Just watched ASM 2 for the first time. I don't think it's as atrociously bad as some make it out to be, but it's certainly not a good movie. The character arcs for the villains were undeveloped, and the mystery surrounding Peter's parents disappearance, which had been built up over 2 movies, was resolved in about two minutes in a massive anti-climax. And the over use of slowmo in every action scene broke any sort of immersion I woul have had.

The only thing this movie had going for it was the PP/Gwen Stacey relationship. Some nice moments between them. So of course th directorial staff had to fuck that up too. This movie is just tragic.

genuine question: why is gerrard leaving? if rodgers doesn't want him why does he play so regularly, if he plays so regularly and gets paid well why does he want to leave?

Because foolishly he believes he can play the same way and every game. If he was to stay he'd play from the bench. No way he would play at the current frequency.

He wants 100% playing time. Off to MLS it seems.

Remember the debates about Lamps vs Gerrard? I guess Frank won :|

God dammit!!!

There was no need for yet another origin story to the villains or Parker/Spiderman. It's obviuos that Sony was triying so hard to distance themselves from Riami's Spiderman films. Should have just gone for a Venom storyline straight from the bat, had Emma Stone play MJ instead and had more of the relationship/Parker in school shit happening.

Hendo must be wondering what the fuck is going on.

2 and a half years ago, we were trying to swap him for Clint Dempsey. In September, he's our captain.

His groin injury from a few years ago has pretty much resulted in Gerrard's down turn, compared to Lampard.

He can't shoot anymore.

Do you think Rossiter will be eased into the team next season as a Gerrard replacement? Or do you think he still needs a loan like Ibe?

Watched Budapest a few days ago.

Beatiful movie, defiantly in my top 5 for this year.

I also want to watch Birdman and Nightcrawler but neither is showing at local cinemas :/
Nightcrawler is alright, but Jake is phenomenal, again.

I smell a power move with this announcement being made so early.

Rodgers against Gerrard maybe?, announced so early is damaging, such an odd decision.

Hearing some from Liverpool are saying no money for Rodgers in January also.

ASM2 was fun, I fucking loved the use of music in Electro's fight scenes!

Down right terrible origin story too, Electro was supposed to be utterly badass and devastating, dunno why he made him a simpleton loser ;_;

Can we have a full movie dedicated to Venom and Carnage before this franchise goes tits up again pls??
Just watched 'The Double'

Pretty confusing tbh :lol but I liked it

In my opinion, I reckon he goes straight into the squad and then the judgement is made from there.

He won't be a Gerrard replacement though. I suspect the club will want to distance him from those comparisons as much as possible.

I didn't mind Emma Stone playing Gwen Stacey instead of MJ (she's a stunner with red hair tho). That was a relationship which was never explored in Raimi's trilogy. Should've had Peter already as Spiderman and hunting down the newest villain. Could've developed whatever romantic relationship they wanted to tell without having to introduce his fucking character for the umpteenth time.

Or maybe it was his decision. He doesn't want to stay long enough to see himself turn into a villain

Can you imagine your own fans sighing and groaning when they hear your name in the XI

This isnt how it supposed to end

He was forced to walk alone
Nightcrawler was great. Probably my favourite film this year.
It was definitely one of the best movies in 2014
 
Ra's Al Ghul in Arrow?!

Oh, I have seen Enemy! I even posted about it, was interesting/cool. Will try and find my post for you! :)

And fuck Sony's current direction with Spiderman, just give it back to Marvel. PLS

About time for Gerrard to leave. It isn't a case of him going out on top like Fergie did or Scholes (both times?!). He's a detriment to the match day squad now, regardless of what he brings to the table in other regards.

Henderson's ready to step up; give him the captaincy, play him in the middle.

YES SCUM

Awesome innit :D

I'm really enjoying this second season. :eek:

Yeah, can definitely see that stance from the club.


Personally I think he will be loaned out.
Well, I think he should be eased into the team instead.

You're right, he's past his best and its time for him to bow out as gracefully as possible.
