Nothing wrong with that. I am too.

I actually like that it's a rocky movie - but Stallone is taking a backseat. He even gave Michael B. Jordan top billing and they are downplaying Rocky in the some of the ads.

I also love the scene when they are staring at the glass and he points at Creed's reflection and says

"You see this man here. This is the toughest opponent your ever going to face. I believe that to be true in the ring and true in life."

Bond opens up a week from Friday

If Creed flops (which I'm hoping) then the odds of Michael B Jordan jumping on the Star Wars bandwagon will greatly decrease. Nothing against the Rocky series I'm just hating what Jar Jar Abrams is doing to the franchise.

Will the Boba Fett spin off with Michael B. Jordan is a terrible idea.

Boba Fett is a non-altered clone of his father portrayed by Temeura Morrison, who is fact from New Zealand. George Lucas even had the original Boba's lines re-dubbed to match this development.

MIchael B. Jordan is ok as an actor. He sucked in fantastic Four. I could care less about the whole black/white thing. He just did nothing with the role.
I did not see Fruitvale Station, except for the actual shooting scene.

This right here. He went into FF4 not giving a shit about the role.

yup, At least Chris Evans - did something with it.

Anyways, it sucked.

On the Comic Front -

Supposedly the trailer for Captain America: Civil War will be attached to Spectre.

I hoping we get a look at GHOSTBUSTERS as well in the upcoming months.

I know people have their reservations about it, but the movie has already been made. Paul Feig as made some decent comedies. Melissa McCarthy can be funny, she can also be awful, but hey it's more GHOSTBUSTERS!!!

I can't wait to finally see a Ghostbusters trailer. Paul Feig works very well with Melissa McCarthy. I think he excels at ensemble comedies, so I don't think Ghostbusters will be as bad as people think

No it won't, people are throwing a fit at it for no reason.

truth be told, It was bill Murray that stalled the project for so long. Danny Ackroyd, Ernie Hudson , and Harold ramis were all up for a third outing, but Bill Murray had such a disappointing time with the 2nd film, that he was very hesitant doing a third film.

We are getting new GHOSTBUSTERS - ill admit the car and proton packs look a little disappointing, but those are just prop photos, need to see how they look in a final finished film.

Besides, all the haters will end up seeing it. Melissa McCarthy can be very funny - SPY, the heat - she can also be awful - identity thief, TAMMY was atrocious.
But im all for more GHOSTBUSTERS!!!!!

The people who are upset with the Ghostbuster movie probably are tired of recycled stories and/or movies that don't need updating. Shit, could you imagine The Breakfast Club being remade?

the majority of complaints im seeing regarding ghostbusters are the fact they cast all girls. they use the reboot/ remake thing to hide that, but deep down, that seems to be the main issue.

Frankly i could care about the remakes, just as long as they have some age. Cabin Fever is going to be remade and that movie isn't even 15 years old. At least Point break is over 20.

on the rails:

So Crimson peak came out and is fading fast. It's not that good. But I'm still a Guillermo Del Toro fan. So i re-watched Pan's Labyrinth again and usually when i watch a movie i read stuff off of IMDB, wikipedia about it. Well i came across this photo and was blown away. If you haven;t seen Pan's Labyrinth, i higlhy suggest you check it out. It's a dark , brutal Fairy tale of movie, filled with equal amounts of horror and wonder, despair and hope.

For those that have seen it.

This is what Ofelia looks like today

They're remaking Ocean's 11 with an all female cast...lol. It's not sexist to complain about remaking a movie with an all opposite sex cast from the original but it's bullshit for Hollywood to push a stupid topic on the audience.

Lol damn, you made me go read few reviews on the movie. That sucks about it. PL was good. Man, I used to have this fan made music video of Tool's 46 & 2nd to snippets of PL. Lost it when my hard drive crashed and the guy had repaired it never returned it.

FUUUUUUUUU, Ofelia looking mighty fine there.

What about a remake of a classic like the Goonies

[Fishpie]

Goonies remake is confirmed and honestly it's not a timeless classic. Great movie no doubt but it could easily be remade with little tweaks here and there that wouldn't really make it feel out of touch with the original plot.
