I thought new ghostbusters was fine. Certainly no worse than the second one. I also adored the first and third thirds of the latest American Godzilla. The middle was kind of dull filler, but like that’s most Godzilla movies.

The Godzilla reboot was spiritually faithful to the originals in that you go in wanting a fun movie about monsters and you get stuck watching bland human characters spout exposition to one another. The climax was really good, though.

I liked the new Robocop, but it was still completely unnecessary as the original is still really good and remarkably undated for being an 80’s film. Being set in a near future that never really existed* helps I guess.

*outside of Detroit, where it’s pretty much a documentary.

The first scene in the new RoboCop is the US in Iran as part of "Operation Free Tehran" and I found that so jarring I couldn't enjoy the rest of the movie

It was usually the owner forgetting that there was a wedding that needed popcorn.

Or the Quicken Loans arena ordering 200 gallons of popcorn due in two days. It took about an hour to do 10 gallons.

Eat a bag of dicks you soulless animal, Ghostbusters 2 was a charming movie for people of all ages to enjoy with eye-popping special effects, rapier wit, and wonderful character moments! It's a solid eight out of ten you horrible fucker, eight out of ten!

EDIT: (I'm being facetious, but I really do love Ghostbusters 2, it is a fun movie.)

This but the Super Mario Bros movie. It's awful, everyone but Leguizamo hated working on it. And I love it dearly. I still own my VHS copy, and the only reason I don't have it on blu-ray is because I don't have a player.

I'm pretty sure people only like Ghostbusters because of nostalgia. I never saw it until recently and watched 1 and 2 together and they were equally okay but not, like, hilarious.

The funniest Bill Murray movie is What About Bob.

In Miyamoto said it wasn’t true and the movie was wrong, but in 2015 he admitted that the brothers’ last name is in fact, Mario.

So that masterpiece has contributed to the Mario canon.

Bob Hoskins loving despised that movie and I remember reading that it drove him to drink between filming sessions.

I mean, more than Hoskins probably already did.

Wikipedia posted:

In a 2007 interview, Hoskins spoke critically of Super Mario Bros., saying that it was "the worst thing I ever did" and that "the whole experience was a nightmare".[37] In another interview with The Guardian, Hoskins was asked, "What is the worst job you've done?", "What has been your biggest disappointment?", and "If you could edit your past, what would you change?" His answer to all three was Super Mario Bros.

all the right wing pro fascist authoritarians. it is a meme among the alt right types "free helicopter rides" that references augusto pinochet and other south american dictators who would execute leftists, dissdents, journalists etc. in many creative ways such as throwing them from aircraft over the ocean or jungle

erik erikson is saying he wishes there were more murderous dictators in south america, who would execute more people

erik erikson is also the man who forgot about an interview he was scheduled to be on, left his family at a restaurant, and ran a quarter mile home then complained on twitter about getting blisters, in case you're wondering where he would be placed among internet tough guys

Was this contract signed in blood? Was it signed under duress? Im finding myself viscerally interested in the events that lead up to the signing of paperwork that bars one from "working in gourmet popcorn". Who enforces this? Is there a database shared by the international corn poppers guild?

Oh no, you didnt try to gently caress one of those old timey popcorn machines on the fancy cart, did you?

:same: I get an endless amount of poo poo for loving this movie and I just take it because I deserve it. The movie is objectively awful and melted Bob Hoskins' liver. I bought a new DVD player (in 2001, LOL) because I found a random two pack of Super Mario Brothers and The Pest. That was a fun weekend.
