'Sleeper'
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.
Yeah, psychic space squid would have been incredibly difficult to pull off as the climax to a serious dramatic movie.
And also for Watchmen to pull off, I'd wager. (You can't tell me that was supposed to be a serious dramatic movie. I went, I saw the Halleluja scene, I busted out laughing...)
wrong thread
I went, I saw the Halleluja scene, I busted out laughing...
Seriously, me too. I'm fairly certain there was some eye-rolling, too.
Entertainment Weekly listed that as one of their top 20 unsexy sex scenes.
Now I need to go look up EW top 20 unsexy sex scenes.
I'm a little afraid to reread Watchman now, because I'm wary that how I feel about the movie will change how I view the comic.
I'm currently rereading the comic and I'm fine, except for being sad/angry that Snyder essentially ruined the movie.
I find it deeply amusing that my cousin saw Man of Steel and thought it was amazing and the best superhero movie ever. Demonstration of how, even when most of my family see the same media, we're not watching the same thing at all. (Granted, I am not going to go see it, but I trust your alls opinion a lot more than hers.)
I am happy to see they apparently do right by the antagonist--both the motivation (hello!) and performance.
