I'm wary of the sequel though, if production goes forward. It seems like a one-movie kind of deal and I don't know if they're planning to go with a new cast and a new story, or continue off with this one.

But it's one of my favorite found footage films because they find a great way that's explained within the film to have it be found footage, but not shaky handheld the whole time. Also love seeing Thor on someone's list, Loki really is an amazing character and the first film is such a Shakespearean drama sussed up as a superhero film. And of course, the Incredibles has long been one of my favorites, you can't get much better than that one. - BubbawheatAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5847155578608673190.post-28780090485548409162015-04-24T06:07:00.767+08:002015-04-24T06:07:00.767+08:00I'm seeing a lot of Chronicle this week, I hav...I'm seeing a lot of Chronicle this week, I have yet to watch it but it does sound intriguing, from the cover art I can't see it being a superhero movie but you and other bloggers have proved me wrong on that fact today. Regarding Thor, I'm not a huge fan and personally would choose Iron Man over him as my favorite Marvel character but I did find the movie enjoyable. The Incredibles...wow I wish I had thought of that one, excellent pick, thats one of my favorite Pixar films as well :)<br /><br /><a href="http://mikescinema.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Mike's Cinema</a>Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02307329021974601533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5847155578608673190.post-76371548495563413832015-04-24T00:42:39.481+08:002015-04-24T00:42:39.481+08:00The Incredibles are everywhere today!

I'm not sure I buy people's classification of it as a superhero origin story, but I don't care (it was a bonus pick for me this week) since it's so enjoyable.

The Incredibles is popular today! I never did see Chronicle, but I read about the ending and accidentally spoiled it for my husband so he got mad and we never watched it.
