    Poor guys in a LOT of shitty movies. Bless him he normally does his best though. His Deadpool was the highlight of a very bad movie and you know it was all him because reading his lines they suck pretty hard.

    I hope they keep Loki an interesting character in this movie

    him and high production values were basically all that kept Thor a good movie instead of having it slide into a mediocre movie.

    thor had a terrible script

    as a narrative it was really poorly constructed

    This summer, the Aliens are just “and” the Cowboys. When Grant Morrison and Barry Sonnenfeld are ready to unleash their genre-blender mash-up, however, the Aliens will most definitely be “versus” the Dinosaurs.

    Dominion: Dinosaurs Versus Aliens is set to premiere as a “graphic novel” from Liquid Comics later this year, also written by Morrison and illustrated by Mukesh Singh. The story line will apparently recount a prehistoric battle between Earth’s thunder lizards and an invasion of extra terrestrials. So can we assume that this film won’t even have any dialogue in it? That it’s just going to be flat-out visual storytelling and/or dinosaurs and aliens getting down to it in a series of massive set pieces?

    looks like it was a joint effort

    That sounds so dumb ugh god damn it Morrison.

  • BlankZoeBlankZoe Registered User regular
    Fuck that

    I will happily pay money to watch Aliens and Dinosaurs kick the shit out of each other for two hours as presented by the man who directed Men in Black, Pushing Daises and Wild Wild West.

    but how could that be anything other than a cgi fireworks display

    is there some sort of shocking morrisonian twist where it turns out they are all inside a book

    You act like Morrison doesn't enjoy doing fun bombastic shit for the sake of fun bombastic shit

    the dude loves a good silly fight scene

    the structure was weird, with multiple plots

    it was less an iron man movie and more an ensemble movie

    it wasnt BAD, it just wasnt as good as Iron Man, it had to set up plot points for Avengers

    Two things:

    1) Iron Man 2 was not better than Iron Man 1

    2) One of those movies has to be on the bottom of the list

    Iron Man 2 has internet whiplash syndrome

    people loved it when it was released

    then everyone decided it was awful

    I think it's a fun summer action movie that didn't live up to the original, but was still well worth the money I paid to watch it in theaters.

  • nightmarennynightmarenny Registered User regular
    Uh no everyone I talked to didn't like it when it came out. And by "didn't like it" I mean it wasn't as good as 1.

    it was mostly tony trying to solve his poisoning thing

    war machine didn't get that much screen time

    I guess there was a good amount of time spent on whiplash and hammer

    but not so much that it wasn't pretty clearly stark's film

  • Cilla BlackCilla Black Priscilla!!! Registered User regular
    yes well "didn't like it" is a lot different than it not being as good as 1

    it seems to be a thing lots of people confuse

    as if a sequel can't be good unless it's better than the original

    there was quite a bit of shield, plus the whiplash revenge, and hammer, and pepper trying to lead the company

  • BlankZoeBlankZoe Registered User regular
    I have heard a lot of people complain about Hammer being useless

    but I loved it

    the dude was trying to be Tony Stark so much but no one can be Tony Stark

    I see what you're getting at

    definitely wouldn't call it an ensemble film though

    The Villain was wasted. Which is a shame since they got a great actor. He gives a little speech near the beginning about how by wounding Ironman as he did he would remind people that he wasn't perfect or immortal and then the things that bring him down end up having nothing to do with Whiplashes attack.

    The movie had an unusual structure which isn't necessarily bad but ended up giving the movie an uneven and disjointed feel.

    The entire "Stark is Dying" plot was stupid. The fact that it happened, the way he reacted to it and the way he solved it.

    And I don't think everyone agrees with me here but fuck scarlett johansson. She was neither a convincing secretary or spy and it isn't her fault but her fight seen was hard to watch for how silly it was.

    No I think we're pretty much all on the same page there.

    We'd all like to, I mean.

    I think they went a little to far about it. Like the Ex-wife crossed a line for me.

    TLB had a really interesting position of IM2. Its like an ensemble movie with no main plot but instead of each sub-plot revolving around a different character they all revolve around Stark.

    I did not enjoy the poisoning sub plot.

    Especially how it ended up with, roger stirling had the answer all along!

    It detracted from the movie.

    That and giving pepper control of the company.

    There were however a lot of fun scenes in iron man 2 to be fair.

    Just that it's problems to me really sunk it's quality.

    Also happy's fight scene was dumb.

    Emily Blunt was Favreau's original choice for Black Widow

    Goddamnit

  • LanglyLangly Registered User regular
    Iron man 2 is at the bottom of my list because one of those movies has to be, and while I really enjoyed it, it did not completely live up to the original.

  • LanglyLangly Registered User regular
    Also yes I do not like scarlet johansson
