[crows]

the drawing they still look pretty angry... is Paul Feig's future a lie?

Gotta agree with Feige's article. Richard Pryor, Woody Allen, Louis CK, Ricky Gervais, Eddie Murphy, Dave Chapelle, all overrated hacks.

Good thing you left George Carlin off your list.

If the dude thinks men aren't funny, how is it better for a man to direct women to be funny?

(without men there would be no wars, no famine, no oppression, no crime) take men out and the world becomes an utopia

I know this is a joke but that's completely not the case actually, having two parents helps cleanse the gene pool. Without males, humanity would cease to evolve making it even easier for parasites and disease to kill us off. There's a damned good reason only a handful of species reproduce asexually.

I'm going to try to see the Shallows before it leaves theaters. This weekend might be the last opportunity to catch it on a good screen.

Do it!

I refuse to watch this movie... Nothing in it appeals to me and the constant bashing of fans by cast and crew really sealed the deal for me...

I have a friend that's a big cinephile and movie reviewer for NPR, and she hit the nail in the head:

The kind of "feminism" presented in this article pisses me off. If you really are a feminist it is -- to use the article's language -- your "obligation" to bypass "Ghostbusters," which does nothing to empower women or even give us interesting female characters that step out of stereotypes. Giving money to "Ghostbusters" only encourages Hollywood to make formulaic, unimaginative films that keep women in limited roles. If "Ghostbusters" is a financial success it will simply make a lot of old, white men in executive offices smile and fill their pockets with cash. I will opt to buy my ticket for "The Infiltrator," which shows that women behind the screen lead to having better, stronger, and more interesting women on the screen.

Based on what Kuzeh posted, I will see it, kuzeh it's Kuzeh!

Hear hear, your friend is completely right, I was sure the cognitive dissonance in their """progressive""" movie would finally make the SJW crowd short circuit out of that paradox, but nope, they just bypassed it

Funny enough I just realized that my favorite 2015 movies were Fury Road and Sicario, both of them starred women in fantastic female characters.

But no one saw those, those didn't bash men, those didn't need retarded controversy to stand on 2 legs cause the movies weren't enough, so I guess those don't count.

Hear hear.

I was replying to Kuzeh but you replied first I edited my post.

A bit of eye candy for y'all ...

I'll admit. That's funny. But, probably not in the way they intended.

Anyways, I have stuck with my argument that I would have been more supportive of this movie had it been a sequel...even WITH this cast. The fact that it's a reboot is what I don't like. But that argument is apparently not good enough for the supporters and continually labeled as irrelevant. They can stick with the argument that it's all about the cast being women, but it just does not look or feel funny to me.

Last funny movie I saw....

Tucker and Dale VS Evil.

LOVE that movie. I just started it one night because I couldn't find anything to watch on TV and randomly picked this out on netflix.

[jye4ever]

I'm surprised with Japan's history with China that China even allows any of the SONY movies to play there.

They hate each other.

 

[EVILFACE]

4.1 on IMDB.

haters are serious!

 

[jye4ever]

What is BvS?

-4.1

 

[Eamon]

Haven't bothered to look at the replies as I was in London today.

This is some good marketing I think.

 

[EVILFACE]

Yup, avatar is spot on!

oh and BvS is a solid 7.0
