I don't know if even China can save Valerian at this rate...

I am not shocked Valerian is doing bad; I am shocked it is expected to do worse than Ghost in the Shell.

ScarJo is pretty much the difference maker, I guess.

Valerian blows Transformers out of the water. The Last Knight was so bad that even Transformers fans hated it. I saw 5 year olds leaving confused and unimpressed.


I know it's a low bar, it might even be the lowest bar of the year, but Valerian is a better movie than Transformers. Easily.

Prepare to hate John Wick. Maybe one more decent film in the series before the producers overrun everything else.

Atomic Blonde was okay. It wasn't bad by any means, but I enjoyed Baby Driver more. Still need to see Dunkirk.

Dark Tower tonight, though. Hope it's good.

I did not mind Dark Tower. It was not great, kinda mediocre, but I liked Idris Elba and Matthew McConaughey. McC as the Man in Black was quite enjoyably cheesy.

But yeah, there are pacing issues and weird edits. I have not read the books, for what it's worth.

Try to enjoy McConnaughey and Elba, at the very least.

Logan and Get Out are at the top of my list for 2017 so far.


I'm sure there are better movies, but if they don't catch my interest on a trailer I'm not going to give em a chance.

I watched the Ghost in the Shell movie that nobody in the world saw. It wasn't really bad. The twist is dumb as gently caress but the production design is good and Takeshi Kitano owns in literally anything he's in so that's good.

See, I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels that way.

My thing was: I really the GitS TV series, and I think the franchise has some interesting ideas that a movie could explore with the right script behind it. That said, I set the bar all the way to the floor with the ScarJo movie, because I've no reason to think Hollywood is interested in putting out a movie that....uh, thinks.



With the bar set to the bottom, the Ghost in the Shell movie impressed me. Damning with faint praise? Absolutely. But it must be said anyway. I expected so much worse.

I don't think it was a bad movie, it was just unappealing to me in mostly every way.

And that's a totally fair criticism. In my case, all the haters I knew personally were just die hard anime purists. Not the best critics to butt heads with.

Ripping on Bill Murray for not wanting to rehash a comedy again isn't really cool. There was no need for another GB after the first. Be happy he even made the second one. Complaining about no third film is just stupid.

Counterpoint: Bill Murray hasn't been worth a poo poo for nearly thirty years.

For people who say CD is terrible, you guys sure seem to have detailed knowledge about CD posts and posters. Have you considered just not going there?

I only see that which pops up in here. Nice try though.

If anything about Firefly upsets me is that its failure meant taking another goofy sci-fi adventure show away from me.
