Movies

I'm 61 and loved Guardians. That and the Thor movies have so far been the best at recapturing the whole Silver Age in comics.

Posted by: tradermark on Feb 13, 23:21 in response to Quickslver99's post Personally I liked the movie....

Thor's sets paid homage to Jack Kirby's art of the period and Guardians nailed the humor that was prevelant at the time. Iron Man and Avengers take honorable mention.

So: Went to see Revenant again, and went ahead and ducked into a Deadpool screening. goodvibe61 Feb 13, 14:52

Gaurdians? Guardians. {nm} goodvibe61 Feb 13, 15:14

So how do you really feel about it? Buy BONDS Silver edition Feb 13, 15:53

I would expect nothing less from a 55 year old ;) {nm} Prophecy Feb 13, 16:12

Why is that? You generalize all 55 year olds into your little box, is that it? {nm} goodvibe61 Feb 13, 22:22

Glad to know you're incredibly mature, too much so to watch deadpool but not too mature to stay at a film for a hot chick. {nm} pygmydev Feb 13, 16:12

I don't think i'm really very mature. I don't feel old; I mostly just felt that, while i was watching it, DeadPool sucked for the most part. goodvibe61 Feb 13, 22:18

I'm surprised at, well, either at how well the marketing worked or how broad an interest the comic and relateds generated. second gary Feb 13, 16:39

I think Ryan Reynolds sold the movie. He is what made me want to see the movie. His humor. He's great at crass Plus Ladies Love RREYN. Dorfman Feb 13, 16:43

it's telling that Fox had to put him behind a mask for 90% of the shots {nm} slipping jimmy Feb 13, 21:34

So it could have been a stand-in the whole time. . . or Andy Serkis? :) {nm} second gary Feb 13, 21:35

Personally I thought the movie was awesome. Anyone who had heard anything about the movie went in expecting adolescent, crass humor. Then Dorfman Feb 13, 16:40

It's huge? It's not the size that matters, it's how....hey....you again! {nm} MoneyMagnet Feb 13, 17:30

So you didn't buy a ticket? {nm} hyperzeitgeist Feb 13, 17:33

I bought a ticket. {nm} goodvibe61 Feb 13, 22:24

so you're saying it's not your cup of tea? =P {nm} tealfan Feb 13, 17:34

Oh grampy, you snuck in? That's not a good example for the kiddies. {nm} eternal warrior Feb 13, 17:52

How old are you warrior? {nm} goodvibe61 Feb 13, 22:20

Isn't sneaking into another movie you didn't pay for stealing? {nm} Quickslver99 Feb 13, 18:10

Yes, yes it is. {nm} magicdreamer Feb 13, 18:40

I thought it doesn't count as stealing if you didn't enjoy it... ;( {nm} BSmurf Feb 13, 19:56

Or if you duck back out again. {nm} hyperzeitgeist Feb 14, 02:25

So you are saying that this movie is checking all the boxes for the target audience and that you not part of that audience. How interesting. {nm} Willroast Feb 13, 21:04

Yeah, it's pretty fascinating stuff. And yes, Hollywood has definitely passed me by, obviously. They have nothing for me at this point. goodvibe61 Feb 13, 22:16

I'm gonna regret pointing this out, but the movie you went to see (more than once) is a studio film which is actually paid for because of Moviesnob Feb 13, 23:12

You need to make Arnon Milchan understand, not me. Because for the past 30 years he's described himself as an "independent" producer. {nm} goodvibe61 Feb 14, 00:27

Who produces studio/Hollywood movies {nm} Moviesnob Feb 14, 00:34
