Best movie experience I had was at the Rifftrax Live for Doctor Who. I went to the theater in Disney World and it was pack and everyone had a blast watching it there.

I remember the Matrix being pretty great in cinema. Not so much for the crowd reactions but for the slow build in breaking reality and rolling the credits to RaTM. I cant think of a movie having a more viscerally inspiring effect on me.

The Aristocrats was pretty epic in the cinema because the whole thing is meant to be a massive troll on the audience, and having 50 people sitting there obviously thinking :wtf: at every mention of incest and scat humour by their family friendly comedians was hilarious at a meta level.

He's a real piece of poo poo, that's why.

There's an excellent visual joke I'd missed in the office fight scene, where one of the bubble aliens stabs Boomerang in the heart, but a huge wad of money saves his life, bullet-in-bible style.

Seeing The Conjuring with a loud coward in the audience was pretty good too.

Yeah, it' pretty good, I think it was SMG was that pointed out what a bunch of nonsense the whole unicorn thing was, because his true fetish seems to be money. Like, the unicorn is an excuse to be there, because he's just a thief.

Best theater experience I ever had was Pacific Rim Uprising.


Saw it on a Sunday, Valentines I think, during the mid day, for free and literally the entire floor was empty. Everyone else there was watching Ready Player One downstairs.

One kid in my screening for Uprising was just raising his arms in glee every time something happened. I'd catch it in the corner of my eye and smile. At least someone was digging it. Maybe this one is just for the kids. I dunno.

Movie ended, lights came on, and that kid was actually a full grown man.

That does not shock me at all. There wasn't even enough going on to make a kid happy.

Being able to see Up Rising in a theater by myself had to of been one of the most surreal moments of my life. All around me was empty seats, and I could just talk as much as I wanted without anyone to complain. I don't think anyone was even up in the booth.

Only one moment in the movie really made me audibly say "gently caress you" though. The rest of the time the movie was just comically inept and if I had spent ANY money seeing it, that would ahve annoyed me but I didn't, so I wasn't

That one moment though

loving meme poo poo.

Is there a woman in his rogue gallery he hasn't kissed? He's a very lonely violent weirdo, it's surprising he's not better friends with the Penguin or whomever

What I wonder is if the flashbacks on him capturing Deadshot and Harley are post-Superman or not: on one hand he doesn't mess them up with brands or anything extremely vicious, on the other hand he uses Lawton's daughter as a shield and frenches Quinn when he thinks she's unconscious . . .

The Batfleck version would probably still be pretty borderline even after he considers himself redeemed, so it doesn't really matter. I wish they filmed his fight with Croc instead of just narrating it and having a SWAT team tag him. No justice for Croc :argh:

While the movie itself is set post-Beavis (as evidenced by Waller talking about Superman's death, and Wayne asking for the government's files on metahumans at the end). I don't think there's anything that firmly establishes a timeframe for the flashbacks.

Edit:

I'd say the flashbacks probably happen after Beavis as well. Joker killing Robin is one of the things that set Batman off in this universe. He probably would have blown Joker to smithereens if it took place pre-Martha.

I think it's only fondly remembered by boys who saw it when they were 13 and then never matured past that age. I say this as someone who was a 13 year old boy when I saw it and only after trying to rewatch it years later did I wonder what I was thinking.

Never bothered with the second movie though it might make for a fun drunk night watch.

Doesn't matter if it's bad really. Just the fact that it exists and calling it "de-marvelized" is hilarious. The guy who made it is an advocate for the Snyder cut, so it comes off as a bit hypocritical to create and publicly release his own vision of Aquaman because he didn't like Wan's version.

Eh, I wouldn't call Swingers "awesome" anymore--it's full of MRA bullshit and some bits are really pretty gross--but that scene is one of the most cringe-inducing things I've ever seen in a movie and it rings completely true for how awkward I was as a teenager.

The Incredible Hulk is tremendously underrated. Norton is great as Banner, as are Tim Roth and William Hurt and Tim Blake Nelson. Liv Tyler is a bit of a weak spot, but ... that's not surprising. Shame about Norton being so much of a jackwagon that Marvel didn't want to work with him anymore. The college fight scene is still the best action sequence in a Marvel Studios movie.

I'm actually just at the college campus fight, and yes, it is good. I'm remembering now how it was discussed that Blonky's post-serum acrobatics would be how Cap would move in his movie.

This movie isn't as bad as I remember lol. I'm legit enjoying it. This Hulk CG is pretty meh though; not a fan of the design. But I do really like Norton's Banner, way more than Ruffalo's.

[edit] The tone of this movie feels a bit more weighty than usual MCU fare too. There aren't a lot of quips or jokes.

I believe that's one of the reasons Incredible Hulk was made so far ahead of Captain America, because Marvel wanted to have a test run for how to depict the Super Soldier serum on-screen.

There's also a deleted scene in which Cap's shield is seen in the Antarctic (and Banner attempts to kill himself, but the Hulk emerges and literally bites the bullet before it can enter Banner's head).

I remember watching Boondock Saints at around the same time I saw Kung Fu Hustle and I still sometimes conflate the scenes where they free their respective super-assassins. I think they are even called "Beast" in both movies.

The big fight at the end of The Incredible Hulk was as bad as I remember it being. Overall though, yeah, not as crappy as I thought. Good movie, about on par with Captain Marvel for me actually, so I take back saying Captain Marvel was better than this. It's worth at least one re-watch for anyone on the fence about it. Norton was a great Banner. Shame.
