JamesYTP said:Saw the 2008 Hulk. I honestly didn't think it was as bad as most say, I did enjoy that it explored the hardships and the harm Bruce goes through as the Hulk in a visceral kinda way (seeing his girlfriend beaten to hell in the opening sequence, having to stop when he's about to bang her because too much excitement would trigger the transformation) and what instances of Hulk wrecking things they had were pretty fun...unfortunately there isn't much of that. The kicker of the movie is that the whole plot of it up until the last 20 minutes was Bruce going on a long quest to find a cure for himself and after he gets the antidote pumped into him they just casually as anything just have him go back to being the Hulk and right when the need so it makes the whole thing feel kinda pointless lol.

3/5 - 1/5 - 3/5 respectively.
Loved the mini series and Tim Curry gave his all in the film. Didn't care for the 2017 version because they were flat characters, and Mike and Stanely literally disappeared from the film. Chapter 2 was boring until the 30 minutes where it actually got interesting and cool; but it was a slog to get through.
That's a REALLY unusual opinion regarding It. Well aside from Tim Curry being great as Pennywise, he can do no wrong lol.
Yeah! I never seen the original It series nor the films until 2 weeks ago, so I viewed all of them back-to-back. I thought the mini series was pretty fun to watch, and the acting was top notch. The film adapation was more or less accurate to the book, but I felt that the first film was an absolute chore to sit through. Mike and Stanely just phased out from the film, and everyone was just boring. Didn't like the over-top cussing and jokes lol. Richie was the worst character in that film :joy: I do give them credit for th scaring me during the projector scene though!
At least Chapter 2 was pretty "okay", then great in the last 30 or so minutes of the film where they had to battle It in its true form. None of the scenes scared me (maybe because I always expect them?) but yeah :joy: it is a strange opinion!!
gokugirl2006 said:Seen the movie 'Eternals'. It wasn't a bad movie as they (some film critics) thought it was. The best parts of this movie was them fighting off those creatures called the 'Deviants' as well as the CGI effects. I give this film a 7/10 rating.
Right!? People acting like Eternals was the worst films of the marvel films but I thought it was great. The only complaint I had was that the main deviant kind of got shafted in the ending; definitely something I feel that could've been used as a set up villain in future films! Loved the CGI, loved the absolute power of speedster, and how Ikaris felt like an genuine superman :joy:
3/5!!
