That bad director who was doing the third Star Wars isn't doing it anymore and now everyone is hoping the bad director who is doing the second Star Wars will do it.

Hey, if he's able to make Bruce Willis look like he's giving a shit, he's got to have some talent.

 

[Ashby]

Booo, Brick is a better movie than any Star War

Brick and Star Wars are all bad movies.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

what the fuck could've possibly happened in one's life that leads them to believing that Rian Johnson is a bad director

Watching Brick, The Brothers Bloom, and Looper.

 

[OdysseusVA]

Ive never seen Brothers Bloom, but Looper and Brick were good...

[BreezyLimbo]

I sold my PS4

Now I have to decide just how far down the PC hole I want to go

Are you me

I sold my ps4 too today

 

[alr1ght]

Why bother? PS4s are worth like 150 bucks used. Might as well keep it.

 

[Zacagawea]

i just bought two ps4s today, how ya'll doing

 

[OdysseusVA]

Excuuusse meeeeee
They are worth $200 used to be exact

 

[TraBuch]

I've got a hot take for you.

Star Trek Beyond is more entertaining than any Star Wars ever and they should probably get Justin Lin to direct IX.

 

[Death Metalist]

First half of Looper but the second half with that kid eeehhhhh

Thats the coldest take ever

First half of Looper but the second half with that kid eeehhhhh

We're gonna fight, DM

 

[Puck Beaverton]

Brick is great.
Looper blows

 

[Hindl]

Hot take

Star Wars is meh but the good costume design and advanced special effects for 1977 make people think the franchise doesn't have the depth of a puddle

 

[darkwing-buck]

Looper was doooope.

 

[Mr. F]

Watching some Destiny 2 intro stuff and that sure is a video game story set up

normal person take

star wars are just dumb fun movies that people think way too much about

 

[Rainmaker]

we aren't going to start speaking ill of Looper

 

[RumbleHumble]

This thread is melting my brain. My eyes are on fire reading with all these spicy takes.

 

[Antiwhippy]

I mean you can't blame people for that when Disney oversaturates everything with star wars marketing.

 

[ratcliffja]

Looper is a bad movie.

 

[Ashby]

Goddamnit I just saw an awesome Mario + Rabbids spoiler on Dan's twitter

 

[robotrock]

normal person take

star wars are just dumb fun movies that people think way too much about

What a dumb fun plot for a dumb fun movie

 

[RumbleHumble]

What's amazing about Looper is that anytime the words "is a bad movie" follow, I just see "is one of the best damn movies of the 21st century". I then knod my head in agreement knowing the person who said that is probably a handsome and intelligent person.

 

[formated4tv]

What a dumb fun plot for a dumb fun movie

It sounds badass until you get to "Taxation of trade routes".

 

[Dany]

Knack II look cute. Wont pick it up though.

 

[Twin Tails]

We need Rorie on GOTY
Some one gotta fight for Prey

I sold my PS4

Now I have to decide just how far down the PC hole I want to go

Why have ps4 anyways
Can’t even play pubg

 

[J_Viper]

First half of Looper

5/5

Once the kid is introduced

2/5

 

[alr1ght]

Played the first chapter of Knack 2. It's actually not bad.

 

[J_Viper]

The dialogue in Destiny 2 has me like

 

[TraBuch]

The first one wasn't bad, either. Just totally generic. It was basically the modern equivalent of a Rocky Rodent or Awesome Possum or Aero the Acrobat or Wild Woody.

Alex's tweets about Ryan

I, too, think about Ryan a lot. I still enjoy Giant Bomb, the current personalities and the things they do, but I let old Giant Bomb material play in the background a lot and Ryan was simply inimitable. Irreplaceable. I still laugh so hard at things he did and said years ago that I've already heard dozens of times. More and more I realize it was largely his magnetic personality alone that brought me to Giant Bomb in the first place, particularly his interest in artfully ravaging and laughing gleefully at games like Garshasp and anything on Kinect.

I'd agree with you if Empire wasn't one of the greatest movies ever made.

However, there are more mediocre/bad Star Wars than there are good ones.

 

[Karspankey]

Yeah, same. Really digging the art and new enemies.

 

[Mr. F]

The dialogue in Destiny 2 has me like

it's bland beyond belief, the lack of self awareness is almost impressive

 

[Blitzrules240]

I could buy Knack and Knack 2 for the price of one $60 game...

But I'll wait for the winter lul. Sure, they'll be discounted sooner or later...

In other news, Kiwami is excellent (not as good as Zero) but I'm enjoying the hell out of it.

Cold ass take.

 

[Human Trashcan]

the movie takes in this thread never fail at making me wanna fuckin' die more than i usually already do

Bad movie taste in this thread reflects the bad movie taste of the Giant Bomb crew.

 

[Blitzrules240]

This is why we're not movie critics...or film majors.

 

[Human Trashcan]

That's kinda true. It takes a special kind of charisma to be convinced that Tokyo Drift isn't thoroughly awful

 

[Antiwhippy]

Tokyo drift is awful and great.

Both can be true at the same time.

 

[Human Trashcan]

Tokyo drift is awful and great.

No, it's just bad and boring. The opening race against that dipshit from Home Improvement is the only good part of the film

[Han Seoul-Oh]

Tokyo Drift is the greatest movie of all time.

 

[Death Metalist]

Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed Looper but I was not expecting the direction it took in the second half and it was not in the good kind of way. Didn't work for me, unfortunately.

We need Rorie on GOTY
Some one gotta fight for Prey

True that.
