Superhero/ Star Wars-discussion COOL KIDS ONLY

Wally

nicksneddon Nah, he’s usually good but in this case as soon as he says ‘are we not done with this sort of movie after avengers: inifnity war?’ his review became the bored rantings of someone who didn’t want to be there. Kermode has never been the biggest fan of Marvel flicks in the first place and also seems to gripe about the production line assembly of film. News at 10: that’s how big budget hollywood flicks get made Mark.

Soz to hear you didn’t enjoy it though Nick.

nicksneddon

Yeah I was just completely underwhelmed by it tbh

Smallman1

You know the rules lads, if Wal likes it, it’s nailed on bobbins.

Wally

Smallman1 You mean to tell me I’ve been preparing my 30 page ‘Marvel movies’ powerpoint demonstration for our meet up on Sunday for nothing?!?!!!

Smallman1

Your A game and a kitchen sink are all that’s required Wal!

I hear the Incal has been given the green light to be made into a film. Firstly, not everything needs to be a film. Secondly, this really doesn’t need to be a film. Thirdly, just fuck off. Forthly, I’m willing to put my copy of Disk 2 on them including the probe droid, because, you know, fan service is everything these days, and fuck the actual story.

See my point above. Not the most action packed of books. Tedious at times. Can imagine this being a slow burning, claustrophobic number, as there is little story. Think Ad Astra, but somehow worse.

Homegrove

Well Hawkeye is really stupid. I love it. It’s like if Shane Black did it.

Dan

I thought it was good tbf.

Fell asleep through episode 2
🤣

erik

Only watched episode 1 so far but thought it was decent.

Homegrove

Episode 3 was great. Also really excited about the “uncle.”

Wally

Waiting until they are all out and I can binge them.

Homegrove

Wally so there goes the spoiler-discussion. 🤦‍♂️

Wally

I’ll avoid the thread. Spoil away!

zackster

Spoiler, Jeremy Renner sucks.

Homegrove

Off to see the new Spider-Man tomorrow. Skipped the last one in theatres (rightly so, it’s IMO the second worst movie in the MCU after Thor The Dark World, Mysterio sucks as a villain), but the reviews for this one made brave the masses. Although movie theatres here have covid passports.

Dan

Homegrove My stepson is seriously pissed I’m not going, but I cannot stand that runt who plays Spiderman.

That’s £15 saved and two hours down the pub whilst they fuck off out the house.

Amps

Dan I reckon after Barman, Spiderman is now my least favourite movie franchise, too many reboots and continuous bad casting choices. Although, in fairness, it’s a bit like rating ‘my least favourite dog shites that I barely notice’.

Homegrove

Amps Barman sounds like a great chacter, deffo a brummie-accent. Tom Holland’s the most comic accurate Spider-Man to date so there is that. IMO of course.

Millsy

They go like a runt ro play Peter Parker, for sure. Next up: Eddie Redmayne (shivers) and/or Smallman.

Amps

Homegrove Who fuckin cares, there’ll be another one along in five minutes. Hollywood at it’s absolute worst.

Is Spiderman just a bit too wet to ever be of any interest? Defo feels more suited to the animated versions.

Barman, can’t quite pin down his super powers, but can’t get away from him looking like Al Murray’s ‘Pub Landlord’.

vinnyt77

Amps but can’t get away from him looking like Al Murray’s ‘Pub Landlord’.

Well only when he’s not in his superhero costume, obvs.
