Have you seen it then, Juan. Is it full of razzamatazz and all guns blazing a glory?
They were championing this over on the Ghostbusters board you know. 'Proper film' they said because they are lacking the old grey matter.

It's a real snoozefest Bobby, and I hadn't even been drinking beforehand
There really isn't any need to go into details, they got almost everything in the film's tone absolutely wrong and it was built on a junket formulaic exercise in the first plae which neither excited nor challenged the viewer in any remote way.
Will Smith and Margot Gadot (Or whatever her name isn't) were fun and had chemistry but the situation their characters were in was so off-the-wall and silly that any presence they brought was quickly overlooked by the next flashy thing.
If you take the worst parts of Escape from LA, Resident Evil and any comic book story with a swirly tower of light in the centre of a city and multiple those bad moments by poor colour scheme, cliched (And dated) soundtrack and Ghostbusters 2016 special effects and you are halfway towards how bad this movie is.
Just to set this straight; Ghostbusters 2016 was much better than this and that STANK!
I hope that saves you the hassle of seeing it for yourself Bobby. I really didn't want to see this as I respect the source material for some of the characters quite a bit. Sadly I'd seen all the other in-flight movies and needed to kill a couple of hours prior to getting some shuteye. In that respect it might have helped actually

It isn't on my list of things to see, Juan..but I suppose I might give it a chance if I was on a long plane journey and had bugger all to do. I watched the entirety of Freaky Friday with Lindsay Lohan on a plane journey once, have you ever seen that one?
I'm not surprised that Will Smith and Margot Gadot had great chemistry, they have been at it in real life.
Anyway, I hope DC movies start to get better. I (along with most I'm sure) want that Cyborg movie.

I haven't seen Freaky Friday with Lindsay Lohan Bobby but I did see the original with him out of Kula Shaker's mum starring as the twins. That was a long time ago though.
I thought Will was a happily married man who was faithful and stuff Bobby. Are you telling me Margot Gadot got him to get off with her?
His wife is a baddie in Gotham, she'll kick his ass if that's the case!
I don't know much about the Justice League Bobby, when comic book stories get too many characters involved it hurts my head and so I try not to go beyond the basics. I know nothing about Cyborg other than he was created by that Cyberdyne Systems guy and sits about in a large satellite circling Earth which Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman occasionally visit him at (They never seem to take any food with them which I think is rude!). I'm sure he's cool though and will be awesome in his own movie.
Oh, the Flash and Batman show up in this movie for a bit Bobby. And Superman's already dead so we're looking at a post BvS story which means I'm hoping they get a different writing team in as the lack of direction is abundant and that won't make for JLA movies being good either

Yes indeed Juan, so go the rumours. Will Smith, much like any celebrity wants to have his pipe AND smoke it. They've got it all and they always want more more more!
I know nothing about Cyborg either, but I know that his solo movie is much demanded, even more so than the Aquaman movie.
It matters not though, WB will just beep it up again and we will see plenty of angry comic book nerds in these comic book shops SCREAMING AND CRYING! Almost delicious.

Aquaman is getting a movie??
What's he going to do, speak to dolphins?
This is just getting silly now Bobby. Surely somebody has to tell Warner Brothers what is what regarding their comic book stuff

Apparently so. It stars that guy in Batman V Superman who appeared to be drowning in the sea.
Say, how long have I had Billy Hartnell as my avatar now? Is it time I regenerated?

I'm not sure an Aquaman movie is going to be well received Bobby, particularly after all these misfires to get a DC universe built up
Well, we do have a slight problem Bobby. You see you've had Billy there for about 2 or 3 weeks now and there's only 10 more Sunday's until the Crimbo special and somaybe get rid of Handyand do the Capaldo reveal on the day itselfyou'll need to be pushing through them starting today and changing them every Sunday for it all to fit in
Exciting stuff though, I'm glad you mentioned it and we didn't find ourselves in deep water trying to cram too many Doctors into such a short space of time!

Those are all very bad movies and yes, the theme seems to be disrespecting the source material wingnut.
That said, BvS had the cool Batman fight scene and Wonder Woman in it and B&R had Arnie's pun quips which at least redeem both rubbish films a tiny bit and make them memorable.
I recall nothing of interest from SS in the slightest and that's why it gets to sit alongside 2 other movies which cost a lot of money which were equally as crap in my opinion.

No Megaforce? The bix box office bomb from 1982 that was a huge financial disaster. The film had a marketing that was abead of its time including videkgames and songs on the radio. It had a huge budget i terms of 1982 money costing over 20 million dollars, cost far more than star wars at the time and had a huge marketing push. The film bombed hard against star trek II and has some of the cheapest effects imaginable.
