Hmmm. It seems like you must not like any games at all that are reminiscent of any game you previously played. I bet you only play completely new ip game to game. The Idea of a crossover between a few games must make you nauseous with disgust.just kidding. I get what you're saying... Movie was badass though, I'm sorry you can't allow yourself to enjoy itI haven't read the book, but the trailers look like CG messes & 'forced' nostalgia galore...."HEY, remember that robot you liked as a kid? Well, HERE he is, in your FACE! Say, remember Pac-Man, Strawberry Shortcake, and Chucky?? You like those guys, RIGHT? Well, they're here, and so is Mr. T in drag AND Skeletor riding a DeLorean, AWESOMELY 80sssss!! And heyyyyy, you like those Van Halen songs, YEAH?? ...Wait...you weren't even born yet when that music was popular....hmmmmm....LOOK -- Iron Giant, remember him?!"
It seems like they were trying to create a reference-filled universe for those that weren't actually there at the time, heh.....nostalgia-land, for the kids of 80s kids who weren't able to experience the real thing, perhaps?
The excerpts I've read haven't exactly been the pinnacle of coherent or thoughtful writing and exposition, but I guess I'll need to give it a quick read to judge the full thing
I enjoyed the book as well, but I enjoyed it in the same way I enjoyed the Da Vinci code like 15 years ago, it was a fun ride, but it was not well written in any way shape or form.
It's the modern equivalent of a pulp novel loaded to the gills with 70s/80s/90s nostalgia. It's great for what it is, but it isn't to be held up as a pinnacle of English Literature, you know?

It looks great, but it won't be getting anymore top-grossing weekends when Avengers comes out.
It was pretty great. I'm probably gonna have to rewatch it.
I have the book from a Loot Crate, but I haven't read it yet. Will have to do that at some point too.

That's not what I heard. From what I heard, the movie is vastly different from the book. They could probably be enjoyed as two separate things.
I'm gonna go again this weekend. Probably wont do it 3D this time, already got that out of the ol' system
