Only a matter of time before we see CGI Steve Irwin. Or, just Irwin's corpse that was freshly dug up.

The U.S. is tottering, weighing in at only 44 ½ states, its mass eaten away by Mexico, its interior rotted out by floods of immigrants, by loss of faith in a free-market economy, by national healthcare and a myriad of other entitlement programs, by the global-warming hoax and green-energy boondoggles, and by drugs, the most pervasive being "flashback," which allows its users to visit their pasts in a dream state. It's a bad, bad time, and its fatal origins lie, we are instructed, with the Obama presidency, its spendthrift domestic programs and pusillanimous foreign policy.

Proteus Jones posted:Welcome to the post-9/11 work of Dan Simmons. Slight appending there. I can't recall any islamophobia in Hyperion but I also haven't revisited it after he lost his mind to look too deeply into the subtext of it all, aside from a desire to bone John Keats? Although iirc, the first half of Olympos was written pre-9/11 and the second half was written post 9/11 and it was very, very obvious there.

In hindsight, the portrayal of Muslims in Hyperion is kinda eeeh (in a nutshell: "generally backward but benign except for a few religious extremists"). But it's in a context where most religions are at most fads because Earth got sucked into a black hole a couple centuries before the books. And then the sequels' main villains are the Catholic Church. One of the first examples of them being villains? Rounding up a Muslim village. He also clearly always had a thing about Jews/israel (it's hard to see a difference in his books) and the Holocaust. I can only see it as a seed of bigotry always being there until he started seeing Muslims as the new Nazis. It's me, I'm the big fan horrified by the guy's descent into racism.

I'm a little bummed that we're not getting this movie now. I mean poo poo, that cast is killer. All it's missing is Nicole Kidman and Cate Blanchett a joke about one person I was forgetting was gonna go here but do you know how many great Aussie actors there are? A bunch. Props, Australia.

Geez-louise that looks awful. All the "fun" and one-liners feel so forced. Though I felt the same about the first one, and this just feels like more of the same.

Looks like a blast much like the first one was. I can't get enough of Marvel movies, makes me feel like a kid at the movies again.

I bet they filmed it in California and just CGIed in kangaroos and poo poo to make it look like Australia, or they bought up some stock footage and greenscreened Danny McBride into it. Yes, I'm certain that the Australian tourism board shot it in California edit: clown shoes posted:At this point I will see anything A24 puts out. holy poo poo ALFbrot fucked around with this message at 16:55 on Jan 30, 2018 |

Mute definitely looks bigger and a bit cheaper than I imagined when I read the script a few years back. Okay trailer, a shame that word from early test screenings is so mixed. Will be a good come down after I binge watch Altered Carbon.
