    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    OSC's politics and beliefs sound pretty hateful and I want no part of it, but again I won't be seeing the film simply because I find Card's writing uninteresting. Ender's Game was out when I was a kid, but it struck me as Young Adult, and I never liked Young Adult books even when I WAS a "Young...

    How to Spend a Muppety Day in Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Thanks for the pics, Muppet Fan. Had no idea that fire engine was from MV3D (even though I saw MV3D 3x on my WDW vacation). I myself came from WDW about 3 weeks ago; I spent a week there with my family and went to all the parks. Next to Magic Kingdom, Hollywood Studios was definitely my favorite...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    Never cared for Orson Scott Card, and I don't care much for Ender's Game, but it has more to with the fact I find his stuff uninteresting than it does with his politics. Some writers are able to keep their own personal politics and religion out of their works, others are not (e.g. L. Ron...

    I apologize if I bashed WoK a little too much, and I should always respect the opinion of others, but again, different strokes for different folks. I must agree with your one point against Into Darkness; when Spock cried as Kirk died, it felt very forced. In the beginning of the film they...

    Yes, agree to disagree, indeed. I'm no noob who's never seen an episode of Star Trek, mind you; I've seen 61 of the 80 original episodes (I'm sorry, but most of season 3 is just too horrible to watch). It may be a generational thing (I'm 27), it may be a matter of taste, but I've seen WoK twice...

    SPOILERS Yes, I've been telling everyone that "Into Darkness" is basically a superior version of "Wrath of Khan." It's not like the writers were trying to hide the fact, what with Dr. Carol Marcus and Khan and the switcheroo with Kirk sacrificing himself to repair the engines instead of Spock. I...

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Thread

    Leatherneck's always been one of my fav TMNT villains. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't he debut in the original "Tales of the TMNT" comic? I'll definitely have to check out the new show.

    Yes, at this point it seems like he just enjoys torturing nerds:concern:. On another topic, is the new TMNT show any good? I haven't watched it yet; I just don't think it could be better than the 2K3 series, which I believe had a good balance between the humor of the 80's toon and the...

    Dreams about Muppets...

    That's what I was thinking when I saw them. I was in process of buying them, when I woke up and realized it was a dream. Dreaming about getting cool stuff and waking up to realize you don't have it is one of my least favorite things:sympathy:.

    Dreams about Muppets...

    I had a dream last night where I was at the Disney store, and they were selling Muppet Babies summer-themed lawn/ yard decorations. One had Kermit, Fozzie, and Scooter sitting on a big inner-tube, and another had Kermit, Fozzie, and Rowlf playing with a hose. They were about $7 each and made of...

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Thread

    I agree that Jane Levy would make a great April, saw the new Evil Dead and loved it. As I mentioned before in this thread, it would be too cool for words if Chris Evans played Casey Jones in the new film, if he's not too busy with the Marvel movie projects. I feel like the film isn't entirely...

    Yes, the first film was an all-around good movie, and lifted scenes straight from issue #11 of the original comics, such as the big fight in April's antique shop. Certain parts felt kind of cheesy, like the After-School Special message of The Foot recruiting children. Still, as I mentioned...

    Disney buying Lucasfilm, Star Wars Episode VII coming in 2015

    New show supposedly takes place between Ep. III and IV. I hope Grand Moff Tarkin plays a major role, he was always one of my fav villains. Also, it wouldn't be out of the question to have Wedge Antilles on the show, seeing how he was already leader of Rogue Squadron in Ep. IV.

    Maybe Bay felt bad and wanted to throw her a bone. She doesn't have much of a movie career post-Bayformers, being a terrible actress and all. I don't like to dwell on a Bay-helmed TMNT film too much anymore; either it'll happen or it won't, either way there's not much I can do about it. The...

    I finished reading "The Three Musketeers" a few weeks ago, and I wouldn't be surprised if Eastman and Laird drew inspiration for the characters of the four turtles from Dumas's classic novel. As far as their main traits go, each of the four turtles matches up pretty well with one of the...

    *SPOILER* The implication was that the Vice President was backing Killian and the Extremis program on the promise Killian would use Extremis to regrow the VP's daughter's leg. After Killian killed the president, the former VP would then be a puppet president with Killian pulling his strings...

    Terrible Rumor: Muppet*Vision 3D to close in DisneyLand California

    Saw MV3D 3 times when I was in WDW about a week ago. Never had any problems seeing it and they weren't showing other movies. In Disneyland, how cool would it be if the S&W animatronics turned on by accident during another 3D film and started heckling it:)?

    Sorry 'bout that, I'm usually better at concealing spoilers, but it's too late to delete now. Anyway, I feel like it only feels like they're recycling plots because Tony Stark still has some of the same problems, e.g. he's still kind of jerk and people still want to use his suits. Most of...
