Re-watched Thor on the telly. I find it really fun, I usually groan at fish out of the water stories, but the comedic bits in this one are far better than the epic/action ones. Pity the sequel was so godawful.

I hear they hired the dudes that wrote this one for Star Trek 3, so there's some hope. They also wrote X-Men First Class which is my favorite film with Marvel characters.

There are indeed two or three great comedic moments in the first Thor movie. And it has Kat Dennings which is always a huge plus.  :lol:

I just love the boastful viking persona of Thor when he arrives on Earth. And I agree about Kat Dennings; she should get more work  :(

You could give her some. :p

:lol:

There's too many hotties out there, I need to write more.

On our way back from Senoia GA, where The Walking Dead and many films are/have been filmed  (that sounds funny). Very nice town. We bumped into Rutledge too,  from Top Gear, cool guy.
Grand Duke of Lurkdom

Scipio

Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit.

This movie just reeks of lost opportunity. Great cast, decent script, good director, great DP. What we get are individual great performances, trapped by shitty camera work, unfocused directing, and uninspired editing to render a muddy, visually stilted film that fails to take advantage of three of the most physically expressive actors working today: Chris Pine, Keira Knightley, and Kenneth Branagh.

When you have the director and DP of Thor working on a movie set in Russia, you expect more. WTF? No wonder this thing tanked.
What I speak out of my mouth is the truth.  It burns like fire.

There you go, giving a fuck when it ain't your turn to give a fuck.

Oh my.  After Earth has been on for about 3 minutes and it's already bad.

Cel: James R. Kirk. :(  (Now that's nerdy.)

Yi: you loved it.

Infantry: when you can, I'd like to know what you decided on Fury.

Well, it's cliché over cliché ad nauseam. The only plot is what Pitt's character said. We're moving to the next town, then the next, then the next. What is Jon Bernthal's character supposed to be? Some inbred fuck from West Virginia. Pitt's character should have punched him in the mouth in the first 30 min of the movie. Everytime those Sherman's moved they were bunched up assholes to elbows. At that stage of the war I'm quite sure US tankers figured out how to move in the march. Pitt's character commits a war crime in the first 30 minutes of the movie. Really, how "Platoonish". The infantry looked like Hatfield & McCoy hillbilly's.

The AT gun fight. :P Bad to hit rolls (11, 12, 12). What a crap fest.

The set piece of the movie should have been the fight with the Tiger. What a pile of shit.. That could have been an awesome filp flopping cat and mouse scene. Instead it's reduced to assburger world of tanks crap. Again the experienced veteran American tank platoon is bunched up assholes to elbows and stay bunched up. No interval what so ever. The Tiger gives up every advantage it has over those Shermans.....bullshit. However, most of the time the Tiger's front glacis was angle towards the Shermans. That was realistic by all accounts.

The whole crossroads battle was a assburger shit fest.

D- wait till it comes out on video and barrow it.

and that's giving credit to the movie for using the only running Tiger Ausf.E in the world.


"You guys are crazy. Look, when we was in the bocage country, we was assaulted by those Tigers. You know what I mean by assaulted, WELL I MEAN ASSAULTED." The Kelly's Heroes Tiger fight made more sense.   

THANK YOU. :hug:

Except I actually gave it a D+ thanks to using real tanks, but, yeah, it's like one of the worst movies I've seen this year.

We already know the two of you have bad taste. Didn't need to reconfirm it.

I thought 300 was just an excuse to show scantily clad, hot guys. :unsure:
