What's The Last Movie You Watched? - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Part 31

[Aesop Rocks]

10/10 - Personally, this is Anderson's best film since The Life Aquatic. Anderson's ability to visually please the viewer while telling a completely solid story still holds up in this film; with an immense list of characters and wonderfully talented people cast in their behalf. I've really only known Fiennes as Voldemort (I still haven't seen Schinder's List, sorry ), but I enjoyed every moment with him. Saoirse Ronan is as elegant as ever in this film, too. Newcomer Tony Revolori especially shined bright in the movie as the silent but sweet Lobby Boy, Zero.

Oh yeah, and having Edward Norton, Jeff Goldblum, Owen Wilson, Bill Murray, and William DaFoe in the movie made everything so greater than everything already was. Adrian Brody even managed to surprise me as an especially sinister yet idiotic villain.

Justice League: War was so far out of the norm for me I was genuinely shocked at how far it deviated from the older (better) animated movies.

That's because it's based on the Nu52. Which is like the bastard step child of the 90s and silver age.

90's became awesome when Grant Morrison started doing Justice League! Boo Fifty Poo never became awesome.

 

[The Endless]

lol true. The 90s had some gems. The Nu52 doesn't.

 

[psylockolussus]

The Devil Wears Prada

 

[NDX]

The Toxic Avenger. Because **** yeah.

such as justice league DOOM?[which I am watching now]

I don't know how it compares. I haven't seen ALL of the old JL movies, not even the more recent ones from the pre-52 reboot.

I know, and it's obvious. Painfully so. Wonder Woman was called a **** or something like that, Batman and Superman are both collosal ***** and Green Lantern is so arrogant and sure of himself it should have been a parody.

Destruction or not (Because I'm sure a militant homicidal maniac would love to move away from away from a populated area and engage in Queensbury Rules gentlemanly fisticuffs on the moon) Superman in MOS was absolutely Superman, he spent his whole life looking for people to save.

This disgrace was actively causing destruction, and toying with GL and Batman like a psychopath. Punching them into buildings and crowded areas!!!! That's Darkseid.

It's truly sad what DC has done with the new 52 Superman, and its the reason I've avoided reading any stories with Supes (the only exception is the Throne of Atlantis arc and mercifully in there, he resembled the actual character). I'm hoping it changes soon.

I'm inclined to agree. The Superman of "War" felt less like a hero, even an inexperienced one, and more like a thug who was just out there fighting for the Hell of it because smashing stuff is always fun; it really felt like he just didn't care who he hurt, and the people of Metropolis were lucky that he happened to be hitting Parademons.

Oh yes, that reminds me of Shazzam and how goofy that guy was.
