Mal ,'Serenity'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
I need to see it again to get all the dialog I missed because of the audience reactions.
Yeah, we missed the next minute or so of dialogue after Rocket revealed he was fucking with Quill about needing the leg because the whole audience was laughing so hard.
I spent most of the movie thinking "This is fun, but only on a surface level for me," but then I thought they nailed the ending and the found family thing.
I went with IMAX 3D, and I think that was a good call. More for the IMAX than the 3D.
Loved it. Very pleased.
Yeah, we missed the next minute or so of dialogue
Totally. And, during the prison fight and at The Collector's and roughly 1/3 of the whole dang movie. So much laughing and shouting.
Most of Peter Quill being an unlikeable smartass was in them, so that character was a lot easier to sympathize with in the film as a whole.
Absolutely this, too. I expected to be rolling my eyes at the lead throughout, but ended up finding that character completely charming.
In future installments, I hope Gamora is given more dialog beyond rolling her eyes at pretty much everyone.
And, with all due respect to Amy Pond fans, I felt like Karen Gillan proved again that she can't really act her way out of a wet paper bag. She didn't have much to work with, of course, but still. On the other hand, her paint job was beautiful.
Which would you rate as your top 3? And which as the worst?
For me, it's 5, 1, 6, and the second Thor as the worst.
Which Incredible Hulk is that? Norton?
I still haven't seen Iron Man 3, so I'm DQed I think.
I think the Norton Hulk is considered continuity for this go round. I haven't seen it, but I voted anyway.
Oh, okay. This is hard. Let's see, top three: 9,6,10. It's possible that recency of viewing affects my judgement more than it should, but I'll own that. Worst: Iron Man 2. That was pretty bad.
Iron Man 3 was atrocious. I have not seen Iron Man 2 so I am startled to hear that it is worse than IM3.
I liked Iron Man 3.
