@MrsJCBrave picked that one no doubt.
Nah... JCB's a big Efron fan.
I mean he's not as bad as he was when he first started but idk that I'd say I'm his fan
I just can't do digital purchases yet. Same with books, rather have the hard copy. I know Blu-Rays eventually won't matter but I love Criterion and I love having this hobby of collecting great films.
I have a huge book shelf stuffed to it's maximum with movies. I'd like to see my collection if I actually didn't care what the movie was.
"Arrival": good "what if?..." scenario where a story is still Hollywoodized enough to have a military which acts like deaf and narrow-minded retards but gives more attention to the question of communicating with ETs rather than handjobbing rednecks with a paranoid gun fetish- whom we now know are 48% of our population. Extra points for casting Amy Adams (trust me on this, kiddies: when you get older, the spectrum of hot chicks becomes broader and you will welcome that). A bit cerebral in it's central theme of how time is perceived. 8/10 for anyone who isn't a flag-humping nationalist baboon because they're gonna hate not being the hero of the story instead of a college linguistics professor.
way better than I expected, worth renting
Nah.
I respect myself too much to watch a Zac Efron movie.
Still pissed I wasted my time and money on Neighbors. That was the final straw for me when it comes to Efron. He and Rogen owe me for that one.
I like the Adam dude from Workaholics, but he's always going to play the same type of character... and I much prefer to watch him on Workaholics than anything else.
Has Efron ever been in a good movie? Just curious.
I used to like Aubrey Plaza, but I feel like she's just another sellout now taking on roles like this and in that other garbage Efron movie Bad Grandpa (no I didn't see it, I'm smarter than that).
Adam plays the exact opposite character when on Modern Family.
So much salt.
The movie was supposed to be thought-provoking but was really just straight forward. It was a solid movie and technically sound but that's it. Just like the director's last work, Sicario, it was a well-crafted film but was very hollow when it came to the narrative side.
I did think it was a bit lazy to just brush over the fact that learning the alien language somehow made time non-linear. Memories of the daughter were presented as having existed before meeting Abbott and Costello, so now the non-linear concept is even more confusing.

isnt this just a remake of the 1996 Charlie Sheen classic?
LOL
I personally loved that movie and the horrific sequel starring Hedi from Hermans Head... but I totally get if others would not agree.
You hating like crazy right now.
Anyone that didn't like Neighbors doesn't get to talk about funny movies.
He was perfect in that.
Mike and Dave was good for stupid humor too. He was better in that.
Efron sucks in dramas and isn't a great actor- but much like Channing Tatum, he's a lot better in comedy.
Just saw the Spider-Man Homecoming trailer... looks good. Won't be seeing it when it comes out, though.
To be fair, I will only be seeing 3-4 movies in the theater: Guardians, Thor, SW 8... not entirely sure if I'll throw in a 4th.

IF they were to remake Back to the Future - though they shouldn't - what kind of car should the Time Machine be? DeLorean is not an option.
Of course, it'd depend on which manufacturer is backing it.

Watched Suicide Squad last night. Hated Leto's Joker. I mean, Jesus Christ. Just missed the mark on literally everything aside from the hair being green. That said, I didn't hate the movie. It was decent fun despite some issues. Not sure it's something I'd ever watch again though.
I agree, Sicario was so driven on one narrative that the story was boring by the end of the movie.
