Convenient edit for Dune as well. ***** Solid starter episode. Quote Link to comment

EH_STEVE Posted March 21, 2023 Author Share Posted March 21, 2023 Shazam 2 was really good. purple_beard 1 Quote Link to comment
Ridley Prime Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Based on how I saw Shazam 2 is being received, decided to just wait till I get a month of HBO Max again sometime to see it. Between Wonder Woman 1984, Aquaman 2 not looking so good, and now this, the DCEU couldn't have a good sequel to save its life. That universe is on its way out now anyway, and things like Shazam 2 being released is merely a formality since they were already completed earlier. People are just waiting for the James Gunn train to come along, while whatever remains that gets released will just be filled with mostly empty theater seats on day 1. Quote Link to comment

As the first was only good for the last 20 minutes, when the rest of the kids turned into Shazam. The 2nd movie was much better all around to me.

Ridley Prime Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 I didn’t care much for seeing the other kids turned into Shazam. With the first film it was tolerable to have one adult acting like a kid for most of it, but the sequel having a bunch of them I'd probably rather listen to keys scratching car doors. The old 70’s TV version of Billy Batson making a cameo from what I heard was nice at least, similar to the old TV Wonder Woman making a cameo at the end of WW 1984. DLurkster 1 Quote Link to comment
DLurkster Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 I realized that after watching the movie, I thought that was a cool Easter egg. Quote Link to comment
alienboyva Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 (edited) I posted this in another thread, but Good Burger 2 is coming to Paramount+... Speaking of bring things back.... The ORIGINAL Power Rangers are coming back for a 30th anniversary special! *See tweet below for trailer* I was never that into Power Ranges, but I do remember watching parts of the first season as a kid and I had some of they toys from McDonalds. To bad they couldn't have done this sooner... R.I.P. Trini and, especially Tommy. T_T I would have loved to seem him back doing all his bad-ass martial arts. It's kind of funny this gets announced, because recently I've been watching the original Power Rangers on Pluto TV and I absolutely love how cheesy and 90's it is. BTW, they better keep that kick-ass theme song, and not just have this ochastrated version that's in the trailer. That theme song is literally the best part! EDIT: I didn't realize this had already been announced. Edited March 22, 2023 by alienboyva Ridley Prime 1 Quote Link to comment

Ridley Prime Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 It was nice to find out earlier that the Zyuranger sentai that Mighty Morphin was based on is on Tubi. There was some sentai before Zyuranger in the 80’s that they tried to Americanize, but wasn’t really a success. In the 90’s though it was a big success. Can thank the dinosaur theme of Zyuranger/MMPR for that I guess. The Once And Always trailer threw me for a surprise with Rita. Her VA’s still got it, along with Alpha Five’s. I guess it figures they would give some in-universe reason for Trini being gone because of her actress while still paying homage to her, but it’s going to be an emotional ride regardless. I heard earlier that JDF turned down being in this before he passed away (by some that knew him), so will take what I can get with whoever this other green ranger is. Amy Jo Johnson did the same. Would’ve preferred Jason too, but a mix between the old (Zack and Billy) and new (Rocky and Kat) of Mighty Morphin is reasonable, considering. Ithrak Utopia 1 Quote Link to comment
purple_beard Posted March 30, 2023 Share Posted March 30, 2023 Shazam 2 was better than the 1st. I don't get the hate on it. As far as dcu goes, wb and DC are directionless on how they want to proceed with a interconnected spin off and team up collab like marvel pulled off . They don't have to do marvel, but they need a plan. **** John wick 4 was solid ***** 3/29 mandalorian episode.....whoa... Quote Link to comment
Ridley Prime Posted March 30, 2023 Share Posted March 30, 2023 I understand Shazam fights two old ladies and some CGI dragon instead of what the end credits scene of the first film was setting up with Sivana. This is the only place on the internet I’ve actually seen positive reception for Shazam 2 which even then is more than I expected. Any finalized thoughts I might give once I see it on HBO Max at some point, but it’s just DCEU leftovers in the grand scheme of things. James Gunn’s DCU is the plan moving forward.

DLurkster Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 I know enough from Secret invasion so similar to TotK, I don't need to see anymore but I'm also not against watching anything new for the heck of it. Saw that Blue Beetle trailer for the first time here, hmm...pretty good, pretty good. Comes out a week after my b-day. I think that is a worthy movie to see on my b-day month. Quote Link to comment
Ridley Prime Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 Aside from liking Xolo Mariduena due to Cobra Kai, Blue Beetle feels pretty by the numbers in premise and everything, though am sure it’ll have some enjoyable moments here and there. Quote Link to comment
