I thought the first Avengers was good.
The only downside to Avengers 2 was that it was to compacted, the twins origins was rushed and Ultron was toned down. In the Comics Ultron is one of the greatest Villians and he can not be killed as he is a program, the way Vision just flicks him aside doesn't do justice to the Character. Marvel should have used Iron Man 3 to introduce Ultron and build the Character up, much like they are doing with Thanos and just like they did with Loki in Thor and Avengers.
Affleck was born to be Bruce Wayne IMO and he is the only reason I'm giving BVS a chance, I just have zero faith in Snyder. He Got lucky with the 300 and that was only because of Gerard Butler everything he has done since has been garbage.
Civil War looks the Goods, The Russo Brothers nailed The Winter Soldier and it looks like they got Civil War right also. With them doing the Infinity War films the MCU seems to be in good hands.
On another note Disney are laughing all the way to the Bank.
I'd like to see Disney do a remake of Schindler's List.

It's better than amazing.
Trailer looks good. Reminds me a lot of seeing Kick Ass for the first time. I thought that movie was very original and very well done.
There is a fine line between breaking the '4th wall' and being outright cheesy. It Deadpool gets it right it should be an amazing movie.
100% will watch at some stage.
And I say this with absolutely zero idea on who Deadpool is or any knowledge of the comics etc.
Just looks like a good movie.
Agree regarding the 4th wall it's tightrope that Deadpool comics walk but it's also synonyms with the Character and it's part of his charm. Through the advertising campaign for this movie Ryan Reynolds has been perfect in establishing 4th wall breaches and I only hope that carries out in the movie.
The R rating is a promising sign Fox has got this right.
I swear that Deadpool movie looks better every time I see a new trailer. Not only with Ryan Reynolds & TJ Miller but I love the shit out of Morena Baccarin. Loved that chick ever since Firefly.

I watched the new Star Wars movie on Sunday Night. It's about a thousand times better than I expected. Sure it's predictable and all, and we have seen it all before - but once again it feels like the real thing again unlike those crappy prequels we have had to endure since Return of the Jedi.
I wouldn't rate The Force Awakens anywhere near the standard of Empire Strikes back - but I reckon it has the other movies well and truly covered. The editing was absolutely brilliant and I cannot remember 136mins going so fast.
I'm very much looking forward to 2017 when the next instalment arrives. Hopefully they can add some depth to the characters like Empire did and make another classic.
From what I read the next one coming (in 2016) from the Star Wars franchise is a spin off about the rebels stealing the Death Star plans leading up to Ep 4.
On paper this sounds like a fantastic idea for a movie but it has a completely different cast and crew.
Will be interesting to see if it gets anywhere near the reaction from fans.
Yep - there are the new trilogy movies and stand alone movies that are being called "Star Wars Anthology Series" films.
The December 2016 one is Rogue One - set pre Star Wars: A New Hope, about a group of Rebel spies on a mission to steal secret plans for some super weapon called a "Death Star".
There are also untitled Han Solo and Boba Fett Anthology Series films in the works and they have essentially been described as origin stories.
