Epilogue is the worst thing to happen to mankind. And I'm including, like, all the wars and stuff.

... Did Linkara cover that one?

the comics where Barbara quit being Batgirl after she was beaten into a miscarriage.

His choice to be Batman had more punch when he was a completely normal guy met with the same dillema instead of the DNA garbage that muddies the message for no other reason than to give Old Bruce another ass-kiss before the show is over. It's a boring episode whose entire concept is repeating things already known and spark Squawkbox arguments.

But he still chose to be batman. Not only did he chose to be batman, he did it better.

I have to agree.. Part of the problem with Epilogue is it takes away from "Terry CHOSE to be batman" and changed it a bit to "Terry was designed to be batman."

Do you mean the DCAU continuity comics or Future's End?

can we all at least agree it's a better ending for Batman Beyond than the comics?

There was no evidence of it to support it in the show, and generally using someone to MAKE a batman is a jerkish thing to do.

why does it matter?

I think the problem with Epilogue was making Terry effectivly Batman's son.

what's your problem with it?

Epilogue give a great end to Batman Beyond and even has a Mask of the Phantasm character

I don't post in the Shoutbox often, but when I do, it's to confirm "Epilogue" is garbage.

even "Epilogue" ? (braces for that argument again)

Its a really great show.

Yeah, miles is only used when accuracy doesn't actually matter, or we're dealing with americans.

We even use "miles" in similar contexts in German even though we use kilometers for actual measurements.

Makes sense, really. Colloquialisms exist in their own weird little universe where terminology can persist after it's no longer relevant otherwise.

We also measure car milage in kilometres but still call it milage.

No. We still say miles. Kilometers is only really used for actual specific distances whereas miles being used in a common phrase is still miles.

People from outside the U.S.: as we are all English-proficient here, do you ever use the phrase "I saw it coming from miles away.", or do you say "kilometers" instead?

Wow, that was supposed to :shout" hours ago...

Indeed. Especially on opening week. We're talking avg, 5-8%. It's more at your discount/sub-run houses.

AMC knows it, freakin $7 for a regular drink

and if you want to support your theaters, buy more concessions. because they get SHIT from the ticket sales...

So, we charged an extra $1 per. F'em

First, they threatened to stop sending us digital because we weren't upcharging for it (back when we were still "mixed" format). Then they threatened to stop sendingus 3D because we didn't upcharge for those either initially.

Can't blame the theater totally for those ticket prices. The studios have a say in them as well.

Charge 'em for the lice! Extra for the mice! Two percent for looking in the mirror twice!

Even here in Canada where price gouging is commonplace, IMAX 3-D is still $19.50

$27 a ticket? That's ludicrous

I gave up on IMAX this year. I was just about able to put up with $20 per ticket, but by the time the new Kong came out, my theater started charging $27 per. They must be outside their damn minds.

I paid for a ticket to a 2D showing but they showed it in 3D anyways for some reason. I think me taking an Ibuprofen before I went for other reasons is the only reason I didn't walk out with a massive headache.

One thing I'll give Bay and/or the promoters of this film... I like how they've advertised on the poster that this was actually shot with real, IMAX 3-D cameras. I wish the marketing of other films exhibited a similar interest in the quality of the equipment used. Hell, for some films, being visually interesting is about all they have going for them

I assume the Autobots will be even bigger assholes in this one, especially Optimus

I have my ticket to see it in IMAX this Saturday... looking forward to another bizarre, 3 hour spectacle of something or other

Bay already said he won't do another... but what does a persons word mean these days anyway. Doesn't really matter how bad the movies are (or aren't. You know, whatever floats your goat.) so long as they make money. And his flicks do make money.

maybe this one will do poor enough that theyll have to rethink their entire strategy going forward. and hopefully this WILL be bays last one (specially if it does do poorly). well, rethink after bumblebee anyway

Yeah... the reception for the movie has been... mixed to poor to say the least. Thanksfully, I gave up on the bayverse films after the first one.

well theres SOMETHING showing in movie theaters. whether it can actually be CALLED a "movie" seems to be debatable

Oh, is the new movie out?

I got a rock.

BB here

Who here got a Bumblebee shirt and who got the Optimus shirt at the premiere?

"Bowdlerizing" basically means censorship, in the "removing anything the person in charge of the editing considers unsuitable for children" sense.

Sorry, not sure what happened there. Shout edited; link should work now.
