    Yeah they probably do...While laughing hysterically and counting their wads of cash

    I find it very difficult to believe that talented people like Johnny Depp and Gore Verbinksy didn't know that the Lone Ranger was a total turd. I'm not sure they are laughing about it though. Their reputation counts more than their income - Armie Hammer on the other hand. He might have been placed in the same category of Shia LeBeouf and Sam Worthington.

    I kinda agree. I'm sure Pacific Rim is terrible, but it kinda has me excited. I guess kinda like Real Steel. Never ended up catching it, but something about Real Steel kept compelling me to want to see it.

    That's the 6 year old version of you juts thinking, "sweet, giant robots and monsters."

    Halle Berry knew Catwoman would be terrible, but had to make it bc of studio contract. Could be similar issue.

    very true..my bad. Stringer and Charlize Theron made Prometheus for me.
  • Manhattan Buckeye
    Prometheus' first 20 minutes made it for me. Too bad the last 100 minutes were absolute dreck that made no sense.

    I didn't care for the ending.... felt like it was just thrown in to connect it to aliens

    I liked that they did connect it to aliens, but I feel like it could have been done more elegantly.

    Yeah... That is what I meant. It seemed just thrown together... Not well done

    Pacific Rim with an 81% on RT (admittedly through only 32 reviews): http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/pacific_rim_2013/

    Work has locked down our youtube streaming, but could someone post the trailer to the new Tom Hanks movie? I think it has a lot of promise.

    Captain Phillips looks awesome. Saw the trailer in theatres for a movie I recently saw.
  • Scarlet_Buckeye
    Definitely excited about Captain Phillips. Looks great.

    I saw a preview for Gravity the other week, and I think it looks pretty interesting.

    I saw a couple previews for Gravity as well, but I don't know what to think about it. It looks intense, but I can't imagine sitting an entire movie thru someone "drifting thru space."
  • Laley23
    Gravity does look intense. That would have to be the worst feeling ever...lol
  • SportsAndLady
    Fuck that movie. That's my worst fear.

    Everytime I watch a space movie I get extreme anxiety about that happening. I have nightmares about it afterwords. A movie made specifically about it...FUCK THAT.

    Of course, I am an idiot and it looks intriguing, so I will watch it. Then hate myself for weeks.
  • Laley23
    Also, coming from a guy who isnt the biggest fan of Tom Hanks movies...Captain Phillips looks fucking awesome. Really pumped for that one.
  • thavoice
    Captain Phillips does look pretty good. This is the first I had even heard of it.


    Think late this fall or early spring Mark Wahlberg is supposed to be playing Marcus Luttrell in The Lone Survivor about an op in Afghanistan in 2005 called Operation red Wings. SHould be sweet.
