... oh.

GotG was the most "fun" I have had at a movie in a long, long time. - groiny Sep 2, 09:43 39
- (GotG spoilers) - Capstern Sep 2, 10:01 19
  - um, dude? - groiny Sep 2, 10:01 18
    - A month after release ...really? -- nm - Capstern Sep 2, 10:17 12
      - yeah. nm -- nm - groiny Sep 2, 10:17 11
        
        Noted. What is the acceptable time table on things like that these days? - Capstern Sep 2, 10:20 10
        
        If you want to use common courtesy, forever. It doesn't hurt to use the spoiler subject. -- nm - Shaun Sep 2, 10:26
        
        The fact that I saw the movie the day before release was an astounding anomaly. Normally I have to wait for things to come out on Netflix Canada, so.. - Beryllium Sep 2, 10:23 4
        
        Hmmm so ok to say the dude escapes the prison in (spoiler) - Capstern Sep 2, 10:25 3
        
        Escape Plan isn't even worth talking about, let alone spoiling. LOL - Beryllium Sep 2, 10:27 2
        
        was trying to be funny....(spoiler) - Capstern Sep 2, 10:30 1
        
        no trying about it, that was funny. :) -- nm - Beryllium Sep 2, 10:30
        
        I would say not everyone can get out to the theater to see something they want. - groiny Sep 2, 10:21 3
        
        Good to know. And honestly saw that one as pretty lame (spoilers) as quality goes - Capstern Sep 2, 10:24 2
        
        (spoils) - Beryllium Sep 2, 10:26 1
        
        (spolier) - Capstern Sep 2, 10:28
    - fixed. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 2, 10:02 4
      - nice work. nm -- nm - groiny Sep 2, 10:03 3
        
        It's only a band-aid fix. He'll post again. -- nm - Qale Sep 2, 10:07 2
        
        girl, you so catty! -- nm - Beryllium Sep 2, 10:08 1
        
        you spelled that last word wrong -- nm - Capstern Sep 2, 10:17
- It does sometimes seem like people watch movies just looking for things to tear apart -- nm - con_carne Sep 2, 09:59 1
  - for sure, this is a part of it as well. nm -- nm - groiny Sep 2, 10:01
- Respectfully, the plot holes or weak villain are things that do detract from films - Will Hunting Sep 2, 09:51 2
  - I do see what you're saying, perhaps moreso than groiny, but I definitely 100% got my money's worth out of GotG. :-) -- nm - Beryllium Sep 2, 09:54
  - not once had I even thought about who was playing the villan in the movie. - groiny Sep 2, 09:53
- Haven't seen it or Avengers. Just doesn't interest me -- nm - CQ Sep 2, 09:47
- There are all kinds of people, with all kinds of opinions, here. I'm on your side on GotG, though. Super fun movie. - Beryllium Sep 2, 09:45
- Thus the Michael Bay comparison... -- nm - David Sep 2, 09:45 11
  - And sometimes people just like to escape and watch stuff blow up - especially at $4.25 for a matinee -- nm - Capstern Sep 2, 10:02 1
    - Speak for yourself. -- nm - David Sep 2, 10:17
  - I think that's an unfair comparison. The closest GotG-Bay comparison would be Armageddon, and GotG is lightyears better than that. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 2, 09:48 6
    - You know that Bay directed Armageddon, right? -- nm - David Sep 2, 09:49 4
      - ... you know that I know that, right? and that's what I was comparing? -- nm - Beryllium Sep 2, 09:51 2
        
        I honestly wasn't sure. -- nm - David Sep 2, 09:51 1
        
        The film in Bay's directorial career that most closely resembles GotG in theme and substance is, in my opinion, Armageddon. And GotG is superior. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 2, 09:52
      - that is kind of his point. nm -- nm - groiny Sep 2, 09:50
    - (And I'm sure people know I like Armageddon) -- nm - Beryllium Sep 2, 09:48
  - well, he keeps getting jobs, so he must be doing something right too. nm -- nm - groiny Sep 2, 09:47 1
    - He's the master of commercial cinema. -- nm - David Sep 2, 09:48
