Edgelords everywhere!

Nah, I know it's not to everyone's taste, but I did love it. It's cheesy as strawberry float, with some terrible performance and literally nothing original, but the way Del Toro directs with absolute commitment to this ridiculous film turns it into something special for me.

But yeah, I think most see it as 'that shitty robot film from the fish strawberry floating guy'

The thing is, it was to my taste. I am not a film snob, I love a stupid monster movie.

I just found it a bit dull. It had some great moments, but overall it didn’t leave me feeling like I ever wanted to watch it again.

Aliens is ‘ok’?

Ok? What the strawberry float?
Utterly ridiculous statement. It’s strawberry floating superb is what it is.
Sits beautifully alongside the first one simply because it doesn’t try to emulate it.
Ok.
:lol:
:shock:

I’m telling Michael Biehn you said that.

Dawn of the Dead (1978) 10/10

My favorite film ever. Don't think that'll ever change. Zombies, a mall, soundtrack by Goblin, perfection.

I had really high hopes for Pacific Rim as i absolutely love monster movies, but it just wasn't up to scratch. Too much dull talking, the action wasn't great (why didn't they make it about the bit at the start when they talked about taking a week for the army to kill the first kaiju, now THAT would have been worth seeing!), the characters were just bland.

Pacific Rim is brilliant, and I haven't watched the second because the trailers seemed to demonstrate a completely misunderstanding of why the first film was good

I still don’t understand how the acting was so bad in Pacific Rim.

Avengers: Infinity War

10/10

Literally 2 and half hours of non stop action, and it just flew by like it was just 90 minutes. Totally the best Marvel film I’ve ever seen.

Avengers: Infinity War

0.5/10

Literally 2 and half hours of non stop action, it felt like it would never strawberry floating end. Totally the last Marvel film I'm ever putting myself through.

They've spent 10 years, 18 movies and 36 hours of film developing the characters and building up to this, what did you expect?

This may shock you, but I think the avengers films are crap :lol:

Captain America (the first of those new ones) is still by far the best of the marvel films

Avengers Infinity War - ......

Not sure. I'm seeing it again tonight so that'll cement my opinion. It's a huge spectacle, loads of stuff not shown in the trailers, tons of epic moments, some emotional bits and Thanos is perfect.

It doesn't feel like a film like Black Panther did as this is more of a event. But as a fan it's what I wanted and more. Best post credit scene for ages too.

Interested to read people's scoring on Infinity War, but can people make sure there are zero spoilers in this topic? (Even ones in spoilers show from Tapatalk)

Yes?

The Quiet Place - 7/10

Fairly decent, but let itself down down in a lot of ways. While it was an interesting concept, it wasn't followed through properly and too much was borrowed for other similar (and mostly better) films. The direction had no style whatsoever and the use of music was totally misplaced. Still fun though. It Comes At Night for babies.

Blade Runner 2049.

It was much more similar to the original (in terms of pacing, light on dialogue, sound etc.) than I expected - which is a positive, because it draws you in all the more. The practical set designs /effects were breathtaking, made memorable largely through rich colour palettes and the way in which light and shadows are utilised compliments a lot of scenes really well.

I would say that 2049 surpasses the original.
