    Perfectly the worst. It's really, really compelling how little like Nixon or Elvis those two are. Hell, it'd be closer to "right" if they swapped roles. But by being "right," it wouldn't be as interesting to me as it currently is.

    What a strange little movie that looks to be.

    Like "The Beatles" in Walk Hard.

    But that's the best possible casting

    Say what you will about the CGI madness

    The actual climactic fistfight between Cap and Bucky was real good

    Quality is a circular scale, and there's practically no distance between absolute best and absolute worst.

    Okay the rest of the casting is equally bizarre

    Evan Peters is playing this guy

    And Alex Pettyfer is gonna be this one

    I posit that it would've been more emotionally resonant had it been the focus, instead of just One of Six Things Happening

    For the record I love the big CGI clusterfucks at the end of the Avengers movies

    It fits there, somehow

    I posit that cost-effective photorealistic CGI animation will eventually oust traditional filmmaking.

    Michael Shannon and Kevin Spacey are who I'd get to play those two in a Drunk History segment, if Jack Black and Bob Odenkirk hadn't already done it perfectly

    Man, I want to see the movie where they first used squibs, and the movie where people started complaining about too many squibs.

    Always confused by the people who seem to get emotionally invested in whether or not a millionaire they will never meet gets a little gold statue

    Glad to see somebeardy's calling it like it is



    My sister tried watching The Revenant, and said that there were enough Indians dying that she had to turn off. Which means I'm definitely gonna skip this one, yeah.

    I was under the impression that cgi is often more expensive than practical. It just tends to require less planning and on set filming.

    Or maybe it was that it *should* be more expensive given that rough state financial situation of folks doing the cgi.

    This is how I read this quote and I was really confused.

    can you feel the struggle within?
