Tarantino and Clooney were brothers in from Dusk Til Dawn I thought

@mikethesnow there were brothers in the Dusk til Dawn Series, that is based on the movie.

Yes, the Gecko brothers.

Child 44
Good cast: Gary Oldman, Tom Hardy, Vincent Cassel.
Apparently it was a box office bomb which is a pity. Movie runs over two hours but doesn't feel like it.
4 orphans out of five dissidents.

I was a few panheads in after eye surgery, but I'm a fan of Soviet crime genre.

@raznomore Except it's not DC so it wont be pants.
Apart from Wonder Woman have they made anything decent since the Christian Bale Batman films?

I find some of them watchable (but I'm not a Bale Batman uber fan - even though I'm a big fan of Nolan's non Batman films) but they just don't make them at the same level as Marvel. Hopefully Aquaman follows on from Wonder Woman and is decent.

Nope.

Venom - 3 parasites out of 5 plots to destroy the world
Decent enough without really doing a great deal or trying too hard.

Zero Dark Thirty is just so fucking good. It might be one of my favourite movies now

I think it is so much better than the Hurt Locker which won the Oscar.
Mortal Engines, average as fuck with uncharismatic actors (aside from Hugo Weaving) and lots of CGI (which is ok) and one character just disappears from the movie.

I liked Suicide Squad, but I'm in the minority.
I liked it better than any of the Superman movies.

if there were odds on Mortal Engines being a failure I would have put the house and my dog on it.
Jackson was clever with Meet the Feebles.
Talented and witty with Braindead.
Someone doing a lot with not much on The Frighteners.
A genius with LOTR.
Ambitious, too reliant on CGI and not totally in touch with the audience on King Kong.
The Lovely Bones was where shit started to really go wrong. Too soppy too muddled too much reliance on unnecessary CGI. Again totally getting the audience wrong.
I know he's a producer now but you know he's micro managing the shit out of this latest effort.

Didn’t he also sack Ryan Gosling for Mark Wahlberg for Lovely Bones? Not great decision making there either
