    Haven’t seen it yet, but I just wanted to say that I love there are now official discussion threads here. I’m looking forward to participating more in the future.

      Thank you. One of the first things I did after watching a movie was to check out discussion threads so once I moved here to Lemmy, I became a mod mostly to get these threads going. I’m glad you are liking it, and I look forward to see your comments! I’m not super excited to check this movie out but I’ll see it before too long I’m sure.

    I enjoyed it and was surprised with George Lopez being in it. Don’t know much about Blue Beetle as a character so I can’t attest to the comic accuracy though.

    Overall it was a simple super hero film to relax to after a long week of work. Not a lot of hard concepts to track just a fun straight forward movie. I’d watch it again.

      I enjoyed the fuck out of it. Knew next to nothing going in. G-Lo stole every scene he was in!
