Justice League Lounge of Justice - Part 83

[The Shape]

@flickchick85 drives around in the snowy snow, a goddamn snow storm. She has a short skirt, yellow heels, and a ''Frankie Says Relax tshirt'' clothing not appropriate for this weather. She takes a quick look at her pink lips in the mirror when we hear a loud mass of something go underneath her car, she ran over something or someone. She rolls down her window and looks at the figure of a very bruised man in pain:

Flick: Oh, My God! Are you Stephen King?

The man replies: No. I'm Dean Koontz.

Flick: Oh. ugh! She puts the car in reverse and runs him over again.

First a Star Wars anime rip-off of the original trilogy, now anime Blade Runner???!!!

Are you going to act like the two animated Blade Runner short films weren't cool as brand new made in china bosoms? Stop lying, bald man.

 

[_Superman_]

and it's this blue in the movie! Remember JL trailer how it was blue and then in the movie so muted? Dolph Lundgren's daughter leaked 3 seconds of the movie (lol) and it was so colorful and vibrant not muted at all

To be fair in a lot of things in JL wasn't what was promised to us.

 

[Polux]

Soooo...basically just all of the previous SW movies....but animated....ok.

Whoa.

The Dirty Dozen

Man, they sure don't make them like this anymore. I can't think of any modern American actor who has that tough ''mans man'' type thing about him. They all now come from foreign lands, British. Lee Marvin and Charles Bronson enough said. Plot is simple. Get a dozen of soldiers on death row and train them to kill Nazis. Tarantino took many moments and plot ideas from this pic for Inglorious Basterds. Marvin was drunk for 80% of the filming and the crew had to practically drown him in coffee every single day for filming. They say Bronson grabbed him in a headlock and threw him in a river, so he'll get ''sober'' quicker, which I found that to be hilarious. A goddamn classic. Fantastic double feature with IB.

Really? Aquaman imagery look so over-done to me. That weirdly overburnt color grading.

To me, Aquaman looks like it could be a Zack Snyder movie. It looks like it has the same stylistic sensibiities as 300 or Man Of Steel. Its definitely a lot more crisper and more colorful than a Zack movie but to me it evokes that same style.

Agreed, that's one of the reasons why the movie feels like it has "Zack's DNA" (others being of course the cast, backstory, etc); it has that "larger than life" and "mythic" quality and flair that very few movies in the genre have, that whole "comic book brought to life" thing. Zack is the master of that, and Wan seems to be right up there too

Finally time to watch Venom, boys and girls...

Finally time to watch Venom, boys and girls...

oh have a great time!

I sincerely believe Hardy's delivery of "HOLY ****!" when he is escaping on motorcycle should be enough to win him Best Actor in a just world

 

[Consona]

Yea, this is exactly how mythic the film feels...

 

[Black Narcissus]

@StarLord @Black Narcissus A must listen.

Junkfood Cinema: The Road Warrior

Folks often forget that Mel was a gorgeous mf, man.That kiwi gel. I liked Hardy in the role, but would buy plenty of tickets to see Mel again in the role. Old man Max.

WB's been sitting on a gold mine with this property.

I was merely referring to the visual aspects of it, not the humor, which honestly I dig too, although I'm "wait and see" -like with every movie- I've really enjoyed the humor in the Wan movies I've seen so far.

 

[Black Narcissus]

Another film going forward that ain't Superman.

Get @herolee10 on the phone!

Not a fan of how they are doing my boy Ted Kord and acting like he was never the Blue Beetle anymore.

 

[Enriquespy]

Hey Guys, you should all go see Alfono Cuaron's ROMA as soon as you can.

It's not just 'cause he is Mexican, but also a little bit that.

 

[Consona]

The new Cap Marvel trailer looks dope, though...

Not playing anywhere near me, but will be on Netflix in a week. Children of Men is all time great scifi flick.

 

[MbJ]

Roma's been sweeping up the awards. Can't wait until it's up for streaming. Insta watch.

Not a fan of how they are doing my boy Ted Kord and acting like he was never the Blue Beetle anymore.

Hey he may still show up in some capacity. Unless they just omit the previous Blue Beetles entirely.

Speaking of Venom.... (You can tell the influences/parallels they'll explore onscreen)

Cool, a young latino super hero brings something new to the table, this is a property with great potential and remember, just because it might be "on the works" (pretty sure I've heard that about the project before) it doesn't mean it's happening in the next couple of years; studios do early development in countless movies all the time and always have, we just heard it all (although mostly information pulled out of someone's rectum) at once.

Just hope they at least pull a "Hank Pym" with Ted Kord.

 

[flickchick85]

You must be that Dean Koontz fan I’ve heard rumors about!

 

[KalvinEllis]

I assume Ted could play the mentor role, like he did in recent Blue Beetle comics. Though it's true that DC has been treating the guy horribly for quite a while now.

Where’s my Booster Gold film?!
