Somehow with the distraction of the green I never realized how large those fake chompers are. Must've been pretty tough to act through those.

I read somewhere originally he'd only wear the teeth in non-speaking shots but Jim managed to talk his way through them anyway.

I haven't seen The Mask in years, was it actually good or will my childhood nostalgia betray me?

If you still like goofy live-action Looney Tunes stuff like Gremlins 2 or Small Soldiers and can stand Jim Carrey’s shtick, you’ll probably still like it. I’ve only seen it as an adult and I liked it a lot.

This trailer was probably posted before, but I saw it before Hotel Artemis today and it only took like 15 seconds before I went "seriously?". And then it continued for two more minutes.

He managed to act with his upper lip glued to his gumline (Firemarshall Bill), so I imagine he just Looney Tunes'd up up to compensate.

That he was intelligible is pretty cool.

Each of which got Saturday morning cartoons that all ran at the same time. At least The Mask and Ace Ventura did, because O can remember they had a crossover episode.

Can't wait for all the arguing about politics (or G Gundam) this will lead to.

edit:
Lasse Halstrom and Joe Johnston will share a directing credit for Disney's The Nutcracker and The Four Realms, a rare occurance. Halstrom finished filming in January 2017 but Johnston directed the last December.

https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/h..._source=twitter

It seems odd that Disney is not promoting this as heavily as its other blockbusters despite releasing it this year, despite looking as elaborate and effects-heavy as Cinderella or Beauty & The Beast. Maybe because it's not a remake of one its animations?

Legendary Pictures was the studio that got bought by the Chinese, right? Nationalism aside, Gundam has been popular throughout Asia, so it makes sense for this to (finally) happen. Also, I think Legendary is distributed by Warner Brothers, who produced Ready Player One, so I'm guessing there was some behind the scenes stuff going on to get that cameo in.

Now let's see if this actually produces something and not another G-Saviour.

From Halstrom's statement it seems like a somewhat different situation from other recent examples of this, but has replacing directors become a lot more common lately or I have just not noticed before?

I mean, if you go back there's movies like Spartacus and Island of Dr. Moreau but those happened closer to the beginning of filming. With Bohemian Rhapsody, The Nutcracker, Solo, and Justice League it sounds as though the films were almost finished when other directors were brought in.

It kinda blows my mind conservative media has largely ignored the Purge movies. It's as explicitly anti right wing as a movie can possibly get. And this new one takes the explicit social commentary to 11.

I honesly thought the 3rd one was the best. This one doesn't do anything new but it does call out the NRA by name several times.

They're popular in that everyone knows about them but to get complained about by conservative fuckers you have to be a megahype movie like a Star Wars flick or Dark Knight Rises which drew the ire of conservatives rallied by Rush Limbaugh because the villain Bane was clearly named after Bain Capital.

I remember they were huge when Gundam Wing was on Toonami I had a bunch despite not ever watching the show because robots are cool and we didn't get Cartoon Network.

Also bring back Zoids because I want to embrace nostalgia.

The purge movies are almost a fantasy to many conservatives if only it was a night where they could kill but couldnt be killed back, atleast based on the sheer amount of "I wish I could use *group I dont like* as target practice" posts in the conservative forward thread in dnd.

Though after the movie came out, Limbaugh changed his tune and loved it because his interpretation was that Batman was supposed to be Romney and the villains were Occupy Wall Street.

They'll probably retire Narnia as well since the last two books take the series from "metaphor where the lion is jesus" to outright "The Lion explicitly tells the cast he is the for-real Jesus and start sentencing people to christian hell after defeating muslim satan"

Pretty much, the third one was released back in 2010 and failed to make much of an impression on anyone, coming 27th at the domestic box office for the year and making less than Clash of the Titans and The Last Airbender but slightly more than Yogi Bear.

The first one back in 2005, however, was a huge hit and beat Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, War of the Worlds, King Kong and Batman Begins to get second place behind Revenge of the Sith and ever since the production companies got a taste of that sweet sweet cashola you can bet they'll keep chasing it. They know from experience that the franchise can be bigger than Harry Potter, Spielberg/Cruise, King Kong and superheroes if only they can get the mix juuuuust right so here we go for a 4th movie, except that 'The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe' is the only book in the series that most people remember and almost no one can even name any of the other books let alone give two shits about them so the response is pretty much guaranteed to be a giant :shrug: again.

They've never actually seen the movies, which iirc aren't subtle about purge night being a thinly veiled excuse for the wealthy to murder the poor, and usually focus on protagonists turning the tables on the wealthy and powerful. I assume anyway, I haven't seen them either.

One of the producers of The Wolf Of Wall Street has been questioned by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Agency for 4 days straight. He is suspected of using tax money received through his mother and stepfather to fund the movie along with Dumb and Dumber To and buying a number of expensive properties in the US in a case also being investigated by the American Dpertment of Justice. His stepfather, the former Prime Minister of Malaysia, was recently arrested for corruption as well.
