I didn't feel that movie. Wasn't bad but Rises was better.
This is worse than your Jordan rants. Yes the Ewoks were dumb, but overall that film is a classic. Batman 3 will just be another movie that everyone forgets in a few years. The second one is the classic b/c of Ledger
exactly. I haven't even seen the supposed fourth one and never will
Never said ROTJ wasn't great (huge original SW fan). If it were not for Lucas repeated attempts to ruin the franchise I would agree with you. But man all the edits and prequels left me bitter as fuck. Still waiting for a bluray unedited release of the movies (fuck the prequels they were garbage). I want to show the original versions to my kids. At worst I will just bust out the VCR and show them Star Wars the way nature intended it to be.
And speaking of batman I guess I liked it more than you did. I think you underrate it. I thought it was a really cool direction to take the series and kept the last movie fresh.

Eh. The danger felt over with after TTT.
Reused plot device (Second Death Star)
Han becomes a caricature
Rebel climax is a repeat of original Sans Luke.
Honestly if it weren't for Luke, Vader, and the Emperor the movie would be a waste.
There are fan edits out there of the blurays that get really close to the originals, but I understand your sentiment
Please edit this post. It deeply offends me.

They weren't even the worst part of that movie.
I was literally begging the movie not to do what it looked like it was going to do.
It didn't listen.

I love the Jabba first act and of course the Emperor. It's the middle part of the movie that sucks. Still a thousand times better than Lucas's senior projects that came later.
Just caught his highlight run and saw his stats, didn't seem bad at all. Last year he had no right being on a professional field, seems like he is competent now.

Sean Payton knew nothing about the bounty system..
Compared to watching the Bucs, that movie was probably a fucking joyful revelation.

The Dark Knight Rises was a steaming piece of shit.

Yes us fucking Packer fans and our attention to detail, plot holes, bad acting, and shlocky writing.
Fucking hipster Packers fans.
Jason Smith was with third string unit today. He can't play guard. There's a real chance they cut him. 2009 #2 overall and he's on the roster bubble. Barry Richardson is likely the starter at RT
So two more years of Bradford. Next year fix the line. 2014 draft Bradford's replacement. Develop him the right way with talent already in place around him. 2015 contention

It was too bad it was terrible, Batman Begins and The Dark Knight were so good.
They can't seem to crack the three's with superhero movies.

Just in time for them to get a fresh start in LA. Did you see the stltoday article about how the rams aren't sweating not having a star receiver? The rationalization has started already. Hearing too many things about dropped passes already

Harbaugh is pretty awesome. I mean, he is the fourth best Chicago Bears quarterback in history for a reason.
What are you trying to say?
Just catching up a bit, poor Bengals with those injuries.
Also, WTH Buckethead. I can see why some people would like it a bit less than I do, but calling it terrible?
I like it better than TDK, which really drags at the end when you watch it more than once, and I still think the Twoface part felt half-assed.

It is "well made" but uninspired and stupid.
That's unfortunate because BB and TDK were so sharp, had a lot to say, and did such a great job of grounding the more absurd aspects of the genre in reality.

I thought Rises was just OK. I wouldn't call it horrible though, I save that for stuff like the last two Spiderman flicks. Rises had it tough right out of the gate cause there was no way it was going to live up to the monstrosity that TDK became.
Wait you didn't like Spiderman 2?

Haven't watched Spiderman 2 in awhile but I remember it fondly.
First movie I remember seeing in IMAX.
Has it's flaws though.
First two are campy and fun. I enjoy them.

Train stopping scene and the on the nose Jesus symbology.

Yeah that was pretty embarrassing. No idea why they did that. It's such a great scene otherwise

TDKR was so fucking good. Easily the best 3rd movie in any trilogy. I love seeing internet hipsters complain about it.
I thought the XMEN movies were good. But I agreed with Ebert when he said Spiderman 2 was the best superhero movie ever made, and he's still right

Wrong about Brandon Jackson, wrong about TDKR.
TDKR didn't really impress me in the theater (apart from the ending, which was awesome), but after letting it settle for a while I decided it might actually be really good and saw it again. I was right, it's better than Begins.
You threatened to become a Bears fan if we let him go!

I liked Brandon Jackson.
If you aren't old enough to have seen RotJ in theaters, then I can see this point

I liked Avengers, but TDKR is just a better movie.
I can't recall another superhero movie that hit the emotional lows (beatdown) and highs (the climb) to the extent that TDKR did.
You also have fun watching the Texans, so your opinion is suspect.

Except I am old enough to have seen Empire in the theaters and I was very disappointed by RotJ when I saw it in theaters. RotJ isnt even cin the same class as TDKR. Lucas is a fucking hack who will never be 1/100th of the director or man that Nolan is.
