RagnarokAngel posted:That was always there. Luke's body language of fighting with 2 hands and being aggressive, while Vader fights 1 handed and just deflects every attack, not even bothering to take the offensive until later in the fight. During the third phase of the duel Vader clearly lost his patience and just went crazy on Luke. He dives in out of nowhere and starts making vicious two handed swings in stark opposition to his earlier moves. It's a three punch combo. First he shows how Luke's lack of patience cannot hope to win against Vader's calculated defense. Then he shows his dominance in force mastery by whacking Luke around with boxes, and then finally he channels his inner rage and aggression into a wrecking ball Luke's own aggression could never stand up to.

Saw Black Panther for a second time and realised the intro sequence with the little boy asking to hear the story of where they come from, followed by the animated explanation of how Wakanda came to be is Erik asking his father. It's the beginning of him learning to hate his people for hiding and being passive while the world around them found new ways to be terrible. I loving loved this movie.

One of the earliest shows I remember watching with my family on the Learning Channel back in the 90s was a surgery program where they went super in depth on this one girl's skull and face surgery that basically involved sliding her face down like a rubber mask.

Dunno if it's necessarily subtle, but I appreciated a moment in John Dies at the End. I liked that instead of going with the whole "We are Legion" thing that most movies go with when you have a bunch of demons/otherworldly beings in one host, it chose instead to have a brief conversation. "So, what should I call you?" "Shitload, cause there's a shitload of us in here."

The other videos in the compilation were funnier, they were a bunch of dumbass basejumpers loving up their 'chutes and bouncing off cliff faces making funny noises. The interview with the wingsuiter was actually pretty interesting, he talked about how he knew he was 100% going to die and all that was left was to choose whether he went slow or fast, and also about the euphoria he experienced as he felt his body shutting down. https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3747078&pagenumber=726&perpage=40#post468973243

More the entire movie but holy poo poo Coco's ending just destroyed me. I always like when initially comedic moments are paid off during the emotional climax and this movie had some particularly good payoffs.

rydiafan posted:When Die Hard came out and changed the way protagonists took damage. In the original Die Hard he took damage and it looked like it hurt. Like Bruce Willis’ ability to look bloody is his best acting skill. I’m not sure you can blame protagonist invulnerability on him. Then again there was that one film where he was dead most of it and no one noticed.

The last movie to hit me anywhere near that hard was Paranorman, which I still cannot watch without crying during the climax. When I showed it to a friend, he cried there too.

Something interesting I noticed a few years ago watching the original Disney Beauty and the Beast was that under the beasts animation in certain frames he actually looks a lot like the prince Adam as realised at the end of the film, largely with how the bridge of his snout often forms a similar silhouette to Adam's nose. I thought that that was kind of interesting. It's a complete transformation but still based on the structure of his original face.

The moral of Beauty and the Beast seems to be "don't be a jerk to strangers, because some of them are bigger jerks with magic and a seething hatred of servants". The whole "don't judge a book by its cover" theme is very secondary.

Krispy Wafer posted:What exactly is Immortan Joe's facemask? I mean it's a respirator I guess, but he can open the mouth and when it's pulled off it takes a big chunk of his face with it - which isn't how facemasks work. If he wore it all the time I could maybe understand that, but they show him putting it on in the morning. I think the supplemental texts mention something about how Joe doesn't need the respirator, but he and his sons all have breathing apparatuses so that they can have pure, clean air--another way to set themselves on a higher tier than the common folk. But yes, it is also obviously an intimidation/coolness thing, like the fake muscle armor.

I heard the armor described as bulletproof plexiglass. Similar to his windshield. Which kinda sorta explains why the old lady maybe didn't shoot him with her shotgun at the beginning.

We were have our regularly scheduled bi-weekly argument about Man Of Steel in CD and I went back and watched some scenes and was reminded of some subtle moments:Snowglobe of Doom posted:The scenes from his childhood that are interspersed throughout the film aren't flashbacks, they're the memories that he's experiencing in the present. (Sidenote: the very first memory is of Martha Kent instructing him to find a "quiet place in the ocean" if the world gets too much for him to bear. He tried to do do that literally by getting a job on a deep sea fishing trawler but it didn't work out. We're shown that he's trying to follow his parents' advice as best he can but it's not working out for him.) I'm not really a fan of the film or the DCEU films in general but I have to admit it had a lot of subtle moments like those.

The whole "don't judge a book by its cover" theme is very secondary. These quotes are in my mind because Nancy Pelosi recently spent 8 hours lecturing on the status of the DREAMERS in the House, and she quoted the parable of the sheep and the goats. Book of Matthew, the bible. posted:31When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, He will sit on His glorious throne. 32All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate the people one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33He will place the sheep on His right and the goats on His left. And the lesson from both is an illustration of the golden rule, a valuable lesson to teach in any story.

The last couple of things I want to praise about Coco: I loved the animation on the skeletons, especially Hector. The way he kept reassembling himself during La Poco Loco was hilarious and really energetic. Also the way the songs were used were great too, they weren't just sung for the most part - they properly advanced the situation, especially during the climax when The matriarch finds her way onto the stage by accident and is practically forced to perform with Hector accompanying - it's not just her singing and Hector playing, she's using her dancing to evade guards on the stage trying to take the important item she is trying to protect away, and then the villain comes in turning it into a duet that turns a tango into a metaphorical and literal power struggle. Such a good sequence. Honestly I think part of the reason it hit me particularly hard it because it was reminiscent of what my Grandma is going through - since grandpa died she's not as energetic as she used to be and she had to be put in a home to be looked after as she has major mobility problems. She's also losing her short term memory pretty badly, although long term seems to still be intact. BioEnchanted has a new favorite as of 10:56 on Feb 25, 2018 |

Case in point: the shower scene in Psycho. You see the knife; you see Janet Leigh; you see the blood. But you never see Leigh being stabbed. However, if you show that scene to a hundred people who haven't seen it before probably half of them will say they did - and oddly, as many as 20 will remember seeing the blood as red when the movie is in black and white.

And yes, I know about half of it is supposed to be fake, but I'm not really interested in trying to figure out which half.

I, Butthole posted:it's a movie, it's all fake wikipedia posted:In their book Killing for Culture, authors David Kerekes and David Slater note that the nadir of the movie is the inclusion of an extreme fatal accident; "the shattered remains of a cyclist are seen under a semi-tractor trailer. The camera pans long enough to capture paramedics scooping up blood clots, brain matter, and clumps of hair from the tarmac – this incident is authentic and culled from newsreels."
