Movie Thread

Has anyone here discussed The Hunt being pulled from release because Trump and his mindless minions criticized the film as glorifying the hunting of "deplorables", even though it was patently obvious from the trailer that the people being hunted are the heroes of the film?

I meant to bring it up, since it's been on the news recently. IMO, it was simply him trying to "screw the unfair liberal Hollywood". I wouldn't have pulled the film, personally, and don't think it would have been in bad taste.

Wow... yet The Purge lives on.

That would be awesome.

Have not seen Okja, but enjoyed his other movies. This looks good too.

Quick article search and I could get on board with Tom Hardy (he’s great) or Jake Gyllenhaal (cut like in South Paw)

[NTP66]

Neither of them are big enough for the role of Sabretooth, IMO.

Woof, the first two Mission Impossible films haven't aged well. Particularly MI:2. But you know what? Thandie Newton has aged well.

Watched Masters of the Universe with the fam last night. Forgot that Teela was also Bruces wife in Last Boyscout. The movie is completely ridiculous and doesn't make much sense at all, but it's still awesome. Boys loved it, wife and the daughter made fun of it throughout. Good times. He-man is so polite, respectful and well mannered in this movie, it's kinda weird. Still stand by my statement that they should have stayed in Eternia. It looks like they put an action figure on the screen and just moved it around real fast when Dolph is riding the hover board thing. Didn't look it up, but I'm guessing at least 3 oscar noms in 1987 for this.

They're are bad and seem like they're from a completely different series than the rest of the films. Even though it was five years until the next movie, JJ Abrams' MI:3 is largely responsible for the series becoming what it is. He also cast Michelle Monaghan in the movie, which will always get two thumbs up from me.

Your excellent review is in conspicuously devoid of any comments regarding how adorable 22 year old Courtney Cox is.

I wonder how much He-Man's politeness had to do with Dolph's poor grasp on English at that point. They planned on dubbing him, but his contract stipulated that he got three attempts to get things right before they used someone else. In the end they didn't have the budget to loop over his voice and were left with the hero speaking in elementary school age dialogue.

[NTP66]

How eloquent did they expect somebody named "He-Man" to be?

I go Teela, Evil-Lyn, then Julie WInston. That's no knock on CC, all 3 are great, maybe it's the costumes, I don't know?

That's hilarious, I had no idea. He speaks like 5 times in the movie and the one sentence with more than 4 words is barely audible because of laser fire. He does nail I HAVE THE POWER though

I meant for wolverine.

[eddy]

The biggest mystery in the movie is that there is literally no extras anywhere to be seen in the movie. Kevin Corrigan has a big gig at the school dance, but here is nobody around the school at all throughout the night. A lot of no shows I guess?

I'm also almost certain that is Hawkins School from stranger things in the movie.

Joackman did a good job with the role, but I hope that the next person that they get to play Wolverine actually fits the character. Wolverine was in the area of 5'3 in the comics for the first 30 or so years. Not 6'3 like Jackman. That's why he was called the Wolverine, he was fierce, but small. The bad guys often called him "runt" and "shrimp".

Get someone little to play Wolverine.

[dodint]

Tom Cruise?

[AuthorTony]

Danny Devito

Yep. Probably should have been Danny DeVito instead of Jackman...

Glenn Danzig finally gets his shot.

I am currently watching "The Upside"... I would rather have Kevin Hart play Wolverine than another 6' guy.
