I want to believe Shane Black made a bad Predator movie on purpose after getting mad at the studio. 😢

Also I hosed up at some point because I got that Prodos Titty Predator as a Facebook ad and occasional Raging Heroes ads

Oh poo poo, I just listened to the Movie Mastery about that one, too!

W: Predator 2018, not Gremlins 2. Although they should do that as well (or, if they have, I should listen to it).

I know this is supposed to be about the wall "art" but I can't help but feel like she's thinking "oh gently caress my foot slipped" and the facial expression seems to bear that out.

the miniature itself being like that doesnt help


some folks get more creative:


from the same painter, Infinity inside jokes get weird:

quote:

This is a Nomad hero of the Strikezone: Wotan online campaign, for Infinity the Game. The mighty Dong Peyote, inspired by an abrupt appearance of the Don Peyote Repurposed Freighter, shaped like… well – it looks like a dong. Plunged balls deep into the enemy lines, the Dong Peyote is a sight to behold! His incredible feats of manliness are well known in the entire Human Sphere! This is a hero the all Nomads deserve!

ASK ME ABOUT HOW SCOTLAND'S PROPOSED TRANS LEGISLATION IS DIVISIVE AS HELL BECAUSE IT IS SO SWEEPING THAT IT COULD BE POTENTIALLY ABUSED AT A TIME WHERE THE LACK OF SAFETY FOR WOMEN HAS BEEN SO GLARING
On Predator 2018; I think they started off with a desire to emulate the original movie, then moved the setting to mostly suburban America kinda like the second movie (but not really) then decided to put together the A-Team if the whole crew was a more murdery Murdoch vs the Predator, threw in a surprising amount of jokes, only to decide they needed to make Predators more bad rear end than before so did the gene editing super preds thing and finally decided to setup a sequel with that final scene of sheer wtf stupid shark jumping.

In other words, they should have decided what the film is meant to be then make that. Also, the CGI was bad.

And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom
The only thing worse than the CGI was the editing. There were moments I thought I'd blacked out and missed 5 minutes of the film because the cuts between scenes/shots were so jarring.

I think it's less likely a series of weird sequential fuckups and more that Shane Black tried to make as deliberately weird and audience-assumption-challenging Predator movie as he made an Iron Man movie, and then test audiences went "What the hell is this?" and the studio went "Right, it's testing badly. Hack it to as short a running time as possible so theaters can have more showings, so we make a smaller loss on opening weekend, since word of mouth is going to kill it after that."

(This could also explain the bad CG, as they'd have test audience reactions before the CG is finished, and expecting a loss might result in them cutting the SFX budget mid-process.)

Good brushes cost money. That being said, W&N's have been having some serious QC issues lately, and brush tips are splitting a lot. I don't know if they are cheaping out on the sable or what, but the quality isn't what it used to be. Broken Toad is supposed to have some good brushes, but they are all out of stock due to Russian sanctions/shortages.

Yeah my last W&N is a bit fucky and it splits. Thought I might just have a dodgy one. Think I may get some of those artis opus ones.

Apparently there are counterfeit brushes out there now, so that's also a possibility.

Indeed. There’s counterfeit W&NS7 brushes being put out by various online sellers, and the way Amazon works now, it’s not possible to ensure you’re not getting a 3rd party seller when you buy from them. The only way to ensure you’re getting a real one is to find an art store that buys from a reputable source.

I got some W&Ns a few months ago that had poor tips and splitting issues. I bought them from blick so they sent me replacements, which were actually quite good, but didn't even look like the same size/model as the originals despite having the same info printed on the handle.

Anyway if you're going to buy W&Ns make sure it's from a reputable dealer who will sort QA issues for you and not some shady amazon marketplace store.

The issue with Amazon is that when third parties send items in for them to stock/distribute if it's the same "item" they get inventoried together. So you can buy from a reputable seller, but get someone elses fakes put into the fulfillment chain. Pretty common on any name brand item that China fakes.
