dullest

As much as I'd like to attempt to, I can't prove you wrong with regard to one of the dullest franchise in the history of movie franchises? Each episode following the boy wizard and his pals from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series’ only consistency has been its lack of excitement and ineffective use of special effects, all to make magic unmagical, to make action seem inert.

Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series; she made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody, just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for her books. The Harry Potter series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-James Bond series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.

>a-at least the books were good though
"No!"
The writing is dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs."

I began marking on the back of an envelope every time that phrase was repeated. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times. I was incredulous. Rowling's mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that she has no other style of writing. Later I read a lavish, loving review of Harry Potter by the same Stephen King. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are reading Harry Potter at 11 or 12, then when they get older they will go on to read Stephen King." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you read "Harry Potter" you are, in fact, trained to read Stephen King.

I'll tell you about the masketta man

Dredd isn't underrated even though it flopped at the box office. And Equilibrium is trash that only pre-teens like.

>>79392988
so what do you recommend? i watched the nice guys after. really liked it

>>79393262
What kind of a movie are you looking for? Something with a lot of shootouts or just action in general and does it matter what country it comes from?

Anon at /tv/, shit posting with hands wide open

Bane, when the plane fell

its a pretty good patrician film

>>79392588
I think you're wrong, because just because homosexuality is becoming normalized (it really isn't, especially if you live outside the US), it doesn't mean it was close to being normalized during the setting of the film.

Cultural context is important, anon.

>>79392624
this desu

Your argument is the same as people who say the original Star Trek is racist and sexist, even though it was groundbreakingly diverse and progressive for its time period, especially for a major release.

BANE WILL BREACH IT

WATCH IT GARBAGE DISPOSAL UNION.

>I thought not. It's not a story the Feds would It's a paisan legend. Big Pussy was a wiseguy of the family who lived many years ago. He was so powerful and so connected that he could use the family to influence the bookies to create dough. He had such a knowledge of the old country that he could even keep the balls he cared about from breaking.
>The omerta is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.
>What happened to him?
>He became so powerful... the only thing he was afraid of was losing his gabagool, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, and then one night, his apprentice busted his balls in front of his crew. Ironic. He could save others from disrespect, but not himself.

>Now the guy's got Jabba as a partner. Any problems, he goes to Jabba. Trouble with the bills? He can go to Jabba. Trouble with the Imps, deliveries, Vader, he can call Jabba. But now the guy's gotta come up with Jabba's money every week, no matter what.You got boarded? Fuck you, pay me!
You got picked up by an Imperial tractor beam near Alderaan? Fuck you, pay me!

It's leaps and bounds better than Silent Hill Revelations.

Aww. I was hoping it would be good. Might still go and see it.

It'd be difficult to make a movie about a guy who hasn't left his house for the last ten years and just sits around watching anime and spending his autismbux on katanas

But Predator 2 takes place in 1997.

This is fucking stupid. The film is set in boring ass suburbia and there's going to be an annoying kid.

The fuck were they thinking?

>>79390979
>1997 was 30 years ago

feels bad man ;_;
