Let's just say I am very skilled at keeping to the very basis of whatever I am arguing about. I stick to point and the point is that healing factor doesn't make one a better fighter.


Now that you mentioned years of experience, do you expect the creators to show it all in one part when there are going to be sequels?

This is just to whet movie lovers appetite.

That Queen whatever is up to no good and she is an immortal.


Gmajor:

SMH.
You are very skilled at making surface level analysis of situations.

You only mentioned that they have healing factor, but does it also occur to you that these people also have thousand(s) of years of experience in combact?

The experience they have alone makes them extremely formidable.

4/10.

The movie was predictable and dull from beginning to end. Overhyped crap.

The moment I saw that villain's skyscraper office, I knew that the last fight was gonna happen there.

The protagonists had no challenges at all. All their opponents were humans- mortal humans. It would have been mad if they fought against immortals.

I see, it doesn't go with the way u want it.

I also got few prediction right while watching it - I knew the girl would return before she get to her family and I also knew the one buried in iron cage underneath the ocean would return as well.
What I don't know is how it would happen and that is where the suspense and unpredictability came in.

For the record, I checked Andy's real name on Google and it shows they got the story from the novel/drama written by one French writer in the 17th century (1667). So obviously it's not a thing of immortal vs immortal. Is there even any fun in that gan.

Why didn't they mk the wonder woman fight against immortals like her. No fun in that.

There are so many things wrong with your comment.

1. The Old Guard is a superhero movie (you said it is not).
a. The movie is based on a comic book
b. It features heroes who have superpowers (healing/regeneration)

2. The sequel is a bad thing if you didnt get the first one right.

3. The immortals are not ordinary soldiers. They have had 1,000s of years of training. They are ultimate experienced soldiers

4. Having a good villain or challenge is necessary, irrespective of movie genre. Even in dramas or horror or romance. I dont need immortals to be like Avengers but to have the necessary elements



Incase you have not been told... u are condescending..u drag a lot about being who’s right or wrong... geez!!! we are not in ss3, we are just talking about a movie and giving our opinion..u don not have the authority to say my opinion is wrong....

...u compared old guard to the avengers... they are not in the same level by a 1000yards

.... take it or live it... in this movie, these guys are not super heroes in the class of avengers..no super human strength... no special punches that can break a hole in a wall...they are freaking ordinary soldiers who nature suddenly activated their immortality...

... the same avengers and lots of marvel and DC super heroe movies you compared it to have sequels, yet, sequel is a bad thing for Old Guard..says who? You?. you are now an authority in movie analysis...?? Sequel is bad just becos you said so. And you started by saying I was wrong..?? This guy is funny mehn

....just to add...they are not all bad ass... except Andy that was far, far older than the rest becos she had lived many generations..the movie did try to portray that..you saw clearly they felt pain,Fire can burn and possibly kill them( although we’ve not seen this part. But there’s nothing fire can’t technically consume) Andy even almost died...
They are no different from wolverine without adamantium infused into his system that extend as his claws...now tell me is Wolverine that special without his famous unbreakable claws..?

They failed in whetting my appetite.

You are now arguing off-point. No one is saying that they should have done everything in one movie.

I also like how you dodged the years of experience of the immortals in combat. The villain's mercenaries were no match for the immortals.

Even if they couldn't do immortal vs immortal fights in the first movie, they could have given the good guys more challenges.

For instance, the villain could have been more competent (or smart) and carried the immortal hostages to a secure location with mercenaries that have armour piercing rounds that would incapacitate the immortals.

Or somewhere with quicksand traps to incapacitate the immortals.

Maybe the immortals would then have to resort to kamikaze piloting or suicide strategies to win the final battle.

See? I'm already writing a better, more creative film. Suck my b*** kazeem

Hmm...With Andy losing her immotality,the betrayal and also the number 3 coming back. To be candid i don't think she came back to do good.

Exactly, the more reason she went to the guy under penalty. She will poisoned his mind for the judgement he got and maybe blame Andy for abandoning her. More revelation to come, I assume.

Actually, I checked Andy's real name and it seems they got the story from a French writer of his 17th century (1667) book.

Read my post slowly and try to understand. Beside, I merely typed my opinion and it's not a must for my opinion to tally with yours. So please bug off and leave me be.

Thank you.

Pele, u even try rate the movie well than few mofos here.

The storyline was great as well as chalize energy in action movies.

Shoot them thereby incapacitating them then chain them (zero superhuman strength) and do your research on them.


You think this is MCU cheesy



cheesy

Guy arguing with someone like her is a tough neck thing. They would never accept they are off-point nor reason with you in the argument.

Then it ll get to a point u started looking like a fool if u continue with the argument too long.

With all your post I've read here and the little you wrote to reply me after all I said. I guess u know I'm right and I won. I wanted to delete the statement on wonder woman cos I knew it would be a combative source.

Everybody gather here please, special announcement.

Oh....so you prefer that the villain should keep the captured immortals in an office building that is not secure in the middle of the city, and with mercenaries equipped with normal guns.

Note that the building was in the middle of the city, surrounded by other tall buildings. So many places for snipers and paragliding.


Please, use your brain. What I posted was far better than the movie. If not, post your reasons against. Dont just make claims then run

But you clearly said that healing factor was not enough. Did you also forget the centuries of combat experience?

For people that could have amassed so much knowledge and riches over a thousand years, they were easily captured.

Even illiterate mexican druglords had better sense of security than the immortals.

Look at their shite safe house.

The movie is too silly abeg
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nobody: 4:13pm On Jul 14, 2020
You are right, very silly movie with no atom of logic or common sense.


The director, producer, cast members and everyone associated with the movie ought to be executed by guillotine.
