Right, so I think I'm just skewed on ratings. Or super stingy on them.Movies are generally a 3 hour investment + 8 to 14 bucks depending on stuff. A game is usually much more than that on both fronts so the ratings that one would consider skippable should be different for the two mediums.
Well, and the video game rating industry has been slowly skewed towards high ratings over time. Some people get paid off, or pampered in some way, and that pushes the ratings a little higher then they should be.Right, so I think I'm just skewed on ratings. Or super stingy on them.
Well, exactly. It's why you don't see anything lower than 5, and why I tend to view anything around the 6.5 area as being bad.Well, and the video game rating industry has been slowly skewed towards high ratings over time.

A real 1-10 scale should have 5 as an 'average' version of whatever it is rating. A 6/7 is an above average movie, imo, but not great by any means. That's where I, personally, felt BvS was. A movie in a genre that I like, that gets anything above a 5, is something I don't mind watching. I.e. superhero, sci fi and heist movies. I also rarely give out a 10, even things like Guardians of the Galaxy or Deadpool, which I loved, would get a 9.5 most often.
4 hours ... Jesus Fuckin' Christ.It was a lot to juggle. So the plot lines of a couple characters had to go. These people are currently in the movie but we don't track them, and it's okay. What's kind of fun is that we went back and did an extended cut where we put a lot of this stuff back, and we refined it into the same rhythm as the theatrical release.So what was once a nearly four hour cutwith absolutely everything was ridiculous - ended up being about a three hour cut, once all these added storylines were refined with the fat was cut out.
Sounds like they needed to make a couple movies and not cram all that shit into one, oops.
Have you seen Now You See Me? Great cast, pretty decent movie. Puts him back together with Harrelson.I loaded up Zombieland, and forgot Jessie Eisenberg was in that. I think that was the last movie I liked him in.
To be the studio to put out a big budget movie just before the super hero bubble bursts rather than afterwards.Why the fuck do they want to race Marvel anyway, race them to where exactly?
with any luck, they'll look like a new hope. time is a flat circle, yoThere isn't a bubble, the only reason so many of these movies are currently being made is because honestly we've only just entered a time where they're even feasible to make, the early X-Men movies don't have Iceman because they just didn't have the tech to make him look anything like he's supposed to, hell they still don't.
Imagine what these movies will look like in 20-30 years time.
Pretty much agree with this. As long as they keep making actual quality movies, like Marvel, then the superhero genre will continue to make a ton of money.Ah yes, this supposed bubble. As if fun action-y movies (regardless of sub-genre) have ever been susceptible to such.
In a world where Michael Bay/Transformers can shit out terrible movies and still make money hand over fist, there is no superhero movie bubble.
