The Last Jedi had an annoyingly obvious political agenda instead of an actual plot. Mad Max: Fury Road didn't. Not that its plot was terribly original but it's not shoving anything in anyone's throat while screaming "Meeee toooo!!!" warcries. It's just a good cinematic experience without being really exceptional in any areas.

The Last Jedi did, Force Awakens, not so much. And The Last Jedi’s agenda wasnt there because of a female lead.

No, it wasn't. Rey is just a terribly poor character played by a below average actress, these are all of her sins though.

I dont think the acting is significantly terrible, she’s no Meryl Streep, sure, but then again, Mark Hamill wasnt Dustin Hoffman either. It’s adequate for the genre. We just notice the flaws more because Star Wars lost its charm a long, long time ago.

Rey's awesome, and the actress who portayed her, also awesome. Anyone who disagrees needs to seek psychiatric help. I would have rey's babies; she is quite the delectable creature.

The only possible feminism i spotted in mm: fr, was the group of women out in their own little group in the wastes. And obviously, it was because they didn't want to be passed around or hoarded by men in a post-apocalyptic scenario. All perfectly explainable; there was nothing at all sexist about mm:fr; and claims to the contrary is insane. If the director is himself a feminist, that would certainly explain why he chose this movie to make: the subject matter and context were too good to pass up. He didn't make the MOVIE sexist; humanity would undoubtedly already revert to that if society had collapsed. Pretty basic stuff, actually.

I’m pretty sure she’d use the Force to force you out.

Watched edge of tomorrow, very satisfying time loop story. There is always a new layer to explore and the time resets are used nicely. I didn't like Tom Cruise's character at first but he goes through a lot by the end of the film. Quite liked the female lead as well.

The ending is pretty convenient though. I call bs on that.

The last movie I watched: El Chuncho, Quien Sabe ? also called A Bullet for the General. Good spaghetti western, especially the ending. Gian Maria Volonte

I'm still not convinced that it isn't. And the fact that Ryan Reynolds voices Pikachu doesn't help.

This looks like Mutant Chronicles. I thought Pokemon were cute cuddly creatures... why didn't they start with an actual family friendly live adaptation of the TV series? It feels like some creepy and dark fanfic wet dream gone real. Do they eat them? Use them as weapons? It seems so... what you'll tell me they are all vegan? Or they eat cows while no Pokemon?

This is so disturbing, they look like little nightmares...

The final Aquaman trailer came out a couple days ago. Pretty awesome:

I hope it turns out to be a good movie to help DC change direction but I'm hesitant to think so. The appealing graphics and underwater battles might be the most it has to offer.

It might be a case of "too much in too short time". I mean origin story + battle for the throne + Black Manta seems enough material for a 3 hours flick.

Then again DC needs a good hero movie, and it's probably the first DC movie in a while I'm considering to visit a cinema for.

Looks good but then so did justice league. I'd like to think they have gotten some hints by then but I cannot bring myself to care all that much. Wonderful setting though.

I heard Black Manta isn't suppose to be in this movie much and it's really about Orim. But then... why are they setting up expectations for him in the trailer? *sigh*

Trailers always have a sweet jam and lots of epic eyecandy and then the movie comes out and you're in the theater giving a bert stare.  When DC stops trying to smash two or three movies into one movie you end up with Wonder Woman and a movie people actually like.
