The most avid fans of 3D are children from what I've seen. So as the tech gets less intrusive and more immersive, they will probably prefer 3D in their films as they grow up. Since I've watched Avatar on Blu-ray, I wish I'd never bothered with 3D at all. It's so much clearer and brighter with more freedom to focus on what you want.Personally I'll avoid 3D movies for the ...

jasonefmonk commented on Mackwahl's article Trailer: The Master.
@VioletEyedDragon: Was I not clear enough? I mean to say that it shouldn't matter if this film blatantly trashes and misrepresents Scientology, or sublimely informs a larger religious truth. It's a god damned movie and shouldn't be held accountable to someone offended by it's subject matter. If it is not to your tastes, then move along.

Just re-watched The Incredible Hulk, and it has the fantastic actor who play Omar in The Wire for about five seconds.The Wire is one of the greatest dramas ever put to film. A true masterpiece.

jasonefmonk commented on Mackwahl's article Trailer: The Master.
@VioletEyedDragon, @Suedehead, @gangly, @Vincemaster:I really have to agree with the sentiment to not judge this film's influences until you've seen it, and have a decent understanding of what Scientology is. However, there is no real difference between Scientology or most other religions. They are akin to a cult and – like every other topic under the sun – should never be reserved from free speech, humour, or criticism.No one has ...

@TheFaithfullyDeparted: (Sorry for the late reply! I must have missed the alert in my inbox.)I really enjoyed all the Black Widow stuff throughout, but I will agree that Loki vs. Hulk was shallow. I didn't mind so much because we've seen him fight, and that's just not his strong suit. He's a manipulator and the army he brought to earth was huge threat even with him out of commission.

Both trailers are identical. And not that good. I'm still very interested but this isn't what I'd like to see.

jasonefmonk commented on staceywi's article What to Watch: Monday.
I watched very closely through the sixth season, a high point being the bus crash at the end of season four. I haven't kept up with this last one, but since it's the series finale I won't be able to resist seeing it through.I always loved the philosophical episodes and the way they challenged their characters, I hope the show gets watched for years to come.

Casino Royale was better than Quantum of Solace. However Quantum had the air, land, and sea action sensibilities of the earlier movies; wilder action start to finish. Not always a good thing – I do hope they return to grounded Bond – but it's wasn't a bad popcorn movie.

jasonefmonk commented on MatthewMarko's staff review Jiro Dreams of Sushi.
I've heard quite a few great things about this movie, and really wish I had a way to see it. I'll probably need to make a sushi trip before, during, and after the movie.

I hope as they further explore SHIELD, they finally get deeper into Fury's backstory and motivations.

@Ghost_of_GhostDad said:@jasonefmonk: In the lab you see the staff pulsate so I assume it is giving off negative vibes. Which goes along with Loki's willingness to be captured.Actually I believe that the glow of the staff was to indicate it gave off a traceable signal. It's why Loki allowed himself to be imprisoned, so he could be the tracking device to lead his men to the enemy base. They show ...

@Suedehead: With that six-picture deal, one of the inevitable Hulk cameo's should be in Thor 2. The Hulk IN SPAAAAAACE.

@Ghost_of_GhostDad: Interesting, I don't remember the staff making contact with Banner though. I thought it was being pissed at SHIELD which Natasha Romanoff is a high ranking member of, and the pain of getting knocked around. Your description of his degrees of control sounds closer to how The Incredible Hulk handled it. Banner jumping from the plane and hoping to aim his beast because he couldn't control it.

@ashogo: I think that the implication of "That's my secret, I'm always angry." is that he may have been in control when attacking Black Widow. Otherwise bringing him to rage "against his will" might cloud Hulk's judgement more than a willful transformation.

Haha, oh wow @litrock works for the site and wrote the Screened review, I had no idea. Just read it; despite the differences in opinion, I enjoyed the read. Congrats on the sweet gig.

@Ghost_of_GhostDad said:I can't believe Shwarma was revealed to be the the next villain after the credits. Shwarma is great but I am more of a Gyro guy.Haha, that moment hit me good. I lived in Ottawa for two-years until just this month, and with such a big Lebanese population shawarma was always on my menu.

@litrock said:@jasonefmonk: Oof, I REALLY hope that Marvel movies don't go trying to emulate empty popcorn trash like Cloverfield. It's a fun roller coaster ride, but it's a totally empty experience. If The Avengers proved anything, it's that characters have to come first.Oh come on. Cloverfield spent the first twenty minutes building a simple little set of relationships that had impact on the events of the rest of the film. ...

People can be dicks on their birthday, so if you're surrounded by dicks, maybe it's everyone's birthday! (Or just yours).
