There is something about their size and vulnerability my mind can not get around. “Then once I read it, it was just unbelievable”.

MC: Chris Pratt mentioned learning a lot from Jennifer Lawrence on this film. The perils of space, including an asteroid field, cause the ship to start to malfunction, leading to one of the passengers, Jim Preston (Chris Pratt), being woken up 90 years too early. Really, this press tour has not been kind to Star-Lord.
These random interludes dominate Pratt and Lawrence’s discussions, which are filled with standing jokes and an abiding respect for moronic humor. “I believed the script was flawless”, Pratt said.
“There’s no “We’ll cut to this if the actor’s bad”. Yet many critics have already weighed in and reviews have not been positive, with the movie now holding a low, 33-percent rating on the website Rotten Tomatoes.
This happens in the first act of the movie, which is why I feel okay talking about it. “This was really easy”, he says. I am not sure if he even spoke a single word, yet he managed somehow to get a big screen credit at the end. Debates walking out of the theater will burst out as people question what they, themselves, would have done in situation, likely reluctant to admit they would follow suit.
Fortunately, “Passengers” has two nonhuman elements that help to pass the time in these initial stages, starting with the impressive production design by Guy Hendrix Dyas (“Inception”) that makes the massive Avalon, mostly built for real on huge sound stages, seem like a real place. For the most part, the acting was solid, but the skill level was not equal.
While there’s little to no chance of Mystique popping up in Guardians Vol. 2 – which is already far past its last day of filming – we shouldn’t be too shocked to see her make a cameo in a future sequel.
While Chris Pratt has spent a decent amount of time completely trolling Jennifer Lawrence on Instagram, J Law’s lashed back with a hilarious spray paint prank that was pretty admirable.
“They never met until after they signed off”.
Jennifer Lawrence loves horses, but at a very young age, she was thrown off from a horse that deformed her tailbone permanently. We worked together great, we had fun. But in the world we live in, when something breaks, you don’t fix something, you buy a new one.
And once your personalized alarm clock goes off on this intergalactic cruise, there’s no way hit the snooze and go back to deep sleep-you’re up. But as I thought about it more, that aspect was really interesting.

Looking back on the close-to-decade journey out of development hell, full of false starts with numerous actors attached, Spaihts calls the time his “film school”, as he took part in nearly every creative facet of getting the movie made (he’s also an executive producer on the movie). Look for John Clyde’s parent’s review article on Wednesday to explain why this may or may not be a good idea.
