Did you see the one where they keep insulting each other?
Only the gentle are ever really strong.
One of the biggest disappointments of the year is Passengers getting terrible reviews. That is one that I've been looking forward to for ages. Such a shame.

I'm watching Assassin's Creed in theaters. DGAF what the reviews turn out to be.

It's currently at 32%.Oh no, really? I've been looking forward to this one for awhile now.
Some of my favorite reviewers have disliked it as well. People are saying it's a mess.

I know! I loved what else I've seen of the director's, including Headhunters and The Imitation Game. And Passengers had such a great concept, too. But it also sounds like it's a film that's been handled badly.It's currently at 32%.Oh no, really? I've been looking forward to this one for awhile now.

Watched Sully last night. I thought it was a really good movie. Had me captivated throughout. And interesting to get a sort of inside view of the events.
Exactly! Another reason why I was looking forward to seeing it. The only Tyldum film I've seen is The Imitation Game, which I loved. I've been dying to see Headhunters forever.I know!

Like always, I will have to see Passengers for myself to see where they went wrong.

Oh, boy. You knew this was going to happen somewhere along the line.

Let's see how Blade Runner goes first...
That's my thinking too. Kind of like how people backed off of Blomkamp after Chappie. If Blade Runner fails, the studio might be a little leary of Denis.

Ughhh Chappie. That is a taste that will never leave my mouth, like Barlow's blood.

I'm guessing you haven't seen The Huntsman: Winter's War or Inferno?
I kinda liked Hail, Caesar! I get your reasoning though. It definitely could have been more.
I haven't seen Huntsman, but I've seen Inferno. It wasn't great, but I didn't hate it. I was having a good night with friends and it elevated the film for me. If I hadn't seen it in the that scenario, it would have probably made it. I was also expecting it to be terrible, so my expectations were low.I'm guessing you haven't seen The Huntsman: Winter's War or Inferno?

I had read the book which was not great itself but one interesting thing about the book compared to the movie is in the endI haven't seen Huntsman, but I've seen Inferno.

I kinda liked Hail, Caesar! I get your reasoning though. It definitely could have been more.They completely changed the somewhat interesting ending for a hack Hollywood ending. Insanely frustrating after sitting through a sub par film. They also tacked on a useless love story. ugh, still bitter about that one!spoiler

I'm not sure if we've ever discussed this before, but I've wanted to talk about this for a while. If we have, just ignore me.
Over the years, we have discussed every aspect of film on these boards. Most commonly, directors, actors, and composers. One thing that rarely gets discussed is the studio. I wanted to highlight A24 and the amazing films they released in 2016 alone:
Green Room
The Witch
The Lobster
Swiss Army Man
American Honey
Moonlight
What they're doing is really important for the film industry right now. In a world where more and more original films are being ignored, A24 continues to produce high quality, unique material. Their studio might just be the last remaining bright light and in an industry that is starting dim a little bit.

Agreed. If I know it's an A24 release I pretty much have to see it.
Hmmm. Okay...

I know it's early, but there is a scene with a CD player in Split that is most likely to be used in one of those year-end mashups that we love so much. Guaranteed.
When I watch movies now, I sometimes see a scene and I think. "Yup, that's the one that will represent film x,y,z in those movie mashups." The scene I'm referencing is sure to be it.
