Lounge of Justice - Part 90

[heatvision38]

I remember getting confused when playing the PS2 LOTR games, because some of the clips they used in the films weren't in the theatrical versions.
I'd finish a level and it'd play show a couple clips with a voiceover and I'd think "I don't remember Gandalf facing off against the Witch King" so I'd rewatch the film and sure enough, he doesn't.
Years later I find out there are extended editions and had to watch them just to get the context of those little snippets.

That PS2 Two Tower's games was a lot of fun.

Say what you want about DCEU, but so far we've got 3 appearances by Amanda Waller, which I never expected to see when DCEU first started with MoS and BvS.

David Ayer's Suicide Squad (2016)

James Gunn's The Suicide Squad (2021)

Peacemaker (HBO Max series, 2022)

i have something i am ashamed to admit:

i bought the LOTR extended editions on dvd around 15 years ago, but i never opened them.

in fact, this is a general problem i have...i have a backlog of 15+ years worth of dvds / blu-rays that i have bought but never watched.

i like to collect, but for some reason, never find the time to sit down to watch some of them.

should i seek help??

Keep the collection as Di$ney is no longer publishing most of their Classic movies like original animated Snow White (1937) and most of the FoX movies, even their recent movies can only be viewed on their streaming service. WB might start following their policy, Zaslav has a reputation of being a penny-pincher.

You can always watch LOTR movies on streaming though.

That is one of the best extra scenes yeah. Worth youtubing that one if anyone is sticking to theatricals.

Actually here, along with bonus Charge of the Rohirrim for context of where it fits.

Work done for the year. Commencing Daredevil rewatch.

Got me some fresh cuban cigars! From my german connect.

Also, went to my local liquor store which is the size of a smaller walmart, found 4 bottles of Hibiki, and I couldn't just take one, had to take all of them. Simply great. A must buy.

Last film recommendation for the year. ( rewatch for me) One that more of you ungrateful bastahs should've seen.


The Call (netflix)


Park Shin-hye

Stay safe.

Peace.

2022!

Is this another South K Netflix show? They're killing it.

 

[Gee]

Is this another South K Netflix show? They're killing it.

It's a movie, actually. The lead is a popular Korean actress.

She's also in #Alive and it's on Netflix too.

ROTK on ps2 was excellent!

Thanks. I'll definitely watch this. The South Korean genre shows and movies on Netflix have all really been fun to watch: Kingdom, Train to Busan, Home Sweet Home, Hellbound, Squid Game, and Alive have all been anywhere from good to excellent.

Batgirl will be a 2022 release according to the director’s Instagram story:

[kguillou]

Happy New Years my Hype friends. I wish all of you a much much better 2022 of good heath, happiness, healing and a whole heap of awesome genre films we can discuss on here.

 

[flickchick85]

Happy New Year all!

Hope 2022 brings y'all some great things and good health.

 

[Detective Conan]

Which 2022 Movie Becomes The Next Billon Dollar Movie?

 

[Detective Conan]

The new Flash spoilers out today are going to piss off Snyder fans so much they’ll never recover.

 

[Chip Chipperson]

I’m more than fine with a lot of the stuff they have planned, but if they ever do decide to do another JL movie anytime soon, it will be weird to have certain big characters missing. I’ll give it a chance though as always.

 

[THE WOLF]

Not my ideal choice but I'll keep an open mind. The less snyder stench on the ip, the better

 

[MbJ]

Yeah knew something like this was likely coming when Sarnoff did that press release saying Flash would clarify the status of the Justice League going forward.

Spoiler

Even if Supergirl takes Superman's place in the League tho (which I'm fine with) I hope there's still a chance for Cavill to return in some capacity someday.

 

[brandeezy89]

Find it funny that most people who are outraged about this are more concerned about certain DC characters than if the movie is good or not.

 

[Black Narcissus]

Happy new year! May 2022 be good to us all.

Quick thoughts.

Virginie Efira! What a great and brave actress. This woman runs circles around on a bunch of american/british actresses, easily. She is sexy as hell too.

Benedetta has my favorite depiction Jesus on film so far! A great rewatch. Paul Verhoeven embraces the religious schlock, while not trying to be a preacher about it. Lesbian nuns never felt so right. Man, the lesbian sub genre has truly been on fire these past few years, all modern classics imo:

Benedetta
Blue is The warmest Color
The Handmaiden

Recent flash news/rumors. Eh, I'm more than fine with it. Bald Cavill and Batfleck were gone long ago. Still, we gotta wait and see how it plays out. A possibility of new JL down the road excites me a lot. I'm also bummed we never got to see Guillermo Del Toro's JLD. He spoke about that project again recently, it sounded great.


Also, one more to add to my Japanese whiskey collection. This one is kinda hard to get in my area, but managed to get it online, and now the wait begins.
