At least that's something? I watched part of one of the Resident Evil films and was intrigued by the destruction of Las Vegas. So I bought the series but havent watched it yet. But Milla is an old favourite dating back to the Blue Lagoon days (and probably her first nudity). So yes, I agree. Bet on skin.
Brandon Posted January 17, 2017 Report Posted January 17, 2017 The Resident Evil movies are fun turn your brain off action flicks. Underworld should of stopped after the first one.... FrostyWinnipeg 1
Taynted_Fayth Posted January 19, 2017 Author Report Posted January 19, 2017 cant say im a fan of the direction these trailer are going
The Unknown Poster Posted January 19, 2017 Report Posted January 19, 2017 Anyone else interested in The Founder, opening this weekend. Story of McDonalds. Looks really good.
Brandon Posted January 19, 2017 Report Posted January 19, 2017 I can't post the links but new trailers for Logan , Power Rangers, Snatched and CHIPS are out... all look decent. The Snatched Red Band trailer has a few really funny parts for the dirty minded individuals..
Logan007 Posted January 19, 2017 Report Posted January 19, 2017 Wow, Logan looks crazy. I can't wait.

Or at least give the kid different powers. It kind of defeats the whole premise of the mutant gene is hereditary, but the powers are never duplicate Atomic 1

Most mutant kids do have some inherent abilities of the parents. Cable, Legion, Franklin Richards, Rachel Summers, Daken (Wolverine's son), Polaris (Magneto's daughter), all have similar abilities to their parents. I'm not sure where you're getting that the powers are never duplicated. Also, this isn't Logan's kid. X-23 is a clone of Logan, hence why her powers are the exact same, except she has 2 claws instead of 3. Not sure if they'll follow the comic book story where she has the third claw in her foot.

I dont consider the fantastic four mutants (same with spiderman) their abilities were the result of cosmic radiation which gave them their powers, not genes, so i guess Reed and Susan had cosmic sperm/eggs. there are some instances i suppose that have some parental traits - nightcrawler for example is the son of Azazel (red devil guy who can teleport in xmen first class) and mystique so he ended up a blue deviled teleporter, but those are very few exemptions to the rules. in anycase, I didnt factor in another weapon X but in the end it still doesnt thrill me to see a kid wolverine, especially in an "R" rated movie

It doesn't always happen, but most of the times it does. You can read about it here http://marvel.wikia.com/wiki/Mutant_Biology Cable: Telepathy and telekinesis like his mom Jean (technically her clone Madelyne). His powers are just reduced because of the techno organic virus he has. Legion: Son of Professor X. One of his powers is telepathy like his dad. Rachel Summers: Has Telepathy and telekinesis just like her mom Jean. Can also wield the Phoenix Force like Jean did\does. Daken: Son of Wolverine and has duplicate powers. Polaris: Daughter of Magneto and has duplicate powers. Nightcrawler (as you pointed out): Son of Azazel, similar demonic appearance and ability to teleport. Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver: Thought to be Magneto's kids, but are not (mind you, this was a retcon...probably because of the MCU). Both Inhumans now. /nerdness off Edited January 20, 2017 by Logan007 JCon 1

Thats why even step brothers like cain marko (juggernaut), friends (james rhodes-war machine) spider-gwen, black cat, amadeus cho, etc. if you spend any significant time around a super hero/villain, or are related to one you will at some point have a super power. Mutants are an easy way to explain that away (as well as inhuman-terrigen mist exposure) but really its just hard to tell a story about a super human whose aliases enemies, frenemies, antagonists are human.

FrostyWinnipeg Posted January 21, 2017 Report Posted January 21, 2017 Just saw Arrival, majorly disappointed. Starts out sci-fi/drama ends up art house. Makes the ending of Interstellar look half-decent.

Mark F Posted January 21, 2017 Report Posted January 21, 2017 There are some really good Asian movies, "Whispering corridors".... disturbing Korean suicide pact/ghost movie.... on Netflix "The Assassin" is very good,

Logan007 Posted January 21, 2017 Report Posted January 21, 2017 I liked Arrival. Enjoyed the cast and the ending. I enjoyed it more then Interstellar.
Taynted_Fayth Posted January 22, 2017 Author Report Posted January 22, 2017 I definitely liked Arrival more than Interstellar. The ending of Interstellar just went kaflooey, Ruined the whole thing

The Unknown Poster Posted January 23, 2017 Report Posted January 23, 2017 That was my immediate thought. The twist could be, just as Kylo/Snoke are not Sith, that Rey never becomes a Jedi..perhaps Luke realizes that as long as Jedi exist, Sith will come back. No Jedi, no Sith. Or something. Or, its just because the plot of the film is all about trying to kill Luke and eliminate "the last Jedi". Ends with Snoke declaring the last jedi is now gone. Rey replies, "no she isnt..." and IX is the rise of the new jedi.
