Just been to see this. Some bits were entertaining, but some bits were unnecessarily stupid:

• One guy setting his foot on fire to kick Eve as if it gives +5 fire damage.

• “I’m not going in there, it’s John Wick, it’s suicide” - Random henchman 1, “He’s just one man” - Random henchman 2, Both proceed to run in and instantly die

• And the biggest annoyance was how so many of the henchmen had guns but insisted on trying to engage in a fist fight.

I’d probably watch the film again a few years from now, but I’d likely be second-screening it.

Let’s hope he’s got the moves

I find it interesting that they have two different actors playing Clark and Superman.

Fortunately I’m not invested in the MCU as much as I once was. Probably worth chucking the spoiler in some spoiler tags though?

Actually maybe not? At this point I don’t know…

Strange that they include Kraven Hunter in the list but not Madame Web which had a greater loss of like $100m?

Watched this film last night with my other half. Before starting I asked what they thought would be the movie out of 5, they said 2.5, I said 3.5.

Secretly I was hoping it would be higher given there was association to the creator of The Raid and The Raid Redemption. Going in I was expecting minimal story with a ton of gory action, and some awesome choreography.

The first car chase scene was a dark, fuzzy, shaky mess with what definitely looked like poor CGI. It was giving me a bit of nostalgia from back when I used to play Max Payne.

Following action sequences were also all shaky cut cam, which really puts me off as you know the choreography is just not great. Where was the clean hard hitting action we would see from the likes of The Raid?

Story wise it met my expectations, a loose plot and helps drive the action sequences forward, but presenting me with a bunch of characters I just didn’t care about.

I think my partner got the guess right, 2.5.

I had read the article, but thought I’d put my guess out to create discussion 🙂

I’m guessing Sydney would be playing Zoe, are we going to have a cringe British accent from her?

Watched Paddington in Peru. Definitely the weakest of the films and was jarring that Mrs Brown was a different actress. It still had its wholesome moments though.

I imagine it varies between countries. In the UK I would say I’m happy for laughter, and the odd gasp. Anything more such as cheering, singing or clapping is not on to me personally.

I was discussing this with a friend, I said I was excited but cautious because Leto hasn’t been a main character in a good movie in a very long time. He said Leto his ups and downs, but when thinking about it he said he realised the last good film Leto was in as a main character was Dallas Buyers Club…12 years ago.

If anything we should get a good soundtrack from this movie.

Yes

I’m surprised by how many comments are taking an optimistic look at these less than good screenings. Especially given the current state of comic book movies.

Lots of people have superhero fatigue, and I believe some of it is down to poor writing on the MCU side. When the MCU first took off the quips and little jokes would get a chuckle, but as time went on they became expected, and generated groans.

My concern with Gunn is his comic book films always have the same feel to them, trying to be serious while also leaning on the side of humour, and throwing lots of characters into the mix. I didn’t enjoy any of his comic book films except for the first GotG, however the Peacemaker TV show was great. I wonder if his style isn’t suited for the current cinematic climate?

I didn’t, but should I ever feel the need to try it I have already watched the tutorial video.

My school did something similar. It recommended I become a fish monger.

They are updating the app at some point, which is removing the watch together feature. I wonder what else may disappear.

It’s interesting that they kept the Wuk exposure to a minimum. Everything looks good, here’s hoping this is the biggest patch yet.

I overall enjoyed Dawntrail. I feel like it brought more to the table in place of a great storyline. Unfortunately I played predominantly for the storyline and I have felt disheartened with the game since Dawntrail. I’m a casual player, resubbing purely for the story.

For me the story started off promising, I liked seeing all the new zones with their graphical updates. The problem was the pacing, I’d get fatigued at certain points where parts of the story were dragged out.

In terms of English voice acting, Wuk was fine, there were a couple of stumbles and that is evident in the fact they rerecorded some bits.

Looking back, I feel like Wuk was a weak character, she was eager to take the throne but knew nothing of the people, yeah I get that was our in to go on that journey with her, but it was unusual given she’d lived in that area all her life. She was pretty one note and we didn’t see much character development. I was happy not to be the center of attention for once, but I’d have preferred if we had a more sophisticated character to follow. Going forward I feel like they need to shelve Wuk like previous expansion characters.

The fights are good fun and I enjoyed the Arcadion. My biggest gripe at the moment is that jobs have lost their identity except for how they look.

I can guess one reason is the Wachowski’s got lucky with The Matrix, similar to how Shyamalan got lucky with The Sixth Sense.
