I can't wait to see the extremely r-rated scene where Kovacs fucks the same woman (kind of? maybe) in multiple sleeves at the same time

I'm just happy they even tried to adapt the thing. Looking forward to seeing where they take it.


e: when he's in the female sleeve Kovacs specifically mentions how being a woman is subtly different, like more sensitive to touch etc which comes in "handy" for the torturers.

I'm not familiar with the source of whatever you're talking about, so when you mentioned Kovacs doing this I immediately pictured Rorschach from Watchmen which made everything far more amusing.

I used to have and cherish a shareware CDROM called Waycool that played the "Shall We Play A Game" every time you booted it up. Castle of the Winds is the game I remember most fondly, also CliffyB's lovely Dare to Dream adventure game. And Microman! Fuckin' Microman. Plus a really great Battleship knockoff that had animated pixel art of all the ships getting blown up.

I spent most of that trailer wondering who the tighty whitey kid was because I couldn't place it at all, and it's the main kid from Super 8. And now I feel bad because I thought he and the rest of that cast was quite good. I don't think any of them besides the one with the braces ever did anything.

Altered Carbon is an extremely good far future cyberpunk detective revenge story. The Kovacs mentioned is Takeshi Kovacs who is a body swapping ex-special forces mercenary type. I think he'd get along pretty well with Rorschach Kovacs, personally.

Ladies and gentlemen, the Den of thieves saga has come to an end. We were so close to Bad Justice, there was a small side step to Know your enemy, but a decision has been made. I proudly present:



Insert obligatory "What are we? Some kind of..." - joke here. It's the French title as well! Please note that we've used another font and another colour, bringing this closer to a C-movie than it's ever been.

Moving onto 12 Strong now. We'll call that one Operation: 12 Strong. I'm not joking, we're back in the 90ies...

Are your bosses just huge trolls? What do they think is accomplished by changing those names?

Also why is there a colon after Operation? Isn't that supposed to be the name of the operation or is the movie called operation and the subtitle is 12 strong? Should have just called it Horse Soldiers. I doubt German audiences are that interested in another generic murrica war movie.

We're all going to experience changes in our life but only the best of us will qualify for front row seats.

The title Criminal Squad made me wonder what Gangster Squad (2013, Ryan Gosling) was called in Germany. Turns out the title is actually unchanged. It must have fit right into the comfort zone of English titles for a foreign market.

The last couple of weeks felt like a parody of working. Constantly wondering if we're secretly being filmed.

There is, yes. I don't know why, but I'm making sure to include it in every little piece of conversation about the movie. Question: Do you think operation is pronounced English or German in this case? And is it "twelve" or "zwölf"?

Proteus Jones posted:

...bike shedding...

That's a term I didn't know and holy poo poo does it fit perfectly onto what's been happening around here for the last year. It's the missing puzzle piece in explaining what's wrong.

Yeah, I think that title played a huge part on this decision. It bombed here, though, so it doesn't make too much sense either way.

She's part of the only really good part of that movie: the love story. "In the late 1970s Midwest, a budding junior high school filmmaker falls head over heels for the daughter of the man who accidentally killed his mother" on its own is a much better movie than "that first bit, but also an alien escapes a train wreck and starts stealing people because... it's lonely?".
