Starring Amber Turd.
Maggie is not ugly, but she is not pretty enough for a Batman girl.
It seems we don't watch Batman or DC movies with the same expectations.
IRL, I'm all about the chase when it comes to love and relationships. There's nothing more enjoyable in life than impressing a girl and making her fall in love with you - especially if she looked down on you at first.
I watch superhero movies with this mindset. To me, half of it is about the secret superhero's relationship with the girl. Will she find out? How will she react? How do they deal with it?
Batman movies are only as good as the appearance of the girl allows them to be.
Am I a sexist / misogynist for thinking that? Probably.
Batman 1989: Kim Basinger. Good.
Batman Returns: Pfeiffer. Great.
Batman Forever: Kidman. Her prime, but still not my taste.
Batman & Robin: Uma Thurman. Her prime, but not my taste at all. Eww. Kill Bill is the only Tarantino movie(s) I dont like.
Batman Begins: Katie Holmes. Wow.
TDK: Gyllenhaal. The movie had the best components of them all, but it was bottlenecked by the girl.
TDKR: Hathaway. Endless potential.
No, Maggie Gyllenhaal was AWFUL:
Batman's love interest is only supposed to be eye candy.
Katie Holmes fulfills that role perfectly. So did Anne Hathaway.
Gyllenhaal's dull face does not.
1. The Prestige
2. TDKR
3. Batman Begins
4. TDK (it would've been the best in the trilogy without Gyllenhall's dull face)
5. Interstellar
6. Memento
7. Inception
8. Insomnia
Haven't watched the rest.
Who cares, she's only supposed to be eye candy.
Katie Holmes is eye candy.
Anne Hathaway is eye candy.
Maggie Gyllenhaal is NOT eye candy. That's why TDK is the least great movie in the trilogy even though it has the best villain and best action scenes.
I liked Freeze.
I also liked Ivy, although I don't find Uma Thurman sexy.
What made this movie stink:
- George Clooney
- too many heroes and bad ones at that. Batgirl? Really? It was already too much at Batman & Robin.
- a bad combination of dark and light
But worst of all, kids became the target audience for WarnerBros and everything else is a consequence of it. That created this joke of a movie.
What are you talking about?
Tommy is an all-American guy that likes to play football with his friends.
I see mainly black people and the white "anti-racist" crowd doing it these days.
I know that's what you were hoping it to be.
I was initially going to post that by vanilla I mean he was "too white".
But to be honest I thought there were too many black people..........
Lame. Too clean and friendly. If you're going to include a sister-in-law from hell character, then the main character better be tougher and less of a saint. The combination didn't work, and the "funny scenes" with the sister-in-law ended up not being funny at all.
I'm not very active here, but my oldest post is actually older than his oldest.
I've been here for about a year and a half. Before that I was on the IMDB boards since around 2004.
However this is the first time I noticed this Kowalski fellow, but sadly enough he's far from the only CAPS LOCK abuser I've come across on the interwebs.
Please don't shout at me.
You see it in many comedies. The jealous, cynical, lonely sister who wants to ruin her sister's marriage. A cliche at this point. It's supposed to be a funny, silly little beef.
Thats because she's part Sami and Finnish.
They descent partly from Uralic peoples of Asia.
I somewhat agree that a lot of the jokes fell flat, but the ones involving his sons were absolutely hilarious.
Same.
I had watched it probably 10-20 times by the time I was 14.
I'm now in my 30s, and decided to rewatch it for the first time in 2 decades.
I now realize this movie has pretty much shaped me as a person.
A lot of my humor is based on Ace Ventura, such as when he lists all the facts about F.A.N. before sarcastically claiming that he has never heard of them. I do that all the time every time someone asks me about something which they don't know that I'm an expert of.
That was the the only time and it felt out of place in this movie.
"Three years isn't enough time to move on? Come on, man. "
My issue is with how the movie deals with the character. She's coming back to his life, not emotional, not in tears, not in regret. She shows up, smiling and telling him about her life as if she's meeting up with an ex from high-school again. Then she kisses him and has sex with him as if she never met her husband and the accident didn't happen, before returning to her husband and trying to disappear completely out of Johnny's life. What a sweet, wonderful lady!
To be fair, I think most of it is on Brooke Adams, the actress. She makes the dialogues seem awkward and ridiculous. Her facial expressions and the way she delivers the lines make the character seem careless, unsympathetic and downright bizarre.
Cronenberg could've easily done something about it though.
"I'd say most of them make sense if you give them a just a little thought."
I'd say a lot of it is silly if you just give it a little thought. And I'm not even referring to the sci-fi part, which I do like.
What I'm wondering is why could the ship material hurt him?
Could it be that the ones who constructed that ship and sent him away saw him as a threat so they got rid of him?
No, Alex will eventually kill himself if he keeps free soloing.
I felt sorry for her because he didn't seem to appreciate her. He wasn't even denying that she's basically a servant and cum bucket to him.
Alex is clearly a narcissist with very little empathy for others. A jerk, possibly sociopathic, but to be fair to him he's very honest about how he thinks and how he is.
Sanni has no one to blame but herself if he mistreats her. She could get just about any guy she wants, but she seems to be in a phase where she wants to challenge herself by dating a callous, daredevil weirdo who lives in a van.
