Sax Solo posted:Oh you mean the Parker Posie episode. I think the last episode is maybe the worst one so no great loss. I think I got what M&MS was going for, but my main problem with it is that they succeeded so well at the relationship trouble part that I was sick of their poo poo too, and I didn't care about either of them by the end. You know there's multiple shows whose best episode is a Parker Posie episode

On rewatching Predator 2 I now think its depiction of escalating super crime makes this the prequel to Robocop

Predator 2 might be the sweatiest movie ever made, just positively drenched. Bill Paxton is sweating through his suit jacket, they're probably even sweating in that deep freezer.

It's always been amusing to me that the one piece of lore that there is in Predator is that they like hot weather. So Antarctica is of course a natural place for them to build a pyramid.

at the time there was a lot of concern regarding the effects of holes in the ozone layer on global warming (the last time there was any unanimous agreement on fighting climate change) between that and skynet the future of 1997 looked pretty uncertain

So are we referencing the conversation from the pilot of Cheers or are we actually having this conversation? Either way: Alien.

I don't understand the people who didn't like the first Villeneuve Dune movie.... It's one of the coolest looking movies of all time in an era when CGI is actually getting worse.

mcmagic posted:I don't understand the people who didn't like the first Villeneuve Dune movie.... It's one of the coolest looking movies of all time in an era when CGI is actually getting worse. Same. IMO it's the best sci-fi since the Matrix at least, and one of the most faithful adaptations of the book we could ever hope for in a film format. It's just a perfect / near-perfect film.

Honestly I was just bored by it. It looked good and had a couple scenes I really loved (throat singing Sardaukar? ) but otherwise it just...didn't get weird enough for me! It didn't help that movies split into two parts sucks and leaves me feeling ultimately unfulfilled when I walk out of the theater.

I knew going in I wasn’t going to absolutely love it because I am a huge fan of Lynch’s Dune. It was *fine* but I hate how turning sci-fi into a “prestige drama” means making everything drab and brown and grey and uninteresting. You’re showing me a weird alien galaxy, so put some hosed up looking poo poo jn there!

All of the giant ships and missiles and stuff in villeneuve's dune looked fuckin rad. Unfortunately there was very little of this in the movie, and a lot of time was spent on the arrakis interiors, which were very bland. The soldiers also just looked like an army of master chief clones Also I prefer the classic triple jawed sandworms to the new kind

Villeneuve's style has always kind of leaned monochromatic- like, BR2049 has some interesting use of color but Arrival could very well have been black and white without feeling very different. It's a style thing but not really my preference. I did like how boxy all the ships and tech looked, though. Sort of a sci-fi brutalism and does a decent job conveying the sheer mass and power of everything at work.

It didn't help that movies split into two parts sucks and leaves me feeling ultimately unfulfilled when I walk out of the theater. yeah it's just not very weird, there's tons of expository dialogue and yet still not enough to understand what's going on, the space politics are cut to the absolute bone, the sword fights are painfully generic when the goofball premise of the shields opens a space to make them into something totally unique. great sounding movie though.

I've been reading the book this last week and it's amazing how much heavy lifting Lynch did to make Dune visually weird, because the descriptions in the book are almost universally bog-standard medieval stuff.

Well I finished Mr. & Mrs. Smith and it was Really Really Bad. Terrible waste of Parker Posey, constant terrible action and writing that seems to intentionally undercut the terrible action... fundamentally the issue for me is that the two main characters are just unbelievably stupid and terrible at absolutely everything. The plot warps around them to let them succeed for no reason sometimes, but when they encounter problems they're just pathetically, insanely dumb and boring.
