Dalton by far is my favorite Bond. He's the most like the character in the novels and actually puts a lot of depth into the character. Charlie and Mac destroying those kids was the funniest thing I've seen in months. I must have watched it ten times. They shoehorned that in towards the end, however. It came out of nowhere in the last third of the movie. They should have shown hints throughout the flick that he had these tendencies. Being an addict isn't the same thing. There should have been something that really explained it earlier. Like in the first half a couple comments such as "Lady Gaga, I drink because it blacks out the pain. If I quit drinking, the pain isn't numbed and I just can't live without it." It definitely needed more Joe Esposito. I bet you're fat. Roxy, God bless ya, you were a good hoor... In those bloopers with the interviewer, the actor was going off script and reacting to what they were saying. He was so droll they couldn't keep it together. Would have been sweet seeing him getting chewed up. Like the assistant getting ripped apart in Jurrasic World. I didn't see that one coming. Covenant, because after all the deserved crap Prometheus got they decided to go back to yet another alien slasher movie that essentially blended Alien, Aliens and Prometheus. They even gave it back the Alien brand in the title. Still was crap - nothing new to see here. The only way this @#$@show can go forward is to finally got back to what earth looks like in this time, then have the dang aliens show up and wreak havoc on the planet. He admitted he did steroids for the Major League movies, and I'm all but certain he did it for this. Dee as Arya. Couldn't agree more. After this and The Man from UNCLE the search is over... Cavill is Bond. Oprah is the biggest narcissist in the entire world. She is so self-absorbed and conceited she built her own magazine called, you guessed it, "Oprah," and every darn cover is of herself and only herself. Ironically there is a food truck called Jurassic Pork that serves tasty pulled pork sandwiches. The casting for this is easy. Aubrey Plaza and Christina Ricci as sexy hunting chicks. Heck, toss in Nick Offerman and Megan Mullally as a hunting couple. Bruce Dern has gotta be in there. Adam Driver looks like a hick, so grease him up and toss a John Deere hat on him. The problem is these movies make a ton of money (which isn't a problem) so they want to keep making them, but there is only so much you can do to make it movie-plausible. Bringing dinosaurs to the mainland is a great idea, because there is only so much you can do on an isolated island. But how do you keep it interesting? They already showed how easy it is to wrangle these things up with some private mercenaries in both The Lost World and Fallen Kingdom. Imagine the entire US army and a bunch of rednecks with hunting gear putting them in their sights. Come to think of it, maybe that's the premise for the next movie. They are being hunted back into extinction and it's an allegory to how big game hunters are driving current species into extinction. I am a writer as well (three published novels and working on my fourth), and I also grew up reading comics. Through my lens, as you call it, I saw a movie about an immature grown-up who suddenly is thrust into a super-hero role. I took my 11-year old and she absolutely loved it. Look, I don't mind you having a different opinion from mine. I mean, Hudson Hawk is one of my favorite movies of all time, so i'm used to criticism. However, your comment was rude. Someone disagreed with you and you essentially called them childish, shallow and moronic. You'll never get anyone to respect your work or your opinion when you do that. Absolutely. The last two episodes could have been condensed to one without a problem, for instance. In fact, the last episode could have been a sweet five minute ending montage to the Rolling Stones' You Can't Always Get What You Want or Pink Floyd's Money. Wait, how is he innocent? He knew the kids were there, right? He didn't tell anyone. That scene with him shrunk in the school... I dunno why but that really got me. I was laughing hard. Nobody else in the theater did more than chuckle. I actually thought his response was concise, articulate, and correct. Not every marvel movie needs to be dark and morbid.
