Super Sweet Movie Discussion Thread

Finally saw John Wick 3, got it on sale for 10 bucks. I get that the producers are building the world of John Wick, but it's gotten to the point where it's super gratuitous. Keanu Reeves and the stunt team/choreographers did incredible work, the story people need to tighten the story telling up.

I’m looking forward to A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood. Apparently, Tom Hanks really is related to Mr. Rogers. It’s a distant relation, but it’s there.

Thought it was a really good movie. Kind of wish it was more focused on us learning about Mr. Rogers than him "fixing" someone. In a lot of ways the themes reached out to me in some ways that I struggled with. Didn't have that kind of relationship with my father, but there are definitely some things I wish I had more time to work on before he passed.

I was really looking forward to this movie and then trailer came out. Hopefully Pits' role will be treated fairly even if the rest of the movie looks formulaic as hell. Great casting though.

I've been waiting on this movie since rumors began several years ago. Honestly, if the trailer is any indication, I'm very disappointed - to the point I may not see it; it'll probably just piss me off to see Hollyweird hack this up (ie. Lone Survivor et al).

I'm not a fan of the casting either; e.i. this is not a Samuel L Jackson type film. Production comes across as a B rate, 90's, made for tv movie. How can I possibly be excited about a movie when their trailer shows "the hero" slide down a rope, remove his helmet, and give some kind of cheesy ass hair flick with a supposed "grizzled" "I'm here to save you look". YGTBFSM. I almost stopped watching the trailer right then.

The story of Pits deserves better.

I'll wait on you all to see how your reviews here go.
 
Love it. Only criticism, really just a nitpick. Not a huge fan of their armor version. I read Kingdom Come as a child and her iconic eagle armor is just etched on my memory. In the trailer Gadot looks like someone stuffed in a rigid outfit that seems a size or two too small for her and I can imagine how uncomfortable it must be to wear smth covering your entire body like that. I prefer the ancient greek armor inspired one from the comics. Other than that, the trailer looks cool. Gonna be another success.

I lost interest after Sean Connery. It was the over-the-top silliness of the Roger Moore era that killed it for me. Daniel Craig in Casino Royale brought me back to fanboidom. He bleeds, he gets drunk...the physical violence is so much better...and they've shitcanned most of the campy stupidity.
 
I'm just criticizing one particular design choice, not the actress, trailer, or movie. I'm absolutly looking forward to it. Gal Gadot is still my fav cast for the current DCEU and I hope Patty Jenkins will be allowed to make more DC related movies.

I don't know anything about all this comic book stuff but that helped seal the deal for me. I'm in.

I went back and watched the trailer only to see her stuffed into this outfit that seems too small for her.
