Last Movie You Watched

Terminator Dark Fate
Went in with a lot of the negative comments in my head ... and ... to my pleasant surprise ... enjoyed it immensely. It's bombing at the box office but it's easily the best Terminator since T2 ... I'll give it a 3/5 on the Huggs scale. And if this is it for Terminator films (well in the immediate future it would seem) then for me personally at least it went out on a high.

What took me by surprise was for the first time since the T2 I found the enemy Terminator actually terrifying to watch - I wasn't convinced of Gabby Luna's casting at first but after 10 mins of watching this he convinced me otherwise.

Spoiler

That harsh beginning though ... wow ... I thought the beginning of A Quiet Place was shocking but this one took me by surprised. Also I'm usually the first to cringe at anything woke in modern movies but found none of it in this one. That said as much as I like Mckenzie she's nowhere near as strong as Sarah Connor is.

Very true, especially with the polar bear bit.

Speaking of, I also love when all the old men townfolk stand around having a full-on TV episode ending-chuckle at that guy's expense moments after having graphically shotgunned his boss to death

And they totally just waited for Dalton to do all of the work before they finally did anything.

In fairness, his reputation precedes him wherever he goes.

Yeah, I never knew bouncers had rep before this.

The movie really needed more Sam Elliott, though, come to think of it.

He was born for that role, wasn't he ? I honestly prefer him to TDK's interpretation.

"Where does he get those wonderful toys?"

[HuDaFuK]

Same.

It's hard to argue Ledger's wasn't the finer acting performance, but I far prefer Jack's take. He's such a joy to watch.

[The Old One]

Controversially I actually think apart from Jared Leto's Joker of course, it's not the strongest live-action Joker, absolutely no subtlety and the Joker and Batman fighting over a love interest completely misses the point. The film itself is the weakest of the "good" Batman films, perhaps apart from the last Christopher Nolan Batman.

Jack is always good, even in garbage like The Terror.

Absolutely! Totally agree! And Jack aces the laugh!

Jack is the Golden Age gangster Joker. He even puts on flesh colored makeup like in the character's first appearance.

Cesar is the mostly harmless but still sinister Silver Age Joker.

Heath is somewhere in between Bronze Age Laughing Fish Joker and modern psycho Joker.

Jared is trying for Morrison's Joker but not landing it.

Jouaquin is society's Joker.
