I think forgetting Ninja Assassin is acceptable. |

Out of all of those I am excited about, and wanting to watch, 6 of them.
I love Sci-Fi but not a great line up.

28% for "Jupiter Ascending", and now the critics aren't being so nice to it. That's like, double the score for "The Seventh Son" but I don't think that's much of a consolation prize.

"Chappie" appears to be the latest sci-fi disappointment of the year. Early reviews aren't too kind, which is disappointing. Probably will see it regardless, but this seems to be closer to "Elysium" than "District 9".

Not kind is an understatement.
The Alien movie looks like more of the same from that franchise... meaning it will suck.

Self/less looks interesting but kinda rips off Freejack, which is without a doubt the best Mick Jagger movie ever. Ever.

Was reading some reviews for Chappie, man that movie sounds worse than anything I could have imagined.
And personally, I hate that the blomer keeps hiring people from his home. Ninja from Die Antwoord was apparently the worst actor he has ever worked with and refuses to work with him at all in the future. You know who he wanted for Elysium? In order? Ninja, Eminem, then Matt Damon.
I think he is kind of an idiot now, personally. Guy has decent ideas for short stories, but fleshed out they fail miserably. Get a new writer Neil.

Chappie has a 40 on Metacritic.

China is now the country that the studios can fall back on when they know it'll bomb domestically. Between that and Transformers recently, China really eats up our crap blockbusters.

I think I'm gonna go check out that Ex Machina movie this week.
Hoping it doesn't go too predictable in the end.

Yea I liked it a lot too. Didn't fall completely into the tropes I thought would catch it up. Great cgi too.

Ex Machina was pretty good. I think I only rolled my eyes once during the whole movie, and that was only because of the predictable "OF COURSE a dude-bro building a robot with honkers would give it the potential to be a sex bot" bit.

How much did Oscar Isaccs little like shaved head mohawk thing throw you guys off? Like right at the top of his head, he has a slightly different spot of hair on his head.
I couldn't get beyond it if it was in a shot. Did anyone mention it in post production or anything?

I figured there was just a scar or something that caused the discoloration in his hair. It didn't bother me, but I definitely noticed it.

Oscar Issac probably had sex with Franklyn's girlfriend.
