Yes, now you knowHOLY ******G **** THE FOLLOWINGGGGGGGG!!!!!!
To this day, I still will never understand how Spiderman 3 got knocked off the tracks. 1 was solid, set the tone. 2 was an upgrade, and we were on our way. 3 announces Venom, and EVERYBODY is just bursting to see that one and that franchise would just go nuclear from there and then..... limp richard.
How the hell did that happen?
I think Amazing Spidey did much the same. It has set the tone, darkened it a bit, and with Foxx comin in next, I think 2 could surpass and set us up for another horrible Venom Spidey 3.
As for this
Don't do that. What Nolan did is beyond 1 in a million. It's like saying that every Sci-Fi movie has to be Empire Strikes Back to be good. Or every gangster movie ever done needs to be Godfather II. That's not happening. You have to view Avengers on a singular level. The same, but opposite of TDK. In a way, Comic book movies are supposed to be bright colored, flashy toys, fun, humor, sexy chicks runnin around in high heels kickin ***. Little teenage boys dreams. Avengers does that, but keeps it grounded. They do everything you would want, but makes it as realistically as possible, considering Aliens droppin by for lunch in New York and what not. Gotta give a little, to take a little.
Dark Knight ain't that. It's hard feelings. Dreary. Depressing. One lone shining light of hope. An entire police force is corrupt, but one guy, oh he can make all the difference. In a way, that's just as unbelievable as Aliens in New York, but in a realistic way. (if that makes sense) COULD an entire police force be corrupt? Yeah, I guess. But is there really gonna be one, ya know, outside the LAPD of course. Nolan makes you think it's all based in reality, and it COULD be possible, or true, and no hokey fantasy stuff, but I'm sorry, filthy rich billionaires don't usually fly helicopters around that no one can detect. And I find it a smidge on the um, not possible side that one man can swoop in on a town, and for THREE MONTHS be chillin in town, and the US government doesn't do **** except sit at the bridge and watch.
Again, I'm making light of the two, but in a movie sense, you have to view them on their own. Personally, yes, I prefer what Nolan did, no question, but that doesn't detract what Avengers pulled off. Multiple super heroes, all on screen together, doesn't get jumbled, pretty straight forward, performances were all good, dialogue was decent enough, pace was perfect, little to no drag, if there was no Dark Knight, if Nolan never does that, Avengers would be the beacon for all comic book movies. It would be unquestioned as the leader in the clubhouse. Just as Heat, or Casino, or Goodfellas would rule the gangster genre, were there no Godfather. Make those movies any less outstanding? Not at all.
The Sound of Music thinks that movie would be too long.
Olympus Has Fallen Trailer
Yo what's with Hollywood studios working on same themes for movies coming out the same year? Channing Tatum has a disaster movie about White House destruction coming out called White House Down later this year.
This one's Antoine Fuqua starring Angela Bassett, Gerry Butler, Morgan Freeman, & Aaron Eckhart as the President...It's weird seeing the White House under assault. Kinda creepy really...
$5 Tuesday for me! Probably the only great thing Sacramento has to offerI'll be watchin that, at home tho, not a theatre joint.
True Life Drama 'Fruitvale' Is The Weinstein Company's First Buy At Sundance
When Harvey Weinstein makes a move, people pay attention. And while he only landed in Park City yesterday, it didn't take long for him for him to make his first buy.
The Weinstein Company have snatched up the rights for the true life drama "Fruitvale," beating Fox Searchlight, Focus Features and Paramount for the rights. Featuring Octavia Spencer and "Chronicle" star Michael B. Jordan, and produced by Forest Whitaker, the film tells the story of the hours leading up to New Year's Day in 2009, when the 22 year-old Oscar Grant was pulled off a rowdy BART train at the Fruitvale station, and was shot in the back, dying from his wounds. However, cell phone footage captured the entire event, leading to the sentencing of Officer Mehserle to two years in prison.
The film has been building buzz in Utah, with the hot ticket movie "making everyone cry." Harv forked over a reported $2.5 million for Ryan Cogler's feature debut, and while no date is set yet for the movie, we figure it would be a factor in the 2013 awards race for the distributor.
In short, Meth moved the thread into General because it hasn't been about Sports in some time and it should be in the proper forum. It's unfair to those who would never go into the Sports forum to find a movie thread and especially after the issues about T.A.N. discussing sports, shoes, etc. topics, it needed to be moved.Took me 10 minutes to find this thread. Whats up with the title change? Whats up with the switch into general? And is it strictly movies now?

As far as I know, TV discussion is still fine since there isn't a multipurpose TV thread (and we don't really need one right now) Most shows that have even a decent following get their own thread, so I assume it can continue on the same as it has before.

Came in here to ask if anyone checked out The Following on Fox last night. I thought it was very interesting. Am definitely going to give this show a shot. I like the storyline a lot.
Went too soon
