Agree very talented and perfect for her roles in both Gone Girl and I Care A Lot, I can't imagine anyone else playing Amy Dunne like she did. Will be very interested to see her in The Wheel of Time series on Amazon.

Took my son to see new Spider man today. Very good!

How did the movies you hate thread get merged with this? Not remotely the same dialogue.

I’m new though, is consolidation or threads a common thing?

I mentioned it here earlier and though it was strange too. Why? Saving virtual space? lol

Just watched the new Spider-Man movie.

I won't spoil it for anyone. However... It like most of the Spider-Man franchise, is just not anywhere near as entertaining as other Marvel films. He's just too immature and silly. The character iby his nature is obnoxious. But especially so in the films. Maybe that's the appeal to many. Now obviously, the Box Office numbers don't lie, a ginormous amount of people enjoy the character and his films.
Keep in mind, I am like beyond a huge fan of everything Marvel! The Avengers, Thor, Captain America, Dr Strange, etc are far more entertaining for me.
The action and fight scenes like all Marvel movies was fantastic. Just too much silliness and drama for my tastes.

Watched Rocky tonight. What a great last 30 minutes to a film.

No, you’re just wrong!

Not always appreciated (in this case, I fully agree it should be two separate threads, as I only replied in the second one, not this original one), but sometimes it's helpful (when two people post the same thing, vide the guy who just asked where to sell his M2C when we just had a thread where our Washignton friend asked the same thing about his M2).

It's never clear or informed though, always a surprise. This question and answer may not be here tomorrow, hope you see it now.

I don't remember two threads being consolidated before. Maybe I'm getting old and my memory is not as good as it used to be. What threads were you referring to?

It's very very common. Can't think of a particular one now. I'd watch that M2C thread on where to sell it. That one is prime for it.

It happens mostly when someone posts the link to some news piece and it's repeated. The comments then make sense to be merged

I try to pay attention, lol. When you can think of a couple of threads that've been merged here, please post it. I'd like to know. Really don't remember any since I've been hanging around this part of the forum.

I was going to look again tonight.

I used Films Plus. There were 6 links and all were legitimately the new movie.

I thoroughly enjoyed the new spider man. Not sure which of the green goblin, hand with cheesy gemstones snapping away life, flying humans from outter space movies TX expects to not fit the silly bill, but if you couldn’t watch, enjoy, laugh and appreciate the merging I can imagine we wouldn’t enjoy the same company at a party.

[M5Rick]

This one next.

[Alfisti]

That's the second best one IMHO, good viewing.

Even after all the hype I didn't expect it to be as good as it was!

Also saw Being The Ricardo's and while I though the movie was good and the performances spectacular, Nicole and Javier are about 10 years too old for the roles. Nicole is pretty much covered in bad plastic surgery or cheap de-aging cgi.

Looking forward to seeing "Being the Ricardos." Glad you liked it. Hope I do as well. Will try to squint and not notice the aging actors. lol

I watch movies at home all the time. Studios send me screeners all year-round. However, after feeling somewhat underwhelmed by DUNE watching at home, I got the opportunity to attend a screening with Denis Villeneuve and Hans Zimmer over at the Warner Brothers lot. I was blown away. The work they did with music, sound, cinematography etc... they just created an experience that is a MUST for the big screen with the best sound system money can buy.

Denis Villeneuve is on the left, next to the panel moderator, Hans Zimmer is the one wearing the scarf. The producer is between them, and the two on the right are the sound mixer and sound designer.

Aaron Sorkin as a screenwriter is hit or miss with me. I like most of his work, some of it I absolutely can't stand. This is one that I really enjoyed his screenplay. As a director, I thought he did a very good job. I think he is cribbing off of Danny Boyle a bit, and it worked for the most part.
