  • @bondjames - Well, I don't see a problem as long as it's not the only or the main criteria. ;) Movies are primarily visual, and if beautiful cinematography, sets and so on can be appreciated then why not beautiful people, too. I'm sure you didn't me…
  • I liked your criteria list @bondjames, but... bondjames wrote: » 9. eye candy (sorry ladies, but I'm a red blooded male) I'm curious as to why you're apologizing - do you think women don't appreciate eye candy? (Though what anyone even m…

  • I was just going to quote Theron's comment from the the original source (the one the site above is using. That pretty much said it all. In another interview she said the stuff was taken out of proportion, which I'm sure it was, that happens all the …
  • But Max was so badass for being as he was, far more of a man for not trying to be The Man.Gained my utmost respect right there and I still remember grinning, it was so unusual. And no stupid jokes from either or a big deal made of it.Just doing what…
  • This scene :x \m/ ^:)^

  • Ok, Dimi. :)
  • There are so many movies coming out this year/next year that I'm really looking forward to and sort of drooling here going "Gimme!" absolutely ready to buy my ticket as soon as possible (and some people that I'd like to beg to start making movies ag…
  • @Creasy47, well if someone said that without seeing the movie... that is prejudice. If they saw the movie and still say that then I really don't understand it.

  • Creasy47 wrote: » I was actually surprised with how many people spouted off that 'Mad Max: Fury Road' was so anti-woman, because there was a lot of pro-feminine messages in the film, and lots of girls kicking tons of ass. Eh? How on earth c…

  • DarthDimi wrote: » I have read some criticism about Fury Road delivering a feminist message and such, but that's utterly ridiculous. Surely in 2015 we are sophisticated enough to handle heroins as well as heroes, and besides, Max is still the ulti…
  • Yes, @Creasy47, both of those things were great.
  • Well, character development isn't absolutely necessary for a movie to be good, but some development usually needs to be there. In MMFR it was most notably the relationship development between Max and Furiosa, and Nux's story was notable, too. But…
  • patb wrote: » Obviously, its down to taste. There is no science behind it. I am just saying IMHO that ten more minutes of talking/building relationships/developing characters and ten less minutes are car crashes could have made it a better movie. …
  • I think these need to be posted here, too: "I AM THE SCALES OF JUSTICE!!"

  • Well, it's taste and opinion. I wouldn't claim T2 is "deeper" somehow than MMFR. (And I love T2.) The MMFR plot is not indeed complicated, but it doesn't need to be. A lot of good movies have simple plots. Simple doesn't mean worse, it depends. I…
  • Thanks, @Creasy47 and @chrisisall. All fair then. :) In general though... I don't think a movie should even have to be out everywhere, since sometimes release dates are months later in some places... and movies arrive much later in smaller towns…
  • @Creasy47 - well, that's why I asked actually: is it ok to discuss anything or not? I thought maybe not yet, but on the other hand I think it should be, because if people insist on reading articles, reviews, discussion about movies after their relea…
  • I'll need to watch Gibson's Max again before making any comparisons, I barely remember, it's been ages. But at least at the time (sometime last millenium) I didn't think "brilliant" which is what I did with Hardy. I think it's hard in a way for thos…
  • patb wrote: » We cant discuss it openly, unfair to those who have not seen it, give it a couple of weeks, not sure what the fair thing is re discussing movies that have only been out a few days. Of course we can't. That's why I didn't ask w…
  • ^^ I'm trying to figure out what problem you saw in the structure... It certainly has replay value for me. (Haven't seen it the 2nd time yet, but really, really want to. Soon...) And humor, too - some of it very understated as was some of the actin…
  • Whiplash I guess I wasn't quite as impressed and excited by this as many other people were, but it was certainly good and well made, and JK Simmons was indeed excellent.
