Yeah the Justice League thing sounds about right. I heard The Flash even makes a brief appearance in Batman (not the one from the TV show).

Watched BvS last night. I thought it was fairly good overall but it was a bit too long. Could of cut about 30 mins out. Affleck did a great job acting as Bruce Wayne/Batman.

That's nice to hear. I was worried Affleck would mess it up.

I saw The Hateful Eight yesterday. Pretty good, but I think I like most of his previous movies more like Django Unchained, Kill Bill, Pulp Fiction, etc. But I think I enjoyed it more than Reservoir Dogs and definitely more than Death Proof. I'm not sure about Inglorious Basterds, though...I never even bother to rank or compare that one because it had such an awesome premise but needed more action and savage moments.

by **blivvy** Mon Apr 04, 2016 6:47 pm

Affleck has said that he is working on a story for a new Batman movie. If that does happen, it could turn out to be something really great. Maybe even better than The Dark Knight.

Spoiler:

I thought same about The Hateful Eight. Started off really good and went downhill from there. Pulp Fiction and the Kill Bill movies are my favourites from Tarantino.

Not sure what to make of the trailer for the new Ghostbusters movie. I was kinda disappointed tbh.

Haha very true! Those are probably my two favorites as well. That scene where Samuel Jackson describes killing/sexually assaulting the general's son was disgusting. That movie had really weird moments.

Has anyone seen Rogue One yet? I want to go see it sometime. Seems to have gotten fairly positive reviews so far.

by **Wonko the Sane** Sun Dec 18, 2016 6:56 pm

I wasn't planning on rushing out to see it. I might not even go to see it in the theater to be honest; I might just wait until I can watch it at home. No lines, no screaming kids, and way better popcorn. Eating

I was worried about spoilers in the last one so I went to see it in the theater as soon as I could. The problem is, the theater near me was really nice once but not so much anymore. I don't know what it's like in other countries, but I've heard that theaters here make almost nothing off the sale of the ticket itself and, instead, rely on snacks and popcorn sales to stay in business. And with everyone being on a bit of a health craze as of late, I'm guessing snack sales have dropped off sharply. Might explain the sticky floors in the theater I went to. Probably can't afford more than one cleaning per week. Shrug

by **Theicecreaman** Mon Dec 19, 2016 10:57 pm

I'm going to see it on Friday. I figure it'll be an enjoyable movie.

by **blivvy** Tue Dec 20, 2016 4:48 pm

Well let us know what you thought of it.

Another movie that looks interesting is Passengers. I like Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt too so yea, I think I would enjoy it.

by **Wonko the Sane** Thu Dec 22, 2016 9:29 am

Passengers does look interesting and you're right, they're both pretty good actors. I think I'll add that one to my list.

Well just watched Rogue One and unfortunately I have to say to u Wonks, you may just have to make a trip to your local theatre cause it was so damn good Smile

Don't wanna give anything away but I will say that if you preferred the original trilogy, ur gonna love this. So many epic battles and even space battles. They actually could of called this the Battlefront movie heh.

by **Theicecreaman** Thu Dec 22, 2016 7:31 pm

That's good to hear--I'm going to see it tomorrow.

by **blivvy** Mon Jan 02, 2017 6:48 pm

RIP Carrie Fisher. At least she got to finish all of her scenes for Episode VIII before she passed away. Sad

by **Wonko the Sane** Mon Jan 02, 2017 10:03 pm

Yeah that was very sad news Sad

It's even worse that her mom died like 2 days later

by **blivvy** Mon Jan 23, 2017 5:27 pm

Well looks like Episode VIII has an official title.

The Last Jedi.

That ominous sounding title actually makes me pretty excited to see it. But remember that they're following the whole trilogy pattern thing, or at least they seem to be. That would make this an Empire Strikes Back style movie wouldn't it? I guess that's reason enough to be excited since that's a lot of people's favorite movie.

by **Wonko the Sane** Fri Feb 03, 2017 5:06 am

So um... this.

by **blivvy** Fri Feb 03, 2017 11:41 am

Oh man, From His Nap is gonna be epic. You can just tell from the title alone.

by **Wonko the Sane** Fri Feb 03, 2017 7:03 pm

I know right? I'm even more excited for the whole trilogy now that all the titles are out.

Someone apparently saw them filming the third one and leaked this:

by **Wonko the Sane** Wed Apr 19, 2017 7:50 pm

Nope nope, not gonna watch it. Must resist! Zombie Tired

I've recently had a couple movies I was excited about spoiled by overly-revealing trailers and I'm not gonna let that happen anymore. I've sworn off trailers entirely!

by **Theicecreaman** Thu Apr 20, 2017 9:15 pm

I'm going to hold off on watching it too.

In the meanwhile, I'm psyched for this one:

Drooling

by **Wonko the Sane** Tue Apr 25, 2017 8:28 pm

Hah, there's some really good recut trailers out there.
