I can remember when they showed Ellie's kid watching Barney the purple dinosaur (which made me roll my eyes at light speed). And, no, I don't only think about the surf scene. I don't think it's the worst effect from a movie from that time period. That and Halle Berry's character deserved a spinoff like they originally announced.

[@hunterolaughlin]

I can remember the scene where they’re trapped in the aviary with the pteranodons and in the cloning facility where one of the raptors seemingly appears to be frozen in a glass tube of liquid only upon the kid’s mother looking closely that it’s alive leading to a standard raptor chase. At least a lot more I can remember compared to Jurassic World: Dominion.

[@tempvsfrangit3854]

Over-all, "Captain America: Civil War" was a decent movie and story, but the one line "I know that road!" draws attention to an impossible thing which leads a mind to the various other impossible or at least improbable things found in the story. How did a CCTV get at that road, which elder Stark's car just happens to crash in front of, crashed because super assassin happened to shoot at the exact right time for car to crash in front of that camera, and most of all HOW could younger Stark recognize "that road" just from a view of it on a CCTV... unless Tony had orchestrated the whole incident perhaps, much more convoluted and decades earlier than Zemo's plan.

[@codyduncan195]

Honestly, I've never understood the issue with the "Martha" scene in B v S. From start to finish, it makes perfect sense to me that Clark would ask Bruce to save his mother and that the fact that her name is also Martha would of course confuse Bruce, who hadn't considered that Superman had a family and people he cared for and who cared for him. The issue I have with the fight is the reasoning behind the fight seemed forced and tenuous. Without some kind of mind control or one needing to stop the other from doing some separate action, they wouldn't be fighting. In this case, Superman simply could have stood there and explained that his mom was kidnapped. Until Batman breaks out the Kryptonite, there was no reason for Superman to engage at all. Had Batman led off with Kryptonite, no words exchanged, the rest of the fight would have made more sense to me.

[@peterkottke2570]

Logically it makes sense why that could have ended the fight. However because as you mentioned the fight was already flawed it needed a "cool" resolution to salvage it. The fight ending because of the sheer coincidence that Superman and Batman's mothers had the same first name? That was too big a pill for many ( including myself ) to swallow.

[@codyduncan195]

@@peterkottke2570 I understand that. I guess it didn't hit me that way and I can only assume it's because I already knew the mother's shared a name. It wasn't a surprise that just happened to occur for the sake of stopping the fight.

[@obredaanps3]

@@codyduncan195 - I think the main issue comes down to focusing on the name of his mother. Batman was acting like a moron for the entire film and all that was needed to fix that was Superman saying "Martha". It lacks any substance and is an overly contrived moment which BvS already has its fill of contrived moments.

[@mrjagrown]

It's a great concept and does makes sense but it just comes off as weird because in that situation he calls his mother by her first name instead of saying save my mother. One extra line would have saved it for me "save my mother, save Martha" And in a movie about super heroes it's a weird nitpick about something being un-realistic, but people just don't talk like that typically.

[@suchanhachan]

Exactly as you said, he could have explained that his mom was kidnapped, not that Martha was kidnapped. While personally the scene didn't bother me all that much, it was still incredibly awkward and forced. What Superman would have naturally said in that situation is "Save my mother! Her name is Martha Kent. She's being held by Lex Luthor..." To start with "Save Martha!" is just weird...

[@bazman05]

And BvS was saved by the Warehouse scene which was amazing. Where it truly went off the rails was that awful version and introduction of Doomsday which was an embarrassment and the movie kept spiraling down from there.

Scream 1. A self-contained story of what might qualify as an isolated incident. Scream 2. A copycat killer turns up with motive revealed to be blood ties with the original culprit. Scream 3. We learn it was all one man's plan from the very start. So far we've got reasonably consistent story logic and the retcon isn't that awkward. True the first two gave no clue of Roman's involvement. But what did we see or hear about that precludes it? Scream 4: It all happens again just because it does. The killer is one of Sydney's relatives again. The killer's recruit is a psycho who can pull off the hapless-film-student persona again. But at least the Loomis/Prescott family feud still ties it all together. "Scream" 5: It all happens again just because it does. The killers have implausible motives. The expositional supporting characters lie about the state of movies and fandoms to set up the reveal. "Scream" 6: It all happens again because we're going through the motions at this point. Promotions promise something new and different, but that evaporates after the first-scene killers are killed and we're back to the formulaic story. (Oh, and the first non-caucasian killer of the franchise falls victim to the racial trope of ethnic characters dieing early.) Can we not think of more applicable moments for this list than the Scream 3 example?

[@whiwhimee]

Well. After seeing the entire film Alice In Wonderland, The Futterwacken dance was necessary because it is a Disney film. Adult reviewers often forget that. You forgot the intense scenes of Alice fighting with the Jabberwocky which most likely frightened and traumatized our little ones. The impossible and cartoonish dance was to give the kids something to immediately laugh at and erase the ferocious dragon Jabberwocky fight from their minds. Come on-we cannot forget the children.

[@rome8180]

Just because you want to undercut an intense scene doesn't mean you have to come up with something stupid. The original animated movie had dark scenes too.

Everyone who saw Terminator 2 agrees that there is no comparison between Linda Hamilton and Edward Furlong; he was the worst part of that movie. But that doesn't change the fact that Dark Fate was a shit movie on nearly every level - bad writing and a bad plot, bad casting and bad acting. With respect to this video, the question is: why kill John Connor? Within the story as written, there was no need. He had defeated Skynet and was obviously no longer training to save the world. But for Cameron, it was a statement that the Terminator franchise was utterly dead. For Hollyweird, it was a statement that the world didn't need no stinkin' white man to save it; in future, only women would be allowed to be heroes and save the day, especially if they were BIPOC. I'm glad I never paid to see the movie; I won't be giving them any money as long as they keep making shit like this.

I’m not sure why Jurassic Park III gets shit on so much! It’s way better than Lost in New York and it’s way better than all the new movies!!

[@MaxWeb2599]

I stopped watching Terminator movies long ago, it's to hard to see a good future and learning the moral of the story just to get a retcon for both in the next movie, EVERY TIME!

Dark Fate is the only movie I’ve rage quit and haven’t went back to

[@RpgerDeBerry-wt6zd]

I agree with most of these but, in my opinion, the whole “Martha” thing is the most overblown thing I have heard in complaining about a “disastrously bad” movie scene. BvS had its issues but I don’t believe that scene was one of them. The reasons that “Save Martha” would have a deep effect on Batman is well established in the movie. Not only was Batman’s mother named Martha, it was also the last word spoken by his father. He became Batman so he could make sure another little boy wouldn’t have to feel as helpless as he did. The effect of Superman’s words were not just that he spoke his mother’s name, but also that he was talking about SAVING her. Superman didn’t refer to her as HIS mom because she ISN’T Superman’s mom. She’s Clark Kent’s mom (secret identity). This scene is thrown in to every negative list Whatculture comes up with. I’ve seen worse scenes in other movies that didn’t ruin the whole movie, much less this one.

Instead of "can we just stop Terminator"; use "can we terminate the terminator".

I actually thought Dark Fate was a pretty solid movie 😀 even the reviews wasn't terrible.

[@Stefan_Gerards]

John Connor had no further story left. his destiny changed the second they destroyed the T-1000 and Cyberdyne, after that he was just a normal kid. the opening doesn't undermine T2 because John still destroyed Skynet, just 35 years before he was destined to. you bring back Skynet, you automatically undermine the ending of T2.

[@jimmcallister4033]

I never get why people complain about the continuity of any Terminator movie. Literally a movie about traveling through time and changing the future, therefore changing the past. They can do anything they want and it make sense. And that's because nothing about time travel makes sense lol

[@goldfishprime]

If he defeated Skynet, then how was there another Terminator walking around? The movie needed a better way to get rid of him.

[@jimmcallister4033]

@@goldfishprime some things are inevitable, Mr. Anderson. 🤣

[@rebelcaleb6984]

@@goldfishprimeI felt like the movie pretty explicitly explained that the T-800 (T1) nd T-1000 (T2) weren’t the only two units sent back in time to deal with John, and that there were multiple T-800s and T-1000s sent back to various points along the timeline as sort of a series of fail safes to ensure that John was assassinated during one of these (presumably) vulnerable moments in his past?

[@goldfishprime]

@@rebelcaleb6984 That's massive plot hole and retcon to the lore, which is why people that followed the franchise rolled their eyes. T1 was a closed loop. By trying to kill Sarah/unborn John in the past, Skynet essentially creates itself by having the terminator's chip reverse engineered and also it's enemy in the form of John Connor. T2 was breaking the loop by stopping Skynet from being created. T3 undermined this and was criticized, but at least it stayed true to the characters. Dark Fate just opened up a can of worms that it could never recover from. It was essentially a multiverse film, trying to reboot the franchise with the same aesthetics, themes but just different characters.

The fist two "Scream" flicks were good.... lost interest after the 3rd. The last one... I hated so much.... as predictable as the moon.

[@marcandreyko4251]

and Williamson had nothing to do with the writing of Scream 3. Research: it's easy and it's your friend.

[@Bassquake76]

Alien 3 is another one. Just kill off the protagonists from the previous movie right at the beginning. Way to kill the vibe man.

[@davelightsaber1621]

the martha thing never bothered me .

[@BHart777]

As far as I'm concerned, "Terminator: Dark Fate" lost me the moment they decided the cyborg Grace would treat Sarah Conner like a piece of shit! The way she acted and talked to Sarah was so disrespectful, considering all Sarah had done up to that point. She ruined any hope of me enjoying the film!

Die Another Day imploded the moment it was back to our regularly scheduled Brosnan programming when he walked into the hotel after being tortured. No physical consequences. Apparently he doesn’t need to see a doctor and whatever injuries or illnesses he would have had from being locked up in prison for that long suddenly disappeared and it’s nothing that a shower, shave and haircut can’t fix. This is the epitome of James Bond for 13 year old boys. He didn’t even need to CGI water ski. They lost me at that point. Just when I thought things might get interesting. They tried to do a thing with M but that devolved once he said he’d rather stay in prison than see some guy we haven’t established was that bad be released. Sure, he blew something up, but Bond deals with bigger criminals than that. He’s not rotting in prison for any other baddie. Why that guy? And the “gene therapy” thing was bordering on racist.
