That's actually a pretty good sumary of what's wrong with the brains of some people in this site. And not for the reasons some will believe (but for the ones others will see).

* Yeah, I know this came out in 2012. Deal with it.

There's are still lots of movies I want to watch (MU, Much Ado, This Is the End...).
I thought you liked Iron Man 3 more than The Avengers....so you liked Side Effects more than both of them? :think: :shock:

Ain't nothing wrong with dat.

Though that's rather surprising, considering how much didich seemed to have liked The Avengers.

No, no, no. Technically, I said I consider Iron Man Three to be a better movie than Marvel's The Avengers, and I maintain it, in the sense that I consider Iron Man 3 to have a braver (though not necessarily better) script, more compelling performances (specially in the case of RDJ, I thought he was plain-out great; even if he 'plays himself' like some here like to repeat, he played versions of himself [as in, depressed RDJ, unconfident RDJ, funny RDJ, charming RDJ, serious RDJ, weird RDJ] much, much better than 80% of actors this year playing 'their characters') and, if you get every aspect individually, a stronger direction. That being said, I like Marvel's The Avengers [much] more than both for reasons I've explained many times, if you need a review of mine I'll provide a link (in fact, I need a rewatch of Three because, personally, I got some 'mixed' feelings I want to reanalyse).

As for Side Effects... Well yeah, I liked it quite a lot. Soderbergh is not exactly a favored filmmaker of mine but, like in my very beloved Ocean's Eleven, I believe he can handle a sharp script (the strongest aspect of the movie, imo).

Though it's important to note that, despite the fact I put some movies above others, in terms of rating there's no much separation. For example, 4, 5, 6 and 7 all circle around a 7,5 at the moment, with Side and Pacific Rim leaning towards the 8 and Star Trek being static (and IM3, as I said, frozen until I rewatch it, though it'll either go up or down, I doubt it'll remain in it's rating).

Don't worry guys, I still love The Avengers. I haven't hurt my head or anything. :lol: :lol: :P

I hope you realize how much joy you're bringing me by showing me you're so butthurt over the stupidest thing. :lol: Just goes to show you that Crazy Eight can't handle anyone else's opinions without shoving in his own.
Yeah most people are taken a bit a back when people say things equivalent to "In my opinion gravity isn't a real thing" or "dinosaurs didn't exist". You know, things like that.

This year has been disappointing.
Well, only three films exceeded my expectations so far this year: The Place Beyond the Pines, Star Trek Into Darkness, and Oblivion. Everything else either disappointed me (Iron Man Three and Pacific Rim) or turned out just as I expected it to. So in that sense, I suppose it has been disappointing. I still need to see a few others though such as Mud, Gatsby, Side Effects, and Warm Bodies.

On the contrary, this summer feels pretty good in my book.

Elysium could easily change my perspective though.
