Re: Nukkad

Did folks here watch that very disturbing graphic video of an ex-cop from Mesa, AZ, shoot & kill an individual in the hallway while the individual is sobbing & begging for this life? I started watching part of it and could not finish it. It seems like the ex-cop was acquitted by the jury. Truly puts...

Re: Non-Indian Films discussion thread...

Supposedly Jumanji reboot is hilarious, light weight good-time movie. Not a great movie but good...suitable for almost the entire family (except for kids less than around 8 years old). No surprises that SW: TLJ is expecting a $200 Mil opening weekend BO.

Re: Nukkad

It seems like US economy is back on solid footing. Apparently, this month is the 86th straight of job increase/gains. Unemployment is back around to 4%. Markets are roaring. Supposedly labour market is strong again. Good for folks who are in US. I guess some executives orders by Trump, especially on...

Re: Non-Indian Films discussion thread...

Now JL is another crapfest apparently. I haven't even bothered watching it. TBH...you are better off waiting for the Bluray release. Signs indicate that WB will release an extended cut with deleted scenes. Should provide a better viewing experience. Should be out by end of March. Apparently, the VF...

Re: Non-Indian Films discussion thread...

In BvS, there was no need for Superman to be the one to drive the Kryptonite spear in to Doomsday. WW easily could have done it while Supes used her lasso to hold/restrain Doomsday. But Synder said in an interview that the reason he wanted to kill Superman to is have him experience what it is to be ...

Re: Non-Indian Films discussion thread...

The dream sequence would have made sense after watching JL. The dream was about Earth being overtook by forces of Apokolips and terra-farming the Earth to look like the Apokolips (the fires shooting out of Earth, darkish orange skies, the Parademons etc) and Superman is working presumably for Darksi...

Nobody really dies in comic books...always find a way to bring them back. But yeah in movies, it may be difficult...not impossible to justify a resurrection (except Supes in JL apparently). If I am taking a gander, I'd guess they will be shown as retiring while making way for younger bloods to take ...

Yeah...Peter Quill has never visited Earth since his abduction almost 30 years (?) ago. So it should be interesting to see his reactions when he visits Earth after a long time.

I will probably go and watch SW The Last Jedi but absence of Harrison Ford is a huge bummer to me. Yeah...the rehash of plot was lame. I hope there will be changes in the upcoming mo...

Just watched A3 IW trailer...so pumped up. Thanos CGI looks as bad as Steppenwolf's. Hopefully, they will polish it up before release. MCU/Disney have JL as an example of what not to do!

Re: Non-Indian Films discussion thread...

JL was complete bokwas, all these comic book movies have started to look like each other, with predictable plot, same aesthetics for characters and CGI effects etc. And what's the deal with cubes? Transformers and Thor/Avengers had the same cube thing. All Suerphero movies are about prevail of good...

Re: Non-Indian Films discussion thread...

You can squarely blame the WB Execs for the disaster that is JL. Either they should have continued with Zack Synder's JL movie or rescheduled the release indefinitely. Synder's product would have had much worse rating with critics but at least we wouldn't have gotten a wonky CGI, mess that is the cu...

Just saw a JL TV spot on HBO. Apparently, JL is being released in theatres on Fri Nov 17th in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu along with English on screens in India. BTW, early SM reactions of JL have been positive. Not great but good, FUN entertainment. It has its flaws but delivers mostly on the characters &...

Apparently, Thor Ragnarok had the 2nd best opening weekend in India this year raking in around $5 Million...compared to $56 Million from Chinese BO. No wonder, India is very low on sights of most Hollywood studios. Probably not a bad thing or earth shattering loss.
