feel like I should report that I read a really positive review of this one yesterday. Maybe more franchises should stick a decade in between instalments

they're advertising the big bashy robots think a lot over here too. fuckers.

A couple ringers for next year's poll announced today: a M.A.S.K. movie by F. Gary Gray and a Gremlins reboot by Chris Columbus. Wheeeeeee(ze).

you missed the real note of dread: this is meant to expand the G.I. Joe films into a Hasbro Cinematic Universe

m.a.s.k. had a spirited and memorable theme song, and a couple of kinda neat toys, but really this is bottom-of-the-barrel stuff here

The M.A.S.K. theme rocks.

Can't wait to see Rocky Dennis singing 'Cuban Pete'.

The top 6 box-office grossers of the weekend (and 10 of the top 12) were sequels, so let's turn the lights out on this Hollywood shit, it was a fun century.

Keep shouting, man, I don't think that cloud has learned its lesson yet.

it was a fun century

yeah but was it tho, rly

seeya at The First Purge, Lunchie!

oh so you have no problem with PREquels

this seems like hollywood's worst summer crop in decades.

Leave No Trace, Three Identical Strangers, Won't You Be My Neighbour, Sorry To Bother You, Eighth Grade and Hereditary are all in wide release this week.

It's true that that only gets you six out of seven days filled with Moviepass, but as sequels go Ant-Man & The Wasp, But Not In Her Vagina is fun, Incredibles 2 is less eugenicist than the first, and I haven't seen any of the Hotel Transylvanias but apparently #3 is the first one that Genndy Tartakovsky has written? [googles: turns out the first one was written by Peter Baynham & Robert Smigel!]

GLASS

looking through previous summers, 2000 was bad year too -- the biggest hit was Mission Impossible 2 for instance. apart from that, I had to go back to 1976 to find a worse year.

it's been a great summer for movie watching for me, going back to May

Mary Poppins Begins

Where we discover that Mary's ultra-wealthy parents were killed by a thug in an alleyway before her eyes, causing her to dedicate her life to making Gotham London safe from criminals, flying to the rescue of innocents using her rocket-propelled umbrella.

Living her double life as a stripper where he bones dudes jessica jones style then kills them like a black widow only can

She
