"Expecting a Woman character who doesn't want her father's mission to succeed, to recruit best of the scientist in order to get best support for that same mission is stupidity"
As stupid as the woman that then put herself on the ship so that she could die along with them.... way to go Einstein!!!
"Expecting pups to buzz for a worm which was in hibernation when it entered and before the temperature was affectively changed is stupidity"
Tecnology defeated by hibernation..... bears can be detected AFTER they kill you!!!
"Expecting medical technology of 2094 to be same as 2012 is stupidity"
...because STAPLES are MAGICAL!!!
"Thinking that a Robot can be designed to blow air only if he actually breathes is stupidity."
Robot doesn't need to do either!
"Questioning fast growth of an Alien life form in a movie which is part of 'Alien' Franchise is stupidity"
It was never that fast in Alien and Aliens or Alien 3
"Your posts are riddled with stupidity, denial, desperation & fan-fiction."
Only the bits with your quotes in!
"You are proven losers."
Proven by no-one and certainly not you!
"Move on, Dickhead."
Go fist yourself?
"Its been 6 years the movie is released."
Statute of limitations in force or something?
"How long are you going to keep squealing like a pig on a board of a movie which you dislike ?"
As long as I want...... Poor effort Spanners with this sock account of yours, sooooo transparent!
"Typical Prometheus Haters' behaviour:
Haters posts what they feel is a flaw"
What else am I going to post? The recipe for cupcakes???
"Fans give logical answers with information coming from the movie"
Fans give fanwank answers, fans get dismissed with their fanwank answers.
"Hater vanishes for sometime and re-appear with the same post stating that the fans couldn't defend it."
The IMDB boards where these messages originated on were shut down moron!
"All your comments on supposed flaws have been explained."
Evidently not!
"You guys are the ultimate example of people of Low IQ and who want to stay in denial."
Coming from the guy that appears to have a lower IQ than the dead, who cares what you think?
"Expecting a biologist well-protected in a suit to forecast that a worm like snake form would have acid blood is stupidity"
Trying pet something that looks like a Cobra probably wasn't the best approach though eh?
I never understood the Skids and Mudflaps accusations, because like you i've heard all sorts of ethnicities speak and act like that, so reflecting that shouldn't be an issue.
He got accused of racism in the first Transformers movie as well, when they are battling Skorponok in the desert, they try to ring up their superiors but end up going through an Indian call centre, and people complained about the portrayal of the call operator......... THATS EXACTLY HOW THEY ARE FFS?!?!?!?!!!??
No we weren't.
A few of us had heard of each other on other boards, but invariably the united dislike/like of a movie was what drew people together.
I was on the other side for Terminator Salvation and Terminator Genisys and Taudarian and others were not there for those "battles".
Prometheus drew us together because of people like YOU that gamely tried to defend its utter stupidity, it became more about the excuses you defenders would concoct that kept us there, it was an underground mine that had a never ending seam of entertainment until the boards were shut down.
If it wasn't for people like you Spanners, we'd have migrated off to some other board months before, but you kept on coming back, again and again.
That you think we were responsible for the message boards shutting down shows you didn't frequent the more problematic boards like religion that really were a cesspit, with the likes of Navaros and Knight in Black Leather, and then you had others that would go on rampages until they were deleted, only to make another account just to do it all over again.
Prometheus is a crap movie, with characters that defy just how stupid humans can be..... and you still can't defend it ;)
I think your grasp on facts is geared toward your position.
Yes, The Last Jedi made $1.3 Billion, and that's no small amount of money to dismiss.
However, what absolutely cannot be dismissed, is the $700million The Last Jedi lost.
The Force Awakens made just over $2Billion.
Considering TLJ is supposed to be a continuation of the story that Force Awakens started, it doing $700million less than Force Awakens is cause for concern.
You could say that nostalgia was why Force Awakens did so well, or that it re-trod the "A New Hope" storyline, and played it safe, either way, no-one predicted that its sequel would LOSE $700million.
To put TLJ into perspective, if it dropped a mere $14million, its loss would have been the equivalent of Captain America: The Winter Soldier Box Office...... that's how much it lost!
And then soon after, Solo was released and we all know how that one played out.
The excuse of "Star Wars fatigue" is quite evidently bollocks!!! Marvel have released 23 movies as part of their MCU in ten years, so that excuse just doesn't work.
Inspite of your correct claims that the ratings for TLJ are quite high, you yourself should be pouring your own measure of doubt upon them when you take into account how much money TLJ lost.
TLJ should have been either very close to beating Force Awakens, equalling it, or even beating it...... as is the pattern of most other sequels in recent years. TLJ got no-where near close.
Its true that a lot of people appeared to like TLJ, but considerably less liked it because they didn't bother to go see it over its prequel.
No one is making "stuff up". There is a clear pattern here that TLJ has been poorly received by enough people that it lost $700million, and that also had a knock on effect on Solo which outright bombed.
You can't ignore those stats whilst bleating "but the ratings!".....
"thank you daughter"
I actually joined the Empire online forum because of Taken!
I was that incensed by Dan Jollins review, saying that the movie was full of racist bile, it seems you can't have bad guys unless they are white and English or American these days.
Absolutely piss poor review, seeing things that just was not there.
You assume thats so, the fact is many of them would have pulled out dollars out their pockets to pay to see it, no-one judges a movie via a crappy cam copy ffs!
Called this one.
Now at $359million and out of the domestic top ten, no way is this hitting $400million now.
Sure it will draw a profit, but I think Warner Bros was expecting a bit higher opening based on the reviews.
Not a bad movie, but utterly hamstrung by its release date.
Your "argument" is asinine.
There has NEVER been a movie like this, and that also goes for how the box office will tail off.
Its hardly the "worst of times" when you consider that Endgame is likely to top Avatar and do it in a fraction of the time.
It is $304million away from besting Avatar.
It is literally IMPOSSIBLE for ANY movie, even Endgame, to maintain a stratospheric box office and not have steep drops once the majority of people have seen it.
There was nothing to spoil in Avatar, you'd have to retell the entire movie to "spoil" it, but Endgame had specific moments in that could affect the desire to see it if they were spoiled, hence the clamour to see it so soon.
If you were genuine about your box office, you'd address this, but you don't, which is why people treat you with derision.
Scott Mendelson isn't very good......you're a "lite" version of him..... thats some boast!
Why don't you throw in another few faux "stay tuned" or any of the other mental phrases you use in an attempt to bolster yourself?
And when it does beat Avatar...... we can rely on you to post a thread with something negative to say, because yet again, you can't predict anything it seems.
Not so cool now are they? Did you know that Captain Marvel is now showing on more screens than Shazam! is?
Chris Evans.
Want to know who i'd rather play Captain America over Chris Evans?
No-one!!
I don't care that Chris Evans is an SJW, I just care that the roles he takes, he makes his best efforts, and Chris Evans has done that with Cap and theres no-one i'd replace him with.
Captain Marvel 2 is going to happen, Brie Larson will be in the title role, and shes bound to say something between now and then that gets up someones nose.
But to pretend that Captain Marvel wasn't a success is just sour grapes.
It was no Ghostbusters(2016)
2/2
Irrelevant.
The "backlash" had no effect, other than to drive those pissed off by Larsons comments to dive bomb Rotten Tomatoes to prove a point. And then when RT protected their site, they dive bombed reviews and audience ratings.
It doesn't matter what the critic or audience rating is, or whether it is similar to the score for Ghostbusters(2016), the latter made $229million and Captain Marvel is still making money at $1.21BILLION.
There is a distinction between the two movies.
Ghostbusters(2016) was not wanted, fans majority wanted Ghostbusters 3, not a reboot, thats why it faced a backlash, and thats why it lost money. Sure, Sony tried to make it about a few vocal morons moaning about "but the wimmin", and some of the cast tried the same, but that was NEVER the majority problem.
Captain Marvel, the complaints have been about a few things Brie Larson said, and frankly, most people don't care, didn't hear, or either were not offended, or took what she said and ignored it, and some cried about it.
The "backlash" was never about the movie itself, it was always about Brie, and when you consider that the majority of the world doesn't give a fuck what Geeks and Gamers, Nerdrotic and The Quartering have got to say on Youtube, that puts the "backlash" into perspective.
These are the same guys that were making countless videos for their "fans" to not see the movie, and yet went out to see it themselves so they could review it for their Youtube channels!!
The rating is irrelevant, because several times over recent years the audience score hasn't always matched the critics score, but i'm not too keen on giving any kind of credence to the score for Captain Marvel, because thousands went out of their way to sabotage the movie all because they didn't like what Brie Larson said.
Pathetic!
Ironically, i'm no SJW fan, I find them tiresome, but I separate the actors from their personal lives.
Want to know who in the Marvel cast is a bigger SJW than Brie Larson?
1/2
I got the impression she wasn't mentioned again maybe because she got dusted.
Cap - "I can do this all day"
Its possible he could return, because in Infinity War, they made the point that if they could remove the stone, there was still a whole lot left of Vision, hence the whole point in getting him to Wakanda.
I was expecting Hulk and Thanos to go toe to toe again and Hulk make a better job of it.
I was expecting Nebula to do the killing blow to Thanos as shes arguably been the most affected.
I was expecting Cap to get his happy end with Peggy and we know how that ended.
More sharing..... seriously, lets have someone else share, this guy is getting sick of how much he's sharing.
Sharing is caring.
Thats good to know, thanks for sharing.
Anyone else want to share?
I'm presuming you're not joking?
In Winter Soldier at the start, Sam is running laps. Steve Rogers is also running at the same time, but because he is so much faster, he keeps lapping Sam, but shouts out "on your left" before he passes to let him know he's going to pass him.
The "on your left" was Sam returning the favour in Endgame when him and the rest came to save the day.
