Prime’s T-800

I’m too stupid to point out which piston goes into which exhaust pipe, but looks good to me!

I’m sure it’ll get nitpicked to death by the “experts”, but I think it looks good too. I’m looking forward to more pics.

That’s beautiful!

The whole Hush line looks great. Poison Ivy’s face is gorgeous. I really wish they had Huntress there too.

What does Prime usually charge?

Agreed they are knocking that hush line out off the park!

Aquaman has some great looking nips.

If Ivy is only $1,000 I would be thrilled. I think that base is going to add two or three hundred.

Didn’t know aqua man had nipple rings!

I finally saw Justice League this weekend. I actually watched it twice because I couldn't remember much after the first viewing. It's a difficult movie for me to review. If I take it as a stand alone film and consider it just as entertainment, then it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. However, taking into consideration how it's supposed to continue from the other films and looking at it as a DC fan...I go back and forth between disappointment for all the lost opportunities that would have made the film better and disgust at how they treated the characters overall.

The Good:

--Superman kicking everyone's *****. I could watch that **** on repeat for an hour.
--Pretty much every scene with Cavill if I ignore what they did to his face.
--Batman's line "He's more human than I am" line about Superman. It was one line, but it was the best Batman moment Batfleck's had and was 100% true to the character.

The Bad:

--Superman's upper lip
--The sketchy CGI for everything: Cavill's face, Steppenwolf, and Cyborg's bobble head were horrible
--Lame jokes: I think there were two or three parts that I laughed, but the rest made me embarrassed for the actors being made to say those lines.
--Aquaman: I like Mamoa. He was awesome in Conan and Game of Thrones, but he's not ****ing Aquaman. Not only did they **** up the character with all their stupid "Woooo! **** yeah!" ******** and parademon surfing into a splash page pose, but all I could think of every time he was on screen was that I wish he'd been cast as Lobo instead.
--Batman: Ugh. I don't think I'm going to waste my time typing about him. Let's just say I actually preferred murder-happy Batfleck in BvS over comic relief Batfleck. Such a waste...
--Lois Lane: Ugh again. I don't like her as Lois, and though I understand why they had her in this film, I still got irritated when she was on screen.
--Steppenwolf: Stupid design + **** CGI + generic "take over the world" plan = Forgettable villain
--Every character in the film that felt like it was ok to shout someone's secret identity while in public. It ****ing happens in all of these new DC films and it's ****ing ridiculous. Lois Lane shouts out "Clark" to Superman in front of the cops in MOS and JL, Maquaman Randy Savage calls Bruce Batman in front of the ****ing villagers, Flash can't keep his mouth shut when the Bat-signal goes up, etc.

I'm starting to get mad again as I type all this so I should probably stop or this will turn into a full on rant. I will say that this is easier to watch again than BvS. I think I'd rank the new DC films: MOS, WW, JL, BvS, SS.

i still haven't taken the plunge... each viewing of the latest DC run has me more and more less interested in watching. i tried watching bvs the other day on HBO figuring i'd give it another shot... it was as bad as i remembered it! i'll prolly give in and catch JL when it comes out on redbox or hbo... but won't have much expectations when i do.

I wanted to do a DC film marathon, but I don't think I could get through all of them in one sitting. Seeing Cavill as more "super" in JL did make me want to watch MOS again though. As much as I want a DC reboot, I don't want them to get rid of Cavill. I've even warmed up to Gadot as Wonder Woman so I wouldn't mind if they kept her too, and Fisher was good as Cyborg so he can stay, but everyone else can be replaced as far as I'm concerned.

Glad to hear you finally got to it, Zod.

I stand by my review and say that Justice League is a 1/5 movie for me. Like I said, it's nowhere near as offensive as BvS and SS but nothing to write home about either. The best thing about it is that they finally got Superman as close as he should have been characterized in the first place but at the cost of pointlessly killing him in the prior movie, which as you can see went totally nowhere. Yet again, each DCEU movie is an apology for the previous film but that won't fix anything at this point, the damage has long been done.

If this movie was made in 1995 it would have been awesome because it's shallow yet harmless but as stands, it's still yet another DC film that misses the mark. At the end of the day, I'm glad I saw it to get it over with it since by now I've already forgotten what the heck happened- it's pure junk food and I didn't became a lifelong DC fan because I wanted empty calories.

I saw it once in the theatres with my kids and that was enough for me. But then my kids wanted to watch it again a few weekends ago, so we streamed it on Kodi. It did not get better with the 2nd viewing, which really bothers me because Batman is my #1 comic book hero. I even caught myself falling asleep during it.

You and me both.

I didn't liked this Batman. He isn't 10 steps ahead of anyone, and he says "Jesus" and "Damn" a lot, which I don't think is very Batman-ny. Affleck moves his arms and body a lot when he's in the suit without the cowl, when I always imagined Batman being really statue-esque in his body mannerisms due to how much self control he has. He speaks like he's negotiating rather than with conviction. Nitpicks sure, and I don't think it's Affleck's fault. I love how the suit is finally grey in a live action movie and Affleck has the right build for the character, it's just that the writing in these movies will never do him any justice.

When you take the film as part of a trilogy with MOS and BvS, you really see how they ****ed things up. The characters change from film to film, and the overall storyline changes to the point that you realize how many bits and pieces didn't matter in the long run. I don't think keeping Snyder would have made too much of a difference either. There may have been a better payoff to see Superman in the black suit controlled by Darkseid, but the **** story with **** characters would still be a **** story with **** characters. In the end, I'm still disappointed with what WB is doing with the license, and I'm not excited for any other films they have planned--which absolutely kills me.

Finally got my hot water tank replaced for less than the price of a Prime 1/3 statue. Paying for adult things is dumb, but I don't like washing my junk with cold water.
