Bill Murray is annoying and the only time he works well in a film is when they lean into that.lemon-lyme disease posted:I’d like to see a comic book movie that isn’t presented like a comic book movie. That’s a maybe unpopular opinion. The Death of Stalin, Road to Perdition, Persopolis, A History of Violence. Something like Jessica Jones is very light on the action too. Adaptions of comic books don't have to be stereotypical action films but adaptions of DC / Marvel characters generally do.

My unpopular comic movie opinion: Superman II is my favorite, closely followed by Superman III and TDK. It's me, I'm the goon with the terrible taste.

The only Batman movies I like are the Keaton ones (still the best at actually being Batman, Bale and the others never captured Batman's basic mental illness like Keaton did.), and the Dark Knight.

yeah I eat rear end posted:I'm not sure what the confusion is about how people can enjoy them. People say they are "paint by numbers" and derivative, but that doesn't mean they are bad. If they paint by numbers well and stay in the lines, it will still be a passable painting. There's not much creative about things like marvel movies but that's not what they are trying to do so it's silly to try and critique it like some art film. The reasons aren’t obvious bc they’re boring. That’s my best word to describe them.

Tank Girl would have been amazing if it was fully animated in the same style as the cutscenes in the movie. It's still a very entertaining movie though.

Grandmother of Five posted:Me, upon seeing a beautiful flower: Pointless. This doesn't appear to contribute to society, no direct practical application or knowledge to glean from this. The flower will die without leaving a lasting impression in the fields of politics and mathematics; wasteful and inefficient. Yeah, if you sat down for two hours at a time to stare at a picture of a flower, passively, on a regular basis, I would say there was something wrong with you. steinrokkan has a new favorite as of 14:52 on Nov 24, 2017 |

At some point you must realize that just two people sitting down and talking would be more exciting and dynamic than a by the numbers action scene that just goes through the motions.

I like superhero movies to varying degrees because the comics got me as a small childe and remembering how it used to feel is usually better than whatever tepid emotion current events or original stories manage.

I have barely watched any anime but the fact that goons have such a hate on for it and act like it’s all creepy pedo poo poo is p silly. Samurai Champloo is legit good, Miyazaki is good, I have a soft spot for yugioh and digimon, and Death Note and Seven Samurai are amazing insane fun.

Those are mainstream though. Like every single person working for Disney Animation lives and breathes Miyazaki for inspiration. The gross anime is the rest of the stuff. I remember there was a thread on here about some show called Azumanga that was like 600 pages long and when I looked at it the show is about 13 year old girls.

No, they only normalize the idea that giving a government-sponsered private military force free reign to confront anything it considers a threat is the best way to keep the world safe with the defense that it's supposed to be mindless fun.

Doctor Spaceman posted:Bill Murray is annoying and the only time he works well in a film is when they lean into that. Murray has always had a smart rear end, passive-aggressive edge that has been used to great effect in several of his best movies - Stripes, Groundhog Day, What About Bob, Ghostbusters. It tends to be such a consistent trait of his characters that I sometimes wonder how much of it is an act.

We also watched some other show with a really weird name that I can't even begin to spell, but it was about little kids in school and their stupid adventures. I hated those shows more than most anything, and even still I'd rather sit through those in their entirety again than sit through one Captain America movie.

Flamethrower. Set an uncooked steak on some pavement and shoot flames at it for a few seconds. Then dribble with ketchup.

You should at least baste good steaks with butter and herbs if you want it to be really good. also medium rare is the perfect temperature. The only people who think meat that is still cool in the center is good is people who are overcompensating trying to be ron swanson.

There was a time when I thought this had to be true - then I met my hippie-ish MIL, who pretty much likes her steak to be bleeding for no discernible reason. It would almost be better if she were trying to be Ron. That, at least, would be understandable. The worst part is that now my 14yo wants them the same way and I just can’t bring myself to undercook a steak.
