Saves me the trouble of watching the movie...

Who am I kidding, I'll still go watch it.

Struggling to resist looking at End Game spoilers.

These next 2 days are going to be long avoiding all the spoilers and premiere impressions on the Internet.

I just landed tickets to a Thursday showing of endgame! It was all sold out and I thought I was going to have to wait a week but now I get to go earlier than expected!

This actually looks pretty good. I know next to nothing about the character because he always seemed cheesy to me. I hear the Moore run on the comics is great though.

Here you go!

https://readcomiconline.to/Comic/Swamp-Thing-1982

The ones you particularly want are #20 to #27. I barely read comic books but that's considered one of the best runs ever, to my knowledge.

Why recreate classic cheese, the 1982 Swamp Thing movie was brilliantly stinky

Avengers Endgame gets a 96% score from RT (265 reviews), which is just shy of Black Panther's 97% for best reviewed Marvel movie

I finally got around to watching Batman vs Superman, Suicide Squad, and Justice League.


I didnt think the movies were particularly good but I was much more impressed than I thought I'd be with Ben Affleck and his performance.


Too bad he's done.


Also, for some reason it took me four tries to spell impressed right, which is really pathetic.

More curious to see if they were as bad as everyone said. Occasionally I have enjoyed reputedly-terrible movies (Waterworld)


But these.....

They also manage to be bad in totally different ways.

BvS is a mess that is fundamentally flawed as a basic story and film.

Suicide Squad is garish and cartoony and just kind of dumb.

JL is just boring.

In different ways, but I felt one of the fundamental problems with all of them is that there is no emotional payoff - there's no buildup so there's not reason to be invested in it.


Feels like they tried to catch up to the MCU but there were a whole lot more movies in the MCU and they could have had a lot more too (Black Widow, etc).
