That might be true (and I might be unfairly pre-judging Twilight boy) but I actually thought the Ledger pick was going to work. I'll try to remain open to this one.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Kepler again.

If you've only seen Pattinson in the Twilight movies (or as Cedric Diggory) you should educate yourself before commenting. He's done some incredible work since then.

Like the movie where the twist was it was 9/11 for some reason.

Maybe he'll surprise like Michael Keaton did.

Or Heath Ledger did as Joker?

Fanboys are the worst. Pattinson is not a bad actor unless the only thing you know him from is Twilight. That would be like judging Christian Bale on Newsies ;) (or about 10000 other examples where people ripped acting decisions by directors)

Hell when someone posted Nolan's Batmobile on here when filming BB the reaction was utter disdain. And the Ledger choice was mocked to high heaven. Fans have short memories :)

FYI it should be noted Pattinson was one of the names a lot of the fanboys wanted and on most of the sites I go to (where the negativity makes this board look like a hippy drum circle :eek: ) it is almost universal praise. I was rather shocked cause they literally hate everything. This is also who Reeves wanted for quite some time.

(also this news kind of broke 2 weeks ago the trades are just confirming it now)

What does? Mocking the angry fanboy nerds who hate everything? Trust me THOSE are closer to Hipsters than I am. ;)

I honestly was expecting them to burn the internet to the ground the way they did when Ledger was announced. But like I said Pattinson has had his fans for a while and people going back to like a year ago were hoping he would get the job. When the "inside sources" starting saying this was a done deal a couple weeks ago I have never seen that site so happy about a casting.

It helps that Nolan cast him in his latest movie. To many a nerd that is a seal of approval ;)

I was pumped when I heard he was going to be the new Batman, because of American Psycho. "I'll take similar personalities for $500, Alex."
 
Re: Movie Thread #50: Godzilla gives us permission to nuke our enemies

If tweets are any indication, we know one person who will be excited about the choice, assuming Kristen Stewart is not included...
 
Re: Movie Thread #50: Godzilla gives us permission to nuke our enemies

That is a whole new level of pathetic :eek:
 
Re: Movie Thread #50: Godzilla gives us permission to nuke our enemies

I'm a fanboy? Are you new here?

But I said I'll remain open to it.

Godzilla: King of the Monsters:

B+/A- For everyone that was complaining about a lack of Godzilla screen time in the 2014 movie, they listened... If you want your monsters fighting and destroying cities, this is your flick. Acting isn't going to win an Oscar, but it gets the story over. Also, I saw this on a regular screen. I think that if you saw this in IMAX, you probably get a little better experience. The effects and cinematography are top notch. Sit back, munch your popcorn, and forget your life for 2 hours :cool:
