There's no excuse for such poor CGI in 2018, IMO.

I'm also not sure why we need two live action Jungle Book movies. I get that one is Disney and this one is based on the book, but do people really care?

[NTP66]

This one is supposed to be "darker", but I agree - I see no need for two of them. The most recent Jungle Book was enjoyable, IMO.

No. I completely expect this to crash and burn at the box office. This movie started production before The Jungle Book, both films had their casts announced in August 2014, yet Disney beat them to the punch by two years. This movie (plus their focus on the live action The Lion King remake) might have a negative impact on whatever plans Disney has/had for a sequel to The Jungle Book, but no one is going to give a **** about this movie.

[NTP66]

This one just doesn't look good. And all of the animals looks far too much like humans.

[grunthy]

Wtf is with Warner Brothers thinking people want to see a “dark” movie? Why haven’t they learned from the other flops?

[tifosi77]

Mowgli is interesting if only because Andy Serkis is directing.
