Title: Re: TDMMC Comic Book Movie Madness: Non-Marvel Group 2 Post by: Spider-Dan on April 02, 2020, 01:56:57 am This grouping is pretty meh, in my eyes; Wonder Woman seems high and 300 seems low. I think Wonder Woman and 300 are the best of this bunch, but I'm not sure if either one will get another vote from me.
Title: Re: TDMMC Comic Book Movie Madness: Non-Marvel Group 2 Post by: Tenshot13 on April 02, 2020, 08:13:42 am I went with 300 and Kick Ass, but Wonderwoman was close. I think WW is the way to do a female empowered movie where Captain Marvel was how you pander one.
Title: Re: TDMMC Comic Book Movie Madness: Non-Marvel Group 2 Post by: Brian Fein on April 02, 2020, 11:01:56 am I thought Wonder Woman was not terrible as far as DC movies go.
Not terribly excited about the others, but Kick Ass is probably the only one of this group I'd watch again. Title: Re: TDMMC Comic Book Movie Madness: Non-Marvel Group 2 Post by: CF DolFan on April 02, 2020, 11:52:28 am I went Wonder Woman as I thought that was the best movie and Kick Ass since it was probably the most entertaining to me.
Title: Re: TDMMC Comic Book Movie Madness: Non-Marvel Group 2 Post by: Tenshot13 on April 02, 2020, 11:59:03 am I'm surprised 300 isn't leading, It was insanely popular. I've probably seen 300 at least a half dozen times.
Title: Re: TDMMC Comic Book Movie Madness: Non-Marvel Group 2 Post by: CF DolFan on April 02, 2020, 12:03:22 pm I'm surprised 300 isn't leading, It was insanely popular. I've probably seen 300 at least a half dozen times. I've never seen the whole thing. For whatever reason ... it just doesn't appeal to me. Title: Re: TDMMC Comic Book Movie Madness: Non-Marvel Group 2 Post by: Dave Gray on April 02, 2020, 12:36:29 pm I chose 300 and Kick-Ass, both because they were different. The visual style of 300 still is great, to me.
I really liked Wonder Woman and it'd be a shame for it to get knocked out early, but I think the 3rd act was pretty weak. Kick-Ass was fun, which a lot of those movies weren't at the time. Tough round. Title: Re: TDMMC Comic Book Movie Madness: Non-Marvel Group 2 Post by: Spider-Dan on April 05, 2020, 03:47:03 am Voting has ended! Wonder Woman and 300 advance to the next round, where they will face Sin City and Batman Begins.
