Dude Garry Shandling is much bigger than loving Iron Man 2.

That's horrible to hear. :( Larry Sanders show was goddamn amazing and way ahead of it's time.

Garry Shandling, aka Senator Stern from Iron-Man 2 and The Winter Soldier, apparently passed away today.

drat shame we'll never get to see him tell Stark to go gently caress himself ever again :(

Awww, this makes me sad. I was just thinking about his character last week. I was hoping we would see more of him in future Marvel movies because he was working for Hydra.

How are you people surprised? He looked like a walking corpse in Winter Soldier.

He was only 66 years old, and that doesn't change the fact that this is sudden and sad.

This just happened today too. Reports are saying he was fine this morning and then a 911 call was made from his home, he was transported to the hospital where he was apparently awake and talking and then he died. loving crazy how that can just happen.

Obviously, but look at the thread title. IM2 and Winter Soldier are his relevance to the subject of comic book movies.

This shit's about to go off.
Is he in Civil War? Would be weird if that was his last screen role.

e: though if he's not apparently Winter Soldier is his last screen role

He just filmed an episode of Jerry Seinfeld's "Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee" with a very grim title.

look at it, look at the lines, look at it and see the text behind it

this was printed in a magazine

someone chose that still image to serve as material to send to print media outlets as part of an advertising campaign

WHY?

BvS.

Slow start, a little bit of a meandering plot. Good second act, killer third act. Fantastic finale. Loved it overall.

Batman vs Superman:

The Good:

-Excellent fight scenes
-Wonder Woman and Batfleck were great in their roles and I want to see more
-Jessie Eisenberg did an amazing take on Lex
-Doomsday felt deadly, a rarity for CGI blobs
-Very pretty colours and scenery
-The score was well done
-Mama Kent was the soul of that movie

The Bad:

This movie is long. Could have been edited down a lot.
-Superman. I like Henry Cavill but he felt like a hanger on to his own movie.
-Dream sequences that went on and on. Bleh
-Needed more time with Kent and Lois as them. Superman and Lois felt rushed and left Superman looking like a whiney loser.

Deduction; not as terrible as I first thought. If you like super hero movies, it's at least better than Green Lantern.
