Elodie Yung is everything I wanted Elektra to be. Best episode so far, and Matt didn't even need to wear the suit
Probably the best episode of the series. That fight scene was fucking amazing.
and the award for worlds slowest elevator goes to...
I found it difficult to find a music documentary I was excited to watch. I like 30 Seconds To Mars and Jared Leto so I thought this could be the best bet. I was so delightfully surprised. This was an eye-opening, thought-provoking, inspiring, emotional, engaging diary of Leto, his band mates and their struggle with their record label. I learned a lot about the music industry and record labels and was actually left quite heart-broken that creativity is prisoned by this capitalistic behaviour by businesses. A great balance between factual interviews and moving story about talented and driven artists that really touched me and left me thinking about my own dreams and supporting other people's, too. Plus, beautiful cinematography which always makes a story that much more breath-taking.
Makes me cry every time.
An exceptionally beautiful movie. Emily Blunt's performance was exemplary, not only does she resemble Victoria immensely, but her manner and tone was just superb. I love how this movie focuses on not only her love with albert, the driving force in her early life, but her desire to improve the life of her subjects. It portrays VIctoria's devotion to her people and her husband, and the turbulent struggles of her early reign. This movie is just so exceptional, it makes me cry every time.
Loved it! Emily Blunt was brilliant, especially towards to end. And this actually made me read up a lot on Queen Victoria and the Royal family in general ..
I love how they've managed to link slightly adjusted common fairy tales into one big magical world, and continuing a consistent link to our "real" world.
Fantastic series, can highly recommend it.
Next up, season 2 ;)
OKAY SO IT ENDED WITH A CLOCK. A FREAKIN' CLOCK. arE YOU KIDDING ME
“Now you’ve made your choice,and you’re going to regret it forever,and all you’ll have.. is an empty heart and a chipped cup.”
The problem with big tentpole pictures like this one is expectation. People already build up a picture of the film in their heads thanks to the trailers and all the hype surrounding the film. I, myself, was hyped up for this film following the exciting trailer.
The critics have not been happy and many people have dusted down their computers to criticise the film. Again, the problem I am sure was expectation. This film is good, sometimes excellent. Oscar Isaac is fearsome as Apocalypse, though I felt the character could have been more apocalyptic. The action is great and once again Quicksilver steals the show, in terms of story and lightness of tone.
I was disappointed so see one character die - why do they always have to die? - will there be a Days of Future Past 2 to bring him/her back? - no, but can't we just have a little but of fun instead of creating dramatic tension by killing somebody?
The film is flabby at times, a little off with the pacing during the first hour, and needs a serious injection of adrenalin at times. However, the film does kick up a gear and there are many crowd pleasing moments before the films end. There are a lot of characters in the film but that isn't a bad thing. Most are used well, others are merely cameos - hello, the Blob!
So what if this isn't even the best X-Men movie, although arguably it comes a close second or third. Its not the end of the world if it isn't the best superhero movie this year. Civil War comes out on top and Batman V Superman wasn't as awful as people made out. The film is very good and on reflection will be seen as one of the best movies of the summer, I am sure. I hold no hope for the Turtles film, am not sure on the new Ghostbusters, and Warcraft and Assassins Creed are an unknown property to film (though they both look ace - I'm just trying not to get carried away with hype).
Enjoy the film for the spectacle it is and remember a time not too long ago when superhero films were looked down upon by Hollywood execs.
I think this show is funny. Obviously it isn't really about superhero stuff, it's about super powered being pulling off greater and greater crimes with no consequences. Don't watch this expecting teen titans or young justice and you will probably like it.
It's not supposed to be taken seriously, and that is great. It's not as /dark/ as the original Teen Titans tvshow (or most of DC tvshows, to be honest) but it's silly and funny and that was probably the point. It's a great silly show that makes you laugh. There's nothing wrong with that.
Why not cast Grant Gustin for the part? He is definitely the greatest Barry Allen ever, and a great young actor!
Edit 2022: OK, Ezra, move aside, it's Grant's turn!
I do not deny Ezra was good too, and that the last seasons of Flash have been week sauce (I do agree that most baddies are converted to good after a nice speech, nonetheless I'll keep watching it till the end, I'm that kind of viewer...), but Grant is an established Flash, great actor and apparently a calmer human being than Ezra at the moment. :P
Sorry, I'm team Grant! :)
Coulson rules!!!
What a funny video, you gotta love those One-Shots.
The traditional viewings continue for the 31 Days Of Horror! Always a delight.
Love this movie! Watch it every Halloween :)
Watched it twice in a row when I first got the Blu-ray. (the second time with the audio commentary) I love it and watch it every Halloween.
Not terrible, not great, just... fine. Easily the worst of the new trilogy. Script-wise it was a real letdown from DoFP and First Class, and Apocalypse as a villain is stereotypical and brings nothing new to the table. Oscar Isaac was so wasted in this role.
While being a complete deus-ex-machina, the Quicksilver scene is again the best in the movie.
I didn't know anything beforehand about the character but after that perfomance in Civil War and some of the casting news I'm very excited about this movie!
I can't wait for this!!!!
highly underrated show!
it's written cleverly and keeps entertaining unlike other shows that get boring over time.
the character development is good.. particularly of the main character where they show his past!
it's just like The Mentalist which has a main story line which continues in the background while at the same time every episode has a new case.
this show has a lot of potential and i hope it gets renewed for a second season.
i think it deserves it.
Best this year
I wish TV companies would stop cancelling good shows!
Loved it !!!❤️
The first episode was quite boring but I gave it a second chance and... I loved it! It's a pity it got cancelled (specially after the events at the end of the season). :(
Definitely Marvel's best film so far. I enjoyed every single minute of it.
Season 2 is a complete garbage
