Re: The Movie Thread
Okay, just got back from Amazing Spider-Man 2. I liked it.
I won't lie, it's a bit of a cliche movie. I kind of want to take off some points for some obvious heartstring-pull moments that don't all hit the mark, but I have to say - there was one moment right at the end of the movie that had me tearing up despite how corny. It involved a kid, and I love kids, so it could just be me being a sucker for that sort of thing.
I think they kind of botched Electro - Jamie does a good job with him after he gets powers, but before he comes off as this really weird caricature that doesn't quite work. I think Harry Osborn worked well - his motivation is pretty much not to die from this disease he learns about early on, which is fairly understandable, and most of efforts, while jerkish, makes enough sense.
Anyway, had some good action scenes, Andrew and Emma do a good job selling the romance, and while I think a lot of it felt like setup for Amazing Spider-Man 3, it held up on its own. I had a good time.
And I still say it's better than the first trilogy. " title="cookie" />

Yeah, I am SO looking forward to that one. I think Mothra's in it, too!

I hope they don't make a piece of shit like the one with Mathew Loser Broderick was.

I think that's pretty much impossible. The presence of Bryan Cranston alone ensures that it will be better than that Godzilla.

If researching politics has taught me anything: it is that there is always more shit and it is always worse.

Eh, I guess. I really want to be optimistic about this one, though. I was a big Godzilla fan when I was younger, the possibility of him coming back like this is just a dream come true. First Pacific Rim and now this...

If Godzilla ends up being less then amazing, I will never let any of you hear the end of it.
My rage will be the rage that ends the Earth.
