Cythereal posted:It's also great because I've seen that chain of events play out more than once in real life. Manager A learns there's a potentially serious problem with Project X that's a huge deal for the company and potentially a complete game-changer. But because Project X has been through such a troubled history already and Manager A's position is so fragile, he decides to hide the problem and fires or reassigns everyone who could have found the problem. Manager A does not tell his more highly-placed bureaucratic rival Manager B because if Manager B knew, Manager A would be shitcanned for mismanaging the project so badly. Manager B subsequently shitcans Manager A anyway, thereby ensuring Project X has a serious problem that now no one knows about until it blows up in their faces. This is so true, but you skipped over the attempt to by Manager A to regain control of the Project X by going to Manager B's Boss, only to get rebuffed by the Boss with a threat of getting shitcanned by him personally if they don't work this out.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is getting movie rebooted again! https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/new-ninja-turtles-movie-works-1121467 quote:Paramount is developing a new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie and has hired Andrew Dodge, the writer behind the Jason Bateman comedy Bad Words, to pen the script. I don't know how this BRANDS BRANDS BRANDS thing is going to work out for Paramount as that often means more bland muck but maybe we'll get lucky. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows was shockingly good fun, watch it if you liked the original cartoon! Pirate Jet posted:Rogue One was really awesome, though. Truth, I rewatch it more than any non-OG Wars flick

Vandar posted:I was just completely confused by his appearance, to be honest. Here's a simple version: Mother Talzim is a Force Witch from Dathomir. She had 3 sons. One died, one stayed with him, and one was 'adopted' by Palpatine. He became Darth Maul. After Episode 1, Maul's anger kept him alive and he ended up on a junkyard planet where went insane. He also built himself robot spider legs. Talzim sensed Maul being alive and sent her other surviving son, Savage, to find him. Talzim healed Maul's mind and gave him new better robot goat legs. Maul then takes Savage as his apprentice. What happens next is series of Maul, Savage, Palpatine, Count Dooku and a new apprentice named Asaaj pretending to work with and double-crossing each other because that is how Sith politics work. Anakin and Obi Wan also gets involved from time to time. Failing to get anywhere with just the two of them, Maul and Savage joins up with a group of Mandalorian fundamentalist militants known as the Death Watch. Their leader gives Maul newer better robot legs that looks humanoid. Together they take over multiple criminal groups which Maul unites under the Crimson Dawn syndicate. Then they take over Mandalore, because Death Watch hates that Mandalore became a neutral pacifist world in The Clone Wars. Then Maul wins a duel against the Death Watch leader, who he executes, and became leader of Mandalore. Palpatine then decided to remind Maul who's in charge. Both Maul and Savage fights Palpatine. Palpatine kills Savage but keeps Maul alive. Palpatine then uses Maul to lure Talzim out of hiding and kills her, leaving Maul on Dathomir. Without his mother and Mandalore, Maul still has Crimson Dawn and that is where he is in Solo. Tars Tarkas posted:Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is getting movie rebooted again! There have been so many versions of TMNT that another reboot does not seem all that weird to me. They even have a new Nickelodeon cartoon coming soon, with the each of the turtles now being a different species (Raph is a snapping turtle and Donnie is a softshell) and April back to being black. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0r7lVa0Irsg

Superfly is way good but will probably be around for another week (it will be at the theaters near my place), Gotti seems like a specific kind of pain but maybe not the kind you want to spend effort renting

I really think the problems with Solo are pretty specific to Solo itself, and not indicative of something gone horribly wrong with the Star Wars brand. To me it does make sense to take a breather and make sure you've got all the issues figured out, and don't make the same mistakes for the next films.

She looks around and sees that she's in the middle of a forest. She doesn't know where she is. She can no longer feel the Force. She hears someone approaching her from behind and whirls to face him. It's Terry O'Quinn. "We're still on the island, Jack," he intones. Rey looks down. She realises is now Matthew Fox. She reaches into her pocket and finds a drawing of a white tulip.

I watched Gotti it wasn't nearly as camp as I'd hoped. More disjointed than anything else. It constantly jumps back and forth between timelines it might as well be back to the future. Pitbull is oddly not the weirdest musical choice. There's a lot of 80s pop hits that come in on tough guy mudderfucker scenes that just an odd choice. Not to mention Gotti Jr. being a 21 year old looking dude playing a middle aged man also the end credits: "this movie is dedicated to Frank Gotti" the kid who got hit by a car while riding his bike and then the guy driving disappeared dont know nothin about it what

Hint: There is apparently a scene where a dinosaur jumps out a window just in time to avoid an explosion. Not only does it jump out just in time to avoid the explosion but it does that after seeing a gas tank leaking and seeing the "warning: flammable" sign on the tanks which implies it knows how to read and comprehend chemistry. There is also a scene where a dinosaur is pretending to be asleep to fool a villainous character and it actually smirks to itself once the character approaches it. The movie doesn't give a gently caress about anything.

The Jurassic Park movies have hinted that the raptors are at least chimp-level intelligent, to the point that they have their own language. In JW, the I.rex and the raptors were even talking and arguing with each other.

Well, in Fallen Kingdom they use the cloning technology to bring the dead kid of Hammond's ex-partner back. So, uh, the movie already out-stupided you.Alan Smithee posted:so without reading spoilers that's a movie pass I wish JP had gone the way of DTV sequels that just gave us stripped-down, simple narratives. I'd watch a survival horror movie about someone just having to get from one side of the island to the other side to catch a boat. Kind of like a decent version of JPIII but without the baggage of having no script 6 weeks out from filming. feedmyleg fucked around with this message at 11:38 on Jun 21, 2018 |
