I'm terrible at humor on the internet

Re: Uncommon Opinions

how can they have a review score already when the movie doesn't come out til tomorrow? As usual I'm probably misunderstanding something

Critics see films before they are released to the general public, for this very reason. If it's a good film, then good reviews will help build interest for the movie.

Monty Python isn't funny.

I'm always weary of pre-release buzz. It seems like pre-release screenings start the marketing push to hype up the film. Of course most people will be easy on a film in that aspect so they can keep reviewing them early and market themselves as well.

Re: Uncommon Opinions

Neighbors looks terrible.

Not my type of movie, but the Deniro bit, especially with the guy behind Efron making faces kills me every time I see the preview.

I'm hoping it gets an Old School feel

Ahh, I was thinking Rotten Tomatoes was a fan review site

It's both, but their Tomatometer is based off critic reviews only:

Re: Uncommon Opinions

I was thinking more along the lines of everything going wrong for the main character. It's so annoying to me when relating to a protagonist, to see everything constantly going against him. Plus we have another "ugly guy with hot wife" situation. The whole "overreaction to the situation" bit plays a role too, but overall it's just frustrating when you KNOW everything is going to **** up and you can anticipate everything happening.

Pretty much this is how I think about it too. It really pisses me off when, in media, a person does what is the clear right thing to do and people act like they've committed the greatest injustice ever seen by mankind. That's just the kind of thing that bothers me, because I feel like that's the way society acts anyway and portraying it only legitimizes that behavior further. I don't know, maybe I'm completely backward and stupid, but that's just the way it feels to me.

Re: Uncommon Opinions

I like the feeling that the game I'm playing is part of an actual TV broadcast, so I sit through almost all of the cutscenes and between pitch action in a game of MLB The Show.

A typical game for me takes about 2 hours to play, and I wouldn't want it any other way.

I haven't seen enough to say definitively that I don't find them funny but what I have seen hasn't been anything special.

Re: Uncommon Opinions

I find Helena Bonham Carter and Eva Green very attractive in some weird, ****ed up way.

HBC makes sense because of Fight Club, but I don't know who the other chick is. Seriously if there's ever been an attractive role for a completely ****ed up girl, it's Marla Singer.

Spoiler

But only their weird, crazy roles lol. Like HBC in Harry Potter, Les Mis, Sweeney Todd, etc. Eva Green is in the new 300 movie, and looks damn good.

Re: Uncommon Opinions

Why is it weird to think Eva Green is unattractive?

I think she is smoking hot. And is...*ahem*...very good in the new 300.
