Why would Obi-Wan do that when his force ghost was smiling with Anakin's at the end of ROTJ? Was he smiling because he was thinking about slicing Anakin up again during a ghost blow job? Yes. I've always associated her with an upward direction since her work in Boogie Nights. I know it's evident now that the weekend has passed. Try to imagine it from a studio exec perspective, though: The Rock, R-rated comedy based off a successful syndicated TV show, cast of attractive young people - what could go wrong? You're telling me that a movie was all about its main character? Interesting. Everyone else has already made the point, but the camerawork was one of the strongest aspects of this well-made film. How can you say it was tense and uneasy while criticizing the way it was shot? No joke, I jumped out of my seat and cheered when she first appeared. No, it wasn't advertised as a sequel, but you point out some of the surface similarities that caused the mix-up. Similar period, Depp's investigator role, somewhat similar dark aesthetic. Some reviews around the time pointed this out. Also it might have had the misfortune of timing, with its release doing decent business for the Halloween season before dropping sharply once the early November films started rolling out. I'll let you guess which did better box office between this film and Monsters Inc. I recall a lot of public confusion over this film because it was mistaken for a sequel to Sleepy Hollow. Snatched Snappers. Schumer doesn't have nearly the amount of recognition to sustain a straight to video career. She'll just fade away back into stand-up and maybe keep up acting with the occasional supporting role or cameo. No wonder Dolph Ziggler dumped that slag. Thanks for saving me eight bucks, John. If you like to see Hugh Jackman yelling a lot, this is up there with The Fountain. Time will tell how it ultimately performs, but right now it's paddling against the current. So he said he's willing to work again? Remarkable. Clearly a song designed as a double tribute to Perry Saturn and Damien Sandow. His most successful films are often the ones where he stars alongside an ensemble of popular stars and/or in an established series. The pieces seem to be aligned for this film, but poor reviews, lackluster advertising and a dearth of popular co-stars might hinder this movie's prospects of staying afloat long enough to profit. Combine that with the wave of upcoming big summer movies in the next few weeks, and it's hard to imagine Baywatch will be able to tread water. Xavier told them all to go hide in the bathroom, and he forgot to let them out until after they'd died. A high quality black and white presentation indeed, though it's readily apparent that the film was lit and shot with color in mind. I noticed a particular flatness to the picture at times, which perhaps resulted from a short amount of time to prepare this version. The de-colorized Fury Road exhibits an image that retains the boldness and texture of the original version, probably because of a higher level of contrast in the original image. Good stuff nevertheless.
