Talk About What Movies You've Seen Lately

Tonight I saw Batman vs Superman. Part of the time I had no idea what was going on, I guess I need to read up on it to figure it out.

It wasn't just you, lol.

Dream stuff was super weird.

Apparently a lot of that stuff is hinting at villains from comics, a taste of what is to come.

It probably also doesn't help that I haven't seen any Superman movies since Christopher Reeve played him, or Batman since.... Michael Keaton? Maybe George Clooney? But nothing recent.

The things I found confusing &/or dumb were:

Spoiler

-The beginning... Superman was being blamed for causing problems & everyone hated him.
-The dream sequence was the part where I looked at the person next to me & said "I have no idea what's going on!"
-Batman trying to kill Superman. At all. What a jerk!
-The part where Batman went from trying to kill Supes to suddenly being his best buddy, just because they both have mom's named Martha seemed super dumb. It seemed really illogical for him to do a 180 that fast. When he did save Martha & said 'I'm a friend of your son's' I laughed out loud. I wanted him to add 'but 15 minutes ago I was trying to kill him'
-Superman using the Kryptonite spear on the alien instead of asking Wonder Woman or Batman to do it, when he knows it'll kill him seemed like a dumb idea for someone supposed to be so smart.

Spoiler

Sidebar: Wonder Woman lassoing the huge alien guy with her Lasso of Truth made me laugh, she should have asked him some questions!

I saw Bruce vs Clark also. I should have waited for Redbox or even to borrow from the library.

Saw the Jungle Book on Saturday last. It was far better than I expected. I thought it would be something like the 1942 Jungle Book live action featurewith Sabu. Imagine my surprise when it turned out to be an almost faithful adaptation of the Disney animated version from 1967. It's truly amazing what CGI and 3D can do these days.

I saw the new Captain America movie last weekend, fun movie.

Angry Birds. Very cute movie!

Now I understand why the birds are so angry

I liked it so much, watched it 20 times already.

I just caught "Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel."

It was quirky and at times laughable, but there were some great bits. I enjoyed it. The accents added a lot, too.

Here's the trailer...

Thats a fantastic film... saw that a few years back, and even MrsPsionandy (who usually doesn't go in for this sort of thing) loved it.

10 Cloverfield Lane just came out on Redbox, & I had a free rental coming so I watched it tonight.

Wow, John Goodman plays a creepy guy REALLY well!

The Monkey King 2.

 

[psionandy]

Was it better than the Original Monkey King?

I saw a trailer for the reboot of the Ghostbusters franchise.

I think they need to apply some patches and updates before they really reboot.

Ugh.

Yes I had a bad feeling about that one. Reboots rarely improve on the originals.
