Superhero/ Star Wars-discussion COOL KIDS ONLY

Amps 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.

Her playing Kleopatra has also pissed off some people with feelings about Palestine.

Really liked the new Spider-Man. It also managed to surprise me a few times.

So the new Spider-Man movie took in nearly 600 million dollars on it’s opening weekend. Third biggest opening EVER. Just in time too, as many countries are closing cinema’s again.

Homegrove I’d have to be taken at gunpoint to go and see another Marvel film at the cinema.

nicksneddon I didn’t mention Star Wars…

Gal Gadot is the worst actor I’ve ever seen. Dog shit human being too.

Thoroughly enjoyed Spiderman:NWH. Great flick. No wonder it’s doing gangbusters.

Took our younger one to see it at the weekend and actually enjoyed it myself. Good fun. Not going to pretend that i wasn’t a bit embarrassed for the people who were cheering at the screen when two previous spidermen appeared lol.

Wearing costumes?

Thoroughly enjoyed it with the boy. Nice nods to prevent movies too.

Can’t wait for this…

I just hope they bother to explain how he got out of the Sarlaac pit!

I have hope that that will be explained and that the story will be as cohesive as Mando has so far been. If the Last Jedi director was involved though, I’d be frickin’ worried, as he made some horrible choices in his “masterpiece of shite”.

I will be binge watching, when it’s all released. Hope you enjoy it!

Well Hawkey was fun. Full on comics as live action-nonsense.

Thought Book Of Boba Fett was excellent.

Dan Is it one show / film or a series?

Amps show. No idea if one season only.

Made me laugh!

erik loved how they answered THE question

He’s gay?

zackster oddly no

Dan Be prepared to feel unnatural urges towards strange foreign largers and a compulsion to sew patches onto all your clothes.

Amps IPAs and sours. Lager I prefer cheap because there’s hardly any difference.

Enjoyed Boba Fett’s practical effects a lot. The monster in the first episode was straight out of a Ray Harryhousen-movie, just done today. Otherwise it felt like an episode of Xena or Hercules, just with a bigger budget. Had the same issue with Mandolerian. I will continue watching, but I’m well aware my criticism is pointless, because I’m not the target audience. Kids are.

Which brings up the guestion whether Xena had as big of middle aged following as these two shows have had. I was a teenager at the time.

I’m not too sure many kids will get Boba Fett. Maybe people in their early 20’s brought up on the sequels….along with middle age men

Just had a few pints of London Pride after tennis…. cracking Ale.

Dan sorry, but London Pride is the type of beer you think is good before you’ve actually had good beers. I used to love all Fullers’ beers, now I drink them if the pub doesn’t have anything better.

The kids have seen all of the previous Star Wars-stuff too. So they do know him.

What is it with this guy? Can one of you weirdos explain it to me? As far as I can tell he sucks on most achievable levels. Help me understand.

You don’t get a raging boner from this?

Admit it, you’re just jealous because he’s boinking Zendaya.

I do like Zandaya. Can’t say I find to be irresistibly gorgeous, but she is a good actor. Big fan of Euphoria. Now please address my Tom Holland question.

I thought I did.

His comments about the MCU and wanting to lecture Marty were rather himbo brained I must say.

Homegrove it felt like an episode of Xena or Hercules

Doesn’t it just. The second episode was more like Boba FetT vs The Mighty Boosh

It’s beyond irksome how they get some bits right and then completely half arse other bits. That mixed with constantly going back to the well makes it a tough watch at times.

zackster dude’s young. He’s amazingly right in the head considering his level of fame at 20.

Amps I can’t see Morrison winning any Oscars tbh, Amps. Nice to see the excellent Stephen Root in that episode.

He was great as always. The Wookie looks amazing also. Can’t understand how they did his eyes. Are they the guy’s who’s in the suit?

I finally found Amps on twitter
