    Agreed there.
    Thirded.

    It's the only remake I can think of where you cannot proactively guess the ending.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    My favorites of his are Dawn of the Dead and the owl animation film. Favroites as in legitimately-enjoyed-would-watch-again. I missed him when he has fun materials to play his visuals with.
    Midnight Run (1988) - 9
    The Smiling Lieutenant (1931) - 8.5
    The Adventures of Robinhood (1938) - 8
    Sisters (1973) - 6.5
    Shin Godzilla (2016) - 7.5

    I love Watchmen and Legend of the Guardians. I liked 300 when I was in high school but not sure if it would hold up now.

    Not sure if this needs its own thread, but now for something completely different (WITH HUMOR!!!!):

    The Boy, The Mole, The Fox and the Horse (Mackesy, 2022) 4.5
    Puss In Boots: The Last Wish (Crawford, 2022) 4
    Confess, Fletch (Mottola, 2022) 3.5
    M3GAN (Johnstone, 2023) 3.5
    Turning Red (Shi, 2022) 4.5

    That teaser is saving my spirit this morning.
    Quote Quoting Donald Glover
    I was actually just reading about Matt Damon and he’s like, ‘There’s a culture of outrage.’ I’m like, ‘Well, they have a reason to be outraged.’ I think it’s a lot of dudes just being scared. They’re like, ‘What if I did something and I didn’t realize it?’ I’m like, ‘Deal with it.’

    I saw this trailer for the first time before BvS, and it feels like showing Walk Hard to someone before they go off to watch some musical biopic.

    No kidding.

    In "anticipation" of this movie though! (What am I even ranking....)

    1. Watchmen (Theatrical)
    2. Dawn of the Dead
    3. Watchmen: Director's Cut (some arguably essential additions, but its flow and structure is way clunkier, some questionable added small bits, and to me the big Hollis Mason attack scene ends too awkwardly to defend its inclusion)
    4. Sucker Punch: Director's Cut
    5. 300
    6. Man of Steel (its first two-thirds might've landed it at #4)
    7. Sucker Punch (Theatrical)

    I don't know why I haven't seen all of Legends of the Guardians, but hey, seeing Dawn of Justice tonight in 70mm (which is a thing that was offered for some reason, non-IMAX), so maybe Ga'Hoole will be a nice pallette cleanser at home afterwards! Right? Riiiight?
    Last 11 things I really enjoyed:

    Speed Racer (Wachowski/Wachowski, 2008)
    Safe (Haynes, 1995)
    South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut (Parker, 1999)
    Beastie Boys Story (Jonze, 2020)
    Bad Trip (Sakurai, 2020)
    What's Up Doc? (Bogdanovich, 1972)
    Diva (Beineix, 1981)
    Delicatessen (Caro/Jeunet, 1991)
    The Hunger (Scott, 1983)
    Pineapple Express (Green, 2008)
    Chungking Express (Wong, 1994)

    We'll be seeing it in an hour and a half. I'm definitely done with DC after this, though.

    Holy shit, Zack Snyder is not very bright.

    Snyder was mystified when someone told him that they couldn’t think of a movie in recent memory that’s had as much collateral damage as “Man of Steel.” “I went, really? And I said, well, what about ['Star Wars: The Force Awakens']?” the director says. “In ‘Star Wars’ they destroy five planets with billions of people on them. That’s gotta be one of the highest death toll movies in history, the new ‘Star Wars’ movie, if you just do the math.”
    Bad guys killing people is not collateral damage. You idiot.

    I haven't seen Dawn of the Dead or the Owls stuff.

    All his comic book movies are terrible, including 300 and Watchmen. Not sure there is a big-name director out there whose sensibility (if we can call it that) I enjoy less.

    I'm guessing I may hate-watch this at some point, though. I like Batman.

    This was the worst of his "sensibility" multiplied by a million. It's mind-boggling.

    If there's one movie that needs more "humor and lightness" it's SUICIDE SQUAD

    Weird contrast between the rainbow title inserts and how drab the actual film looks.
