Who cares if he's just trying to be a petty trollish loser.... it doesn't mean we can't ignore him and actually productively discuss the upcoming flick.

Harrison Ford = Good
America = Good
Comic Book Movies = Good

Like I said, I hadn't really considered it as something to look forward to... but my mind may have been changed.

Whose playing Captain America?

But now, on the reelz, I'm curious because I was just sort of unsure where the cutoff is with the general demographic around here.

For instance I know most people here love their X-Men movies. But if, say, a new Turtles movie were to come out and I asked who was seeing it I think most people would probably say "Turtles? LOL."

I just saw the commercial for this Captain America movie and to me it looked awful EVEN by action/superhero genre standards. I was curious if people here were down with this one or if this was in the arbitrary "Please, I'm too old for THAT one!" category like a TMNT movie would be.


I'll await some thoughts on the movie and the predictable forced joke attempt from petes montreux.

It really does look bad. It looks like they went for silly and bad punchlines instead of the intentions of the actual strip. I never read comics, but given actual fan reactions, it seems like its a horrible remake.

Well I just think its interesting that most of the same dudes who all wear the same flannel shirts and kobe jerseys, and watch superhero movies, and drink miller lite bc they make commercials about man-caves etc would tell you that they hate music made by Justin Timberlake, or music by the Spice Girls etc. but these things are of the exact same quality.

I remember when there was a thread about zac efron playing robin, people were like "i'll never see another batman if thats true" and i bet NONE of them had even seen the kid act (as i havent). But if someone - who could not possibly be any more talented, but is popular amongst beta males - like Seth Rogan were to be in it, they'd be all over it, discussing the movie on this forum.

The other day I heard someone say it would be a joke to have Ashton Kutcher take over Charlie Sheen's role in 2 and a half men. Last I checked, Sheen's character was basically exactly like what a grown up Michael Kelso would be. "Oh, but Kutcher is popular among teenyboppers. So I like Zach Galifinakas cuz he's way more hip and edgy." It's like dude theyre both equally talented.

I think people like petes montreux and most other posters here think theyre basing their opinions on quality, and dont even realize theyre really basing them on image. This is why these bad movies make so much, because this is the stuff guys here think theyre supposed to like.

And I just have a beef with that because it's so tedious to see and hear loser males like that everywhere I go. It's like impossible to have a good discussion with a group of people. It's impossible to see quality entertainment in the mainstream because most of these moronic baboons just support whatever the rest of the herd is, which is almost always microwaved garbage. But if they give it a superhero angle or a man-cave angle or a anti-heartthrob angle, these generic guys eat it up bigtime.

Well for one, Michael Jackson was a much, much better singer than any of the Spice Girls. More vocal talent and more soul instantly make even the exact same song better. Moreover, the Jacksons had a much greater infusion of instruments in their song, since, obviously, they played instruments. And The Corporation was a much better song writing collaboration than anything which contributed music to the Spice Girls. I'm not saying just because they were both considered pop means theyre the same.

But yes, I do believe the vast majority of these super hero movies are the equivalent of Justin Bieber, Spice Girls, Timberlake etc. but instead of being marketed toward teen girls, theyre marketed to "average joe." Plaid shirt with designer jeans and sandals wearin, domestic beer drinkin, superhero lovin, bad facial hair havin, average uncultured mediocre joe. This guy thinks those musical acts targeted to the teen girls (since theyre the ones who spend $ on that market) are stupid, on every youtube video he comments "this is real music, this is way better than justin bieber!!!!" but he loves the equally unstimulating, poor quality, generic action movies targeted toward him (since hes the one who spends $ in that market).

Its just one of those ironies.

That's a criticism of anyone who consumes anything that's produced for monetary purpose though. Everything is produced and released with a targeted demographics in mind. So unless you are a monk, you are being hypocritical too probably.

The Jacksons didn't have anything to do with the songwriting nor did any of the instrumentation on their recordings. Only singing. Later they became more involved, but in the early "I want you back" days? Definitely not.

It's the exact same category of manufactured hit music as the Spice Girls, yet we both agree that they greatly differ in quality. So it's not so strange to like one yet frown upon the other. (which I personally don't, I'm just saying)

Lol I think Shitface watched the 4 hr Jacksons TV movie and now perceives himself as an expert. Probably seen it a few times with all those lonely days sitting at home with no life and no job.


lol! says the guy who NEVER contributes more than 2-3 sentences at best in a given topic, but always injects just a tiny drive-by comment so people see him in the discussion and think he knows the topic, WITHOUT ACTUALLY EVER GIVING ANY INFORMATION OR OPINION. :lol


You have absolutely no thinking skills or writing skills. Your opinions are all about whatever image as a sophisticated and culturally superior liberal elitist youve attempted to cultivate. But you never back any of them with reason or with...anything at all. Nothing you say is actually ever an argument for anything or informative in any way. You just troll threads with interesting topics and lob a gernade of salty contrariansim inside so people think "oh, he's tersely disagreeing in this topic, he must know a lot about it." Your stances are 100% image driven, 0% substantive.

You're actually extremely UNcultured, and completely devoid of knowledge outside a tedious few subjects of academia. A fraud and poser of the most shameful kind. As an unrelated, yet hilarious aside, you have been mistaken by 95% of the board for a woman.


When we want substantive information on the endoplasmic reticulum of lichen, we'll consult you. other than that though, you're easily the #1 poser on the board.

That's a criticism of anyone who consumes anything that's produced for monetary purpose though. Everything is produced and released with a targeted demographics in mind. So unless you are a monk, you are being hypocritical too probably.

like economists say there's no accounting for taste. people have different tastes but nothing is absolute. Not sure why you go out of your way to belittle people here all the time.

What type of movies/books/music do you enjoy?

but to your original question. Nah it looks corny and I'm tired of overly CGId films
Thats what i'm trying to figure out.

This guy perceives everything on an objective 'quality' measuring stick.. but we're talking about movies and music.. completely SUBJECTIVE categories. People don't necessarily listen to or watch things for their quality, but rather if they like what they are watching/hearing. I dont sort my playlists out based on musical talent, but on what I like to listen to.

I've always been a fan of his, though not a delusional one like those who sip kobe's manjuice (like you) and I've criticized him when it was merited. I give players credit or criticism whenever its deserved, the reason I praise Lebron often is because he's CLEARLY the best player in the league and has been better the last 3 years than Kobe ever was at any point in his career, period.

You were the one claiming that Dennis Rodman was a more impactful player than Isaih Thomas during the Pistons 80s title teams.. you also made a thread early in the year about how dirk was overrated and really was nothing more than a shot jacker.. man I wish I could remember your name from back then.. That shit would make for a HILARIOUS bump.

Your basketball knowledge is shit because you purposely underrate anyone who shoots the ball too much SOLELY because those are the guys who the media focuses their attention on. It doesn't matter if said player is accepted by the 99% of the intelligent basketball community including select groups of fans, coaches, and players.. you will always find a way to over exxagerrate how bad they are in an attempt to both sway the public away from what their perception is in the media and to make yourself appear/feel smart by revealing all of this information to us like we've never heard it before.

And you're doing it again here. It's hilarious how you feel you can tell people if they're cultured or not, like you've achieved the pinnacle of the societal social ladder, and are all knowing on all of these topics..

You're the definition of a hipster.. a person who purposely goes against what others think SOLELY because you feel that they are all 'sheep', and you are somebody special who would never sink to their level. You need to think in the exact opposite manner as compared to them, so that you are as far away from them as possible, and by definition that would make you some sort of elite individual in society.. on the opposite side of the spectrum as the people you hate~ the dumb conforming crowd.

Just because you claim your cultured does not make you correct...

[QUOTE]The best performance of the film might be Hugo Weaving as the Red Skull, even in spite of the fact that he once again spends much of the movie hidden behind a mask. (Although precisely which of his faces is the mask is a very good question.) At this point, Weaving is an old pro at finding the hidden layers in larger-than-life characters, and while Johann Schmidt remains thoroughly unsympathetic, Weaving allows us to understand the character's motivations, no matter how twisted they might be.

Raiders of the Lost Ark has been mentioned a lot as a touchstone for this movie, and it's nowhere more apparent than in Weaving's work, which often recalls the similarly chilling but restrained villainy of Raiders's top Nazi Major Toht. He's also ably supported by Toby Jones as Dr. Armin Zola, who is portrayed as the rare supervillain who is more coward than megalomaniac and is a nice reminder of how banal evil can be.


Really, there aren't any bad performances in this movie. Stanley Tucci is a lot of fun as the fatherly, wryly humorous Dr. Erskine, Tommy Lee Jones is reliably grizzled and badass as Colonel Phillips, and Sebastian Stan does a nice job playing Bucky both as the protector of the 90-pound Steve and as the man who has to now live in Captain America's shadow. The Howling Commandos don't get much to do in this movie, but everything I saw suggests they'd be great fun to see more of in a sequel, and, if nothing else, Neal McDonough really, really looks like Dum Dum Dugan.

Finally, special mention should go to Dominic Cooper, who resists the urge to imitate Robert Downey, Jr. (or Iron Man 2's John Slattery, for that matter) as Howard Stark

Deadline.com is reporting (thanks to CBM) that Captain America took $4 million from last night's midnight opener (biggest 2011 midnight opener for a comic book film):

Captain America: The First Avenger opened at four Million dollars for its midnight showings.

That's better than midnights for this summer's other original superhero movies like Thor and Green Lantern as well as prequel/reboot X-Men: First Class, which all did between $3.25M and $3.5M in Friday midnights.

Stay tuned for more.

He also liked Hulk back in 2003. A History of Violence, X2. I'm sure there are others.
Batman Begins and TDK got perfect scores. I think as did X2 and Spider-Man 2.

CAMEO: If you don't blink, the original Human Torch, Jim Hammond, is apparently in the movie! Which is a tribute to Chris Evans playing the modern day Human Torch.

Are you excited for Captain America?
not really. he's a comic book character.

i'll be a lot more excited if the US avoids defaulting on its debt.

I saw it. And it was lame. I like the idea of the story but wasn't convinced whatsoever of the enemy. It was too easy.

Talk about ground-breaking casting. Wow, they really are pushing the limits to the very end. Four badass superheroes, all played by douchebags. :rolleyes:

I walked out the theatre ... this movie was bland as hell.Had a chance to see it today for free, and I passed. After seeing X-Men, all these other bland superhero movies just don't compare.

My buddy told me the movie doesn't even tie up loose ends of this one character's movie.

It's a literaly giant commercial for another movie.

:oldlol:

Corny, bland Marvel heroes galore.

Oh well, one more year until The Dark Knight Rises.

Well I just think its interesting that most of the same dudes who all wear the same flannel shirts and kobe jerseys, and watch superhero movies, and drink miller lite bc they make commercials about man-caves etc would tell you that they hate music made by Justin Timberlake, or music by the Spice Girls etc. but these things are of the exact same quality.

I remember when there was a thread about zac efron playing robin, people were like "i'll never see another batman if thats true" and i bet NONE of them had even seen the kid act (as i havent). But if someone - who could not possibly be any more talented, but is popular amongst beta males - like Seth Rogan were to be in it, they'd be all over it, discussing the movie on this forum.

The other day I heard someone say it would be a joke to have Ashton Kutcher take over Charlie Sheen's role in 2 and a half men. Last I checked, Sheen's character was basically exactly like what a grown up Michael Kelso would be. "Oh, but Kutcher is popular among teenyboppers. So I like Zach Galifinakas cuz he's way more hip and edgy." It's like dude theyre both equally talented.

I think people like petes montreux and most other posters here think theyre basing their opinions on quality, and dont even realize theyre really basing them on image. This is why these bad movies make so much, because this is the stuff guys here think theyre supposed to like.

And I just have a beef with that because it's so tedious to see and hear loser males like that everywhere I go. It's like impossible to have a good discussion with a group of people. It's impossible to see quality entertainment in the mainstream because most of these moronic baboons just support whatever the rest of the herd is, which is almost always microwaved garbage. But if they give it a superhero angle or a man-cave angle or a anti-heartthrob angle, these generic guys eat it up bigtime.


the only thing on this board you care about is finding examples of bad popular opinion amongst "hipsters". someone doesn't like aerosmith but they worship radiohead, ATTACK!

your primary argument in every thread is that someone thinks the way they think because they're following popular opinion; not because it is their thought but because they are adhering to what they percieve to be the cool way of thinking. it's not even that you're frequently wrong so much as it's dull and repetitive- even mongoloids like petes fatreux see your agenda a mile away. seriously kid, get some new talking points, and maybe a job while you're at it. we get it, you reject the social standpoints of your peers, you see yourself as an independent thinker, kudos Chris. you're still an unemployed loser living off daddy's good graces and wasting away in your little hollywood fantasy.

I grew up in a city without a pro team and then was a freshman at Ohio State


how many classes did you finish at OSU? LOL.

this flunky, drop out, unemployed, former part time shoe salesman is really on here trying to pretend he's cultured and intelligent. son, reading a couple news web sites a day doesn't mean you're dialed into politics. just because you don't go see silly summer blockbuster movies doesn't mean you're cultured. you'd probably blow somebody to be in one of those movies and then you'd be on here talking about how you MADE IT so cut the high and mighty act.

you're a loser, straight up and down, you love to bill yourself as this confident, me against the world intellectual but you are simply a dick that nobody likes. just because you're "too confident to care" doesn't mean you shouldn't at least be taking something from the fact that everyone hates you. it's not because you're above anyone, it's because you are an ass hole. you have never had a real job, your life experience is extremely limited, you have no education, the only girls you get are drunk girls at bars or girls off web sites, you have very few friends if any, and you talk down to people constantly as if anyone should respect your perspective based on all the things we know about you and your incredible track record of ignorance. nobody ever gets through to you because you're a pig headed dick whose really only here to hear himself talk. why don't you go find some message board with more cultured people since you're so clearly superior in your own mind here? hang yourself f@ggot.

i'm curious to know what loose end wasn't tied up? i'm having a hard time thinking of what it could be.
