Sad to see what Labyrinth and Dredd were beaten by here:
Apparently, "Minority Report" was spawned from what was originally meant to be a sequel to the Arnie "Total Recall" flick.

Just got back from Wonder Woman with my son. Wow. 8/10 First of all, this movie is not on the level of the Dark Knight or Logan. It was however an awesome intro/origin story for a cool character & gave me some (if still very little) hope for the DC expanded universe. I wasn't sure what to make of Gal Gadot when B vs S Dawn of Idiocy came out. She seemed to have been chosen more for her beauty (which is substantial) and less for her acting. This was a pretty big misconception on my part. While she doesn't blow any scenes out of the water, she delivers a very solid performance. Connie Neilsen and Robin Wright are also very good. I was stunned by Chris Pine, who is more-or-less the heart of the film. He is great as Steve Trevor & his scenes are all well acted. His portrayal of Steve anchors the plot and made me invested in the 3rd act, which almost takes a turn in the wrong direction. Luckily this director knew where these pot holes were in the road and she deftly avoids them. Yes, some characters are cut and paste war/comic book stereotypes. Yes there are WAY too many Matrix-style slow-mo shots in the action scenes. Yes the villain is pretty much an evil version of the protagonist. None of this ruined my experience, however. I enjoyed this film despite myself. I hope it isn't the last good DC flick...

Wanted to watch my first (yep ) Alien movie then I learned Fassbender was there. I actually like his acting, it's just... the guy is fucking EVERYWHERE. In every freaking movie that goes out nowadays. It's exhausting.

Just got back from seeing Wonder Woman. Easy 9/10. The pacing is just right, got to see her back story which wasn't rushed like in a lot of movies. And now I see why she was so reluctant to join the fight against Doomsday in Batman vs Superman. And the humor is just right. With the exception of Suicide Squad, the DC movies are a bit darker, grittier than Marvel's with very little humor. Which is fine with me, everything that is going on is not a laughing matter. But this movie did it just right.

Scumbag, that's my point; the original ALIEN is likely my all-time favorite film for a reason. The effects are great & very minimal. Honestly they are worse in Covenant & ALIEN 3Just give it a shot. One viewing. One

I originally wasn't going to check out Wonder Woman, but after seeing James Rolfe's glowing review* and seeing other positive buzz(like comments in this thread), I'll check it out either today or sometime this week. I have to use my free movie tickets from blood donation on something, ya know? *

I just came back from seeing it, and it was worth donating blood for the ticket that I used for it(less so for the one I used for Alien Covenant). The WW1 setting was pretty nice.

Yeah, Wonder Woman is easily a new favorite for a while. Nice to finally see the DCEU get dragged out of that pit, at least for now.

Went to go see Pirates 5 with my brother. It was all right. I find it to be better than the fourth one, because that one was SO BORING. Wished Will and Elizabeth had larger roles. Jack meeting his uncle was funny.
Looking forward to Wonder Woman more, seeing as it's DC's first good movie in that universe.

I liked both Superman movies. I had my doubts about Batman vs Superman, just the title alone turned me off from seeing it in theaters. My thinking was, how is that even a fight? A mortal against Superman? Then I bought the Blu Ray last year out of curiosity and I was like, oh okay. Batman uses his grey matter to outsmart Superman, and not his fists. And then Wonder Woman showed up to help them against Doomsday and that movie started to move quickly into gear. I like the darkness of the DC movies over the stupid humor of the Marvel movies.

Man of Steel was OK, but I had my fair share of issues with that. Thankfully I liked Zod and Faora so much and the super fights were good enough to look at that I was able to look past some of it, but BvS… I actually can't think of any meaningful pluses to it. I even hate their casting decision for Alfred.

I even hate their casting decision for Alfred. Man O' Steele started out pretty cool, but when Kevin Costner moonwalked into that tornado, I felt my stomach turn. Things went from dumb to dumber really quickly. The ending was such a letdown. I still haven't brought myself to see B vs. S: Dawn of Idiocy, but I have heard enough awful things about it, so I feel like I don't have to. One good thing about the DC cluster-fuck, however is Antje Traue (Faora). She is beautiful & a good actress. I wanna see her in more dramatic roles soon

I went to watch Wonder Woman today.
I've watched Man of Steel, Batman vs Superman and Suicide Squad and in all honestly, I don't have any expectation at all but I kept getting bombarded by spoilers exponential rate that I went out to a nearby mall to keep up with pop culture. The ticket is ridiculously cheap since its the middle of weekday.
Overall, not really as amazing as I expected but okayish... loving the cinematography and stunt work but the writing flabbed.. Gadot is gorgeous and made me feel good about my messy ridiculously wavy hair that I start calling it Wonder Woman hair.
