  1. I didn’t know Aquaman had come out. I love how DC turned a campy hero into what looks like a Game of Thrones reject, and made him all dark and brooding like they did in the Justice Leaague movie. Why does every hero have to be tragic now? I’d like a remake of Blankman and Meteor Man, with them both stone faced, brooding, and pensive. I want no fun at the movies.

    Man, I’ve been really critical lately. I’m sorry, I will say Bohemian Rhapsody really impressed me. I had a lot more fun at that movie than I anticipated. Many historical liberties taken to make the band members look like saints, but it was very entertaining.

    1. I had a great time at the movie too. The problem however, is that Bohemian Rhapsody is a great movie for a night out at the cinema, but really doesn’t have much value as a dvd, because frankly you could watch a proper Queen concert in the time you could watch the movie, and with the historical liberties, you won’t gain any insight into the band.

      Okay, let’s end that sentence there before it becomes a whole paragraph

        1. There were several pointless annoying little inaccuracies too. In the movie, they play “Fat Bottomed Girls” on their first U.S. tour way before it came out on Jazz, and they don’t write “We Will Rock You” until 1980. Really irritating to guys like you and me, changes for absolutely no reason. Also all the members except Freddie refusing to party because they have wives is stupid revisionism from a band that had too much involvement in the final product.

        3. Simply put … Bohemian Rhapsody was not made for us music geeks. It was made to be shared with a general audience. Everyone knows about Mercury’s debauchery. Didn’t need to be the focal point of the movie . Frankly, I like that May and Taylor didn’t throw their dead friend under the bus. I’m sure you can find some Behind the Music expose to get your fill of that.

      1. The acclaim of Nolan’s Batman put DC on the serious train, eh? Plus, Marvel have nailed the whole thing by getting the balance right, so DC are up against it regardless.

        1. I loved Nolan’s Batman because he tried to make Batman into a character that could exist in our world. Stuff like ordering the prototype masks, etc. I thought Nolan did an amazing job at putting Batman in our world. Before the Joker blew it up that is!

        2. Exactly, aye… I love the Nolan Batman flicks (well, mostly… I still think the final instalment was a huge letdown).
