Skwirl posted:Wow, please tell me this was the same day we dropped the largest non-nuclear bomb ever. Firstly, I can't believe I just learned it was a MOAB. That's like, from 2003, and yes it's the first time it's been used, but it's not a new thing. All day I kept hearing about this "largest non-nuclear bomb ever". Yes, that thing I learned about 14 years ago. Secondly, lol at article which made the front page of reddit having this misleading bullshit in it before they edited it out Tom Batchelor, a dumbass at INDEPENDENT posted:Little Boy, which was dropped on Hiroshima at the end of the Second World War, had 15 kilo-tonnes of TNT. The GBU-43 has 11. Yes. It does have 11. 11 tonnes. compared to 15,000 tonnes.

Snak posted:Ex Machina could be done with like, 2 main sets, and a minimalist set for the very final scene. A little bit of creative costuming and some minimal expository dialogue additions to fill in things that were clearly conveyed in visuals in the film. It barely has 4 characters. If you watched the episode of Abstract (on Netflix), the woman who creates plays from light fixtures would be the only person I could name for the job. If you haven't seen it, it's not my favorite episode, but it's great nonetheless.

Warning: If you hate the "Martha" scene from BvS, Fast 8 is not the movie for you.

The best F&F is still 2 Fast 2 Furious, and I reckon it and Beavis are 'bout even.

corn in the bible posted:you're an idiot if you think anything with ugly fake cgi action can be better than fast five You're a sucker if you can't appreciate Singleton's contribution to American action and pop cinema. The bubblegum, homoerotic vibe of the movie is way more visually and emotionally interesting than anything Justin Lin or James Wan has ever done, as good as it is.

The trailer for F8 of the Furious is way better movie than BvS. It's also better than the trailer for BvS. Fast 5 is the last F&F I got around to seeing, and it was better than Man of Steel and also better than BvS. I've only seen 1, 4, and 5 F&F movies, I really need to fix that.

The idea that disliking the worst blockbuster of 2016 is somehow snobbish and "pants-making GBS threads" is so amazingly out of touch and delusional. It's like something from the CBR forums.

Also, I only watched BvS like, a month ago, so it's not like I've been carrying a torch for how lovely it is for a fuckin year or whatever.

I have never seen BvS and I never will. I feel nothing about this. It is not a point of pride or a point of shame. It is just reality. I feel nothing about it. Honestly if y'all weren't constantly arguing about it it wouldn't exist to me so stop it.

The non-nuclear qualifier makes it seem less big, it's big enough to kill people for miles. It's the third biggest bomb used in a military operation ever and the biggest bomb used in a military operation in more than 60 years. I'm pretty sure we just committed a war crime because our President was bored or angry.

I mean, it doesn't make it less hosed up, I'm just annoyed that after people talking about the MOAB for ten loving years, when they finally use one, they don't call it that, and I think it's some totally different thing.

Speaking of movies from 2016 and gross military actions, 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi was pretty great. edit: ^ And yet still better than BvS. I didn't see Suicide Squad. I could imagine it being worse.

Beavis isn't a bad movie, it's just s cog in the merchandise machine. It has nothing to say and contributes nothing of value outside advertising. It's a Big Mac movie.

No way, it's like an hour short, which means it would have to have >50% more badness per hour to be worse.

It's not even the Big Mac, because that implies a level of childlike indulgence and reckless abandon. That's Civil War. Beavis is joyless and tedious. It's McDonald's lovely black coffee with a packet of sweet n low that didn't mix quite right so it hits you in the wave of coffee grounds as you finish it.
