Action that never stops, decent commie themes, very original story, and amazing effects. I guess they didn’t need to make the main protagonist a white dude, otherwise it’s the one film I can watch again and again.

Am I allowed to post links pirate sites or is that banned??

    Dredd and Fury Road were like a brief incursion from another universe where blockbuster movies never got replaced by cape slop. 80s style action but with 2010s writing and special effects chefs-kiss

      Avatar as well. The whole second half of Avatar 2 made me realize CGI could be good if put to better use. Cameron knows how to keep shit grounded and tell a good visual narrative even with blue giants slaughtering yanks

        Staying grounded is the important part for good CG. Even though it’s capeshit, I always compare Black Panther in Civil War vs the Black Panther movie. Civil War Black Panther looks great because there’s a lot of actual actors and physicality to the reference shots. Fast forward to the final fight in the Black Panther movie and it’s a floaty, disconnected wholly CG mess.
