Okay I just got back from seeing Spectre and yeah, Moviebob is full of poo poo. This movie was pretty fun, not as good as Skyfall or Casino Royale, but a solid 007 film that actually has more in common with Roger Moore Bond than anything else. Decent 3 out of 4 Craig films. Nowhere near the level of garbage that Die Another Day or A View To A Kill.

Yeah, that is definitely a valid thing. I just have a really high tolerance for dragged-out gags when I like the original gag. I am possibly five years old.

Nowhere near the level of garbage that Die Another Day or A View To A Kill. Here is an article Bob wrote for Birth Movies Death, a monthly magazine associated with the Alamo Drafthouse: The Marvel Cinematic Universe Is Killing Auteur Theory. Good. Moviebob posted:Without the widespread adoption of their Auteur Theory by film scholars both official and otherwise, we likely wouldn’t have had the New Hollywood moment of the '70s, the rise of the mega-director (hello, Mr. Spielberg) in the '80s, the reappraisal of hardworking/undervalued genre greats in the '90s/'00s, none of that. It is without question of the most vital sea-changes in terms of how a medium sees itself. gently caress you, Bob. New Hollywood was an era in film-making from '68 to '80. Not exactly a moment, and a lot of great movies came out of that time, and mega-directors was the 70's also, like when Spielberg made Jaws and Close Encounters... Moviebob posted:If this is the paradigm that the success of the “producer-driven” MCU threatens to knock down, I say let it fall – it’s about drat time. It may not be right for every project, but Kevin Feige and company running Marvel’s machinery in the Old Hollywood “Here’s the movie we want to make, find the director who can deliver it” fashion (you know, the way a whole slew of the greatest and most-memorable films of all time were made) has been working like gangbusters for the better part of a decade now. The funny thing is, movies like Amazing Spider-man 2 and Josh Trank's Fantastic Four also have the fingeprints of the Studio system all over them (Studio demanded reshoots, screenplays that feel like the mash up for 3 screenplays), but they are not talked about. Moviebob posted:And if we can indeed thank a “filmmaker-driven” approach for a gloomy, neck-breaking Superman, Bro’seiden and (for some reason) Jared Leto, I feel pretty comfortable leaving my chips on whatever you call the approach that says “Hey, how about we ask that weirdo from SUPER to make our Space Raccoon movie!?”  it's the film-makers's fault that Warner Bros is trying to do with DC what Marvel did and is failing. It's not an incompetent studio trying to emulate something and not having patience. tl;dr - MovieBob gets Lockjaw giving Marvel Studios a massive blowjob.

What/Who is Bro'seiden and why are they/it as grave a sin as neck breaking Superman and Jared Leto? Neither of which are actually bad. Is it Jason Momoa Aquaman? Are we throwing nerdrage tantrums over a single promotional image that looks pretty good now? Then again it's probably because he's not a clean cut Aryan guy in an orange shirt.

I think it's because he looks edgy in a hot topic, "You are trying to hard" kind of way. Leto is just in a no win situation. Anyone after Heath Ledger has big shoes to fill. I think come release, Suicide Squad and Batman V Superman will have bigger problems than it's actors and the looks. I'll still see Suicide Squad though.

The example he posted is quite possibly the dumbest thing I have ever heard from someone not trying to troll. Augus posted:Okay seriously gently caress this guy. Don't over think the article. Bob loves the MCU, so he is bending cinematic theory to suit his bias. That's why he makes a dig at the DC shared universe. DC bad, Marvel good, so cinematic theory must be made to fit that narrative. DC's shared universe is studio driven as well, just it is being executed poorly.

EDIT: Never mind, there's a link in the article, and it is referring to Aquaman appearing in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Really, the worst I could say about that is that it's reminiscent of that late 90s/early 2000s era version of Aquaman where he had the mullet and a hook hand.

It was pretty good, lasted long enoguh to have a few cool stories. New Aquaman kept teaming up with King Shark, which was cool.

Remember Movie Bob is the one who said that Other M isn't misogynist and that everyone who doesn't like it is racist because they just don't get Japanese culture. And onto something even stupider.

achillesforever6 posted:Yeah except when the director is Joss Whedon and he has to add all his dumb quips and think he is being a groundbreaking feminist director because he puts in scenes where women punch men. I'm glad that the TV division is picking up the slack where the film side has failed over and over. Mass market movies have little incentive to be feminist because so much of their money comes from screenings in international markets that don't want to see women in charge. TV's market is largely domestic, so they can tailor the product to American (or Canadian or whatever) tastes.

The amount of leaps in logic the film goes through to tie all the Craig movies together is just baffling. And the "reveal" is so lovely and pointless that I couldn't believe a James Bond movie in 2015 actually did it. They took Goldmember and Star Trek Into Darkness and smooshed them together into this uneven, and fairly ugly looking movie.. gently caress Spectre. Dumber than Die Another Day. But not quite as boring as A View To a Kill.
