The Force Awakens is the best movie ever.
Arguments with or against me?

Against.
Personal opinion, Force Awakens is my favorite of the seven Star Wars films, but I would have to say that it is not the best ever. I believe that A New Hope is better, even though I may enjoy The Force Awakens more. Objectively I’d say that there are even more movies in the giant library of cinema that are better in at least one aspect than either A New Hope or Force Awakens.

Saw Only Yesterday a few days ago. I was about to consider it one of the best movies so far of 2016, but then I discovered it’s original release was in 1991. So that kinda disqualifies it. Great film tho, see it if it’s playing near you.

Has anyone ever made a General Animated Movie Discussion?

I haven’t seen the 2nd one. I’ll have to check that out, but I’m still skeptical…one of the best things about the 1959 movie is that they never actually show Jesus’ face, but you still feel His influence on the story very strongly. Kind of a “less is more” thing.

I agree. The unfortunate thing is in the trailer Jesus does talk and converse a lot with Judah. (And by unfortunate thing, I don’t mean it’s bad that Jesus is talking, but it’s bad that we lose that less is more awesomeness. Though… I’m sure you gathered that.)
Could it work?
Hopefully.
Will it?
Um… Maybe.

Ok, so I’ve got a bit of a question:
Could someone who has seen the Death Note Netflix movie tell me their thoughts about it?
Because the series itself was suggested to me by some friends, but I personally don’t like those Japanese art styles so I would like to know how it compares.

Only movies that will be remembered for ages are worthy of going to theaters with no hesitation…others are pirate material.

I recently saw Dunkirk. It’s more than just a movie, it’s an immersive experience that truly makes you feel like you’re into the situation. My favorite part by far was the areal conflict on the planes because they’re just so realistic: every time a plane turned, you could hear the sound of the metal vibrating (which also makes you realize how much of a slim sheet of metal they actually were), when they got hit, there was no big explosion at all, but the real simple smoke trail, and it was so good when they landed (or they splashed down in the sea). People rarely speak, and there aren’t really flashed out characters (which added to the grounded realism, as I highly doubt anyone would speak a word in such a situation).
Overall, I encourage everyone to watch it in the movie theater with the biggest screen and sound system you can find, because it’s a true blast! Nolan and his crew did a fantastic job.

So Pacific Rim 2 looks amazing. The new robot designs are awesome, what we’ve seen of the new kaiju looks promising, the premise seems pretty good, and by god if the movie is half as good as this trailer music, its sure to fantastic.

Yeah, the general tone does seem to be different, but I’m hyped none the less.

And that’s about all it had going for it.
When you (used to) go to movie theaters, what do you like to eat?
I usually have a nachos and a sprite. Sometimes I get a small pizza too.

I get lemonade, popcorn, and dots.
I don’t like dots, but to each their own.
My family usually has a popcorn bag that we share amongst ourselves (but it’s mostly for my mom)

Around the end of October, I watched Gareth Edwards’ The Creator, and here are my thoughts about it.
Without giving away too much of the plot, It was Good.
Far from being Phenomenal, Amazing, or even outstanding, but overall it was great.
Many people anticipated this film because they wanted something fresh & new that doesn’t rely on an established brand or franchise to market itself.
Plus, many still remember fondly about Rouge One.
(This is understandable, but I think his Spinoff only got that amount of praise from SW fans because of the whole battle on Scariff.)
It had an interesting take on a possible future vision, and the premise is a bit cliché but still entertaining.
The characters were a huge problem, though.
Most of them felt plain flat and simply uninteresting.
The movie shares a lot of issues with RO, but it was still a nice ride anyway.
My rating: 7.5/10

I’m a big fan of the fact that all three original Bourne films end with the same Moby song. Any other franchise would use whatever song is popular then and there for each individual film, but the Bourne crew was like " 
oh yeah that’s the one Moby all day long "
