@antipodean Yeah like TR said, why would you need the original? Heck, why would you even need a specific guitar?

@Nepia you like what you like...plenty of movies in here have been slated and i either enjoyed or thought was ok, while others i thought was shit and others liked...
I still havent watched Batman v Superman, more cos i dont really like Superman...
It's at least 50% a Batman movie if that helps ...
and:
So watched Barman v Superman (over 2 nights cos its so god damned long) and was so so.
Tries to be a bit dark while having a more fantasy feel to it too, even when comparing with the likes of Thor...
I prefer Wonder Woman as Diana than as WW.
Not a fan of Batmans 'suit' in this, shades of Iron Man, Superman was well, Superman...
Quite timely that I just got TR Jnr a DC Comics Character Encyclopedia for Xmas to go with the Marvel one I got him earlier this year
Oh, started to watch Serenity and realized I have seen it, but was still good 2nd time round.

Never finished Bat vs Sup, as you said it's long, boring long
Just never grabbed me like the Marvel films have done ( and I'm no comic book fanboy either)
DC are playing catch up and so far are fucking it up. Suicide Squad was seven shades of shit,
They have chosen the wrong guys to make these films, Snyder and Ayer are shit film makers. Really shit -

I like them both. There is a problem with the Marvel movies that nothing matters, nobody gets killed and all the bad guys are the same.
Still fun to watch though.
I like that the DC movies are trying something different.

And I'm never quite sure who the main star is, because at least one or ten of his/ her mates will turn up.

Pretty sure it's the guy demanding $50m per movie, RD Jnr
Haven't enjoyed all the Marvel films, only prefer Iron Man and Captain America. Thor is meh, Hulk is like watching a video game. The 2nd Avengers film was so so.
Overall favourite is easily Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol 2 looks awesome. Have enjoyed seeing the trailer before Rogue One too
After the Dark Knight trilogy it feels there's nothing left to achieve with Batman. -

@Kirwan mate, Batman is probably my favorite superhero (uber organised vigilante - which explains why I still watch Gotham, in hope they show more of the young Batman) never a fan of Superman, grew up with this WW
although looking forward to seeing, er, more of the new WW

I distinctly recall watching Linda Carter get around in that outfit and having happy thoughts in my shorts.
-
@MajorRage am cool with both...Linda has her place, as does Gal now.

Took the boy to Moana today. It got a round of applause when it finished and rightly so, excellent movie and would recommend you get along to it. Movie of the year for me, though I may be a bit biased..

Took my girls to see it today as well
Big kiwi influence with Tem Morrison and a few others doing voices.
A typical Disney flick ( great animation and full of songs)
Will it be the next Frozen? Let's hope the fuck not. -
Moana: wha Heihei out of rima Sopoagas.
Enjoyable movie even though they appeared to screw Taika out of a writing credit. I thought they handled the 'culture' really well and in the end Maui wasn't actually a fatso he was just massive, must be the Tongan Maui even though he was voiced by a Samoan. I like how they just decided to not give a shit about accents and let the characters do it in their own - it was especially noticeable when the poly words were spoken as the Maori actors were enunciating on the first vowel and the non Maori were doing it more on the second.
Good to see a decent Kiwi contingent with Tem, the Grandma, Jermaine and Oscar Knightly who sounded like he was the freshest PI to ever step off a boat.
How embarrassing though for Tem, proud Te Arawa (often known as the people of the mirror amongst other iwi), nephew of Howie - and they get some American dude to sing his characters songs. WTF! They even let The Rock sing. The songs were pretty good, although I thought they could have used a few more PI drum sounds as opposed to vaguely African sounds at times.
Heihei was awesome.
