1. Foxcatcher 2. The Theory of Everything 3. Birdman pretty much the only three good movies I saw this year in the theaters.

I agree, and it's not even close. The fellowship was by far the best of all of the LOTR movies and Hobbit movies. Changing the ending of "The Two Towers" kinda soured that movie for me. Shelob belongs in TTT, not sandwiched into ROTK. And as much as I liked ROTK, it had a lot of cheese in it as...

I wholeheartedly disagree with this. I think the movies would be exponentially better if Han and Luke have vital roles in the new movies. Luke could take on the role of Obi-wan; still a badass but instilling wisdom and teaching the force to a new character. And you could have Han Solo kinda be...

Still wish they'd have given this to someone else besides Abrams. I was praying for a writer/director more in the mold of Irvin Kershner. Instead, we got a director more in the mold of Michael Bay.

I think the worst part by far besides the Elf/Dwarf love-in is the political bullshit going on in Laketown. It's awful, was never part of the original novel, and is completely unnecessary and doesn't add anything to the movie. And the retarded barrel fight scene, and the benny hill shit in...

They can just do what Lucas did for the prequels and put in Bobba fett's twin, son, clone, whatever. It'll suck.

I sure as hell hope so. I'll be honest, I hated what he did with the Star Trek reboot, so I'm hoping he redeems himself here, but after seeing that trailer, I'm not very optimistic.

Because it's a movie? And fuck anyone who thinks that light saber looks cool. It looks like shit. Abrams is about to take a giant dook all over the Star Wars franchise.

Is the main bad guy his parole officer?

Agree 100,000%.

Worst trailer of all time? Absolutely.

I agree. However, I don't think that it discredits the idea entirely, just validates that Brad is pretty much washed up in the industry. There will be another PvE group oriented game again, someday...

You missed out. Even with all of its flaws, it was a pretty fun game to play. Unfortunately, I doubt this game even reaches VG level of playability.

LOL! I don't know about that, but if you guys wanted to meet up and hang out at Parx some time, let me know.

Actually, I play totally at casinos, not online at all. I'd love to be able to play online, but I live in Pennsylvania, which still doesn't allow online gaming. I live in West Chester, PA. I play mainly at Harrah's Chester (now Harrah's Philadelphia), but also play at Delaware Park (which is a...

Yes, I read a lot of actual books, just not shitty romance novels disguised as Star Wars with power crystals in them. Now, please tell me about the Twilight series and how much I'm missing there because I didn't read that shit either, but I'm really fascinated about werewolves and vampires...

And after all that he ends the movie with "love is the greatest power in the universe!" That's an ending that only a cunt would enjoy.

I fucking wish. I make enough money that I don't need a real job. You always hope to take down a huge tournament, have extra bankroll to play in even bigger tournaments, get sponsors, etc. but that honestly is only like 1% of the actual poker world. Most of us just grind and try to eek out a...

I'm a professional poker player, and as much as I make fun of other people and how much they work, I actually wind up working twice as much (I log almost 70 hours a week playing cards, more if I'm playing in tournaments). The good thing with my job is, when I want to take time off, I can just...

Yes, Vader comments on Luke constructing his own light saber for five seconds, everyone in the audience is satisfied that Luke, being a jedi, would know how to construct one, and you move on. You don't have Luke do a forty five minute power point presentation on how he did it. That's the gay...

No, it's just about being intelligent enough to know a shitty movie when you see it. The only positive remarks I've seen anyone make about this movie is "wow, fancy special effects!" and "ooh, my seat was shaking from the sound!" I'm glad you're so easily amused. Simple minded people usually are.

Bingo. I've been saying this from the beginning, and getting roasted for it. Glad I'm not the only one who thinks Nolan is overrated as fuck.

Show me where in the movies they talk about crystals powering light sabers? Not everything in a story needs to be explained. No one really gives a fuck how light sabers are powered. fact is, it's cooler that they just exist than trying to explain how they are powered; either by lame ass...

Yeah, I get it, it's all gay. Those crystals damn well better be just right or the midochlorians aren't going to resonate right in those light sabers.People actually read this shit and liked it?

That be fine with me. I'd rather watch one great movie than three horrible ones.

Do you realize how fucking gay this sounds? Stealing DNA, light saber batteries, bad crystals? Thank God I never read these books.

The general is guarding the latrine.

Exactly my point. The beauty of "The Hobbit" is its simplicity. If PJ would have stuck to the source material, the movies would have been awesome.

The problem is you're trying to make sense of a Christopher Nolan screenplay. He's like Shakespeare with Down's Syndrome.

Harrison Ford told George Lucas once "George, you can type this shit, but you sure as hell can't say it." Great fucking line. Too bad no one had the balls to call Lucas out like this when he was making the prequels.

No doubt. They were "enjoyable" they just weren't nearly as good as the LOTR movies, and they should have been; especially since I think "The Hobbit" was actually a better story than the LOTR trilogy.

Just got back from a trip to New York to see this movie. Well worth the drive. It was amazing, easily the best picture of the year (so far). The acting was suburb (if you can get Tatum to act this well, you deserve an oscar for best director). They nailed the story. It also did a really good job...

Panoramic view too! This is side splitting comedy.

You nailed it.

Most people would be in a movie like LOTR (or the Hobbit) for free, or for minimal pay, but you still have days of shooting film and choreographing the scenes, which takes time and money. Much easier to just make the entire thing on a computer (except it looks like shit).

Damn, Jebus is ripped!

"The Hobbit" trilogy has cost almost 750 million dollars to make. The LOTR trilogy cost I think around 300 million to make, and even being made a decade earlier, looks a million times better than the Hobbit movies. Making everything in the movie CGI costs a lot more and looks a lot worse. So why...

The only thing that could have saved the prequels is if they were never made in the first place. Seriously, this is an example of making a story where there is none. It's just like Jerry Seinfeld once said: leave them wanting more. Instead, Lucas just shit out three awful movies with three...

I'll third this. The special effects in the LOTR movies put the Hobbit special effects to shame, much the same way the special effects from the original Star Wars movies (puppets and tiny models) put the CGI crap of the prequels to shame. It's painfully obvious in the Hobbit movies that the orcs...
