I wasn't being serious, that is why I posted the clip of the awful acting from the movie. Also the part where Eddie Redmayne for some reason is shirtless but wearing mascara, it's how I always pictured alien dictators would dress.

Well, I watched the trailer for this again the other day with my wife this time and I might try to lean more toward the positive because I want to put some faith in Luc Besson. He's a talented guy. We're watching his La Femme Nikita right now. I had seen it a long time ago and remembered liking it. It's still very good. Some dated music, but not too unexpected since it was 1990. Haven't finished it yet, but so far it holds up very well in a very charming sort of way.

From the trailers for this, though, it looks like he may have gotten a little too carried away with the digital effects and visuals, but let's hope not. That's no doubt what they had to do to make it live up to the comic. My wife pointed out that the girl in this played the Enchantress in Suicide Squad. I never would have realized that: Cara Delevingne

Lockdown was garbage, and it seems this will follow suit. Ah well.

Lockout is fun, mostly due to Guy Pearce and other good character actors.

This looks questionable, yes, but still looks way better than Justice League and most other lame-as-f#ck comicbook movies.

I suppose the premise is a pretty shameless rip-off, but I like Lockout and didn't particularly care for Escape From New York, probably more due to it being a bit dated.

I enjoyed both Escape From NY and Lockout, and IMO John Carpenter made perhaps the best horror/sci-fi movie ever (The Thing) and one of the best fantasy/comedy movies ever (Big Trouble in Little China).

As the article mentions in passing, the court case sets an interesting precedent for how movie IP at least is dealt with in France.

This movie is ****ed. Its the most expensive french film ever made, and its going to utterly flop.

Im going to see it anyway, because the visuals look nice and I want to support big sci-fi, but this film is going to get screwed in the box office. I dont think even china will save it.
