Love it! You know, why does Japanese Spider-Man calls himself "The Emissary from Hell"? That sounds more like a bad guy title you hear and run away from rather than a hero's title.

He's probably referencing/chanelling Oda Nobunaga and him famously calling himself "The Demon Conqueror of the Sixth Circle of Hell". Note Nobunaga may or may not have been sarcastic or ironic when using that line. Or at the very least trying to turn an attempted insult into a threat.

It's a film. (or rather, 3 films)

Made from the same low rent production that gave us the two Reb Brown Captain America movies.

That catch phrase is the most badass edgy quote ever, especially coming from a goofy Power Ranger Spidey.

Despite what the narrator claiming P.L. Travers hated the movie for ruining her novel and how the movie Saving Mr. Banks vilified her, it reality, while Travers did hate the movie at first, she eventually did like the movie after viewing it again. Furthermore, her portrayal in Saving Mr. Banks was way more nicer than in Real Life since she was very demanding and nasty. How nasty she was? She once planned to adopt twin baby boys but only adopted one under the advice of her Astrologist, hence leaving one of the boys to live in poverty. Her son never knew he was adopted or had a twin brother until 18 years later when his twin brother visited him while drunk.

I think P.L Travers has too many apologists, that gloss over her behavior at times.

[up][up] From what I heard she never did Like the movie, but she grew to tolerate it as its own thing, admitting that as a movie it's good.

In a 1977 interview Travers remarked, "I've seen it once or twice, and I've learned to live with it. It's glamorous and it's a good film on its own level, but I don't think it is very like my books."[26]

New Honest Trailer for 2019.

If I didn't know this was a Venom movie, I would have thought it was a movie about a crazy man with an eating disorder.

Not sure if I'll skip this one or not. I haven't seen Venom, and some people I know say it's a fun movie, so I don't want to spoil myself. On the other hand, I have little to no interest in the movie itself.

Honest Trailers - Unbreakable.

Okay, first, props to Screen Junkies for getting all "we be spoiling dis" in the lead but then not actually spoiling the twist. I still haven't seen this, and may one day do so. Second, huh. Maybe I should actually watch it.

Agh. I can't watch that until I've seen the film. I'll put it on my mental to-do list. Strange how little buzz I've heard about the new Predator. Did it fly under the radar, or just suck?

Everything I've heard about it was "you really had a sexual predator in there, whose sole purpose was to hit on Olivia Munn?" and the Disability Superpower of autism being the next step in human evolution.

Everything else about it sounds like, at best, So Okay, It's Average. Though most of it is more "it sucked."

IIRC, a lot of scenes were cut or the script changed which some fans felt would have made the movie better like explaining there's a civil war between the traditional and honorable Predators like the ones from the first two movies (who respect those who can beat or kill them and refusing to hunt or kill unarmed, young, pregnant or sick people) and Dishonorable Predators who the former hates as they don't follow the "Don't kill innocents or survive fighting us" rule and their use of genetic engineering which the former considers "cheating". Edward James Olmos was even in the movie where he played an Army General whose the head of a Black ops agency that deals with Predators since he fought one before and even had two honorable Predators as his allies who later help the Heroes against the Super Predator.

I broke down and watched the video. From that and the commentary, I take away that the film had an unbelievable amount of Executive Meddling, with a half-dozen conflicting scripts that somehow all had to make it into the final product.

Honest Trailers - Bird Box

I felt fine about watching this HT, because Bird Box is totally not something I would watch by choice, even if it were good. Which it isn't, apparently. So, yeah. I just wish I got more of the Starring jokes. I get some of them, but not all.

The Birdbox challenge has got to be the most dumbest thing stupid people have done after swallowing tide pods. Did these people think they can do the same thing as the heroine did while blindfolded despite the fact the movie already explained she had years of practice yet they think they can do in a day or two and doing impossible stuff like driving a car while blind!? WTH people! Use your common sense!!

It was more about playing video games blindfolded at the start.

[up][up] Yup. It got so bad that Youtube started cracking down on videos that involved life-threatening stunts after people started posting videos of themselves driving while blindfolded. I mean, it's Youtube, so they have a shit track-record of actually moderating their content, but it's something.
