Rob Liefield's Favorite Movies

It probably shouldn't, but it bothers me when Liefeld plays up the fact that he created any of his characters, since they were all garbage until other writers made them work.

>return to the X-TREME EDGY era

pls no

>>78984557
Well, they were some of my favorites as well. Plus, I like cargo shorts because of the extra pockets.

Based Rob with the REAL taste.

Hey man, Rob might be a pretty bad artist, but he is a cool guy.

And he is right to be excited, so fuck you all.

Deadpool will be more memey though

>>78984650
Are you trying to claim those movies are bad?

>>78984728
Fucking millenials don't know bout my 80s quips

>>78984650
better than this pussy ass SJW tumblr era TBQHWYFAM

>>78984557
>Comic book action comedy is on the same level as some of the most iconic and beloved action movies ever because it has blood and the word "fuck"
Oh, Rob

>>78984755
They are.

>>78984650
>>return to the X-TREME EDGY era
If it means the death of insipid pastel-color animation and comics, then I welcome it.

>>78984557
>not Terminator 2
die scum

>>78984884
He wasn't a teen when that came out.

>>78984804
Are you saying your taste is shit?

>>78984557

Liefeld thought Deadpool up, but Kelly MADE him.

>>78984884
>as a teen

Terminator 2 was out when he was in his 20's, you fuck-up

>>78984933
No

Die Hard would cap out today under $300m; going by ticket price inflation it would do about the same as by general inflation. It also cost fuck all to make by modern standards, which is partly because audiences demand higher-definition imagery and this pushes up costs all over.

Terminator looks like shit today; it was made on what was a very low budget even then and was a surprise hit. Most hit R-rated movies are a surprise; the vast majority (we're talking dozens to one) are lossmakers that sink without trace. Theater chains won't even keep them in a screen because they make so little. Terminator's "big gross" was only considered a hit because it cost so little to make originally. It would make something like $175m to $186 today depending on whether you went straight inflation or ticket price inflation.

Predator is a similar story, falling about halfway between Die Hard and Terminator in both budget and worldwide gross. Lethal Weapon would cost about $30m to make today - and make around $240m back. It was a big hit for Mel Gibson, who was a cult figure but didn't have wide appeal at that time. The key difference with Gibson and Reynolds of course being that Reynolds doesn't even have a cult following - he's just a pretty boy who inexplicably gets lead roles even after failing again and again.

Rambo wasn't a movie until 2008... First Blood outperformed it significantly in real-terms, but that came during the ascendancy of Stallone's career, when he was already a big star with a successful franchise behind him (Rocky).

The reason those franchises became franchises isn't that they were R-rated - it's that they had a lucky break. There were plenty of R-rated movies that sank without trace from the same era, just as there are today - because people don't go see R-rated in anything like the same numbers.

tl;dr Rob's an idiot

>>78984884
I like Terminator better than T2, but Aliens better than Alien.

Michael Biehn makes everything better.

>>78984557
What part of "as a teen" you don't understand?

>>78984994
You're contradicting yourself.

>>78984557
Rob Liefield is one of those guys who is really nice, and a stand-up cool bro, but he suffers from an extreme lack of taste.

>>78985158
You sound like a total plebeian

>>78985155
You are the faggiest faggot that ever walked into fagtown.

>>78985233
People always say this, but I've never seen any evidence of him being any more nice or pleasant than the average person.

>>78985177
Based Barry Windsor-Smith said
>Rob Liefeld has nothing to offer. It’s as plain as bacon on your plate. He has nothing to offer. He cannot draw. He can’t write. He is a young boy almost, I would expect, whose culture is bubble gum wrappers, Saturday morning cartoons, Marvel Comics; that’s his culture. Somebody was at his house and came back with a report: There is not a single book in his house — only comic books. I see nothing in his work that allows me to even guess that there’s any depth involved in that person that might come to the fore given time

>>78984755
Terminator has struggled for 30 years to explain the time-travel paradox it creates in the first movie, and failed on five occasions. Compared to later movies it looks like ass - and that's compared to T2, which has aged like milk.

Predator is a guy in a rubber suit movie. It's so bad it's good, but it's basically just Commando with a monster. It's bad even compared to Predators.

Lethal Weapon is so bad even Mel Gibson doesn't like it. It's the tropiest troper tropey trope trope.

Die Hard is good if you like strangely camp movies about men wrasslin, but the sequels are a mixed bag at best.

Rambo is just... just don't. You might as well be excited for Leprechaun.

Not Robocop? What a fucking hack.

The "Liefeld is nice" meme was debunked back in 2012 when he threw a fit about DC/Snyder and shared Snyder's PMs just to be a dick. Yeah he's polite to fans at cons, that's just common sense.

>>78985145
Yeah, I'm the pleb because I prefer the tighter story and better atmosphere of 1. Enjoy your special effects dependant action garbage. They even ruined the theme

Will Rob make a Stan Lee-esq cameo in the Deadpool movie?

>>78985355
That's the rumor

>>78985284
anyone actually watch the robocop reboot?
Was it as bad as it sounded?

>>78985220
No

>>78985430
It was a mediocre film. But a terrible one if you have knowledge of the original.

>>78985103
They should've called it "Killshot Murderverse," and given Killshot two Desert Eagles instead of a shield and put in twice as many lesbians and had Killshot fuck them all like it was No Big D.

>>78984650
POUCHES!

>>78984608
That's corporate comics for you. You create character for your overlord and if you're remembered, awesome.

>>78985318
>tighter story

>muhh atmosphere

At least T2 doesn't focus on the time travel paradox and actually gives you a tight story and interesting characters with good performances.

FUCK OFF EDGELORDS.

This sounds like reaching to come up with reasons to complain about the films.

>>78985430
Just very, very bland.
It's watchable, but there's really no point to doing so.

I don't remember if they gave a reason for keeping the one hand.

>>78985465
Honest question: Do you actually think you are being clever or funny right now?

>>78984557
I am so with him it aint even funny.

>>78984557
The difference between Deadpool and all those films is that they were action movies, not comedies. Also half of them would only get an M rating today.

>>78984650
>hating on classic action movies and labelling as "X-TREME EDGY".

This board is truly beyond help. Might as well call it /cu/.

Pleb. My favourite films as a teen were Throne of Blood, Wild Strawberries and The Double Life of Veronique

>>78985658
Not really, but making fun of a guy who's mad at pastel colors doesn't warrant cleverness.

>>78985812
There's a reason other boards have taken to calling this place /co/mblr.

>>78985841
I'm not mad at the concept of pastel colours
I'm mildly upset that everything has pastel colours and nobody tries to be original.

Perhaps if you got your head out of your ass you wouldn't be so defensive?

I don't know my rambo-ology, I've only seen the first one... and parts of another as it passed on TV. it was very different from the first.
Hot Shot Part Deux is my favourite Rambo movie

Dunno. He seemed like legit bro when he called that radio to defend Aquaman.

If you don't think Die Hard is a legitimately good film then you have bad taste. Simple as that

RIP Hans

Speaking of Lethal Weapon I'm glad Shane Black is going back to his roots with The Nice Guys. We need more action films with casual violence.

But you can't really hate the guy, he's a massive indie / alternative comics pusher and generally a fun guy to be around, as long as he doesn't pissed off.

I am absolutely certain they wrote and possibly filmed that part of the movie assuming it was supposed to take place in a tropical South American country before a script change placed all the location to still be in/near L.A. and they were all, "eh, fuck it."

I am also certain that this was the correct decision.

Wow, America throws the R rating around a lot. A lot of those movies are M rated in Australia, that means kids can rent them from video shops and adult supervision is only advised (not mandatory) for kids under 15.

I mean, fucken Lethal Weapon? It's a comedy. That and Die Hard are almost kid friendly. As long as a kid as been told 'Son, shooting people is bad' they should be ready to watch these movies unsupervised.
