Two of those were rare British daikaiju movies, IIRC. And Gwangi was Harryhausen's last movie, again IIRC.

Another movie I was out of sync with.  I started watching it twice, but could never make it through.  I thought it was about a guy that played a superhero.  Did it turn out he was an actual superhero?
I haven't actually seen it myself; I understand it had an ambiguous ending in that regard.

No he just thinks he is.

Apparently for a superhero movie to win a Oscar it has to be overly dramatic and boring

At least that was a clever ending, because he was a failure at everything else he did, and not in a fun way like the original Clark Kent being romantic clutz in the presence of Lois Lane.

What a horrible piece of shit.

About some brat doing nothing, but achieving everything for doing ... nothing? Fuck this this contrived crap. And the 77 robot is cute and all, but a death machine? The story is both ridiculous and makes no fucking sense. It's just one hop-scotch of a mess from one scene to the next.

Captain Marvel trailer incoming.
Captain Marvel is a woman?  Yikes.  Still the trailer has got me pumped.

You didn't know that already? Yeah, similar to what the MCU did with Antman, this is second generation character bearing the title. The original was a man, but this woman takes his place.

I understand DC sued Marvel, saying Captain Marvel was a rip off of Superman, so Marvel made him a woman.

That's got to hurt! ;-)

I wasn't raised on this, so I am OK with a reboot with a girl playing the part.  We are quite used to women in the military now.

Pfft. How many characters do Marvel and DC have that are copies of each other? Deathstroke, Deadpool. Green Arrow, Hawk Eye. This isn't the first time this happened. Ironically, Captain Marvel was originally a DC comic character, but they went without using them for so long that they lost ownership of the name, allowing Marvel to take it.

How about Dead Eye and Greek Hawk? ;-)
