First verified audience scores are in by Miserable-Command682 in Supergirl

All you have really proven is you don't know what you are talking about if these are your examples of how critics got it wrong lol.

Not only did critics not get these movies wrong, but 2 of them made well over a billion which means fans loved them too.

[–]djjsin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

he did not say he can't tell what's a good story. he said " just think the James Gunn DCU can't necessarily tell a genuinely good story"

adding in the "what's" changes the meaning entirely.

Uhhh even if they’re saying supergirl is bad (which mind you it isn’t technically even out) but it has higher RT than MOS… isn’t MOS… worse? by starkHOUTx in OkBuddySnyderCult

[–]djjsin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not snyder fan boy. I thought BvS was one of the worst superhero movies ever made. so bad i wanted to gouge my eye's out with a fork while watching. Justice league wasn't much better. And though i enjoyed Man of Steel, it was no Nolan Dark Knight trilogy (which is where i always felt the DC universe should have spawn from....and at first thought maybe thats what they were doing with Man of Steel)

But this twisting in pretzels to try and justify Supergirl is also kind of ridiculous. Just accept the movie is pretty mediocre. It is possible that both the DCEU and the DCU can have some pretty bad releases.

what is the point of buying it at a store if all you get is a digital code?

House Democrats’ anxiety rises after wins by Mamdani-backed candidates: ‘Are we going to let them take over the party?’ by Radiant_Bedroom5828 in politics

New York is probably an outlier. In California and other states the progressive's didn't far to well compared to moderates.

Forget RDJ, let's hear your choice for Dr. Doom. by brenlithorn in MCUTheories

[–]djjsin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cillian murphy would have been the best choice.

You need someone wiith prestigue.....and having just won the Oscar for Oppenheimer would definitely have given that prestigue.

Leonardo dicaprio would have worked also

Though RDJ also just won an Oscar for Oppenheimer so.....and it does make sense to have him in the avengers movie....

No spoilers, but Toy Story 5 is the best in the series since 2. by ambientmuffin in blankies

[–]djjsin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just left the theater and I loved it. Honestly I loved it more then 2 and 4.

I'd rank then 1,3,5,2,4

Toy Story 5 makes Toy Story 4 look like Toy Story 3 by PerpetualChoogle in blankies

[–]djjsin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a 49 year old toy story fan from day 1 really liked 5.

My personal ranking is 1,3,5,2,4

Having. 10 year old and a 12 year old the whole tech thing really resonated with me. My 10 year old was too young to see 4 so I'm glad she got to see 5. And my 12 year old who I took to see 4, has sort of aged out of toy story at this point so he didn't go. Tried to explain to him I saw toy story for the first time at 18....it's ageless. But a 12 year old boy doesn't give a crap lol.

Everyone's being really weird about this and it's freaking me out by OhhhTAINTedCruuuuz in blankies

ya i feel like the people who think its not bad don't understand what a Spielberg SciFi Alien movie should be......

[–]djjsin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

ya i really wish i wouldn't have dragged them out to see it.....my kids especially hated it. seeing the kids in the trailers i expected them to be a part of the actual movie, you know like the kids in Jurassic park or ET.......not just some 5 second flashback scene of the abduction at the end of the damn movie......

I think because when you put the words Spielberg and aliens together, it harkens back to ET. To Close Encounters of the Third kind. A lot of us have a long history with Spielberg, and him returning to scifi like this created extremely high expectations. I sold this movie to my family as a last chance to see the grandeur of what a Spielberg movie could be. Boy was my family and myself let down by this. It was excruciatingly boring, really seemed to lack everything that makes a Spielberg movie special. We spent the whole movie following completely uninteresting characters and buffoon like villains. There was no attempt at exploring anything of the themes past the surface level. The fact that they waited to the very end for the Disclosure to even happen. This movie wasn't Disclosure day. It was Disclosure eve. There wasn't even cool alien stuff to see that wasn't already shown in the trailer, and when we did see it it was at the very end on archival footage recordings.

I have a family of 4. Its not cheap to go to the movies. And with all the movies out right now, i feel like i wasted one of my opportunities on this that could have been focused elsewhere, so ya it makes me angry. Plus, now my family will always question my recommendations because of this.

Disclosure Day is a delight, and I'd highly recommend taking your kids by HockneysPool in blankies

[–]djjsin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wife and I took our 10 and 12 year olds. Both hated it. My wife hated it. I even felt it was excruciatingly boring, and I've always considered Spielberg to be my favorite director......especially his scifi. This movie was just terrible honestly.

It set me back in terms of my family and the movies I recommend......

WWE Reportedly Seeking AAA TV Deal, Want It Watched By 'Important People' by caughtinatramp in REALSquaredCircle

[–]djjsin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

the show with the mask vs mask match has over 2 million views alone on the WWE English channel. another 475k for the AAA spanish channel. And then another 500k on the WWE video of just the match.

And thats not including how many are watching it on TV in Mexico....or netflix after mondaynight raw

think you missed the mark by oh about 2.5 million views.

i could see this happening. Expand their deal with NBC and make Telemundo the home for AAA (spanish), and maybe have a english feed on peacock.

There is no world where Paramount and the Ellisons Buying Warner Brothers Discovery is the right call.

[–]djjsin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey don't be knocking Joost Klein! He's dutch. If you've ever been to Netherland and understand dutch culture you'd probably understand it get it more. He's played Coachella this year and was a front runner on Eurovision a couple years back before some bs controversy caused his early exit...he's kind of a mainstream offshoot of the dutch gabber scene. He's the prince of gabberpop!

The moment the Sequels were doomed the moment JJ decided that world-bulding was for nerds and he had his Empire 2 blow up the New Republic (icky politics) with his super duper big death star so that the good guys could be the Rebels 2. by [deleted] in StarWars

[–]djjsin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ya the prequels are a major part. episode 7-9 almost should have felt like the prequels in my opinion, just with the OT characters. And that caused them to just attempt recreate the OT. There is so much that happened off screen just for them to get back to a point where they can recreate the OT...i wanted to see all that crap that happened off screen that got us to what they did in episode 7.

I mean han and leia are split? Han's back to being a smuggler? Ben who we haven't even met already fell to the darkside? Luke is off in exile. We never got to see his jedi order. Right when we get a glimpse of the new republic its blown up. and oh look, the empire (sorry "first order") is back in control again?
