300 was damn good.

Man of Steel was good.

Everything else? kinda meh at best.
Going to disagree with that assessment.

Watchmen is easily is his best. Dawn of the Dead 2nd. Man of Steel 3rd.

Making zombies who run isn't exactly a great movie. meh.

I thought Watchmen wasn't very highly thought of.

It isn't but I really like it. I think its IMDB is actually right next to 300 a movie which I don't think highly of but I guess its all down to opinion. Its metascore is actually higher than 300 which surprises me a little, actually.

Me too. Really enjoyed Watchmen. I don't get the hate for the film that so many have.

I also liked Man of Steel. It had its flaws--like too much Crow and not enough Costner--but it's definitely the best DC has done since the Nolan Batman movies.

When I saw the trailer for Watchmen....I was excited to see it. Then I watched it and damn near fell asleep.

Spawn is finally a Go.

The film, which was announced earlier today, will team up McFarlane (in his directorial debut) with all-star horror producer Jason Blum and Blumhouse Studios. Blumhouse has produced such hit films as Paranormal Activity and The Purge, along with their sequels.

McFarlane sat down with SYFY WIRE to discuss the process of bringing this film to screens over 20 years after the original Spawn and tells us he hopes for the film to hit theaters in late 2018.

Watched Dr. Strange yesterday.

It was ok.

Don't love mystics or messing with time so the ending was kinda meh for me.

Although trapping the Dormamu in a time loop was fun and clever.

But I also don't get the ending. Mordo was so purely good he became evil? WTF?

I got the feeling that he didn't like the fact that more and more folks were 'special' like him. He wanted to be the only one with the special skill set.

Watched it today, liked it very much. Some fun, crazy imagery and the guy who played Strange captured his character perfectly.

As to Baron Mordo, the reasons given for his change were pretty flimsy, but he is gonna turn out to be a not very nice guy. If they stick with the comics, Dormammu is going to be his new best friend.

The Tick on Amazon only has a few episodes but its pretty amazing once you get past the pilot. Very well written and very quotable.
