Hey guys! Did an orchestral version of the TWP theme a couple weeks back, have a listen? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Ug_1NM6bGhQ.html Also, more on topic, I'm not sure what the best or worst movie of 2017 is objectively, but *Logan Lucky* is the most underrated film I saw this year. Adam Driver and Daniel Craig were incredible.
Santa is in possession of the soul gem. he used the power of the "Tesseract sack" to transmute the soul stone into Rudolf's nose. he dies in the MCU during infinity war. (cannon)
As much as I love that movie and as sad as it is to say it, maybe it is better if we wait a bit longer for another sequel. It doesn't necessarily have to have Ford and friends in it again.
Thanks for a truly amazing Podcast year! You're the reason why i love Mondays so much (this and it being my day off). Makes me miss living in San Remo heaps as well. Good job mates and here's to a great 2018!
Favorite movies so far this year in particular order were Blade Runner 2049, Good Time, It Comes at Night, Dunkirk, Logan, Mother, Baby Driver, Get Out, Raw, GOTG VOL 2, Spiderman, Colossal, Okja, Thor, John Wick 2, and Koe no Katachi. Can't wait to watch Three Billboards and Shape of Water. Faves in the TV catalogue are Nirvanna the Band the Show, Mr Robot Season 3, Mindhunter, American Gods, American Vandal and Legion. Very disappointed at season 7 of GOT. Worst movies so far IMO are Transformers, Emoji, Justice League, Wonder Woman, War for the Planet of the Apes, Kingsman the Golden Circle, Pirates, Boss Baby and Bye Bye Man.
Best Movie: The Last Jedi Worst Movie: The Last Jedi Wrap your brain around that also underappreciated: Free Fire. It's really good, yall should check it out
Here's to you, 2017 in film. And here's to you, *_Unknown Higher-up Producer Who Like Really Likes Country Road by John Denver And Forced Into Everything This Year._* Like Alien: Covenant, Logan Lucky, Kingsman 2 and an Apple Home ad campaign. Cheers to you!!!
clariola Personally I loved Homecoming but I could understand why you found it boring... do you think that’s because of the quality of the film tho or because it’s the 6th spider man film in recent memory??
Extreme Toast No, i actually think the quality was good. The only thing I really didnt like was his iron-man like suit. Everything else I thought was just... fine. It might be Spider Man fatigue.
Yeah i kinda agree. They seemed to find a way to take the suit away from him in the final fight because its OP but now its going to make absolutely no sense if he doesnt use it
Big Ben Yeah honestly I could see it being cool in Infinity war where presumably he’s gonna need it to stand a chance, but when his suit can do so much I feel it’s gonna bring down any future solo movies he has. I hope I’m wrong but we’ll see.
I think the first 5 minutes of Avengers: Infinity War will take off right where Thor: Ragnarok ended and Thanos will kill most of the asgardians and/or Loki. #StayTuned
You guys should check out The Killing of a Sacred Deer. Absurdist films aren't normally my thing, but there's an incredible scene where Colin Farrell makes himself dizzy and plays Russian roulette with his family. It's A+ material.
Uh oh. "Worst Movies of 2017." I can see the comment section already. "It's the Last Jedi for sure! That movie raped my childhood! Disney ruined Star Wars!" I mean, I'd rather hope that's not what happens but......we'll see I suppose. I just have a bad feeling about this. Thankfully there's a nice podcast here to cheer me up.
The only comment I've ever valued about "____ ruined my childhood" is that Bill Cosby being a bad person ruined their childhood. I can still watch A New Hope without The Last Jedi affecting it but I can't watch Fat Albert without being reminded that it was created by a bad person and it souring any enjoyment.
Interesting to watch old episodes in hindsight. Like that rumour about the Han Solo actor being unable to act and the script Is unworkable. now that solo is out, i think it’s pretty fun movie and Alden did a great job. And now instead of schrodingers bat, we have schrodingers superman.
I think if the Solo movie fails spectacularly at the box office, then Disney will seriously start to consider replacing Kathleen Kennedy. With all of the chaos going on behind the scenes of the new Star Wars movies, it seems like she's the common denominator in all of it. Oh yeah, and I was reasonably happy with Rogue One when it came out, for many of the exact same reasons that people criticized it (for featuring too much stuff that we've already seen... which was exactly what I wanted to see). However, I have found that my esteem for the film has only grown over the last year. I have a feeling that Rogue One will age the best over time, compared to TFA and TLJ.
Bright is fine. It's not great, teeters on good, but I'd settle for fine. If it were a miniseries it'd not feel so rushed. Critics saying it's worst of 2017 are either out of their minds or looking for clicks. I bet on the latter.
I cannot believe some people including yourselves still don't understand the backlash on TLJ. It's not because it was 'different', it's because it was very, very bad storytelling. Episode 8 comes after Episode 7 and yet the story in Episode 7 was completely discarded in Episode 8. Even Episode 8 as a self contained movie had a lengthy, inconsequential and boring subplot with Finn and Rose, for what I can only speculate as the writer not knowing what to do with the Finn character because this trilogy has little to no direction or story arc to actually tell over the 3 movies. That is very blatantly poor storytelling, and it's quite something that a lot of movie commentators do not realise how poor the storytelling is in this trilogy as a result of TLJ. Storytelling is the most important aspect of a movie undoubtedly. TLJ failed fundamentally as a movie in a trilogy.
I liked bright good enough. I thought the action was good and it was a bit cheesy but it never took me out of it. I don't think it's history needs to be perfectly laid out. Imagine if the whole history of the world was explained and we had to sit through all that exposition.
D FRAG It's lanyard. It's basically those things you wear around your neck with the little clip on tags. You'd see people wearing them at concerts or conventions, or monumental events in human history such as the Justice League Melbourne premiere
I copied this comment from MicoDossun and filled in my own choices because i'm a lazy shit, so here we go: Animated Movie: Lego Batman was fun Best Sequel: Blade Runner 2 Best Reboot: IT was pretty great The Game Was On: Yeah, the Mummy Best Non-sequel: Baby Driver (don't care about Spacey being a creep, its a great movie) Best Horror: IT again Best TV Show: Punisher was pretty great Worst TV Show: GoT season 7 was pretty disappointing, but its Inhumans Underrated/Under The Radar Movie: Does Del Torros new movie count, its that Best Comedy: Something with a lot of jokes, (does Baby Driver count?)

Stop Making: DC-anything Best Movie I haven't seen: Every movie thats not on this list Worst Movie: Tied winners, Geostorm and Justice League (its not TLJ) Best Just a Movie: The Mummy Best Movie: Its probably Blade Runner, but Baby Driver was fucking incredible!!!

Exilion to me it just felt like a super tone deaf attempt at capitalizing about what made the first one good but not actually realizing what it was. The satirical subversive quality was just replaced with more absurd stuff.
I don't use Twitter...i have an account but it was around the time when there was too many social media sites in the uprising. But let me post this here. Wesley Snipes says that there can be only one Blade? What about the guy from "Blade: House of Cthon"? You guys remember that movie right? Starring Sticky Fingaz as blade...is that... Is that his real name??? Wait... this was a TV series pilot... Ooooooooh... Well... Nvm...if they do start a TV series based off blade, hopefully it's better than that pile of Garbage. Yes I watched that whole movie. Also, Robert Downing Jr. Got a chance and look what he became. I think Wesley Snipes should have a shot too... But then again. Rob Downing is burnt out on the on the cinematic universe at his age, can Wesley keep up at his age? And then there's the mention of Blade being British? I don't know about his dialect/accent though. Wikipedia article with 63 references stated that one of the writers stated that Blade/ Eric's dialogue was cliche black guy and they later on made it read as more real. Robert Greenburger mentioned he had alot of growing up to do as a young writer. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blade_(comics) If anyone is interested. I'm sure Disney/Marvel will make the right choice whoever they pick.
I didn't see TF Last Knight. I don't care about those movies anymore. They suck....story wise. I turn my brain off when I watched the last few before. But then again, if ppl keep watching those movies in hopes of getting a rich story/cinematic action based film the franchise will never die.
I just discovered you guys this year one of the highlights of a rather disappointing year. That being said....... Heres my picks that I threw together while I was listening: Best Comic: The Unbelievable Gwenpool is awesome Animated movie: Didn't watch one I usually watch a few, this year nope. Although I heard Coco and The Breadwinner were both pretty good so I might watch one or both of those eventually Best Continuation: its a tie between John Wick 2 and Thor Ragnarok Best Reboot: Spider-man Homecoming Best Movie where the Game was on: This ones tough all the ones you mentioned I didn't see.......I guess Guardians 2 for the Adam name drop Best Original: Baby Driver..... although I do think its mildly overrated, I just didn't watch a lot of movies this year. Best Horror Film: Hate Horror movies but I will probably eventually watch Get Out so it wins before I've even watched it Best TV: Game of Thrones is pretty solid, I want to watch American Gods big Neil Gaiman fan...but big shout out to The Punisher which was awesome till the end which was fine but meh, Ozark was pretty good, and Bojack Horsemen which I thought I hated but gave it another shot and now I really like it. Worst TV: Again this is hard cause I only save my time for good TV usually but Inhumans did look pretty bad, worst show I watched though was probably The Gifted gave it one episode it was pretty bad. Underrated Movie: War for the Planet of the Apes, the title is a little misleading but it has a pretty satisfying ending. If thats not unknown enough I guess Colossal which wasn't great but it was weird and different and I didn't hate it Best Comedy: Probably, Thor or Spider-man but since I've used them already I'll say The Hitman's Body Guard Best Villain: The Vulture, Hella was also pretty good Grey Villain: I've Avoided all those movies except Jared Leto in Blade Runner so.... Overrated Movie: Logan it was ok people are saying its one of the best super hero movies ever I think it's fine but not one of the best Worst Trailer: I haven't seen Molly's Game but I probably wont because it looks like most of the movie is in the trailer Best Trailer: Thor Ragnarok Hulk coming out got me pumped and Thor's reaction was priceless got me really pumped for the movie. CGI Deaged: I didn't watch the movie but the Johnny Depp Deage looked good in the trailer. As far as bad I dont mind the deaging its all better then the CGI Scorpion King in the The Mummy Returns that will haunt me forever. Kid's Movie: Jumanji 2 if its a kid's movie Hated Actor: I really don't like Adam Driver's Kylo Ren he's an awful villain he's supposed to be crazy powerful and yet he just keeps losing his shit and also just losing. I don't fear him really at all and that mono-tone now my shirts off bullshit. It might not be his fault but I just really feel people are looking for reasons to like Kylo Ren when he hasn't given you any reason to like him. Worst Special Effect: Baywatch Fire on boat, I was fine with it cause I know Baywatch is there to say "look good looking people in swim wear!" Which I enjoyed. Best Hair and Worst hair: I don't really care or notice Biggest Disappointment: Last Jedi......it would take too long to go into detail about this. I'm a huge Star Wars fan and its just bad. Series they need to stop making: Planet of the Apes great ending don't sully it with another sequel, prequel series just leave it alone. Also Star wars the last one sucked, Han Solo movie nobody wanted looks like its gonna fail they need to stop or at least slow down one a year is way too much. Best Movie I haven't seen: Get Out, Wonder Woman, Dunkirk Worst Movie: Last Jedi (seriously I really didn't like much about this movie) Blade Runner it was way too long I'll never watch it again. Best Just a Movie: T2: Trainspotting Best Movie: I can't decide but its between John Wick 2, Spider-man Homecoming, Thor Ragnarok Sorry they are all above but they really are the best 3 Ok I didn't think it would take that long you guys did a lot of categories I'm stopping here as now I realize no one will read this but it was more for me anyway
