Terminator: Genysis / theater
--I liked it. I liked that they addressed some of the time travel issues. The odes/allusions/foreshadowing/homages to Terminator and Terminator 2 were quite interesting. Also the interactions amongst pasts/futures of parts of the core story participants was well done. FWIW, I got a free poster and "Terminator" model bar code as freebies for going today.

--My favorite of the prequel trilogy.
This is the only Star Wars movie I've seen only one time and never had any desire to watch it again.

Of course not, just happened to give them a second chance, though I turned off the third one half way through the second time.

Why gdunn?
RE: The movie thread - gdunn - 07-09-2015 09:36 PM
Honestly I thought the acting wasn't all that good, the plot was thrown together, and then there's a very awkward scene. I've been about the only person that's felt that way. It's not one I could watch again.

Checked out Ant Man..
I didn't think Paul Rudd would be Marvel Super Hero material. I was wrong. It was a good movie. If they do a sequel it's open for that, they tied him to the Avengers so there's that, and they made mention of our Web slinging friend.

Flight / TV
--Pretty good and intense IMO. The while intoxicated pilot but saved the ship.... lawyers trying to save his career ect.... really cool movie.
Sherlock Holmes Game of Shadows/ BR
--Love the movie...
G.I. Joe The Rise of Cobra/ BR
--Decent live action movie but I didn't like how they put Cobra Commander out there.
G.I Joe Retaliation / BR
--Better follow up overall than the original.
G.I.Joe The MASS Device / dvd
--Nothing like old school animated GI Joe
Men In Black II / NetFlix
--NOT as good as the first but not overly bad.
Hannibal Rising / dvd
--Good intro to Hannibal Lecter and how he got to be the way he is.
Silence of the Lambs / BR
--A great movie IMO.
Wild Things / dvd
--Heh... yeah...
Showgirls/ Net Flix
-- ....
Karate Kid / tv
--the new one with Jackie Chan and and Will Smith's kid. Not bad for what it was.
Blade II / dvd
--Probably one of the most bad ass movies ever made.
RE: The movie thread - gdunn - 07-20-2015 08:46 AM
I watched Joe Dirt 2: Beautiful Loser courtesy of Crackle.
I wasn't impressed. They tried to play off the jokes from the original and it looked like it was a direct to DVD movie.

Saw Ant Man today...its pretty legit. I don't know enough about who is Ant Man to say that is/isn't legit but I liked the story line set up. I liked the action and the humor. That kids train set scene still kills me...

I saw it over the weekend with my 15 year old son. I enjoyed it because it was a little lighter fare than the Marvel movies have been of late. I liked Michael Douglas as Dr. Pym and Evangeline Lily is always nice to look at. Didn't care for the Mexican guy who was a bit too cartoonish IMO.
RE: The movie thread - gdunn - 07-21-2015 02:37 PM
Yea but I feel like you kinda needed that.
Like I said when I heard Paul Rudd was going to be a hero in the MCU I was very apprehensive.. I was pleasantly surprised and he did an excellent job.
RE: The movie thread - BlazerJoe - 07-21-2015 07:22 PM
Saw Ant-Man today; I had a lot of fun with it.

The Hunger Games/BR
The Hunger Games: Catching Fire/BR
The Hunger Games: Mickingjay Pt. 1/BR
--Pretty good series IMO. Can't wait for Part 2.
Goldmember/BR
--I loved the Austin Powers movies, really wish he'd do a 4th, the Scot Evil cliffhanger must be resolved.
Arrow/NF
--I heard the tv show was pretty legit so I checked it out last night...binge watched S1E1-E8. Not bad... I kind of dig it. But, IMO, he seems like a Batman Remix for what they have shown on his backstory so far.
Mission Impossible I, II, III, and IV/Ghost Protocol / BR
--BR prints in I and II are kind of suspect IMO, especially sections of II. I like each one for different reasons.
Mission Impossible: Rouge Nation/Theater
--This movie, along with the first one feel the most like the Mission Impossible tv show in terms if plot and intrigue. I really liked how deep the rabbit hole went in this new one.
Expendables 2/BR
--I liked it and I liked JCVD as a villain.

That continues. It's a decent show but you just have to get used to the idea that they're running Arrow through stuff that you've already seen with Batman.
ETA: If you're going to watch Arrow you might as well start watching The Flash. They overlap the story lines a bit.

Agreed.
Arrow was decent in the beginning, but it got really great later on. Some people say it took a step back in Season 3, but I respectfully disagree. This is basically Batman for the CW crowd, and I'm here for it.

His back story set up sounds a lot like Batman in some ways. Vigilante angle. Parental death. Hide to protect the ones they love. From the super rich. Not fans of guns. Had off-shore bad ass training...
