The fans of the comic don't seem to think so. Most critics like it though.

I haven't read the comics so I can't tell you how it compared but yeah, I enjoyed it. I'd watch Joe Gilgun read the phone book though.

Away all Goats posted:Don't you mean Ramsay? He straight up murders the most powerful man in the region and everyone just kinda goes along with it. Including a guy who was upset about his own dad getting murdered. But said guy whose dad (Karstark, right?) was murdered hated anyone who liked the Starks. So he was fine with hating the Starks. He probably liked Roose but when you're standing next to a guy who just knived his dad in the gut, you clearly take his side not the dad's. Compared to Umber who didn't like Roose period, felt he was a oval office, but whatever, here's the last Stark heir, Ramsay, you take care of him....? Compared to Littlefinger who has hosed over every major family, often is in striking range of a member of that family, and every loving time they let him walk away. There was NO loving reason for Sansa to let him walk away when she has loving Brienne right there to cut his rear end down, especially with Sansa thinking he knowingly walked her into a Ramsay Rape trap. He's already shown himself to be an enemy but no, Sansa will lie about him and send her main protection awayand Littlefinger walks again. The funny thing is, for Sansa, being locked in the tower was probably the only odd thing about the marriage. Husbands owned wives, it wasn't considered raping them, and leaving bruises, well, gently caress, it happens. Had she been married to Roose instead, I doubt there would have been beatings and being locked in the tower, but the nightly visits, or even weekly visits, might have still left her in shock. Man I am so sick of the Bran story. Has there ever been a more whiny character?

I want someone to make a prequel to the Cars films that shows how they killed all the humans and bulldozed them into mass graves. Might not make for an attraction at Disney World, though.

X-Men Apocalypse: The thing that wakes Apocalypse up after like 5000 years is sunlight hitting the gold device thing that the cultists worship. Sunlight has really never struck that thing before? They've never had a cultist running late one day, and opened up the door while the sun was in position to shine down the cave?

in Xmen and 9999 other movies Totally unnecessarily complex impossible jet/space ship/ hovercraft can you fly this thing Sure, why not *flies it perfectly, does complex maneuvers that would take tons of training and practice using unfamiliar controls of unique prototype* It added nothing to the movie and was pointless other than cool whizbang vehicle CGI

X-Men Days of Future Past Near the end, future time is fighting all the robots, and they're going WE NEED MORE TIME, but Wolverine hadn't done anything in like, twenty minutes. He got all wired up and dumped in the water. It doesn't really matter when he wakes up, the past had already been changed. He had no impact on what was happening. Also, that Magneto felt the need to be like "yo, these murderbots are under mutant control, we're better than y'all, gently caress youuuuu" instead of just going all low-key, letting the murderbots look like they went out of control and then having that ruin the reputation of the guy that made them. Nope. Gotta grand stand and give everyone a real good reason to hate the mutants.

Trent posted:in Xmen and 9999 other movies I like when it's a character from the far future trying to pilot a relatively mundane plane like it's really a comparison. "I can fly a time machine spaceship, how hard can a jumbo jet be?" With how streamlined the controls would have become by 500 years in the future, even since now, it should be like going back to trying to drive the Ford Model T.

That's kind of Magneto's thing, isn't it? He wants people to fear and respect mutants, and is over the top about how they're superior and the next step of humanity.

Aphrodite posted:Plane controls are fairly standardized, I imagine. It's a government plane in the movie, not some weird alien thing. That plane has VTOL and segmented flappy bird wings. It was 'government' in the same way Weapon X was government. Regardless, maybe maybe someone who can fly a c130 could fly a f14 or whatever real-world comparison you'd like to make, but they sure won't be doing any fancy maneuvers. The real reason it's so irritating is that it usually adds nothing to the movie. At least in something like ID4 it's integral to the plot, and at least in EP7 they bang the poo poo out of the xwing even with the hotshotest of pilots

There's a deleted scene in ID4 where Smith, Goldblum and some of the Area 51 guys talk about the modifications to the alien ship so he could fly it.

I got the ID4 book as a gift and, you know, it wasn't that bad. Yeah, I was surprised as well. All the stupid poo poo in the movie actually had some pretty decent (for sci fi) justifications*. Area 51 had spent half a century working on the fallen craft and had figured out a hell of a lot, despite not being able to duplicate its power source. Then they had several days of it being fully operational to further their knowledge. Even then, the ships were designed to be as simple as possible to fly because the aliens basically never upgraded their poo poo and were extremely paranoid about each other. That's why the one big ship powered everything, controlled all the other ships' shields, and was the only one sending out the countdown signal. All the attack craft were just uneducated cannon fodder, capable of nothing more than pressing buttons and killing people. The marines, basically. But with less rape. * Yes, even the "virus" they uploaded into the mothership. Even though it was a pretty big stretch. Megillah Gorilla has a new favorite as of 17:52 on May 29, 2016 |

The dumbest thing about ID4 is still that they sent air superiority fighters up first. Like it's possible an infantry division may have been less useful but I suspect even they would have some long-range explodey stuff at their disposal.
