Hawkingbird Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 I watched Wick 4 Spoiler The scene that the camera goes overhead with John using explosive shotgun rounds was literally hotline Miami. Fucking loved it BornWinner, OPTIMUS124 and DangerousJ 3 Quote Link to comment

OPTIMUS124 Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 John Wick 4 is escalation at it's finest. the movie deserves an honest shot for awards related to cinematography and stuntwork. Somehow the fourth movie about an assassin who went on a killing spree because someone stole his car and killed his dog still slaps. The way that things conclude, I do hope that this rounds everything out. Solid recommend. J-ride, Jurassic, NinetiesArcades and 4 others 6 1 Quote Link to comment
Psychoblue Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 If they're correcting one of the more obvious red flags from the Netflix script they clearly got ideas from, then maybe they can make lemonades out of those rotten lemons yet. Sequel though? Yuck Hecatom 1 Quote Link to comment
HD-Man Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 (edited) Saw John Wick 4 today, shit was superb. My favorite scene is probably the part where he gets a certain new gun and starts lighting mfers up. Kinda reminded me of Hotline Miami the way they shot it Spoiler Also, John died. They announced part 5 so I thought he'd definitely live. 😭 But they never showed a body so I suppose they could do another Edited March 27, 2023 by HD-Man Hawkingbird and OPTIMUS124 2 Quote Link to comment
axeman61 Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 JW4 was great. I think I like 3 better, but still. And also Spoiler You can't have John Wick without John Wick. He's not dead; he's off living a new life or something. Something will bring him back, or he'll teach someone new. Hecatom 1 Quote Link to comment

HD-Man Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Also, blew my mind to find out Scott Adkins was the fat guy in John Wick 4 cuz aint no way the average fat dude moving like that.

Hecatom Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 (edited) Just came to watch John Wick 4. What a great action movie. Imo is a must watch for the action alone, but I would also add the cinematography cuz there are so many beautiful shots and scene compositions here. Edit BTW. For some reason the movie was rate 12+ in my country, lol. Edited March 29, 2023 by Hecatom DangerousJ and RSG3 2 Quote Link to comment
Jion_Wansu Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Went to watch D&D. Didn't have any expectations and with open mind, etc. I liked it! Next Friday I'll watch Mario too with the same mindset. DangerousJ 1 Quote Link to comment
DangerousJ Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 I just saw John Wick 4. Pros: Cinematography Action esp the top down sequence and the fight with the German fat guy Ending Cons I was underwhelmed by the tracker /Mr. Nobody. We see some dog action with Sofia in 3, and I was expecting something different character wise than him just upping the price on the Marquis Misc: Lance Reddick x 2!

J-ride Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 I saw the Mario Movie, there were a ton of easter eggs including: Spoiler Charles Martinet (N64 Mario voice) playing a character who looked like Bob Hoskins Mario The voice acting of Bowser (Jack Black) and Luigi (Charlie Day) were TOP TIER. I felt kind of neutral about Chris Pratt. After watching the movie it seemed fine. Probably 1.5 hours of Martinet going WAAHOO would have probably sounded ridiculous, so I thought he was fine overall. It was pretty standard fair as far as movies go, I'd say it was at least as good as the Sonic Movie and since the whole thing was animated the movie had some pretty impressive use of colors and Nintendo properties. There are a RIDICULOUS amount of Easter Eggs in the movie. RSG3, NinetiesArcades, Darc_Requiem and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment

I felt the same about Tony Jaa in MonHun, if not for him the movie would have been significantly worse than it already was. Also I just got my tickets to see it May 13th. I wonder if it'll be a "private" showing like the one time I went to see Terminator Genisys. Quote Link to comment
Wellman Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 Netflix DVD sent me a email saying they are shutting down in September. I honestly have forgotten I was still signed up for that.

Psychoblue Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 (edited) I'm seeing a lot of 7/10 and 8/10, saying that the cast did their best with what they had to work with and that Ikki (called Nero now because multiethnic retcon), Seiya, and Marin were highlights followed by Famke deciding to put some effort into her villain spot. Although to be fair, being Ikki's actor is Mexican, if he didn't tear the house down, he probably would have had his citizenship revoked LOL Edited April 28, 2023 by Psychoblue Quote Link to comment

Psychoblue Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Okie dokie, the reviews I expected for KotZ ("It sucks!") are finally starting to pour in. Had me worried that somehow they made something good. Heard it's flopping big time at the box office, as well. Being that the first run of showings were in Japan and LATAM, if they tank there it's a safe bet they're going to tank everywhere other than than maybe China. Quote Link to comment
Lantis Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 What annoys me the most are all the fanboys trying to desperately salvage this movie by saying it's a "different take on the series" and to "go without expectations" as if they're seeing this as the last chance SS will ever become relevant in the mainstream again. Well guess what, DB Evolution was also a "different take" and I also went "without expectations" and it was still a massive pile of shit. I don't think it has even be announced over here but I guess I'll just catch it whenever it comes out on streaming Psychoblue and Hawkingbird 2 Quote Link to comment
RSG3 Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 If I'm supposed to go in with no expectations then why is it a Saint Saya Movie? They are making it because it's an established franchise after all. BornWinner, Lantis and Psychoblue 3 Quote Link to comment

Lantis Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 Yeah I think it's safe to say that the Saint Seiya movie is a total bust. The critics have crushed it, the box office returns have been pretty dismal (even in Latin America and Asia which were supposed to be the "strong" markets for this movie), and I just watched a clip of the battle between Phoenix and Pegasus and....wow...the CGI must have been on a shoestring budget because that was fuckin awful. And of course there is the toxic SS fanbase who chastise the haters because they are "not supporting the franchise". Like nah bro, it's OK to shun them off if they're giving me shit. If this is the future of the franchise, might as well take it to back of the toolshed and put it out of its' misery RSG3, Hawkingbird and Psychoblue 3 Quote Link to comment
Jion_Wansu Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 If they decide to make another Tekken live action movie that's true to the game and it's not Hollywoodised or something then she can play Kazumi Mishima! Quote Link to comment

OPTIMUS124 Posted May 29, 2023 Share Posted May 29, 2023 Watched "The Little Mermaid" with my wife this weekend. This is one of the better remakes that Disney has done. Halle Bailey earned the role and does well throughout the film. While it starts as a 1:1 remake, it slowly introduces changes that make a difference. This one feels like they honestly gave a damn and went beyond "how much money can we print"? From the vibrancy of the colors, the casting in the film and the new additions, this one is solid all the way around. Not a movie that I'd rush to see, but if you want to check it out, it won't disappoint you. RSG3, Chadouken, KimuraLOX and 2 others 3 2 Quote Link to comment

Lantis Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 Yep, it does seem to teeter into the "it's OK" territory Although the Maximals not being a central focus point of the movie kinda throws me off a bit Also no T-Rex Megatron and/or Dinobot?

I also saw the movie tonight. Absolutely think this is the "good not great" variety.. Nothing really interesting happens and it's pretty much paint by the numbers. However, they fill the lines with all the right colors. It's worth checking out. Also Mirage is great. 7/8 out of 10.
