Nah, I was talkin' on since it's the first Marvel movie this year. We still got Caps and First Class coming up, but I was just saying that Thor was a good start.

Captain America and First Class might end up being better, but we'll see.

Rented Tron: Legacy...can anyone tell me what it is about CLU that just looks wrong? I know it's the "Uncanny Valley" but there's got to be a "He just doesn't look right, because..."

Otherwise, not a bad flick.

haven't seen it, but it could anything from lack of micro expressions, natural eye movements. Some of the clips I've looked up, the lip syncing on the CLU character looks a bit off, the mouth just don't move right or enough.

They are. I think the Definitive Box set is one of my all time favorite DVD box set purchases. Totally worthwhile.

Little Big Soldier

Jackie Chan rocked in this one, a very strong film on many levels

Yeah it's pretty awesome. The one I got came with a book that had kill counts and his badge.

Anyways personally I thought The Enforcer was a little eh. I mean it's not bad just not on par with the previous films. The villains weren't fleshed out too well which is my main issue with it. Sudden Impact is better, Eastwood actually directed it. The story is really good and Harry coins another one of his trademark lines in the film's climax. Deadpool is just silly and I'm not entirely sure the movie was being taken seriously at all. It has very early appearances by Liam Neeson and Jim Carrey which are fun to see. If you go in expecting goof you can probably enjoy it.

Skyline

I had read all sorts of reviews complaining about how terrible the movie was. I liked it. Most of the negative criticism said the movie "makes no sense" and viewers cannot understand it. That was what I liked about it. I like a complex movie that makes you think. However, it is nice sometimes to just kick back and fall into a confusing mess of action. The movie never lets you fully comprehend what is happening or why. That was half the fun for me.

I'm sure lots of people hated this movie. I think you have just go along for the ride and not ask questions because as soon as you do, the movie seems stupid.

Me too. I had a good, hearty laugh at myself when it ended and my reaction was, "WTF?? Just when they started explaining ****?!?". I laughed about that all night long.

The misleading thing about the movie is that you go in for a sci-fi, but you get horror.
