The movie is 99% awful, but I did laugh at the Batman and Robin speed dating scene.

I thought the speed dating scene was a little bit amusing until Superman showed up. Justin Long is always great.

I remember when this came out and thinking it was going to be great. What an insane cast. Then I saw the reviews and never thought about it again.

There was definitely some potential with the basketball scene and Terrence Howard was funny. Fell flat though - maybe they tried to force the humor too much? I think it wouldā€™ve worked better without the white team entering the locker room and if they did the game action in regular speed. I do like that Jared Dudley, Corey Brewer, and Larry Sanders were in it.

Is there a documentary about the making of movie 43? I would watch that. Even an oral history.

This one has Emma Stone and Kieran Culkin. Succession is back baby!

Movie 43 is also an obnoxious entity if you play Cinenerdle Battle. I havenā€™t played it for a minute, but itā€™s fun. Basic concept is that youā€™re thunderdoming with someone to name movies that have a link in common with the last one, subject to limitations. When your opponent starts mashing Movie 43, theyā€™re stumped. But because of the large high-profile cast, it too often works and bails them out.

Die Hard 3 is easily the best sequel. It tries something new so it isnt just a rehash of 1 like 2 is, and it has pre-cognitive issues Willis, which you can see shining through in 4 and 5.

Plus Sam Jackson is easily the best of the seconds

I like part three a lot too, but I have a soft spot for part two despite the plot holes.

Fondness for the first 4. 3 has Sam. 3 has a sleight of hand to steal a thing. 3 has a gruber and truly echoes the OG.

All have at least decent villians.

4 goes extra preposterous on the physics with highway bridge/jet/semi. Of course, nothing can ever top the fuel trail fire.

and theyā€™re calling it ā€œcinenerdle battleā€? did kevin bacon sue?

6348

Well the site is Cinenerdle, the battle function is the only one Iā€™ve learned. Thereā€™s other puzzles and stuff I think. Itā€™s kinda different than what I understand the Kevin Bacon game to be, though I havenā€™t actually attempted that.
