Help, I've turned into a manifestation of mental disorders as viewed through an early 20th century lens sparked by the disparity between man and modern society and I can't get up
I hope they do something on Blade Runner again soon because

I have questions about Replicants...

Really after the piece of crap that was alien vs predator requiem I just decided they stopped making alien films.

I decided they stopped making any film really.

Any film except babies day out.

I love the story on the helicopter stunt.

30 helicopter pilots: You can't do that.
Producers: You can't do that.
Stuntmen: You can't do that.
Insurance guys: You can't do that.
Various film unions: You can't do that.
Physicist: You can't do that.
Crazy Vietnam veteran: poo poo man, I'll do it.

When that helicopter flew under the bridge in the theater I said 'NO loving WAY' out loud.

Can't think of a movie that's done that to me lately. Too much CGI makes stuff feel boring and safe.

Does Jack Sparrow make a joke about how he'd never got a woman who wasn't his wife? I could forgive the whole franchise for just one good domestic abuse joke told by Depp.

Die hard later did it too when they got one to fly out of a hanger, but T2 still beats it on the danger scale. I can't find a video though.

Basically, Pirates 5 is the worst movie in the franchise. Depp phones it in, the two new characters are boring pretty people with not much character beyond "Daddy issues" and "knows astrology." gently caress, Geoffrey Rush and Javier Bardem can't do enough to move this film mediocre. See this movie if seeing Orlando Bloom reunite with his pirate family is the single most important part of your life. You will achieve nirvana in the last 10 seconds of the film, after dragging yourself through 1 hour and 59 minutes of everything else.


It can't be overstated just how...sad the whole thing felt. There were character revelations and I...guess a twist about someone's parentage, and a lovely useless cameo by Paul McCartney, and I just hated every second of it. Worse than 3, worse than 4, just trash.
