I just saw The Raid last weekend. It was pretty badass. Be prepared to cringe in sympathy pains.

Ok, I just watched the trailers for Prometheus, and it does look pretty awesome.

I do not care about your opinions on movies and shows. While we agree sometimes, we also wildly disagree just as often.

I felt that way watching parts of the trailer.

Did I ?

I don't recall saying that, because I don't believe that it sucked. I think it had a ton of plot holes and I did have some issues with it. But it was still a good movie, and much better than Batman Begins.

I've always taken issue with Nolan's decision to keep the series as "realistic" and "grounded" as he did. I think he missed out on some opportunities and it honestly baffles me a bit. I mean he had no problem making a movie about Magical dream hijinks, or a movie about a machine that clones people, why avoid some of the more fantastical elements of Batman.

But whatever, the movies are wildy popular, my issues aside both of them had some great parts. I love the first half of Batman Begins, that was good stuff. And despite Bane being incomrehensible the 6 minute preview I saw for this film has me pumped.
