Ice Age: Collision Course (2016)

A comedy with all the laughs of a Russian novel (and despite the 90 minute run time seems as long.)  This one has Scrat still searching for his acorn through the deepest reaches of space while playing havoc with the ice age world.  The gang reunites and goes on a zany adventure to save their world and we all learn a valuable lesson at the end.  This was so dull and so bad that I find myself now in favor of global warming.
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

Liep

Superman v Batman. They said it was horrible. They were right. The dialogue was cheesy, the fighting scenes either ridiculous or poorly choreographed, Superman is still boring, the director still loves wanton destruction. 3 hours. 3 HOURS! And it was never fun.

Wonder Woman is hot though, Jeremy Irons did a good Alfred.

Will there be more colour in the spin off movies? I hope so because it sure as shit is dreary to look at.

They remake everything. Also, pop culture reference of Britain fall flat in the USA.

I used to watch it with my grandmother as a kid. It was funny.

Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.

This is the weirder thing for me. Americans watching Brit shows that haven't been on TV here for thirty years, see also Bunny Hill which I've literally never seen because it happened in the 70s.

Also the rebuke to Tyr is the American Office :wub:
