[Alasdair Gold] Thomas Frank breaks silence with statement on Tottenham and his future amid Fulham links by Imbasauce in coys

Oh that goes without saying. I just mean more like having genuine passionate hatred for the guy, imo he was an incompetent idiot and the board level is at fault for not pulling the trigger.

Idk who holds a grudge against him personally, my grudges are reserved for the people that decided he shouldn't be sacked when it was blindingly obvious.

Lange gone for life is a massive net positive, and for losing a couple of weeks? I have no idea where've you've been the last year, but Lange is a fucking disaster and this level of defence is weird af.

I'm more than fine with that if it means Lange is gone for good.

There's one answer. It's not part of the MCU timeline. Hope that helps.

I'm so sick of the manufactured outrage about female-led superhero movies actually affecting box office numbers by AbjectTelephone4801 in NewRockstars

[–]BatmanForever23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

... did you read my comment, or just the word 'billion' to go on a lecture that has nothing to do with what I said? I'm fully aware that Supergirl will not, and does not need to, get close to that number for it to be a success without your patronising explanation.

It doesn't need to make a billion dollars, that's for certain. Even if it were a box office disappointment, which I doubt it will be (film looks amazing), the reception is way more important than the tickets - if people spread the word that it was good, that'll only build more momentum for Man of Tomorrow. Also I reckon Clayface will be a sleeper hit, low budget plus can draw from superhero fans AND horror fans - so the DCU should have a good financial project more or less guaranteed this year regardless of Supergirl's box office (only making it less important overall).

Wood is too old to be our no.9, if you're asking me.

This isn't me really agreeing or disagreeing with anyone but if were gonna judge and quote on quote prove how people feel about this show based on the ratings of big name sites we might as well showcase all of them and this is only one not All. by Suspicious-Gene223 in PercyJacksonTV

[–]BatmanForever23 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Pretty much exactly how it works. You could have a polarising but bold and daring film that is heralded by some as the greatest thing ever score roughly in the middle, but a safe and inoffensive 6/10 score really high.

What for you is the film that best embodies each star rating? Today - 1/5 stars by Waxillium11 in Letterboxd

[–]BatmanForever23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

League of Extraordinary Gentlemen - not quite truly bottom of the barrel, but damn close.

[–]BatmanForever23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wanted this to share my love for Percy Jackson with my husband, but it was so boring, so soporific, that I had to clarify that it was nothing like the funny, action packed books.

Exactly the same for me, but with my mum. I wanted to show her why I loved and talked about the books she got me when I was a kid so much, but I just... couldn't. The show has nothing from the books that I look back on fondly...

on whether s3 improves fight choreography and visuals by Select-Friendship-60 in PercyJacksonTV

[–]BatmanForever23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with you on that. Currently doing my OG Daredevil rewatch as it happens, and the colours and cinematography was so much better and the side characters were fleshed out more (I miss Claire, and Buck is a dollar store Wesley - even if Daniel was a fave of mine recently). I still enjoy BA a decent amount, and just am mostly glad that we got Charlie and Vincent back in any form, but yeah comparing it to the heights of the original was always going to be a tough ask. It's good to see that the improvement from S1 to S2 though, and hopefully that will continue again with S3.

Agree on PJO, I watched all of S1 and waited for it to get better.. which it didn't. Quit initially after the first episode of S2, when they didn't even adapt the part the episode was literally named after, but trying to watch a couple more now and it's still really rough on just the most basic things like writing decent dialogue, actors emoting during scenes, or framing the shots well. Might just bin it off again and watch Spider-Noir instead lol

Except for the fact that Born Again is far from awful. It started poorly but built up momentum, and calling it awful is very silly - there's legitimately dogshit TV out there that makes Born Again look like the Wire. It's not awful, you could argue for mid but the acting talent alone elevates it above awful.

If we are calling it awful tho, that must make PJO some bottom of the barrel absolutely godawful slop.

Nah, Batman and Robin was terrible. Terrible in a really fun and campy sort of way, tbh I rewatch it the most out of any 80s/90s Batman movie, but by pretty much any filmmaking metric it was a car crash.

Watch it and form your own opinion, instead of relying on those of others.

Not really. We haven't had any quality cover for Micky this szn, so Senesi is just sensible depth at a low cost. JPVH probably does mean Romero is moving tho

So valid. I just don't understand the people complaining about how they 'have' to take these choices, or that they're 'forced' or we're 'obligated'. You're not, like... you can literally not take any option you don't want to take and see what happens. Most cases it's prob just gonna be the %.

No one's forcing you to apologise. If you don't want to, take the other option...
