Sam's Thread of Movie Lists and Chit Chat (w/Jake)

Gunn had actually deleted most of the stuff that was released today, it was just dug up an angry alt right media member who admitted he released the tweets because he was angry that Gunn was so outspoken against Trump.

For the record, the guy, Mike Cernovich, is no saint on social media himself.

Shit, I haven't talked to you in a hot minute man.

And yeah, Aziz Gambino is where its at.

I'm interested in Shazam. I'll see Aquaman and Godzilla out of my commitment to always remain part of the zeitgeist. Mind you, I still haven't watched Justice League.

I can't wait until you turn 27 and realize the zeitgeist isn't worth the pain you inflict on yourself to be a part of it.

See you next week big guy

Idc how bad Aquaman is, but once I seen guys riding sharks I was sold.

Also, in the Godzilla trailer when I seen Rodan flying over the city and the dust and debris we're following him, I was sold. The monsters in this universe are a lot larger than in the Toho days.

Shazam was the one where I was like; meh. I mean it looks like Big but with superpowers.

[Uncle Sam]

Right? Like, how cool is that?

Maybe he'll bang a woman in her thirties.

You know, despite not really liking any Mission Impossible films, except for maybe that one with Phillip Seymour Hoffman in, I'm feeling optimistic about Fallout.

In other news, the 2011 The Thing is not very good. It even attempts to resolve the ending of the Carpenter movie by the backdoor. Bastards.

SPECTRE was probably the worst movie in the official Eon James Bond franchise. Yeah, probably worse than Die Another Day.

Spectre was the biggest waste of a Bond movie since Live and let die. Live and let die is so bad I'm surprised the franchise didn't just keel over and fuckin die right there.

I'might not sure what they were chasing but Fallout is fun.

LALD made a lot of money. I don't think any movie until Skyfall in the series made as much money as it did.

But I really want to like LALD, but it's just too low-stakes and there's too much stupid stuff. I love Roger Moore as Bond, the stunt work is amazing and Yaphet Kotto, Julius Harris and Geoffrey Holder put on memorable performances, but other than that...it's pretty dumb. The boat chase is where the movie really starts to fall apart as it becomes more focused on an unfunny, tryhard southern stereotype than actually focusing on Bond.

[Spidey]

low stakes my ass he fought a god

I have a soft spot for LALD. It's like Bond had a fever dream about whatever he knew about black people in America's South. Not at all the worst of the franchise.
