| Topic | Don't tell me what I can't do: a 10-year LOST retrospective/character ranking |
| TomNook 03/05/21 6:16:16 PM #367 | The problem with the "Desmond > Locke" state of mind is that Locke was good when the show was good and mattered. Desmond was too, but his only real highlight was the Season 2 finale. By the time you get to the shitshow of seasons 4, 5, and 6, who really cares at that point. That'd be like saying Theon Greyjoy or Bran Stark are better than Tyrion Lannister or Jaime Lannister in Game of Thrones, because of Theon or Bran's development in later seasons that nobody cares about, while completely disregarding the Tyrion or Jaime quality from the early seasons that people loved just because they became a nonentity in the lamer late seasons. That said, Desmond is still easily a Top 3 Lost character, but that's just how bad most of the characters are, even when the show was great. --- Bells, bells, bells! |

I have a coworker who says he watched season one, felt the sum of its parts was perfect, and decided never to watch another episode.I envy him. I should have stopped after season 3.

Supporting page has a couple memorable ones like Danielle, Tom, Keamy, Arzt, and Ethan. But it's nobodies for the most part. --- Bells, bells, bells! |

I had a black and white 13 inch TV in my room for gaming with dials and knobs on it lolThere was one of these in my house too, but nobody used it as a primary TV. If I recall, it didn't have an actual cable hookup, but rather an antenna. People would use it if they wanted to watch TV somewhere weird, or if the other 2 TVs were taken. But because of antenna, it only had a couple channels. --- Bells, bells, bells! |

He isnt a character you can do the whole quips and flirty romance thing with - and when Whedon tried it fucking sucked.I think the problem with a character like this, whether Norton or Ruffalo, is that when making it for an audience that is coming to see superhero films, you really aren't going quite capture the kind of internal struggle that things like Taxi Driver and other similar films do. Even something like Joker doesn't nail it down as much as a fully dedicated drama, because it knows that the people coming to see it are coming for superhero stuff. --- Bells, bells, bells! |
| Topic | Board 8 Ranks: The Marvel Cinematic Universe (PHASE 1) |
| TomNook 02/02/21 7:32:28 PM #91 | Hmm, having only 1 movie with no Top 10...now that is a clue to analyze. Iron Man 2 and Thor 2 seem like the obvious ones. It mostly comes down to how much someone might like Tony Stark or Thor to override the rest of the movie and put it in their top 10. I could see it going either way. They are probably the next 2 out anyway? Ant-Man 2...I feel like nobody would rank it low enough for it to be next, but it also doesn't seem like something that would really make top 10s? I bet it borders close enough to sneak in to a couple. Captain Marvel has Brie Larson, so you know someone will put it in their Top 10 for that reason. Age of Ultron is kind of the black sheep of the "Avengers" movies it seems, but I feel like an "Avengers" movie wouldn't go out this soon. Does someone have this in a Top 10? Inviso posted...

| TomNook 02/01/21 8:07:29 PM #16 | The top 10 is nearly half the list. With 32 participants, I could see almost every movie scoring at least one top 10. The bottom 4 rated ones on imdb are Incredible Hulk, Thor 2, Captain America 1, and Captain Marvel. Seems logical it would be one of those. --- Bells, bells, bells! |
