I guess of all the "newspaper staff investigating Catholic Church molestation claims" films I've seen, Spotlight had the best costumes?

Re: CDG Nominations why is ex machina fantasy here and contemporary with the art directors?

I like it better than the first, not quite as good as the second, a good bit better than the third. It is quite grim, definitely not a "fun" movie.

Knowing that Part 3 and Part 4 were essentially one film, yeah, it wiped away any and all goodwill and interest from me. Looking at the box office drops from 2 to 3 to 4, I'm guessing I'm not alone.

Re: CDG Nominations Mockingjay Part 1 is like The Phantom Menace of the Hunger Games franchise in that it ditches the action of earlier installments for a fascinating more dialogue driven political movie. I think it accomplishes what it sets out to do, and I think it is undervalued.

Re: CDG Nominations Mockingjay 1 was bad. Mockingjay 2 strove toward redemption and mostly succeeded (though Catching Fire is still the best).

Re: CDG Nominations zwackerm wrote: I simply meant people don't like when franchises change from their initial formula. That's probably fair. A big reason I loved the first two films so much was the Battle Royale storyline, though the Capitol as the final battlefield hooked me somewhat when reading the third book.
