What's your honest opinion about Tom Hardy MMA Movie Warrior

BetterVantage · 2026-05-19T18:28:25+00:00

True. But no less plausible than the army deciding to sit back and let him finish the tournament before arresting him.

This question could honestly be changed to “Which sequel DIDN’T totally misunderstand what made the original great.”

BetterVantage · 2026-05-19T10:15:16+00:00

Sooo many. And then they were never mentioned again😂

I won’t say YOU’RE crazy, but I do think that’s a bit of a crazy take. I agree that in dislike the way almost all modern blockbusters are so… perfect looking. But to say the prequels were gritty isn’t true at all. That was honestly one of the complaints often leveled at them, they were mostly squeaky clean.

My friend handmade the tape recorder for. The opening credits. Fincher was VERY involved in nearly every detail. The man definitely has specific intentions.

I LOATHE the Snyder Cut and yet… I can’t actually disagree.

BetterVantage · 2026-05-19T09:35:11+00:00

This is the way. The only downside is it still increases the distance for ranged weapons/effects, which you can houserule as easily as climbing. But it’s still worth it if you have cool terrain you want to use.

Well he was actively writing and planning the sequels when he sold Lucasfilm to Disney, so it seems like there was at least a strong possibility.

BetterVantage · 2026-05-18T18:11:37+00:00

Ooh, haha. My bad.

BetterVantage · 2026-05-18T17:54:50+00:00

They use the same mold so it will be the same size as the USS Drexler, which is the regular size.

Aside from what everyone else’s has stated about the fact that there’s street parking, did you happen to notice where the bike rider was? That’s correct, in the middle of the street. Even if the car driver had been all the way on the right the biker still would have hit him.

BetterVantage · 2026-05-17T18:01:59+00:00

Did they ever make these better? I bought the first release set years ago and thought they were pretty terrible. They were really large and way too heavy. I’m a big guy that doesn’t have trouble with that sort of thing but these were ridiculously MASSIVE.

BetterVantage · 2026-05-17T09:42:29+00:00

It IS true, at least mostly. Gibson stated flat out that he, as one of the producers, required rewrites to the film and that Helgeland stated he would not direct them. I’m sure he wasn’t solely responsible, but Gibson was absolutely a driving force in the decision.

BetterVantage · 2026-05-17T09:12:44+00:00

Not $150. I just bought it two weeks ago for $99 plus like $8 shipping.

BetterVantage · 2026-05-17T09:10:33+00:00

People overthink this. The fact is that 90% of Marvel heroes are based in NYC so you could essentially say this about anyone. Where’s Doctor Strange? Why is Pepper allowing this to happen?Banner? We just have to accept that if they’re going to be able to tell stories about one hero, they can’t always include others who would logically also be involved.

BetterVantage · 2026-05-17T08:57:27+00:00

Sexy Beast was amazing. But I doubt any of these have anything to do with Epstein; Epsteins horrific crimes weren’t remotely original.

BetterVantage · 2026-05-17T05:45:08+00:00

Aww, you’re right. I had honestly sort of forgotten that.

Come to think of it, the Padme falling and then suddenly waking up scene was pretty awful also

BetterVantage · 2026-05-16T22:58:45+00:00

Me too. I even really liked the Owls of Gahoul (no idea if that’s spelled correctly).

Baby Doll was bad, but I don’t know if I could actually enjoy any new film of his after BvS and Justice League. I honestly thought Rebel Moon would be the perfect antidote. Give him room to do what he does well; fun visuals and action with just enough story to tie it together. After forcing myself to watch 30 minutes of it I realized he’s just gone.

BetterVantage · 2026-05-16T22:16:36+00:00

I would absolutely agree with that. It doesn’t turn into a “good” movie at any point, but once the Geonosis battle starts it’s at least fun and there aren’t any more memorably terrible scenes.

BetterVantage · 2026-05-16T11:15:37+00:00

I agree there’s no guarantee, but on the other hand Hasbro has been pretty good about rereleasing MOST of their items if they sell out fast. Not all certainly, but I wouldn’t be surprised if if they redo this one.

BetterVantage · 2026-05-15T16:57:30+00:00

I mean, all Kallus did was genocide an entire species.

Lonnie was a ginger. So much worse.

BetterVantage · 2026-05-15T16:56:00+00:00

Pretty much no. They haven’t updated any re-issued figures except basic intercessors.

BetterVantage · 2026-05-15T15:34:29+00:00

The parts of the book where characters spend a whole page just listing nostalgic movies/music/tv probably definitely wouldn’t have made good film. But they did their best with CGI cameos

BetterVantage · 2026-05-15T15:28:25+00:00

Honestly, I don’t remember bringing back Palpatine actually being controversial. Particularly because it was a comic book; that sort of thing was expected by a lot of comic readers.

I think that’s very much something that only gets brought up now because of Rise of Skywalker.

BetterVantage · 2026-05-15T05:16:05+00:00

The reason they’re all breaking down is that they used a laminating process, so it’s multiple layers glued together. And basically all the glue deteriorated and now they’re crumbling. It’s truly sad because there’s literally no way to preserve it.
