colby smulders lost the right to her name after she did 4 seasons of “how i met your mother”. she should forever be known as Robin Scherbatsky aka they sacrificed phil coulson for this bitch??
whats funny to me is their gonna have to start writing these movies really like comics. continuity issues abound, like are they gonna do everyones sequal again before we get a avengers 2? cause if i was marvel id put avengers 2 as a priority before the other sequals right now.
and what happens when an actor feels he needs to move on before being type casted…is a 6 picture deal a good enough incentive? actors are real weird, some are all bout the millions but others will give that up for the art of acting.
Civil War was such a good long story, and then WHAM. It just fucking ends, and everybody basically becomes a bitch. Left me with a bad taste in my mouth
IM3 next, then Thor 2, then Cap 2, then Avengers 2 was the plan. Dunno how the 6 movie Ruffalo deal will change that though.
King9999 and Rabbit make me want to go back to my RPG Maker community days. I don’t have the time to build a game from scratch, so I’d probably just use the RPG Maker XP engine to make something small. Some people have made some interesting shit with that thing, I remember.
ugh. cap 2 was not that special imo. but i guess you just need to give him a movie at this point. i feel like cap was the weakest movie out all of em. nothing really special that clicked wit me personally.
I felt that the first Captain America was too much a setup of the Avengers. Most of his fights were either in montages, shown on a screen in the movie, or off camera. I look forward to the next movie, dealing with him (and the Red Skull) getting used to modern days.
In Avengers, he seems to just run from point A to point B, and smack things with his shield. I think the cuts to the movie hurt him. Compared to everybody else, he never really had a cool moment.
[details=Spoiler]Iron Man saves him during the Loki fight, modern day technology fubar’s him, he was pretty useless during the entire siege on the hellicarrier. The only thing that really was all him, was when he tells the cops what to do, and later on saves that room full of people. But even then, those action moments were so meh.
You get a BRIEF glimpse of him bouncing from dude to dude, fucking shit up, when Ironman flies in and reflects unibeam off Caps shield, but that was literally it
sheeeeit, I might need to get some Secret Circle recorded for the sake of preserving the ridiculous hotness… because the ratings info I just looked up on that show = TERRIBLE. There’s no way that shit will get a new season. People really need to check out Shelly Hennig (“Diana”) and the other girls from that show before it’s gone…anything from episode 2 onward, preferably. For some reason they weren’t that hot in the first episode, but they all evolved to super-hot status from that second episode going forward…it’s not often you see a transformation that significant (*“Melissa” didn’t look that great at all on episode 1… episode 2 onward = one of the sexiest girls on television! The difference still amazes me.). CW’s ratings in general aren’t good…that shouldn’t really surprise me, but at least my precious Vampire Diaries and Supernatural are safe for now…though it’s still tough for Supernatural to top that season where Lucifer was unleashed on the world and they had to stop Armageddon… that really should’ve been the final season right there. If they left it with that, it would’ve been the greatest series finale ever.
…oh yeah, and L.A. Complex has had a rough start as well. Even Nikita isn’t doing so well anymore… so I’ll have to look at that more often now before it goes away. Nikita puts the delicious Melinda Clarke on my tv screen… any show that does that is alright with me.
yeah, that image stuck out in my mind and i decided to display it to show that i’m not just using Black Widow as my only example. i know Tifa was recovering because i own the movie (no thanks to Shin-Mech-Brian). she lands against the wall , then the flower petals fly all over the place, then they do a close up on her stupid looking CG face while flower petals are floating around in slow motion. the point is that they stop the action to give a character time to look cool, and that’s what annoys me.
I don’t get watching shows just to ogle the girls. Just go to the mall or something. They probably even have a Taco Bell. And all the jailbait you guys
could ever want.
Yeah, there was the dumb sniping of Cap, but the dumber thing was Cap about to deal the victory blow to Iron Man and getting stopped by the Heroes of 9/11. So lame.
(Ugh. This blasted computer. I really need to replace it.)
Going to have still catch up on SRK a bit later, though I saw Stabby’s post and I’m guessing the new Clu 2’s post
@Clu 2: Hmm…I don’t ever remember fighting you with my shitty Frank, especially since I only really started screwing around him (and Thor and Arthur) lazily–well, extra lazily for me–in the past couple of months. Thanks, I guess.
@Stabby: Ah, I see. Yeah, I concur. The ones that target humans “just because” (read: prefer humans for seemingly illogical reasons, like that giant steel wasp) are pretty dumb are most of the humans or ones that can’t be killed. The only “human” ones I remember liking are “Vector” and that poor kid who healed people but took on their maladies; I guess the dimensional teleporter is also decent, if really iffy. Even then, “Vector” should be a classified as a world-ending threat considering the diseases she could make and yet they treat her with kid gloves/nicer than many of the other, less haughty humanoids who have far less dangerous powers.
By “the train”, I’m guessing you mean the “Ticket to Ride”? Yeah, that one’s still one of the best ones IMO. It’s up there with the Ghost Ship and that mirror-crossing-dimensional one.
This is why everyone ultimately hates The Matrix: as good the first movie actually was, it’s almost solely to blame for slow-motion being obnoxiously overused.
