Another thing I forgot to mention is what a nice 'farewell' performance for Dianna Rigg to have.

Yeah it is getting pretty eh reviews. Admittedly there's a point in the third act where a lot of the audience is just gonna say "Nope."
I was entertained enough stylistically that I just rolled with it.
I liken it a bit to Luhrman's Romeo+Juliet or Copolla's Dracula where there is a bit of style superseding substance, but I enjoy em almost because of that.

So just saw this. One more interesting, entertaining flick from Edgar Wright. A kaleidoscopic fever dream of 60s London with horror elements. Lots of twists and turns and the kind of unique shots,edits,and great music choices you'd expect from him.
Really interesting watch. It looks and sounds great, fine acting throughout. Just another unique movie among Wright's pantheon of work.

Charlotte is very good in the ring, but has she ever improved on the mic the last couple of years?
Also, man talk about nepotism. Again she's VERY good in the ring, but she'd still never have been quite the focal point she has been if she was Charlotte Smith or whatever.

It's weird but no worse than a fully in kayfabe Taker doing an anti-smoking PSA or whatever.

Yeah. No more old than say Flair, Hogan etc, but still old.
It was maybe worse with them as their characters were such one note ass kicking monsters that if you've seen them in one era, you've seen them in all of them.

The GM office in a bouncy castle was hysterical though.

That's a shame, Mark generally seems like such a nice dude. Guess everyone has a dumb take now and then.

Holy shit what a fight. Fury with a great victory, but respect to Wilder, dunno how he kept going so long.

For a done in one, the Pamela reveal works great. It's just very clear they had no idea it'd become a monster hit (hell, they sold it solely on a title w nothing else) and had to retrofit everything else after.

I just hope in the inevitable third it isn't Venom vs yet another symbiote. Thing is, what villains does Venom actually have that aren't? Even Knull is symbiote related. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}The second film already set up Toxin as a potential villian for the third. With Detective Mulligan being revived by a piece of symbiote and his eyes glowing blue. Yeah I saw that and just went "ugh really?" Haha

I disagree, part VI is a very good movie, but part IV is the best Friday the 13th of all time.

Thing with V is, they totally bait and switch there with Tommy. No one cared about Roy the ambulance driver.

If they'd been smart and gone the logical route of Tommy Jarvis taking over from V onward they could have avoided all this.

Nah, only parasites I've ever faced are ticks really. No cool powers there, just potential Lyme disease Well, those symbiotes don't know what they're missing out on. I feel like they wouldn't like ticks either.

Could they do another Freddy vs Jason? Maybe Freddy vs. Jason's Mom Mrs. Voorhees: "You were one of dem filthy teenage boys who tortured my son. Just because he wasn't looking like all of ye." Freddy: Did Pamela become Amish? 😉

I've heard good things about that and will have to check it out. But it was more a fan love letter sorta deal wasn't it?
