Rhyno posted:He wanted the writers kept off the set and Reynolds wanted them there so it was a bit more than just script, he and Reynolds did not see eye to eye. Any other differences between their respective visions? Considering what Miller did after, I can imagine that tim Miller was looking to turn the sequel into a more grim and serious affair.

The same one did both. Neveldine did The Vatican Tapes which I have not seen. Heard it wasn’t great though.

Speaking of Crank, are there any good X-Men ajacent characters he could play? Given that he's still wants to do Crank 3, it seems the Deadpool movies would be right up his alley.

Happy Noodle Boy posted:They were obviously reeled in for Ghost Rider because that’s the tamest poo poo they’ve done and it still managed to have glimmers of greatness. "Glimmers of Greatness" is practically the definition of the character. He's nobody's favorite but most folks are, like, "yeah, that's pretty bad rear end. Neat.". I can't imagine trying to write him though, especially on film.

Dan Didio posted:I bought Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within on DVD because going to see it in cinemas in Scotland was one of the last times I spent with my dad. We had a brain wrap which ended with that movie falling off the platter into the floor. It took an hour and a half to respool, and to repair it I had to splice about six seconds out of one of the key scenes. Not a single customer even so much as asked if anything was wrong with it. That movie was butt, and at the same time I’m glad you have good memories of your dad to go with it.

Roz from Frazier flirts with handsome Steve Buscemi and the space military fights ghosts from another planet. I'm kind of curious what you had to cut out, but I imagine it was later in the film and everyone was asleep by that point.

Statham should play one of the Japanese characters C.B. Cebulski invented.

I only ever saw it once but I thought it was fine. Good action, good voice acting, plot was not difficult to follow. It just wasn't super interesting or anything.

FF: Spirits Within is one of those movies that people find boring and terrible but which I secretly enjoy. I guess the games trained me well. EDIT: Looking at the trailers, boy have the graphics aged poorly. Fangz fucked around with this message at 14:02 on Jun 20, 2018 |

Ironically fans of the games were the most disappointed, because the movie had almost nothing to do with the games. Like I think there's a space ghost that looks sort of like a chocobo at one point. That's it, the rest is just a much worse version of Aliens.

They use a few of the common series names, like Cid/Sid, Hein and Gaia. That's about it though.

Yeah no final fantasy game had anything to do with another except a few recurring creature designs and character names

But thinking back I had only played FF7 and no other one. I didn't realise that a big part of the FF series is that each game is it's own story. And that the movie is in keeping with that spirit of the games*. * = Ha! A pun!.

I don't think the film like directly adapts any of the games but I think it keeps up with the sort of general tone of the games. Vague stuff about souls, evil military, big world destroying alien thing, etc.

Going full sci-fi was too big of a departure from the games probably. Even with the other common elements.
|
# ? Jun 20, 2018 14:40 |

Yeah the games (up until that point) were OT Star Wars but that movie was more like an episode of Star Trek TNG. It didn't feel like an adaptation/continuation of theme even with what little it had in common. I was extra bummed because I thought the act of distancing yourself from the source material was a purely American move.

It turns out she liked it? Yeah it's kinda hosed up especially with more modern sensibilities. I think probably 5 seconds after you turned it off she basically shouts "Actually this is hot do it I really like this!" But it never should have gotten that far in the first place. In Crank 2 he molests and dry humps an old lady, because she is wearing a wool sweater and he needs the static electricity or his artificial heart will stop

I took my visiting family members that were my age to to the movie, the most distinct thing I remember about the movie is the epic level of embarrasment at taking them to such a bad movie. Tried to watch parts of it semi-recently, it's unwatchable.

It's modern in the sense that Hollywood actually (wants to appear to) give a poo poo about that kind of thing now and it would never make it past rewrites if they were making it today.
