  4. Chalamet sounds amazing. I'm truly impressed.
  5. ^some interesting trivia didn't know about the pomeranians. love the tons of little details/tributes Cameron included 🤩
  6. I think people consider TITANIC more a love story than a desaster movie. What speaks volums for Leo & Kate intimate, tender, fun portrayls of Jack & Rose imo despite the still overwhelmingly sinking part of the movie. But it belongs #1 on any list for sure
  7. The hair Underrated era imo ❤️‍🔥

    He's always so... humble What do we think about Keanu Reeves as an actor? @Lilja K
  10. Not that I haven't watched THE FLASH. I think my parents actual liked this movie.
  11. Ah yes the good old times 😊 Never really was into any of those movies before or after disney honestly. But I admit Jackman kinda owns the Wolverine character aka was always the standout here.
  12. Uhm? Here’s what Disney owns after the massive Disney/Fox merger
  13. I'm not contradicting 🤣 ... but one of the reasons could be that apple is -I think the only- service that just offers originals and new stuff so the selection is kinda limited what's not a bad thing but people tend to watch what they already know lol A friend of mine for example always tells me after a shitty and/or hard day at work she doesn't have the energy to watch anything ambitious/challenging. She just wants to come home and relax on her couch. I think that's the main goal of most people. And I can relate to that. Sometimes I'm just like that too 😅
  14. I actually liked the first movie. The 2nd part was already meaningless and repeatable. But it's decided I skip this movie for "overgrown, infantilized man-children" and watch Costners Horizon instead 😄

    Me neither but I'm always in for a good double role. Curious how he will handle it.
  17. LMAO @Lilja K ‘Deadpool & Wolverine' is A Soulless and Pointless MCU Cash Grab [Review] Here’s a movie that represents everything that’s wrong about the modern blockbuster. It’s soulless and juvenile fan service and has no reason to exist other than to adhere to the nostalgic infantilism that’s ravaged our culture. I’m not even blaming audiences for taking the bait, they’ve just been programmed to gush over product like “Deadpool & Wolverine.” As the titular foul-mouthed “hero,” Ryan Reynolds acts and jokes like he’s 13 years old. The tongue-in-cheek humor here is to be expected, filled with f-bombs, and although there are few unfunny jabs at Marvel and Kevin Feige, the whole movie plays like a 2-hour parade of endless dick jokes. Also, don’t be fooled by the fact that it’s the first MCU movie to be R-rated, which, to many, signifies that it’s edgy. There’s nothing edgy about a movie that feels like the celebration of corporate greed. Maybe it was a bad idea to hire director Shawn Levy to helm this latest ‘Deadpool’ instalment — he brings nothing new to the table. Levy is a hired hand; he barely directs as much as just lets his Marvel overlords do the work for him. “Deadpool & Wolverine” is very similarly shot to the first movies but in a more flavorless fashion. It feels untouched by human hands. I wouldn’t be surprised if artificial intelligence was used to dictate the shot selection. As a visually driven filmmaker, Levy’s style is dull and uninspired — he over-directs the action, to the point where nothing feels effortlessly conceived, and everything turns out slick and flat. There’s a constant repetition to the way he directs the movie, almost as if we were watching a video game. The plot, if you want to call it that, revolves around Wade Wilson, alter ego to Deadpool, living a sad sack life as a car dealer, only to have his world turned upside down by a representative of the Time Variance Authority, played Matthew Macfadyen. Deadpool is tasked to track some older version of Wolverine, otherwise the world around him will collapse. It turns out Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) is now a bar-stool drunkard, and after much convincing, the duo hits the road, skipping through multiverses, gruesomely slaughtering villainous figures to save the planet, all strenuously set to cheesy pop hits. The main villain of the movie is Cassandra Nova (Emma Corrin), the twin sister of Charles Xavier (aka Professor X). In a way, Corrin is the only true bright spot in the film, maybe because she doesn’t utter a single joke, she plays it straight and villainous. Amidst all of the cheap jokes and gory violence, Jackman feels out of place here — the banter is never quite as clever, let alone as funny, as it thinks it is. Comic timing isn’t Jackman’s forte, especially when that goofball Reynolds keeps interrupting him at every second. This is a movie that tries too hard to be clever. A self-congratulatory parade of mediocrity. Also, what’s the point in having Deadpool and Wolverine constantly stabbed and shot, hundreds of times, all throughout the movie if they just regenerate and quickly heal from these wounds? The stakes are nonexistent. It all just leaves you numb and uninterested. However, the raison d’etre for “Deadpool & Wolverine” seems to be the nostalgic celeb cameos. A slew of well-known actors show up, and based on the reactions of the guy sitting next to me, orgiastic reactions are to be expected at weekend screenings. These cameos are such golden nuggets to fans that critics have been told not to reveal a thing about them in their reviews. No bad reviews will deter this movie from grossing $1 billion worldwide. It’s critic proof. It doesn’t matter that there’s absolutely no substance on display, nor will it be an issue that the editing is fit to please the mind of a skittish teenager. No, what matters are the cameos. And there are lots and lots of cameos in “Deadpool & Wolverine.” [D]
