SMG is the only good thing about CineD and shitposting or not he's correct about Battleship and Avengers The Avengers movies have absolutely dogshit direction and cinematography, they're shot like a loving TV show with more expensive CGI. They are on pretty much every level bad movies, there's nothing remotely interesting about them and they barely rise to the level of competent film making.

Battleship’s honestly incredibly good compared to the average summer blockbuster. It’s not classic cinema, but it’s thematically coherent, looks like a movie more than a TV show, the interplay between the leads is varied and funny, the jokes themselves are varied in form and delivery, the cast is diverse on gender and race (that this has to be considered a point in a major Hollywood movie’s favor is... sad), and they drift a loving battleship. It’s the sort of movie that if it came out in the late 90s or a time before we were dunking full-on into whatever abattoir that 2010s blockbuster cinema became as everyone chased the Marvel dollar train, it’d probably have been a big hit and looked back on pretty fondly instead of being a “lol, you made a movie out of a board game” joke. Marvel gets Tadanobu Asano, and they do nothing with him for two movies and murk him to show how dangerous Cate Blanchett is; Battleship gets him, puts him as co-lead of the movie and gives him an actual arc and plenty of heroic moments where he’s shown to be the more capable, mature leader - just not a guy who would go “the only way out of this is to drift a battleship” because he’s not an insane person who would think of that.

that’s kinda been around already: After BBC Sherlock ended and everyone hated it a bunch of fans developed a theory that there were clues within the last special that hinted toward a secret special that would be the canonical ending to the show

Farm Frenzy posted:excited for the idea of fan conspiracies about secret cuts becoming a thing Folding ideas did a pretty good recent video about how director's cuts in contemporary blockbusters both do and do not exist, because shots that didn't make it into the final cut have tons of unfinished CGI in them. To get a director's cut produced would mean going back and paying millions to a CG studio just to get the new cut refinished.

I don't really hate disingenuous posters like SMG, but it's weird that people would be acolytes of him, it'd be like if a bunch of people followed around Kawalimus in TFF and insisted along with him that the Ravens are Actually poo poo this year. Then again, I follow getfiscal on Twitter, so I shouldn't judge.

I loved the cinematography, I feel like I’ve never seen anything like it. it hits the lord of the flies references a bit too on the nose but the hostage’s plight was terrifying and moving. as a piece about how hosed up civil war is for innocents its really depressing. there's no outright statement that the US is involved in whatever conflict is occurring but the hostages nationality and US history in Colombia are hard to ignore

thinking about all of the different versions of the joker in films since the most recent movie is getting buzz over potential nominations the least plausible part of The Dark Knight is that the boat of white people didn't mash the button on their detonator before the captain was even finished explaining the rules to the trap. gently caress it, the captain would have just slammed it himself as he read the rules in his head
