#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,338 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Man Of Steel was very enjoyable, yes!I remember disliking X-Men 3, but I haven't seen it since opening day in the theaters, so I need to give it a second chance.No need to see any of the previous ones before seeing The Wolverine though. It's almost a completely separate story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wojo 2,455 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Iron Man 2 was about one hour too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crocodile 8,290 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Maybe even two hours...No, seriously. The film is obsolete. It tells us the same story as the first one, but with less focus. The only thing is the bulidup to Avengers. And even that doesn't go anywhere.Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,338 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 I agree that Iron man 2 is entertaining. I don't think it's a good film though. There barely is a story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,338 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 It's basically RDJ given a bit too much free reign and a script that goes in a lot of directions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A24 4,457 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 I don't remember Iron 2. It's a typical Hollywood product. You watch it, it's not boring but you're not invigorated either. The next day you have forgotten about it. Next!Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,338 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 People overreact about these things. Like those that say X-Men: Origins is one of the worst films ever made. It's not. It's just a very average film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A24 4,457 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 I guess they expect every Marvel movie to be a life-changing experience. I don't expect that at all. I'm already happy if I don't switch it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintus 5,407 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 No Steef, Origins may not have set the world alight, but it was competent. It had a beginning, middle and end.

Iron Man 2 didn't know whether it was coming or going, it was just scenes.Iron man 2 has a story about Russian Mickey Rourke wanting revenge, for some reason, something about a rival arms dealer of Tony Stark, something about Stark dying and a bunch of The Avengers set up with Samual L. Jackson turning up mid film, spouting a bunch of jive-ass exposition and then disappearing again.And none of it really matches. quite a shoddy script.Anthony Hopkins ‘already forgotten’ Thor: The Dark World:http://uk.movies.yahoo.com/anthony-hopkins-already-forgotten-thor-dark-world-105200577.htmlWell...it's a Marvel film.

Brónach 1,304 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 I'm looking at the trailer and I'm finding it rather dull. It's hard to believe they would end up actually scrweing up this character's world out of the lot.On the other hand, Guardians of the Galaxy is looking more fun every day.

crocodile 8,290 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 In fact he has said a similar thing on many occasions. Didn't he almost quit acting after Titus? And that's one of his finest performances, no doubt.Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A24 4,457 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I've come to Marvel at a late stage in my life and I'm used to doing more conventional films. - Anthony HopkinsAnd yet his directorial debut 'Slipstream' is way less conventional than any Marvel movie ever made.

crocodile 8,290 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Maybe they're releasing the digital edition on they're own and co-releasing the physical product with Intrada.

Matt C 459 Posted October 19, 2013 Author Share Posted October 19, 2013 What I hear of Tyler's score is disappointing. It's like Alan Taylor temped the edit with Game of Thrones music and asked Tyler to follow it.I really miss Doyle's theme for the first film.

Dixon Hill 4,236 Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Disappointing. Doyle's music with the whole "Yggdrasil" credits sequence was a thrilling combination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muad'Dib 1,835 Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 At least they should let him write a sort of Can You Lokit? kind of track for the end credits.It's only fitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt C 459 Posted October 20, 2013 Author Share Posted October 20, 2013 So he didn't adapt Doyle's theme? That doesn't surprise me.It's possible Tyler could've referenced or used Doyle's theme in the score proper (14 minutes of underscore doesn't present a new theme for Thor in the B-roll footage). If it's another situation like Iron Man 3 and Captain America: The Winter Soldier, then it's disappointing.Seems like the only thematic continuity was the Captain America and tesseract themes being used in The Avengers, but it was fortuitous since Alan Silvestri scored both.
