I'm not down on the movie or the character. Do I think he is as interesting as the biggest named Marvel characters? No. He is definitely more interesting to me than Ant Man although I don't consider Ant Man a big character. His movie did well, but he's still a minor character. I also have no issue with people liking a movie because it appeals to their culture or gender. I didn't leave the theater thinking about how entertaining or good the movie was like I did the first Avengers and as I assume I will Infinity War. It has nothing to do with race or gender for me as I don't care if I identity with anyone in a movie. I get that people do but it's never been my thing especially for a comic book movie. As I said my main issue is that I don't like being called a racist because I didn't think it was God's gift to movies. Just my opinion.

You sound racist.

Saw Infinity War, going to see it again in 3D probably next weekend.  So far I would give it a 9/10. The only "critique" I would have is it seemed "choppy" story line wise at times but that is going to happen when you have like 20+ super heroes doing different things to at different planets/places to try to stop Thanos.

 

I will say that it is the first Marvel movie (ok, Thor:Ragnorok did too) that has a really Bad Ass villian that actually kicks the crap out of people.

 

It really is "dark" and you should really watch taking young kids to it, 2 different younger kids in my theater were crying pretty bad at the end of the movie.

Black Panther - 8.5/10

I thought it was really, really good.  They elongated the battle scene at the end, which was my only gripe, but it was an excellent movie.

Just watched Coco (watching it for 2nd time with daughter)... holy shit.  I'm not Mescan, but it still stabs the feels hard. Very well done.  The attention to detail is mind bottling.  One scene in particular... They look at a footprint.  

"It's a child's!"

"Size 7!"

"And a half!"

"Pronated!"

... Then the very next scene, Miguel (the child in reference) the child is subtly walking... pronated.  

 

9/10

Critics are dumb. They did a good job of making a new movie for their core audience.

Ben Affleck plays a believable autistic person.  Really like Jon Bernthal in the role of Ben's brother.

I actually thought The Accountant was his best movie/role in a long time. That is probably due to the fact that being autistic is typically someone who lacks or can't show emotions (not always)...and he (lately) has sucked as an actor showing anything of depth. I mean his Batman is terrible.

Good Will Hunting may have been his last good role before The Accountant.

He was barely even in Good Will Hunting. Probably would’ve ruined the movie if it was any more.

I enjoyed Argo a lot and The Town. But other than that, not many roles of his are any good. He is a pretty terrific writer/producer.

Argo and the town are great and he was great in them.

I remember Phantoms. And that's all I'll say about that other than: Example Infinity of The Book Was Better.

I don't either TBH. He's by no means the worst.
