Re: Avengers: Endgame (April 26th, 2019)

I liked but did not Love the first John Wick the first time I saw it. I thought it was a very good action / revenge film until it had about 20 min left.. Then I thought it got goofy and forgot what kind of film it was.

JW2 was good at times but the action was a bit goofy with the fact that nobody would shoot at JW. They would just run up to him and get shot. I did not think it was as good as the first.

JW3 while light on plot is the most consistent of the three IMO. The action is a blast in this one. All very different.. Not the same thing over and over. Basically this movie is about 2 hours of non stop action and I never got tired of it.

I had a blast. It also had two of the actors from the two Raid film which are two of my all time fav action movies so it was great to see them in this film.

If you have no love for the JW character I don't think this film will win you over. But man the action in this.. Wow. I must have laughed three or four times at how brutal some of the violence was.



That sounds about right.

The raid dudes are in it, cool.

I hope they’re put to better use than their roles in The Force Awakens lol

Screw it i’ll rent 2 today and then go see 3 this weekend you convinced me.

But I have a feeling JW3 will suffer from the super strict stunt choreography timing that will just make everything look like people just waiting for their turn to fight. That’s the problem with martial art movies the strict timing ruins the authenticity. It might be technically impressive in technique but ruins any chance of it feeling organic.

I don’t know lets see lol

Oh it suffers a from that.. But not as bad as JW2 did. JW2 was the worst offender for sure.

3 has it but not as bad. That is too say I was never distracted by it in this like I was in JW2.

This film is worth seeing for Halle Berry's dogs alone.

Oh and JW's first kill in the movie.. That may be worth the price of admission also.



Oh yeah and I watched this movie with a splitting headache and still enjoyed the hell out of it. I kept thinking how much I would really be enjoying the film if my head didn't start pounding 5 min before the film started.

Halle Berry is attractive. Is it wrong that I wish she did skin flicks instead of regular movies. Usually her acting isn't very good.

She’s in her 50’s and looks amazing, that Hollywood life!


Nope. It wasn’t.

I think that’s right before he kills Thanos.

It just dawned on me that the family friendly fluff MCU series has a movie where cold blooded murder involving a decapitation happens ON SCREEN IN FULL VIEW BY A SUPERHERO, and it’s shown TWICE!!

Let me repeat that A SUPERHERO from a family friendly franchise this isn’t the serious DCEU we’re talking about here but an MCU superhero performs cold blooded murder involving full on view decapitation and it’s shown not ONCE but TWICE and CLOSEUP!

lulz

I know!! AND has a prolonged sequence where two heroes are fighting to see who gets to successfully commit *suicide* ending with the female hero throwing herself off a cliff while her partner weeps! :horror

R-rated Uncle Bob's sacrifice wasn't nearly as agonizing, lol.
 
Re: Avengers: Endgame (April 26th, 2019)

I have to say the " We're ok. You can rest now" line was so sad but perfect since Tony was never the same after the first Avengers film. And although I'm not a fan of IM3 and AOU, those films did a great job showing the PTSD Tony suffered as a result of the New York battle, to the point that it became an obsession almost for him to build or create some kind of contingency plan. I think his sacrificed was earned, and it made sense for him to be the one to do it, as the end of his arc. The fact that they were able to bring back the "I am iron man" line from the first MCU film was perfect, without coming across as fan service.

Yep, totally agree. Tony's arc concluded perfectly as did skinny Steve's who said "I don't like bullies, no matter where they're from" way back when.

At least with Superman’s neck break it was to stop a full strength angry homicidal Zod from killing a family right there and then real time! Brutal yes but certainly justifiable.

With Thor like Clown had previously said one could almost feel sympathy for farmer Thanos laying there on the ground incapacitated and being bullied to submission helpless outnumbered injured and weak.

Nope here comes Thor swinging his mighty axe in a rage of Punisher punishment vengeance execution! :horror

Holy crap lol

Russo’s said to Snyder, hold our beers lol

RDJ didn’t want to return to film that.

Wow Thanos was literally in the same position as Dooku wasn't he and Thor took him out without any Dark Side prompting!

Finally planning on seeing this again tonight.

Now that EG is old news, I think I'll miss the excited crowds like in my first viewing.

Re: Avengers: Endgame (April 26th, 2019)

To be fair to Thor, he may have been suffering from some kind of PTSD, because after he decapitated Thanos, he said, "I went for the head" , and the way he said it and the way he looked it wasn't meant to be heroic, humorous, or badass. He then walks away defeated, broken, and ready to eat lots of carbs and ice cream to hide his pain. ;_; In my theater people laughed when he said , "I went for the head." I didn't get the humor. People are dumb. :dunno
