Yeah I guess, I'm not even counting that since it's no longer part of the rest of the Trek stuff at this point

Turns out that Dr. Cronenberg is one of those parasite things from Conspiracy, but that by the 32nd Century they're just accepted as an active part of the Federation. It's considered very impolite to seat him next to the Trill Delegation at formal dinners.

Did anyone ever talk about why David Cronenberg is even on the show? Is he a big Trek fan and asked? Is someone in production a big Cronenberg fan and he said sure I'm up for it? It's a weird get.

It's a weird get. David Cronenberg posted:I like to say – I guess ad nauseum – that I’m cheap and I’m available, and I live in Toronto (laughs). [Executive Producer] Alex Kurtzman apparently got in touch with some casting people who know me well because they cast my films. They asked if they thought I’d be interested in being part of the show. Of course, I said, “Who wouldn’t be?” I was certainly a fan of The Original Series and would never in a million years have dreamed I’d actually be in a show. So, I was happy to do it. And the timing was right, because I wasn’t directing anything at the time. From here.

He's pretty agreeable to show up in things if people ask him. He appeared in that Friday the 13th movie that goes into space. His only request was that he die.

Imagine being in a Jason movie and NOT wanting him to kill you in some weird, hosed up and ironic way

If I remember right at some point they set up a hologram program of sexy teen counselors to distract Jason into trying to kill them?  Also the opening sequence with the sting operation by the military is absolutely loving amazing.

Jason X has some fun bits but there’s so much dull garbage in between all of them.

Big Mean Jerk posted:Jason X has some fun bits but there’s so much dull garbage in between all of them. That's most horror movies. I love horror movies. I love that many streaming platforms let me watch the dull bits at 1.5 speed. Most 90 minute horror movies don't have 90 minutes of content. Some of them should be 20 minute shorts, not 90 minute features. So they fill it out with an hour of not much going on.

Plenty of 90 minute horror movies have 90 minutes of content. Playing them at 1.5x speed because you’re bored isn’t really watching the movie. At that point you’re just consuming it out of some weird joyless completionist obligation. If you don’t like what you’re watching, just stop watching it!

There are quite a lot of cheap horror movies -70's and 80's were bad at this-where they do just legit just have filler to fill out the run time. Like they'll just be a ten minute scene of two people eating dinner, where they basically just talk about how good the dinner is in between long periods of silence and it's very obvious the actors didn't even have a script for it.

I need the movie because the videogame I'm playing at the same time has slow bits where I have to wait for stuff to be built! dr_rat posted:There are quite a lot of cheap horror movies -70's and 80's were bad at this-where they do just legit just have filler to fill out the run time. So many horror movies have unnecessary road trips. Even some pretty good horror movies. Will spend endless minutes on a pointless road trip before getting to the spooky destination. Ideally this lets the audience get to know the characters and their group dynamic. Like the film makers saw that bit in Cabin in the Woods (and the movies that inspired it) but have no idea how to spend that time making us like and care about the characters. Another recurring one is where a bunch of 30 year olds are pretending to be 20 year olds pretending to get drunk and/or high and party, usually while being horrible assholes. But watching strangers be drunk and catty to each other isn't actually fun, much less spooky. It's like instead of hoping the "kids" get away we're supposed to get a justice boner that bad things are happening to bad people. Come on, get to the spooky witch or ghost or whatever.

Facebook Aunt posted:But watching strangers be drunk and catty to each other isn't actually fun, much less spooky. Particularly when the script forgot to give anyone but the killer, and if you're lucky the main character, a personality. Good b horror movies at least have fun side characters like the gruff grounds keeper, or the crazy old exposition guy and what not. They rarely managed to get the main characters friends group intresting. I think Scream was one of the first of the slashers that managed that. There were ones before that but it seems rare.
