Why nothing compares to Mad Max 2. Still one of my favourite ever movie scenes.

Saw The Avengers in 3D. It was ok.

Shockingly, I thought the trailer to Pixels looked surprisingly entertaining.

I'm just not a superhero fan but I wanted to see the latest 3D action so I'm not a fair judge. I thought the movie was crazy long as it was but I was generally bored by it.

I'm still waiting on Mad Max and will probably try to catch Ex Machina.

if you want enjoy 3D action you'll have to watch those actually shoot with 3D camera
Age of Ultron is digitally convert to 3D so 3D effect won't be good
http://www.realorfake3d.com/
here is a list of movie either real or fake 3D
Drive Angry is a stupid movie but it was actually shoot in 3D
3D effect is really good IMO better than Avatar

you got bored of Age of Ultron because they spend too much time talking about Hawkeye, Black Widow and Hulk
fans least favorite Avengers
my guess this is their only chance they get more scene time because they don't have their own movie (at least not in near future)

No I just don't do the whole superhero stuff much. I do like Batman though.

Also James Spader was Ultron, which was weird for me. He is not tough. Did you enjoy it?


We probably should have just gone to Ex Machina like our original intention.

he only do the voice
which he done a great job
overall good pop corn flick movie
i don't like they spend way too much time on Hawkeye personal life and Black Widow/Hulk love story
to me they are all lame
they should spend more time on Ultron and Vision, Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver
they didn't really explain Scarlet Witch power
so she can read people mind (even robot), mess with their mind, and she can blast a fireball out of her hand? maybe she can fly too
Vision got a Mind Gem on his forehead he is supposed to be powerful
like able to lift Thor's hammer is going to help him much

elevator can move Thor's hammer, elevator is worthy
Vision can move hammer, he's worthy or because he is a machine?

lol Max. I'm with you there. I didn't understand Scarlet suddenly shooting fireballs Ryu style but is really a mind reader?

Yeah, the elevator piece was kind of funny. I'll give it that.

Spader was good, but it was obviously Spader. That was my problem. I couldn't get detached from the real guy.

I loved it!

I'm a huge fan of the super-hero movies. Well, at least the Marvel/Disney ones. Not so high on some of the other stuff.

Yeah, I liked the Dark Knight Trilogy (2 was the best, 1 & 3 were good, but not great). I liked the first two X-Men movies, but they lost me with everything after.

The Dark Knight > Batman Begins > The Dark Knight Rises

first three X-Men ain't that good
we were excited because it was among the first bunch released in 21st century with better CGI
X-Men First Class and Day of Future Past are pretty good
i don't know i'm more excited for Thanos or Apocalypse or Venom (if they do it right this time)
as a kid my favorite were Spider-Man and X-Men
for movie Marvel Studio is fun to watch
my favorite is still Dark Knight trilogy
