    I still don't understand the dislike for Guardians 2.

    Is there a lot of dislike for it? Letterboxd seems pretty happy with it.

    When you have a problem with Kurt Russel, you have a PROBLEM WITH ME.

    I remember the consensus on MC being that it is bottom tier Marvel, with Iron Man 2 and Thor: The Dark World.

    The critics liked it significantly less than the original, but I felt it was a pretty good sequel; I mean, a lot of the novelty of the characters is gone, so it was never going to feel as fresh, but you can say that about a lot of sequels, and at least it was more visually impressive, with that amazing usage of color, and it still packed a lot of emotion into its runtime, as you can see:

    I love both of the GOTG movies.

    And it's happened once again
    I'll turn to a friend
    Someone that understands
    And sees through the master plan
    But everybody's gone
    And I've been here for too long
    To face this on my own
    Well, I guess this is growing up

    Part 2 also has one of those MCU moments that makes me insta-ugly cry.

    Also thought Vol. 2 was better, tho still flawed in places (a lot of it centered on its handling of Mantis). I extend a lot of courtesy for Kurt Russell.

    Laughing at this RT summary for Constantine:

    "Despite solid production values and an intriguing premise, Constantine lacks the focus of another spiritual shoot-em-up: The Matrix."

    Oh yes, RT? Constantine was trying to be like some kind of Matrix Exorcist? How weird. There's a whole lot to enjoy in Constantine, even with its flaws. It's got quite some style and is just plain well made.

    Taserface was so over the top for me, even in this movie. Even tho it's intentional to contrast the new captain with Yondu and his developments in this movie. It's like the Village argument: "Oh but their acting is so bad because they're like doing theater and aren't good at being old-timey!" It....still sucks tho.

    Can anyone tell me if Letterboxd posters cripplegate and SODA CHAMP (aka brand-upon-the-brain aka KingPizzaFrog) are Match Cutters?

    I think cripplegate is Stay Puft, but no clue about Soda Champ.

    Any ideas?

    cripplegate is Stay Puft. They have the exact same favorite films of 2020, posted around the same time. Not sure about the other one.

    Does an actor's salary factor into a film's budget, or are salaries separate from the production budget?

    As far as I know they figure into the production budget.

    Mamoru Hosoda:

    The Girl Who Leapt Through Time - 5.5
    Summer Wars - 2.5
    Wolf Children - 7
    The Boy and the Beast - 4
    Mirai - 4



    Out of all the anime movies I've seen, Hosoda's are the most anime, and consequently the most annoying.
