I tried, all I got what was this



I think they were confusing it with what the FBI did to their home computers.

Saw it today...cool dinosaurs, but bad story

Didn't think it was that bad, I liked it

 

[Khev]

I will admit that AOU requires a higher level of sophistication and brain activity for it to be fully appreciated.

Hence why Khev and I enjoyed it very much.

There you go.

Saw JW for a third time in IMAX today. Theater was more crowded at 4:00 pm then it was when I saw it on opening day. It'll be interesting to see what the final tally is. Such a fun movie.

One cool thing I noticed that I haven't seen mentioned before was during the tracking implant scene when blood drips onto Hamada's wrist the first drop hits and runs down the front of his wrist. Then he looks up and another drop hits in almost the exact same place and runs down the back of his wrist. I figured it had to be a deliberate reference to Malcolm's Chaos Theory demonstration.

You could say that's a bit of a theme of the movie itself. Dinos break out of a park and instead of the T-Rex and Raptors being the "bad guys" the water runs the opposite direction this time and they end up helping the heroes.

 

[DiFabio]

The T-Rex was a good guy in the first one too. It ate the slimey lawyer and saved Grant and the gang at the end. It did nothing wrong.

 

[Khev]

The T-Rex was a good guy in the first one too.

Right.

 

[DiFabio]

It was, I listed the reasons! It was a real hero, even had triumphant music in the end and everything!


The only time the T-Rex was bad in these movies was in Lost World. Two of them ****ing eat poor Eddie Carr, who was a hero in the film and saved everyone, including dinosaurs.

FR is not the greatest action movie of the last 5 years.

Just because there were stuntman on sticks using practical effects does it automatically make it the best action movie.

Based on pure action, TWS is the best action movie of the last 5 years.

The car stunts were not equal to the hand to hand combat on display in TWS.

People complain about the MCU having weak villains, IJ from FR would fit in perfectly then in the MCU.

What did he do again that stood out, I don't remember.

Oh that's right, he GAVE Up after his prized wife died.

Last we saw of him he was doing nothing, had Furiosa and Max not returned he was last shown doing absolutely nothing other than just sitting there with his bored Warboys.

Alright, Alright! Mad Max is not the greatest action movie ever made.

Age of Ultron is still a mediocre blockbuster though. hate on FR if you want,that's fine, but do NOT deny how mediocre Ultron was! I will not stand for it!

(in all seriousness Age of Ultron plays out exactly like a Transformers movie, same humor and everything)
(the action on both movies is almost the same,closed up CGI everywhere )

 

[jye4ever]

Hopefully next one they include human DNA in the dinos. Would be great to hear them talk.

Rex tried to eat the kids, tried to eat Malcolm, did eat Gennaro, tried to eat Ellie, Muldoon, and Malcolm (again) and then when it had six warm bodies to munch on at the end he picked the closest one which happened to be a raptor and through sheer luck allowed the humans to escape. You've been watching MOS too much if you think that makes him a hero.

 

[Khev]

I had a fun week with dinos. Looking forward to catching The Terminator (original) on Wednesday and then hopefully Fury Road one last time.

I enjoyed FR, will buy on BR.

But I walked out of JW/AOU with a smile.

JW surprised me and also had a great heroic ending with freaking dinosaurs! SMILE!

AOU had great scenes with Vision and there were colorful action scenes that were recreations of comic books that I've been waiting to see for what felt like an eternity. SMILE!

FR I walked out thinking about Mel Gibson and RW and what a weak villain IJ was. He was great looking and sounding, but a weak villain nonetheless. NO SMILE! Hell, after the 1st viewing I didn't even like it. It took a 2nd viewing to start enjoying it.

 

[DiFabio]

The T-Rex was just testing everyone! It was trying to thrill Lexi and Tim by giving them a little scare. It was a tourist attraction bro. It made up for all the scares by saving them from the raptors in the end. A true hero!

If eating Gennaro wasn't proof of it's heroics, then I don't know what to say.

 

[jye4ever]

Would've been cool if at the end of JW one of the kids goes to give the T-Rex a high five and he eats the kid.

 

[a-dev]

I have pretty much made this same argument pertaining to a certain something else, I shall not name it.

 

[DiFabio]

Hell, after the 1st viewing I didn't even like it. It took a 2nd viewing to start enjoying it.

Hell, you probably still don't even like it. You just don't want your Sideshowfreak pals to lookin' at you funny.

Be honest Jye.
