    Yes, Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm was a great casting choice and she nailed it. Their dynamic also reminds me a lot of my wife and I... Reed's struggles between his logic and emotions was something that surprised me in the way I could identify with him. He loves his family first and foremost...

    F4 was solid. My favorite MCU film since GotG Vol. 3. This is what happens when you inject heart and emotion into your movies, Marvel!

    I’ve seen enough drought over the past decade… I’ll never complain about rain again.

    Exactly my thought. I remember wishing Downtown Ames was closer to campus, but not smooshed together like Iowa City is with the U of I. KU’s campus was the perfect distance from Mass St.

    I really appreciated Lawrence when I first went there, but it was summer so it was a lot quieter than it would normally be. But even then, the vibe seemed really chill. Iowa City isn’t as bad as people here say it is. Very similar to Lawrence. Gets a lot of undeserved hate. But I’m probably biased.

    That's awesome, doesn't really look like it dropped off during the week, breaking $100mil in... what, 9 days? That's fantastic considering it opened at $45mil last weekend.

    A moderate rating this early? It’s going to get there. It’ll probably be based on what the primary threat is. If a widespread tornado outbreak is expected, we might see High risk as far down as KC.

    Yeah, they had a brief prologue voice-over that explained that music can at times attract evil spirits, which leads directly into the first scene showing Sammie after the events from the previous night dragging himself back to his dad’s church.

    As commented earlier, machine learning has improved things like forecasting the conditions that form severe weather outbreaks further into the future. The frequency of these events is going to be a hotter topic to discuss, but I think at least the core of it is partially due to improved models.

    Saw a theory online about Sammie that ... I either missed in the context of the story, or they just didn't explain well enough in the film. If there was a little more exposition on this, I feel like it would have made the movie infinitely better by giving Sammie's part in the tale more weight:

    I’m in the minority, I appreciated the film but I was disappointed by it. I felt like every time the film got going it would step on its own toes and kill the momentum. And this film had plenty of moments that were outstanding (including one sequence that I won’t spoil here… iykyk) The trailers...

    From what we've seen of Thunderbolts so far, and then this, I'm really hoping for a return to form for the MCU... the F4 especially need a proper movie.

    He is very Jack Blacky in this movie and even gets several moments to flaunt his vocal cords. You might enjoy it on that merit. I honestly thought this movie would bomb because Jack Black as Steve was a total mismatch. But his enthusiasm is infectious and he and Momoa stole the show for the...

    Surprised this thread hasn’t been resurrected yet? This was a solid movie for Minecraft fans. Even for myself, who hasn’t played the game for several years. I was worried by the trailers because it didn’t seem to get the tone of Minecraft right, but it’s obvious the movie was made by people who...
