At the Movies!

Wonder woman is going to be much MUCH better than Batman V Superman. You can count on it.

I dunno, I'm really not buying into any of these DC trailers until they prove me wrong at this point. I will say that WW certainly looks more interesting than anything in DC's latest binder, but I feel like that's more due to her having an intrinsically far more interesting backstory than Supes or Batman. Not to mention that the Justice League trailer looks like complete ass.

I didn't hate Sausage Party, went to see it with my dad and we had a good time. I'm not a huge Seth Rogan fan either (The Interview was 100% utter shit imo) but the movie itself had a few great moments mixed in with some terrible ones, and all in all, I'm glad I saw it. Not like I'll ever watch it again, but there are far worse "adult-animation" comedy flicks out there.

I just watched Kubo and the Two Strings earlier tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. The animation was fantastic and I'm really glad that I finally managed to see a Laika film on the big screen. The story itself was actually really well developed and had a lot of meta-commentary on stories and movie cliches in general. It doesn't beat you over the head with them, but it's incredibly well crafted and the entire thing was just a joy to watch unfold. My only problems are that a few elements are reaaaaly predictable, which wasn't horrifying or anything, just a little off-putting since the rest of the story has a really neatly carved narrative path, and that in a few scenes the animation was a lot less detailed than in the rest of the film. Just a couple of times near the beginning when an old lady is talking, you can tell that they sort of rushed her rig and the animation has a few less frames than desirable. Outside of those nitpicks, it was a truly fantastic film and I can't reccomend it highly enough.
