Creepia Posted December 30, 2018 Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 Ooof that movie gave me all kinds of headaches. Fun enough I suppose, but it had no depth. Then again, the book doesn't either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creepia Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 Just saw Aquaman. It had some of the worst dialogue in any movie I've ever seen. The performances were all wooden, but it was decent. The creativity was there and executed fairly well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royal Nakamura Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 I actually didnt mind Aquaman that much. It didnt blow me away or anything (similarly to what you said, the acting seemed wooden at times), but it was visually pretty good. Fight scenes were decent. I think there was the occasional scene or two where it felt like so much was happening, but all in all - I liked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M3J Posted January 8, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2019 Is it? I'm relieved, it was sweet to see the rangers fight with and use superhuman strength without the suit/armor. Plus, Naomi Scott is hot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creepia Posted January 8, 2019 Report Share Posted January 8, 2019 I'm no fan of Power Rangers, but you barely saw the Rangers fight in that movie. It wanted to do some sort of Breakfast Club thing with those kids, but that movie missed the mark on the one thing people actually wanted to see. Action. There was like 10 minutes of it. Not a bad movie, just poorly paced and directionless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a bad movie, just poorly paced and directionless. Nah. There are already 5000+ hours of mindless Power Rangers action out there and that is without Super Sentai and Kamen Raider. People wanted something nostalgic, but unique and new from the movie and that's what we got. Not what was expected, but not a bad thing really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creepia Posted January 8, 2019 Report Share Posted January 8, 2019 (edited) Except that studio didn't make the movie to please the old/pre-existing fans. They had that core audience no matter what they did. The goal of any remake or reboot is to pull in a new audience and without the Power Ranger action, the biggest complaint that I saw was about the lack of action. They are super powered ninjas...and they didn't act like it. It would be like rebooting X-Men and not having mutant fights because we've already seen countless hours of it before. That is not the point, the Power Ranger action is the sole reason for this franchise and this reboot to exist.

LEGION Posted January 8, 2019 Report Share Posted January 8, 2019 Eh. I disagree. From what I could tell people didn't want a reboot if it was going to be more of the usual. Sure, people also wanted more action, but I've only ever seen that as a minor critic, not a movie breaking complain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creepia Posted January 8, 2019 Report Share Posted January 8, 2019 I didn't say it was a movie breaking complaint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNX Posted January 8, 2019 Report Share Posted January 8, 2019 They were more focused on the entirety of the franchise as opposed to just this singular introduction. They were already planning like six movies when they were writing this which is probably why they went so heavy on the chemistry instead of action building a foundation for the series and giving fans something to look forward to. It was risky but I guess it paid off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a bad movie, just poorly paced and directionless. If they were planning on a series, then it was a decent gamble, I guess. It has more character depth to it than the shows, and I'm okay with that. Hopefully we've got enough world building that we'll see more action next movie.
