I Saw Suicide Squad Tonight and Loved It!
I loved Suicide Squad, so much that I might have to check out the comics now. I really don't know why people are making it out to be like it's not very good. There will always be people like that, especially on the internet and it's getting kind of old. I also loved the new Ghostbusters movie. I still don't know why people care what "critics" think anyways. Most don't seem to actually like movies to begin with or they are people who are not into movies involving comedy or action. And most people who write about movies for whatever publications or news outlets write more from the perspective of what their silly market is with who they work for.
I also don't get why people are acting as though this movie is bombing. Making millions and millions, and millions of dollars and being number one two weeks in a row, already surpassing their budget, and breaking records for their daily intake on days like Monday and Tuesday is hardly bombing. I also saw an article earlier about a movie that came out this week and only made it to third place and they wrote about it saying something about how it came out at a "healthy third." Really??? No one wrote about Ghostbusters when it was in third place and Ghostbusters is still playing in movie theatres.
And for those who hate the movie even though they didn't actually see it or people that did and didn't like it, yeah, maybe you should have instead gone to see Nine Lives or the Secret Lives of Pets, I'm sure those would be better than Suicide Squad, lol.
The only thing I didn't care for about Suicide Squad was the music they chose for it. It's been so overdone with summer movies, since all the way back with freaking Con Air and Armageddon. It's like they decided to pick songs from Shrek 1, 2, and 3. Also, where was Batman in all of this? The whole city had to be evacuated and this group of villains was put together but Batman had no interest in stopping what was going on, weird.
Other than that though, this movie was so good and just solid. I don't even care for super hero movies much. I never got into the X-Men movies or Spiderman much, especially after the first one's and Suicide Squad has been the best one compared to anything else for sure.
A Really Good Weekend of Comics
This has been an awesome weekend with comics, lol. I can't believe how I am still pretty obsessed with comics since getting into them a little over a month ago. I got a little worried a few weeks ago when I spent a bit too much money than I probably should have but I am back to obsessing about them every day. Tonight I am going to see Suicide Squad finally. I haven't checked out the comic books yet and doubt that I will but I am curious about the movie.
Yesterday I went to the comic book store and got my biggest variety of comics to check out so far. I am still trying to find things that interest me and getting better with fine tuning what kind of stuff I am into. I really liked the issue of Incognito that I got last week and cot a few more of those. And I finally got a couple Hellboy's and really like it too.
I also finally got an issue of Paper Girls, getting their latest issue #8 and love it. I am going to have to get as many other issues that they still have on the rack when I go there Wednesday.
And what I got from the dollar bins:
Criminal #4
Doctor Who - New Adventures With The Twelfth Doctor #10
Hate #7
Hellboy - The Fury 2 of 3
Hellboy in Hell #5
Incognito #3
Incognito #5
Incognito #6
Patsy Walker: Hellcat 1 of 5
Patsy Walker: Hellcat 3 of 5
Lobster Johnson #4
Sleeper #9
Sleeper #10
I also had my first kind of awkward situation with the person that works at the comic book store. I've dealt with him two or three times now and he's always been cool but when I gave him the comics that I got from the dollar bin he seemed suspicious of the Lobster Johnson and looked inside to see when it came out. Not sure if he thought it was a newer issue or something that should have cost more than a dollar but he didn't really make a big deal out of it but it just made me feel uncomfortable that he was suspicious. I probably would be too of new people coming into the store and they don't really know me yet but I love this place and want to support them as much as I can. I definitely wouldn't be shady and putting something in like a dollar bin pile although I am already weirdly self conscious about shopping in the dollar bin section already because they probably do get people who maybe do that and I don't know if they go through the long boxes extensively enough to take out all the really good or more expensive stuff. So yeah, I'm always weirdly self conscious about the dollar bins, lol. And sometimes people that work there walk by me a good amount while I spend way too much time there and in the dollar bins as well. It also doesn't help that I am really shy and don't like to look at people so I probably do seem creepy and probably shady there, lol.
