'War Stories'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Although I have a shameful fondness for the second Tim Burton Batman movie (Batman Returns, maybe?), with the Penguin and Catwoman.
I guess you're also sharing a brain with me. Without a doubt my favorite of the two Burton B-Man's. I'm pretty sure that has a LOT to do with Michelle Pfeiffer, though I did find Keaton an interesting choice for Batman, and he got more to do in Batman Returns.
Kevin Spacey
Best part of the movie. First time I ever wanted Clark to have his pansy ass kicked.
Saying "Loi-th Lane?" around his toothbrush KILLED me ded.
Ha! Beatcha, P-C!
Batman and Iron Man and Hulk and Hellboy and Speed Racer and Wall-E and Indiana Jones and X-Files.
I don't know how I feel about Hulk, and I can take or leave Speed Racer, and I'm kind of MEH on Wall-E, and X-Files is sorta....over, for me.
But Iron Man! And Hellboy! And Dark Knight! And INDY!!!!
Dark Knight isn't until December, I think.
I wanna see Iron Man right now!
I'm not sure I've ever had cause to say this, but: MM, get outta my brain!
Heh. Maybe not. But I think you and I are one with the "WTF?! He's a skeevy disco guy? THIS is 'evil Pete'? THIS?!"
Also: "PICK A FUCKING VILLAIN! Has the first Batman movie franchise taught you NOTHING?! One villain: Awesome. Two villains: Can still be awesome. THREE VILLAINS: Constructed Entirely of SUCK!"
They WASTED all three villains! Sandman...well, that wasn't so great a story-line, so I don't mind that they wasted it. I DO mind that they wasted my time by including it at all.
New Goblin: Could have been awesome. Not enough time. Wasted.
Venom: WAY TO BRING HIM IN TOO LATE TO DO ANYTHING, RAIMI! Jesus! If Venom had been the only villain, maybe you'd have had enough time to do some decent "power corrupts", "Parker goes back to his roots, triumphs over evil in self" "Fights Venom as Embodiment of Corruption, triumphs over evil in general." But NOOOOOOOO!!
Hmph. Still mad about that.
Tony Stark makes you feel,
He's a cool exec with a heart of steel.
And IRON MAN all jets ablaze,
He fights and smites with repulsor rays!
Amazing armor, it's IRON MAN!
A blazing bomber, it's IRON MAN!!

My fave comic book movies:
Didn't like Spiderman 1, Batman Begins, or Superman.
I adore "V for Vendetta" Unholy love for that movie have I. It's probably #1 for me.
Dark Knight isn't until December, I think.
No, it's summer. July 18.
No, it's summer. July 18.
Huh. Why did I think it was winter?
I'm going senile or something.
