The character of Mary Corleone just needed to be played by someone who had layered talent. I feel like every time she’s on screen you are just watching someone act, and in a film that it highly based on character interaction and deception it just doesn’t work as much. The reason the film is widely regarded as the worst of the 3 is that they underutilized one of the characters that drove the film.

Yes. He was chasing her down in an attempt to shoot hr in the back. You don't escalate to that from "loving husband" unless the inclination was already there.

I have to go Puss in Boots: The Last Wish. That movie got me excited in a way no movie has done in years.

A gentleman chasing her down to shoot her in the back? That's a hot take.

Sequel to a spin off of a sequel.

Yea? That should count.

No he is much older than the one in my mind. The one I have in mind is much younger, I think he was in the teenage movies for the early 2000s or a sitcom or something

It's not generally seen as awful, but in comparison to the first two, it is a massive drop off, which is admittedly a very very high bar.

But it also suffers from coming out 20ish years after the first two, which were made more or less back-to-back, so they really feel like one full piece.

I am interested to see the new Coda re-edit, because I do think that it works best as an epilogue, and not something that's supposed to be a full 1/3 or 33% of the total picture on equal footing with the first two, and from my understanding, that's the direction Coppola goes with this newer edit.

I didn’t know anything about the movie aside from it being attached to a big star and that it had a theatrical release, so I was assuming it would be a mid-budget action movie kind of like John Wick. Within 30 seconds I realized it was either extremely low budget or very poorly made, at which point I was at least hoping for some camp.

Anyway I didn’t make the post to be a jerk, and I know lots of talented people worked hard on this movie, but I am genuinely shocked by the response this movie is getting. What I saw was a $25million movie that I swear to all things holy looked like it was done for $10k. I’ve seen found footage movies that looked better.

I love trailers, they get me hyped, some trends are over used but I think they can still be effective depending on how well they match up with the content.

Loved the music choice for The Way Back with Ben Affleck, lines from the movie while Bon Iver's Heavenly Father fades in and out...stirs all the right emotion and matches the movies tone perfectly!

That’s Oscar Isaac’s screen test for Hugh Jackman’s role in The Prestige.

Hugh Jackman and Oscar Isaac

Young Victor Garber.

Looks a lot like Oscar Isaac to me.

>In the 30-ish MCU movies/shows, the military has made 0 difference in any fight scene, ever (excluding Captain America: The First Avenger, where it's literally set in WW2).

Ummm...Col. James Rhodes (War Machine)...he does a decent amount. Played by Don Cheadle. Ring any bells?

>Shooting Thor does nothing.

Refresh my memory as to when they shot Thor?

>we all know how much the USA loves to jerk itself off with throwing the military in any action movie

Apparently you love to jerk yourself off with your posts...

Actually, the US military doesn't appear that much in most of the MCU movies.

>It's straight up lazy writing.

This sub would be so much better if automod were setup to autoremove posts containing the words "lazy writing". It's lazy criticism.

It's a movie. It's entertainment. It's not real.

This take is tiring, boring, and straight up lazy. You could do better and you choose not to.

This is an odd rant.

What's the alternative?

The military gets called in when the Hulk is trashing a city.

They have a weapon that can kill him.

They use it. He dies.

...you hear crickets for the next two hours.

Suspend your disbelief and enjoy the movie. We know spacecraft don't make sounds outside of earth's atmosphere and people can't breathe underwater. We accept it because it's fantasy. Otherwise, we'd just be watching documentaries.

They are only set up to handle normal threats. That's why the military wanted Iron Man suits, and probably why they want a government run team like the Thunderbolts if that's what's going on.

Michigan, same. There ain't much getting me through February.

If Hugh Jackman, Dennis Hopper and Richard Hammond combined into an acting voltron.
