Pchan

Hopefully it doesn't induce a headache from all the camera motion I think is going to happen on screen. 

Yes. Thats more of what I was thinking too. Another costume upgrade over tights occurred in the old Power Rangers movie. They kept the general design and colors of the power rangers outfits, but instead of having a bunch of people running around in tights, they were upgraded to a kind of plastic storm trooperish armor. I'd have rather seen that or a captain america style outfit for the x-men instead of black leather.

Pacific Rim looks amateurish in comparison X'D

I'll go see it. 
 
Wish it wasn't PG-13 and was R, like Dredd which was fun even though it was like The Raid. 
 
Combat armor's black the silver one. Stealth is black. 
 
Big difference in plot is how he dies and how that affects the character and the movie's intent. In the original, Murphy is tortured, shot at, and eventually murdered with a bullet to the head. He was a cop all this while. Traumatic. As Robocop he suffers PTSD and that shows the human element and depth in his character. 
 
In the new movie, he's home chilling and his car explodes. Looks like the company did that to him on purpose to experiment on him, maybe he gets back to them when he finds out they did this to him and probably other cops who've been experimented on/ died in the process and he seeks revenge. 

Incredible video of a real glacier calving ... the largest ever recorded ... the sound of the thing is MASSIVE and just amazing, frakkin scary and the size of a city.
 


 

 
 

Post of the week, Myk. I salute you, that was a lot of fun to read. 
 
I do agree with what you say about knowing what it could be about and still being good. Completely agree. I try to go watch things because I kinda like giving it a chance. I know I can't hike up that high, but I still like to try it out and few sweaty hours later, I feel good I could. So yeah, this's coming from someone who watched Drive Angry and thought it was fun.
 
I'm gonna end up watching this regardless. Just being honest about my first reaction heh.

A predictable movie doesn't necessarily mean its a bad movie though if the characters & / or plot come off as dull I can only guess the movie isn't for me.
 
In which case I already hate "The Pchan Movie" based on the fact I've read the text to it more than I care to think about it.
Pchan declares to hate a movie he hasn't yet seen. If the movie is liked by anyone in the forum Pchan needs to emphasis how much it still sucks. Pchan begrudgingly sees movies & still hates it. Pchan then recites other websites movie critics hate for the movie. Even if Pchan doesn't accept that no one will agree with his view he'll still act as if he was right all along about his opinion when most if not all of the forum doesn't really care about his opinion. Pchan starts this cycle again & again despite the fact the results tend to be the same. Is it possible Pchan just likes to troll other people who might like the movie? No! Plot Twist?! Pchan talks a lot about his favorite TV shows & this is soon followed by Pchan's favorite sports proving once & for all that Pchan secretly works for Microsoft when it comes to advertising for Xbox One. TV! TV! TV! Sports! Sports! Sports! TV! TV! TV! Sports! Sports! Sports!  
As for Pompeii.... I don't feel the need to watch it. However it did give me the urge to watch Dante's Peak again.

But that would just ruin the whole plot to the sequel named The Mexican / American War where the US in fact has the ability to take over all of Mexico but then settles for buying off half they wanted at gun point.
 
....
 
Seriously dammit.... The US could've taken all of Mexico if it didn't chicken out.... What The F*** happened in that time to turn them into a bunch of pansies.... War Of 1812.... Failed to take over Canada.... Lost part of Maine.... At least we got a national anthem.... then Mexican / American War after Alamo was lost for being on what was a controversial border.... We won that?.... Gee.... Better not take this country over by force even though that's what we would've done with Canada....

Daredevil had a bad director and script, treatment was bad and his acting back then too. Jensen would have been a really bad Batman, he can't act. Affleck in the past few years has grown as an actor - The Town, To The Wonder, The Company Of Men, Argo.
 
Think about it this way - everyone loves the first Batman movie, which means they were OK with Batman. Keaton was a comedian and he had 2/3 critically acclaimed good roles right before Batman happened to him. He doesn't even look like Bruce Wayne, yet the movie as a whole worked. Keaton would not be a good Batman in Val Kilmer's version of the script or Nolan's version of the script.
 
Right now my biggest concern isn't the actor as much it is who's making it and what the script is going to be, how it's all handled. Goyer and Snyder are meh. Their script may need a guy like Affleck to play their vision of Batman.

So a few weeks ago it was announced that they'd make a flick with the Supes and Bats in it. This was supposed to be a little bit in the future from where Nolan's universe leaves it. Not sure if it's even supposed to be a link but anyway, it's probably going to tie into the Superman movie that came out recently. Snyder's in to direct this one. 
 
Yesterday it was announced Ben Affleck is Batman, the studios were looking for a slightly older guy, we all heard and knew that. Nobody could've guessed Affleck was their choice. 
 
Daredevil is the new Batman. 
 
Let's keep all discussion, trailers and what not in this thread. Movie comes out in 2015, plenty of talk to be done I presume. 

WARNING - Sledgestone, (mischievous you!!) get away from this topic and do not read spoilers before you watch the show! #JOKING hahahaha ... naah but seriously, check it out man, it's really that good a show. Every single thing, dialog, scene is well-thought and important. Cannot be forgotten or shrugged away. I can lend you the series in a few days via a care-package. 
 
Anyone else current with the series? If you are, lets discuss. Brb, gotta poop. 

Doesn't disappoint at all, I had a blast. Check it out. There's nothing new to the table but it's low on CG and well-made. Good tense moments. 

... looking.

Ordered it on demand the same day it came out and watched it. Re-watched it 2 nights ago. It's a slow-burn science fiction thriller, very impressive on technical grounds and isn't your run-of-the-mill found footage films. There's no dumb hand-shake/jerk stuff going on since there are camera's set up throughout the ship and what you see is real-time stuff. In space, anything can go wrong when you have that much distance to travel, they set off to explore Europa, a moon of Jupiter. Nice tribute to 2001 visually and when you hear
I like it. 

The world is going to end if it doesn't get back online, so the fate of this planet rests on your shoulders, Sledge.

I upgraded AC to the latest version of IPB and the latest versions of the skins. Please let me know if you see any issues.
