I agree. Let's have Brainiac or even Mister Mxyzptlk!
From one veteran to another,
"Thank You For Your Service"
True ... However, I thought that the film makers should have stopped before they gave us the abominations that were "Jaws 3" and "Jaws the Revenge". (I felt so sorry for Lorraine Gary being roped into that film, as well as Sir Michael Caine.
Never thought of that. "independence Day" goes without saying.
Of course, I am a lot older than most posters on here, so my film experience goes back further.
Not bragging. Just stating a fact.
Seagal72 - Some people just don't get that. Golfaddict is probably a kid.
I am also 72 years old, youngster.
In all his years as an actor, James Cagney was stereotyped as a gangster, due to his several portrayals as underworld characters. But, he was also a song and dance man, as evidenced by "Yankee Doodle Dandy", for which he won the Best Actor Oscar.
It doesn't bother me that some mule headed poster decides that just because he hates musicals or thinks that people who like them are "so f**king gay", that he should attack someone for their likes and dislikes.
In this age of supposed "inclusiveness", it amuses me that the very people who cry out against other people about disrespecting others, are the first to do so.
Henry was fine. But, I think Tyler Hoechlin is doing a good job.
It's life. With all its warts and problems. When a sitcom ventures into real life, it's not for everyone, but, as I have experienced in my life, things like this does happen.
I tend to think that this show, as others of the highest caliber, are not afraid to delve into "real life".
It's what makes good sitcoms so good.
Because of what I read in an interview, I think that Raimi was inspired by the Three Stooges. He could have jokingly called it "Army of The Undead Three Stooges"
Of course you realize that this movie is a send up to The Three Stooges?
I am 72 years old as of this writing, and nowhere in all those years did the term "woke" rear its ugly head, until 5 years ago!
Yes, most everyone back then would tell you that something like rape really wasn't condoned, but we had other words for what we term as "woke" nowadays.
The best word I heard was "sympathetic" to someone's plight, as we all had things that bothered us.
For those of you who think that because of the mistakes made in these movies, the popularity of this trilogy dropped, I present for your edification:

Does Michael hate her for the passionate scenes she did with Antonio Banderas in the Zorro movies? I doubt it. Not unless Michael is a vain, low self-respecting idiot. And I don't think that he is.
They are actors playing a part.
That looks like a picture that was snapped by an a$$hole paparazzi when the lighting was less than flattering.
I agree. SOME people are idiots.
I seldom read tabloid trash papers' accounts of celebrities' "skeletons in the closet".
Remember what Christ said "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone!"
We ALL have skeletons in our closets! Mistakes we made in the past that we wish we could erase. Something said in the heat of anger that we wish we could take back.
Since most tabloids look for sensationalism to sell their stuff, I tend not to care what they say.
I find it especially egregious when they try to scare us into a certain direction, as it seems most of the media does now.
I cannot even watch the national weather without the weather person seeming to spell out gloom and doom about a regular thunderstorm.
There was no such thing as "woke" back then. Why do people constantly try to push 2024 values on old movies? What's next? Blaming the shark for being a predator in "Jaws"?
If we successfully rid ourselves of every inference of violence and horror to make this world a more pleasant place (and that is a tall order that will NEVER happen), then the old adage is true - "If we don't learn from the mistakes of the past, we are doomed to repeat them".
Very true
I must have missed him. Who did he play? The only time I have seen Elon Musk in a movie was his cameo in "Iron Man 2".
Thanks for this in-depth dive into "Miles Jonn-Dalton". I thought there was something "off" about this guy.
