No, the NEW WW.



More likely, the New New New Nw New Wonder Woman. All these characters, ESPECIALLY Superman and Batman, get varying degrees of reboot regularly. After a couple dozen Wonder Woman doing Kung Fu in a White Pantsuit, they went back to the tried and true old formula. It is ALWAYS a mistake to ditch the magic lasso.

That makes two of us.

Get 707 back together for the score.

OMG...’Megaforce’...what a piece of crap! I worked with a guy who was a Barry Bostwick groupie (why? Got me.), and who couldn’t wait until ‘Megaforce’ hit the theaters. He was depressed for a loooooooong time after he saw that flick.

Piece of crap?!?!? I'll have you know that this movie was made by one of the finest directors ever, Hal Needham! He did get an honorary Oscar, so it had to be great, right???

TCM is having Superman-Batman films on all night tonight!
The original 1940s serials with the original budget cheapness.

I love the all the pop culture references and laughed out loud when Buckaroo met Jack Burton.

You know it’s a real shame we didn’t get a sequel to “Big Trouble in Little China”. I’m cringing at the thought of the remake starring The Rock as Jack Burton.

0% on Rotten Tomatoes? Not even a lousy 1% for Bostwick’s hair??? Come on.

“I’m cringing at the thought of the remake starring The Rock as Jack Burton.”

Yeah, just like the “Footloose” remake, that is going to be one of those things I just pretend doesn’t exist.

Blade and Blade II were good. Never speak of Trinity.

How could Batman even hurt Superman? Unless his outfit is made of Green Kryptonite.

Seems like a silly premise.

I don’t go to regular theaters anymore. Peoples behavior is just too atrocious. There is a great theater in downtown Chicago where you sit in Lazyboy chair and can order cocktails and food is quite good. Great part is no one under 18 allowed and security is tight. You’ll get tossed for using cell phone or talking. 40 limit in each theater….but yes to go to evening show there will be $60.00. So it’s more of a special event thing for me .

Because they were trying to match the old Fleisher Superman’s from the 40’s. The best cartoons made hands down. Watch the WW2 ones on youtube. Amazing!
