Arpy 4,145 Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Oh God, Nemesis dune buggy chases, terrible CGI, the entire plot in the trailer, nonsensical cliché-driven drivel - this film looks like utter poo poo. How does this character justify a standalone film? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naïve Old Fart 9,528 Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 I'm not sure if he's totally wasted in this film, or not, but I'm an absolute sucker for Tom Hardy (if he's not the next Bond, then there's no justice in the world!), so I'll probably watch this. A film doesn't have to be brilliant , to be worth seeing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giftheck 916 Posted July 31, 2018 Author Share Posted July 31, 2018 New trailer, villain is Riot. It's much more on point than I thought it would be. This is very much the Lethal Protector version of Venom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crumbs 14,315 Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Sony gutting this movie to score a PG-13 rating is the most blatant money-grabbing move of the year by any studio. I hope the film is a spectacular flop as a result, and Sony (the worst movie studio by far) lose millions. Jerks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mstrox 6,651 Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 There’s no way this movie was going to be any good. Sony is right to open it up to a broader and less discerning audience. I’m sure that there will be an unrated or director’s cut Blu-Ray that has the “pure” garbage movie. Nick1Ø66 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the second part, I'll keep seeing films to make up my own mind, thanks. I don't think you understand what "literally" means. I didn't say that "because" the used the scream the film was going to suck. Lots of films have the Wilhelm scream. Everyone knows that. But to feature it so conspicuously in a promo clip seems a little lame to me, especially when this is presumably a clip meant to get people excited. It's not the only reason the film is going to suck. No reasonable person could infer that from my comment, which was clearly meant tongue in cheek. It's just an indication that the film is going to suck. But yes, if it makes you feel any better, I think the film is going to suck based on the trailer. And based on Sony's recent track record. And because the whole think in general looks like shite. Good enough? Now, if this were Star Wars or Indiana Jones, I might be willing to cut it a little slack. But this movie? No. But enjoy! I'll wait for the torrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick1Ø66 4,714 Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 While I'm certainly a Game of Thrones fan, I chose that avatar because for quite some time Danish friends and acquaintances told me I was the spitting image of actor Pilou Asbæk, whom I had never seen until his performance as Euron Greyjoy (I don't wear a crown however). Though I've since seen him in a Danish political drama, the name of which escapes me at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope gutting your movie into an incomprehensible mess was worth that oh-so-important teenage demographic that, after reading reviews, will now just wait until the Bluray leaks online and pirate the movie. It's actually amazing a studio can be so incompetent as to make the same mistakes over and over and over again. Arpy and Holko 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giftheck 916 Posted October 3, 2018 Author Share Posted October 3, 2018 Stop trusting these critics and make your own mind up on things (not you personally, crumbs, but in general). I've lost count of the number of times they got it woefully wrong in recent years. The Last Jedi's reception debacle is a very recent reminder. I'd be more concerned at a Cinemascore polling as that reflects real audience reactions. In any case I'll give the film a chance, for better or ill.

Bilbo 3,709 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 I think we need a break from films that have any connection to comic books. There’s too many and they’re mostly trash or just mediocre non entities (see Age of Ultron). Just fucking stop already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
