    Best Christopher Nolan Movie?

    Man of Steel was okay, BvS was fucking awful, and Justice League only marginally better than BvS. He has made great movies that suit his style. He's not a completely incompetent director. It's like when Bendis takes a character and just does whatever the hell he wants with the character and everyone gets super fucking mad. Yes, he's a good writer, but he's also stubborn as hell sometimes. And yes, I understand what he's saying but it doesn't quite jive with the murderous Batman in BvS. It just doesn't. The Batman of the comics doesn't kill necessarily out of a moral code completely right? That idea has been explored to death. It comes down to the fact that he's not quite right in the head and starting to murder people like the Punisher would not do well for his sanity (aren't they exploring that concept right now with a Punisher Batman from the dark universe or whatever?).
  2. Hello MT. I see you there, my doppelganger. The Dark Knight. Easy. Captain Marvel was good. The Dark Knight was fucking incredible. Avengers Infinity War. Little closer but Infinity War is just better. Winter Soldier. Now this SERIOUSLY gave me pause. I still haven't made my mind up completely but honestly, Winter Solider is a fucking fantastic movie. For me it was the point where the MCU said hey, we can do more than typical capeshit. This movie was a sort of political thriller kind of movie hiding as a superhero movie. Spider-Man Homecoming. Spider-Man enters the MCU with a bang. Guardians goes for a not as good second outing (I did still love it though and I give them fucking tons of points for taking on something as fucking weird as Ego and nailing it).

    Best Martin Scorsese Movie

    At that point, I'd only seen him in Titanic and Catch Me If You Can (oh and Romeo+Juliet...fuck me I almost forgot that ). Catch Me If You Can redeemed him somewhat but The Departed pushed him into the fucking stratosphere for me.

    Best Martin Scorsese Movie

    Didn't need to even see what else what there. The Departed is one of my favorite movies of all time. Made me love Leonardo DiCaprio.

    Best Christopher Nolan Movie?

    That's Goyer more than it is Nolan, I think. That and Zack Snyder. Have you ever read or listened to anything that idiot says? In case you were under the illusion he learned something from the shitty DC movies he made: https://comicbook.com/dc/2019/03/24/superman-batman-kill-dawn-of-justice-man-of-steel-zack-snyder/

    [Comics General]

    Yes that run was fucking fantastic. Rick Remender is general is really good. Also anything by Hickman. Just shut up and read it.

    Ultimate Travel Wishlist

    What are the places you want to travel to the most in your lifetime and why? Pick as many or few as you want! So? I've done a Euro tour and now I want to go back for more. ? Athens, Greece - Greek history is so cool and I really want to see all the sites Versailles, France - We've been to Paris now but I want to see something different in France and there is apparently a lot of cool stuff in Versailles to see. Florence and Venice?, Italy - Venice is full of history and all the roads are water so yeah. That would be amazing to see. Florence also has a lot of history to see. Amsterdam, Netherlands - Always wanted to go and now I've got 2 friends there (Mia and George!). ? Would definitely like to see Japan? too. That's it off the top of my head right now?. I'd like to see the sights in Egypt but I'm actually kind of unsure about safety there after all the recent events. Thanks to Betty for letting me steal her topic.
  11. No kidding. Still...Winter Solider is like...the perfect MCU movie. Had to do it. Captain Marvel. Watchmen was good but it was Zack Snyder so it wasn't great. The Dark Knight. Could probably win the whole thing tbh. Infinity War. Another easy one unfortunately. Sorry Black Panther. Wonder Woman. This gave me pause for a moment because I really do love the first X-Men but Wonder Woman is a better movie. It benefits from a lot of learning how to make comic book movies. Guardians. Sorry Kingsman. Spider-Man: Homecoming. I'm webhead. I'm going to keep voting for Spider-Man. If the TMNT win, I won't be upset though. Guardians 2. Easy. MiB was good but not as good as Guardians 2.

    Best Robert Zemeckis Movie?

    Back to the Future is just too god damn good. Close second for me is a tie between Roger Rabbit and Cast Away.

    Game of Thrones [SPOILERS]

    Thanks. That's what I'm lookin for. I'll have to watch this with Jovanna before the premiere.

    Best Christopher Nolan Movie?

    There's really no wrong answer here but yeah, it's not surprising TDK is winning.

    Dexter [SPOILERS]

    Nothing has been terrible so far. Last season was a bit boring but @Deimos says Season 6 is supposed to be good and judging by the people in it, I am looking forward to it. Apparently it's a fucking quick drop after this though.

    Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2

    Bought the first one for 5 bucks on the Humble Store. It's gonna have to wait until after DMC5 though. I was surprisingly able to install and play with the patch in Linux using Steam's new compatibility stuff. Nice.

    Dexter [SPOILERS]

    I assume I'll think it's a steaming pile of shit like everyone else, but I will be sure to drop a line.

    Best John Carpenter Movie?

    Side note: John Carpenter really likes Kurt Russel. I have to say, I don't see anything wrong with that.
  19. V for Vendetta is fuckin legit. I can't even be mad tbh.
  20. We're just on the edge of hitting 1000 posts total for the forum today! Weekend went into a bit of a slump but I think we can do it. Also if you have any friends you think might like posting, invite them over! Since we're keeping things laid back over here, I think it'll be a lot more welcoming to newbs and normies (well somewhat ). LET'S DO THIS.

    Destiny 2

    Ah nice. I'd probably wait and see what comes next before I invested in anything tbh. No one is really playing right now.

    [TV General]

    You either love the show for what it is or expect something else and hate it. There's a certain point where I realized it was just fucking fun to watch the show. They finished the "real" story with Season 5 and it's just hijinks after that. You gotta have fun with it. Sam and Dean are probably the 2 funnest people to watch on TV. Seriously. Even the bad seasons, I just enjoy the show for what it is.
