Quantum of Phallus posted:A lot of really bad American comedies in the last ten years or so have been going that way. Just point the camera at your cast and get them to say funny stuff. It's crap. Agreed. I can't even remember the last American comedy I really loved. Probably Stepbrothers, an opinion that is no doubt divisive.

EmmyOk posted:I hope the new film shows people how good the Jackson one was. FWIW I have seen that trailer as two separate trailers before this so I think that one literally is just them reuploaded as one. It wasn't just reuploaded to YouTube I actually saw that trailer when I saw Logan lol.

I like Peter Jackson's King Kong because of all the crazy dinosaurs and stuff that happens on SKull Island, and the lead-up to it. It was way too long to sit through in the theater but at home its not so bad.

achillesforever6 posted:The wikipedia plot summary does it better than I can explain, basically he does goes insane as most Lovecraftian protagonists do (the story is mostly told in flashback too while the protagonist is in a insane asylum which is another common thing Lovecraft did) Haha what's up with 1:06:10 why's this guy taking a weird swipe at islam? All through the documentary he's like "yeah lovecraft was racist as gently caress but give him a break" and then an hour in he's all "and mooselimbs gonna behead us all"

There's plenty of good comedy still to be found, it's really just that the prominent Apatow-Fieg brand of comedy takes up all the air in the room and is what we consider straight "Comedy" these days, and it's really played out. The 40 Year Old Virgin was funny though.

John C. Reilly with a samurai sword was the best part of Kong and I don't give a gently caress if you disagree with me. I laughed.

That shotgun blast to the head/eye socket should have killed x24, Fallout style. Guess it went in at a bad angle. Seeing the great Xavier reciting taco bell commercials in a state of dementia was neat.

Getting to preview the new beauty and the beast. There's just no way for the cg to compete with the original animation. No charm, just...blah, soulless standard cg. It kills me and takes me out of the whole thing.
