    In Robocop you don't need to pause. It was quite clear when it was first seen in theaters.

      Dark City was one of the few films that Roger Ebert loved so much that he did a DVD commentary.

    Sometimes I like it when they don't fix the flaws. But saw Wild Wild West in the theaters with a group of friends when i was a kid...we caught it. Also, never needed to pause Robocop to see that scene. And the Hulkbuster scene, I think it was stated that was a very last second decision to put that in there so it clearly wasn't given the proper treatment. Ironically that's what Marvel looks like now.

    @Wolf359inc 24 дні тому

    Arnie’s stunt doubles never bothered me in T2.
    What did bother me was the motorcycle jump into the canal/ waterway/ whatever you call it. In all the shots leading up to the jump, the edge comes to a fine point. However, when we get the front view of the bike making the jump, the end of the edge is wide, and flat. There are a few such inconsistencies in the movie, that the person responsible for continuity should be ashamed of, but they don’t ruin the experience.
    Cheers,

    In Infiniti War Thanos himself, and Black Panter's oddly elongated arms stand out more than Banner's composite. When it comes to humans, or humanoid beings, photorealism is exactly that. "Photo" realistic. Once they begin to move, the CGI is exposed. The only CGI movie I've seen, so far, that suspends belief/disbelief is The Way Of Water, and only before that, the original Avatar. In my opinion the only person that seems to be only content with pushing the limits is James Cameron.

    No one will be a better Hulk than Ed Norton. Marvel definitely screwed up when they turned the Hulk into a bitch and not let him be the angrey Hulk. Plus, Ruffalo's Hulk looks so mediocre to Norton's version from "The Incredible Hulk." Also, in no point in the comics has the Hulk ever refused to come out and take over Banner's body. So, there was no reason for the Ruffalo to be wearing the Hulk buster armor. Ruffalo's version of the Hulk in the first Avengers movie was fine, but they dropped the ball big time after that. Oh, no one is going to watch "Wild Wild West" for any reason (junk or no junk).
