HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:I believe so, since Urkel also guested on Step By Step. quote:Steve got involved in a rope climbing contest against a jock to try and win the love of Laura, the girl of his dreams. With athletics not being his strong suit, Steve decided to use his brains to win the contest and built a rocket pack to help him win. Of course, since he's a genius and all, you might think he'd realize that was CHEATING!!! But of course where would the comedy be without the rocket pack? The rocket pack helps Steve up the rope, through the roof and up into the wild blue yonder. At 50,000 feet no one could here his plaintive cries of, "Like Icarus I built wings of wax have flown too close to the sun and now will surely die!!!" Or maybe he just went, "WAAAAA!!! OH LADY!!!" Who can say? http://www.poobala.com/familyandstep.html

And then he taught the youngest daughter of the Lambert clan the Urkel dance so all the kids at the Jr. High school would think she was cool again, without her having to succumb to peer pressure!

I honestly don't know who the market is for Valerian, the trailer makes it look like Jupiter Ascending and John Carter (I had to google this because I forgot what the movie was called). It just looks like a generic sci-fi with a worse trailer song than Guardians of the Galaxy.

I can't articulate why but I'm really rooting for Valerian and I'll be disappointed if it doesn't do well. I've never read the comics and I'm not especially fond of the actors and I haven't even watched anything Luc Besson has made since Fifth Element except Lucy and that left me pretty cold but I'm hoping that Valerian turns out good. Please be good, little film.

It just looks like a generic sci-fi with a worse trailer song than Guardians of the Galaxy. There's been a bunch of films that failed recently even though they had pretty good brand recognition (Ghost in the Shell, Trainspotting 2, The Magnificent Seven, Ghostbusters, The BFG, etc) but there's also been a few films that were seemed to be painfully generic that did extremely well (Secret Life of Pets, Sing, Trolls) and a bunch of low budget genre films that just blew up (Get Out, Split, Deadpool) as well as a few films based on IPS that had fan recognition but weren't widely popular that also did really well (Deadpool, The Martian, John Wick 2... I guess also The Jungle Book?). I think it's getting harder to predict what will do well and what will just quietly fall by the wayside.

My favorite thing about Fifth Element is that it's now trendy to have you hair styled after Zorg.

You'd think the guy who made both a GI Joe movie and a Justin Bieber concert film would know how to put together Jem and the Holograms. At least casting Ke$ha as a glow in the dark sewer mutant for the credits scene was a step in the right direction?

After Disney bought ABC they did a huge crossover/marketing synergy event where all of the different shows all went to Disneyland. Including Roseanne, which really conspicuously went against its entire theme of being about a working-class family that struggled to make ends meet.

They're definitely throwing a lot of marketing money at Valerian as two channels last week (FX and Syfy) both aired the new trailer in its entirety during commercial breaks.

One of the best things about Hardcore Henry (which, since everyone's giving opinions, I enjoyed) was in an interview with the directory shortly after the US release. I'm paraphrasing, but the interviewer asked him if he thought first-person cinema was a thing that was going to catch on. And the director replied with, more or less, "God I hope not." It was a fun experiment, but boy howdy would it suck to have FPS movies be the Next Big Thing.

Every man had undercut in the 1930s. Not so many drew the line on top of their head.
