Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted March 20, 2018 Paid Members Posted March 20, 2018 Batista's doing a buddy cop film with Kumail Nanjiani and I could not be more excited for this. Quote
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted March 21, 2018 Moderators Posted March 21, 2018 Definitely would like to go in fresh for that one.. No reviews or trailers. Quote
Paid Members PunkStep Posted March 21, 2018 Paid Members Posted March 21, 2018 That sounds bloody incredible. I've seen Kumail in something before, can't remember what now- he's quite deadpan right? I remember liking him. But my god- Big Dave in this kind of film is awesome. He was probably the best thing about GOTG2, and that's saying something because everyone was great in it. Really gave him another string to his bow and showed he can pull off comedy well. @Devon MalcolmI know how you feel about superhero movies, but I also know that as a real man you love some Big Dave in your life. You should give Guardians of the Galaxy 2 a watch just for Batista's performance. Plus, that French girl you like is in it. Quote
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted March 21, 2018 Moderators Posted March 21, 2018 (edited) He's in Silicon Valley, and he made a film last year called the big sick. He's had bit parts in some other films and tv shows over the last few years. Edited March 21, 2018 by Chest Rockwell Quote

Ingrid Goes West is great btw, you should all watch it. Yeah, Nanjiani was in The Big Sick, it was based on his relationship with Emily V. Gordon. It's a really good film, not anywhere near what you would expect from a standard romcom. Definitely recommended. Quote
Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted March 21, 2018 Paid Members Posted March 21, 2018 Big Dave's turn in the first Guardians of the Galaxy is maybe the most fun I've had watching a character in a Marvel effort. Everyone has sort of copied parts of the formula since, but you can sometimes forget how refreshing that first film was, and particularly Big Dave's character who was so unique and fun and incredibly funny. They played off your preconceptions perfectly. Quote
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted March 21, 2018 Paid Members Posted March 21, 2018 In more great news, Tessa Thompson and Chris Hemsworth are partnering up for a Men in Black spin-off. Unfortunately it's to be directed by F. Gary Gray but it is Chris Hemsworth in a comedy again, so this could be excellent too. Quote
Paid Members PunkStep Posted March 21, 2018 Paid Members Posted March 21, 2018 Hey Devon! If you like Chris Hemsworth in comedy roles, you should totally check out Thor Ragna....oh I'm wasting my time aren't I?! Quote
Paid Members Bellenda Carlisle Posted March 22, 2018 Paid Members Posted March 22, 2018 Nobody tell Devon Men in Black is based on a comic. Quote
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted March 22, 2018 Paid Members Posted March 22, 2018 You of all people should know that it's not comic books, it's superheroes. Quote
Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted March 23, 2018 Awards Moderator Posted March 23, 2018 John Cena’s getting good reviews for his part in Blockers. BIGMATCHJOHN Quote
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted March 23, 2018 Paid Members Posted March 23, 2018 The film looks bad but he was brilliant in Trainwreeck so I can well believe that. Quote
Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted March 23, 2018 Paid Members Posted March 23, 2018 The trailer had a couple of funny moments, but aye, I was certain it would be something along the lines of "Dirty Grandpa" in reception and tone. Currently sitting at a 90% on Rotten Tomatoes and 74% on Metacritic. I noticed The Guardian gave it 3*, so it must be alright, because The Guardian are right snooty when it comes to their comedies.
