DrVenkman posted:It also explains why Logan is trying to get them a boat. He wants to keep them isolated. Agreed. Logan owned and I hope it signals an evolution of "superhero" films. Even if it doesn't, it's an incredible film.

A quasi-subtle point I liked: Logan hates flying or, one would guess, sailing over large bodies of water because if he falls in he'll sink like a boulder and be stuck in a never-ending cycle of drowning and coming back (or just flat drowning and dying). But by this time he's fine with living on the ocean for the rest of his days with Charles, because if he falls in and drowns he doesn't loving care anymore.

General Dog posted:It's just such a breath of fresh air to have a superhero movie that does its own thing- isn't an origin story, doesn't have to lean on existing continuity or set things up for future installments. It serves no masters except telling a compelling story. If it does well, I hope that's the lesson studios take from it, not that the movies need to have more titties, and blood, and cusses. (Spoiler: they will take the wrong lessons) Hey guess what, you're totally right on that account, since Todd McFarlane has once again renewed his pledge to make an R-rated Spawn film.

BravestOfTheLamps posted:Her primal screams was the most unsettling part of the movie, certainly more so than the action. Which is why walking back from her being a feral child was such a weird choice. BravestOfTheLamps posted:I watched John Wick, and it was a great counterpoint in how effectively it used action choreography to a certain effect. It was so restrained and professionally deliberate that it quickly becomes sickening how coolly the hero offs countless people, making it both exciting and repulsive. Logan's fight choreography is unremarkable, and doesn't evoke the animalistic motifs the characters embody. X-23's Caerbannogian jumps and flips are the obvious exception to that. When Logan returns in top form on a berserker rampage, what changes is that he runs a lot and jumps once. I agree, the fight choreography in Logan was unremarkable, except for the times it was remarkable. Well said.

Actually Man of Steel was loving boring and stupid and an insult to any fan of Superman beyond whatever shallow appeal he has to manchildren with pathetic power fantasies.
