"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Dear filmmakers, movie named Godzilla, not Ford "Forrest Gump" Brody's Incredibly Monster-centric World Tour.

I was well entertained whenever the camera focused on the title character. Unfortunately, it seemed as if the other hundred minutes or so the director thought it would be more interesting to pan away and concentrate on Aaron Taylor-Johnson's flat affect and amazing ability to survive being repeatedly almost stepped on instead.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I saw X-Men: DOFP past today. Loved it, but I need two things explained to me.

How does Magneto control the robots when it was said earlier that they don't have any metal in them ?

And explain the post credit scene to me.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Magneto went on the train that was carrying the Sentinels and basically infused them with metal.

And the post-credit scene refers to the next movie, which it looks like will be Apocalypse. He's a long-time adversary in the comics.

Thanks, Dana.

XM:DoFP

Last scene with Logan so I saw he was in Stryker's custody, and went, "Fuuuck!", then saw it was Mystique and it changed to "WTF?"

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

So regarding that last scene - I guess in the New!Future, he doesn't have an adamantium skeleton?

That's at least part of what I was wondering.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Matt, I just saw it and completely agree that there was not enough monster and far too much human in Godzilla.

Kinda disappointed.

Next weekend will be my chance to see XMen: DOFP. I hope it's better.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Just came back from seeing The Immigrant, which completely knocked my socks off. Marion Cotillard's face, I can't even.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Godzilla -- surprised by an early death. At least I didn't get spoiled for it.

From now on, if Bryan Cranston has an on-screen son, I'm referring to him as Malcolm, no matter what he's actually called.
