James Gunn made dumb edgelord jokes ten years ago. Not only were they public this whole time, but his entire early career was literally based on this. He loving wrote Tromeo and Juliet for Christ's sake. This whole thing is bullshit and has made my interest level in GotG go to zero.

BexGu posted:In the AvP novels from back in the 90s the whole reason they have hunts was to keep the males occupied while the females ran society. Its was literal something to keep the frat boys of Predator society something to do and off planet. The women kicking the men off the planet to actually get poo poo done while they're off wagging their dicks at aliens is pretty great.

You mean the alien who we tortured for years going home to tell all his alien buds about us who are surely going to come wipe out humanity, and everyone being happy about it? That ending?

Not that I don't believe it's all bullshit but both sides did crazy, stupid poo poo during the cold war and nothing is coming up when I search Google for it being bullshit.

HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:I'd like to remind people that some of the hilarious complaints about Prometheus were: A billionaire seeking immortality was unrealistic, corporations were by definition rationally motivated, private space travel is for the benefit of all and not an ego stroke. These are dumb complaints. But the man who's entire job it is to map the place gets scared and forgets he has a map literally on his wrist, but then they tell him to go look at some creepy poo poo and he remembers and does it. Instead of saying "no I'm loving terrified to the point I literally forgot I am the map man, go gently caress yourself, I'm leaving this scary ruin," which is just bad, inconsistent writing. Prometheus is ok until you think about it for five minutes. Covenant side steps being dumb but still lands in the just kinda boring camp. Anyway, in Jason X there's a holodeck of what people in the future think the eighties were and Jason beats a girl in a sleeping bag to death with another girl in a sleeping bag. It's a masterpiece.

CelticPredator posted:So? They’re still r rated comic book movies that are super violent and did well. Also War Zone is a really bad example of a movie being "true to the comics." Regardless of how much you enjoy it, it's a very, very bad adaptation of the source material that's self parody at best.

Here's a character from Kitchen Irish but he's nothing like that character and does parkour for no reason and gets hit by a rocket cause lol random. The movie is like Crank but for stupid people.

I even tried giving it another shot after the last time it came up in one of these threads and while I didn't hate it as much, other than it being very well shot, I still thought it was an incredibly bad movie. The Lundgren Punisher was even better in my opinion.

There's a difference between a cover and am entire movie. There's also a difference between the kind of humor in Ennis run, for example, than what War Zone did. I'm not anti-humor in Punisher. I just don't think War Zone was funny. Even it's decent ideas it executed insanely poorly. The scene in the Lundgren movie where there's a bunch of ninjas all posing with their katanas and he just mows them all down with a machine gun is a better version of the parkour garbage from War Zone, for example.

Wheat Loaf posted:I think Hollywood's more or less over shared cinematic universes now, aren't they? WB seems to have more or less abandoned the idea for the DC movies (though it's hard to tell with them), Lucasfilm's cancelled all their Star Wars spin-offs, Dark Universe was DOA; I think the only one left is the Godzilla vs Kong one and that's still just two movies that are barely connected to one another. There's still a bunch of Star Wars stuff happening.

Wheat Loaf posted:I never watched the series that came from it. My understanding was that it more or less abandoned the "grounded" aesthetic from the original short and went with the supernatural stuff from the games, i.e. Shang Tsung was an other-dimensional warlord rather than a corrupt businessman who funded unsanctioned underground MMA matches. Yeah it was just a low budget adaptation of the games.
