    It seems to be one of those love it or hate it movies. And from people I know and trust it's evenly split. That makes me want to see it more actually. I wonder if it is just Zach Snyder rubbing people wrong. I think I am the only person in the world who liked Sucker Punch.

        I don't know that I'll go that far but it was meh. A week later that's the conclusion I've come to.

          All-American had a great post once about why Superman as a hero is problematic. I still dig Superman though and Smallville is one of my favorite TV series ever. I really enjoyed how they showed Clark coming into his own. I also liked Lana and Lois.

            I Loved sucker punch. I also was entertained by man of steel. A little bummed they didn't forecast lex luthor like they forecasted the joker in batman begins.

              What's to explain? It's a bunch of people, most of whom you've never met, who are just as likely to be homicidal maniacs as they are to be normal everyday people, with whom you share the minutiae of your everyday life. It's totally normal, and everyone would understand.

                Captain, my 8 year old, LOVES ET. We watch it at least once a week. It is awful.

                  Yeah I liked it too. Made me wish there was another season of Eastbound and Down.

                        Thank you! Thank you!

                        As with many Steven Spielburg movies, ET does not age well. I say this as a huge fan of Minority Report.

                          I really enjoyed World War Z up until the very end. Then it turned into a Green Peace commercial. That was the final re-write? What a waste. It almost ruined the rest of the movie for me.

                            I read that they left it open ended that way to pave the way for the inevitable sequel. I read they filmed a lot of footage in Russia that they didn't even use.

                              We watched Snitch on Redbox, which was decent. Interesting commentary on how they try to get people to tell on everyone else.

                                For a minute I thought you were talking about "Snatch", and I didn't really understand the "tell on everyone else" part. Snatch is my favorite Brad Pitt movie. I don't have a favorite Dwayne Johnson movie (well, I did like him in Be Cool).
