Even the 'good' reviews are saying it's BAD


That means it sucks.


Absolutely no hype for this movie. I can't believe the cast bothered wanting to make this crap.

It ain't crap.

reply

That's not necessary movies based on video games mostly sucks because the company that made the game it's not the one that is making the movie but not with assassins creed cause Ubisoft is envolved in this movie

reply

And that's why I have faith in this movie.

No, it doesn't mean it sucks. The reason why reviews aren't up yet is because the embargo only ends on 20 December, and the reason why the embargo ends so late is because the movie has been submitted for consideration of a number of Oscar nominations, not because it sucks. Same reason why the embargo for Rogue One only ended this week, even though the movie opens tomorrow.

Watching these trailers you'd have to be completely inept to think it is more likely to win an Oscar for any reason than to think the movie simply sucks.

Whatever, stay in denial all you want, the movie is going to suck and when the reviews hit you'll tell yourself critics are just too high brow. Then you'll see the movie, defend it, and in a month you'll realize it really wasn't good at all.

You are talking uter crap.

That you hate the movie doesn't make it bad. This movie is gonna be good ( metacritic 75 to an 80 en RT 70% to an 80 % fresh )

reply

Have fun being completely wrong when reviews pour in, ninja_coola. 70-80%? Keep dreaming, kid.

@ninja_coola:

Remember that time when you said the reviews would be great and the embargo was up simply because the movie was going to win an oscar?

The embargo has absolutely nothing to do with award consideration. Silence has had reviews posted for weeks. Don't just make up things to try and sound smart.

reply

People should also stop making the asumption that the embargo is because Fox thinks its gonna be bad. Because that ain't the *beep* reason.

reply

They have no confidence in their film. It may not be a direct statement that they think their own product is a crap, but it's the closest thing you'll ever get to it.

No, just trying to troll Mr Gloat up there. At any rate, the embargo doesn't necessarily mean that it's bad either. It could either be because it's bad and they want to limit word of mouth or because it's good and they want to keep the hype up.

At any rate, I'm not going to be defending it if the reviews are indeed bad, I'm not a fan of the games, have not really played them, so I've got nothing invested in the franchise. I'm just kind of hoping that it will be good, so that we at least have one good video game movie, but I'm weary.

*beep* I can tell you're a total dork, DrNarud. "At any rate," "At any rate." I can tell you push up your glasses as you say that like a catchphrase.

Good thing you posted this when you saw the reviews trickling in. Save you self the embarrassment of siding with ninja_coola.

That was posted before I knew what the reviews were going to be. And I'm not lying when I said that I was never a fan of the games. You should of seen me when I was actually defending the Warcraft movie.

reply

I think one reason they don´t want to release the reviews (and early screenings) is to divide the buzz from the "star wars stream". Because no matter how much good reviews you´ll have these days, number one on the internet and discussions is Rogue One. But after the weekend when the initial buzz from the people who saw rogue one will pass, then is a good time to hit it with a lot of good (hope so) reviews and focus all the mediums and positive buzz to Assassins Creed. Of course maybe it´s only my theory but from what I know I can´t belive this movie is goin to be a turd. It´ll be OK at least. Praying for it.

reply

They released it close to Rogue One so that when it flops they have an out in saying Rogue One was too big of a hit instead of admitting they didn't make a good film.








https://youtu.be/COqgClha3D0

reply

Well, they'll certainly be able to point to Rogue One if the results are disappointing. But it's not like they picked this date with that in mind; AC was first on the slate, before RO picked its date.

reply

The date 21 December is because of the link with the games 21 December was a big thing in Assassin's Creed III.

reply

Why they should admit that they didn't make a good film if this is simply NOT true?

Nolan, I love you forever!

reply

when is the embargo up?

reply

Exactly. Better yet, why should they admit it even if it is true when the embargo is up and they're trying to promote the film. Best wait and see, I've got a feeling that it might be good but I'm also worried because I've also read some negative things about it.

reply

It is true, kid. It's certainly objectively true.








https://youtu.be/COqgClha3D0

reply

Critics are humans just like us (well, me, at least, cause I'm not sure you are a highly-intelligent being called human judging by your posts, plus every human knows that there is no objectivity in art).

Nolan, I love you forever!

reply

A "hightly" intelligent being, huh.

reply

Yes, the one you are totally not.

Nolan, I love you forever!

reply

No objectivity in art? Are you making the argument that an art piece that makes you feel bored is something worth recommending?

Yes, that seems intelligent of you.








https://youtu.be/COqgClha3D0

reply

The fact that you do not recomment a movie you find boring doesn't mean that somebody else could find this entertaining. I get bored by Transformers and Marvel movies, but there are people enjoying them, even without my recommendation. Do you see now?

Nolan, I love you forever!

reply

If that were the case you would only be listening to what you think and not wasting your time on a discussion board. Fact is, you're here trying to push your biased thoughts when the consensus is already in. Get over it, kid, not many people are living in the same bubble as you.








https://youtu.be/COqgClha3D0

reply

You made another thread to complain about a movie you haven't even seen. What kind of pathetic loser, are you? Get a life.

reply

This was the first thread I made, genuis, look at the time stamps. The other one where I owned you and you ran away was made much later.





https://youtu.be/COqgClha3D0

reply

I doubt you have owned anyone in your whole pathetic life, or that you even own anything. You sound like a little child. Your parents own everything. Go bother them.

reply

I just owned you. You were wrong about this being a new thread. FACT.







https://youtu.be/COqgClha3D0

reply

Wrong. I was right. You made multiple pathetic threads. You didn't own anyone. Go back to school.

reply



Deny all you want. I can tell I've offended you. Tell me, how much did my posts make you cry? 






https://youtu.be/COqgClha3D0

reply

I've read that whole discussion the two of you had in that other thread....and sorry to say benelli86, but he really owned you...

reply

Come to defend your lover? Have fun you two.

You seem upset 
