Anybody going to see Carl Manvers in Captain Marvel?

Replicas.
I've been seeing ads for it for quite a while now, and it has looked interesting, although the ads were thin on storyline.
But I didn't realize Alice Eve was in it - they seemed to be hiding that fact.

So now I will need to see it.

I know Keanu has more money than he knows what to do with, but I have continued to watch his work in lesser films. The ads for Replicas gave me the feel that this was another of his less-than-stellar works. But now that the storyline is more revealed, plus the surrounding cast, gives me hope.

The daughter Sophie has a lot of credits in work I've not seen, including Lights Out with the same character name.

The initial ads I saw had me wondering how similar to Criminal it would be. But this might be trying to vie for the Alita territory.

Alita: Battle Angel - 14 February
Live Die Repeat and Repeat
Dark Phoenix - 7 June
Top Gun 2: Maverick
Hellboy 2 - 12 April
The Kid (Adam) - 23 May
John Wick 3 (?Parabellum?) - 17 May
Wonder Woman 1984 - June 2020
Bill & Ted 2019

Going to see Aquaman tomorrow. If I'm feeling cheeky, I may slip in to check out Into the Spiderverse. Showtimes align just perfectly, so how can I not ?

Alita looks interesting. No interest in Dark Phoenix. Meh to Live Die Live. Cringe at the Top Gun remake. Hellboy 2 ? Sorry, did I miss the rebooted 1st movie ? Pass. No idea about The Kid. Prob need to see John Wick 1 and 2 before I see 3. Yes to Wonder Woman. Another cringe for Bill and Ted.

Now, the big MUST sees...

GODZILLA: King of the Monsters - multiple times, I hope.
Captain Marvel ( please don't be a Mary Sue , please don't be a Mary Sue … )
Avengers: End Game
Spiderman-Far from home

sensing a theme here...

So, there's apparently a follow up to
Angry Birds Really ?
Also..
Terminator 6 ( untitled ,with Arnold and Linda Hamilton. Looks VEEERY promising

Frozen 2
Jumangi 3
And ZombieLand 2.

I have next to no interest in seeing ANY of those. Good grief.

Hate to break it to ya, bud.

Carl Manvers has already come out and said that she could pick up Thor's hammer and she can move a planet.

What we have here is also the least feminine female action figures I've ever seen in my life...

Do Right, Be Right. :)

Oh... and the first promotional pic for the new Terminator flick.

Can you guess which one is the LGBT2000

Nice Hillary haircut, Linda.

Umm, I was fished in w/ Rey in SW. TFA. Cute, plucky, street wise... oh, and then she picks up a lit Light Sabre, for the 1st time, and defeats the most powerful Sith in the Universe.

With absolutely no Force training, or LS training, what so ever...

And don't get me started on Nurse Who. FFS.

Captain Marvel can't pick up Stormbreaker , or I'm done w/ Marvel. Out. Vision was a comical one off, because, as we're told, you put the hammer in an elevator, the elevator still works, and it's not worthy...

Just, no.

Check Aquaman as ' seen '.

Decent flick and I really did enjoy some elements... the whole Earth and Water are one message is very nice. I wish more would heed how we mistreat our oceans.

Jason played Jason as Aquaman, which I think was a good way to go w/ this character. Sorry, but the DCU is B team to Marvel, and there's just no way to get around it. But even so, they can carve out their own little niche and stay in their lane, they can survive. At least, for a while.

I'll hold off on a more detailed review. If you liked Avatar and the ' whole new world ' sort of vibe, you'll dig this movie.

So you really dig the Great Manbun Movie. Did you stay for the coda?

I did stay, and to be honest, I had 1 question about it.

Select to view spoiler:

I ducked out when Arthur and Mirra were on the boat, after their scrap w/ Black Manta in Sicily. Last I saw of Manta, he had a chain and cannon balls around his neck and fell off a cliff into the water. At the end of the movie, he's floating on a small plank of wood, Titanic style, all busted up and rescued by some fishermen. How'd he get there ?

Also, I'd think that the conspiracy nerd who is helping Manta back to health wouldn't be so gun-ho if he knew Manta wanted to kill Aquaman, but that's just me.

I had seen a trailer some time ago. But yesterday I saw a longer, more involved trailer.

I really want to see it. And yes, I do like snow.

And the Alita trailers are looking better and better. Really, better than anything out in the past few months.

The Long Home is now pushed to 2019.

I already wanted to see Cold Pursuit. I am wondering if the Weather of the past couple weeks adds to the draw for the film, giving some people greater respect for the conditions and lifestyle. Some people seem to have been rudely awakened by reality intruding into their routine.

I do hope it does well. And they seem to be pushing the humor angle. Seems dry, deadpan. Which I like.

It opens this Friday, and next week is Alita. I literally cannot envision anything beyond the cinema horizon of Alita.
