The way that they start that in a tight two shot and then cut away for the reveal to show her impaled with a, for lack of a better term comical, amount of debris is the kind of visual move that reads like comedy even when it's intended dead serious.

I suppose I now have a reason to find it.

I was crying from laughter when I saw Suicide Squad on opening weekend in a packed theatre. I just couldn't handle the bad 1992-era Peaceful Warrior poo poo from El Diablo culminating in him channeling his rage to become a 10 foot tall aztec flame skeleton. God, that poo poo still cracks me up at how loving low key racist it came off. The only thing that could have made it better was if he was able to summon a flaming lo-rider of some kind and pulled out akimbo glocks.

YaketySass posted:Haven't seen Ant-Man and people never talk much about it, why is it so bad? IMO Ant-Man 1 ain’t bad but 2 is so incompetently made. Awful editing, awful direction, flat cinematography, the writing really feels like they weren’t planning on Civil War happening. And as a smaller nitpick, I hate how they keep retconning The Quantum Realm. Janet’s original fate of being forced to shrink forever was horrifying, made her sacrifice more meaningful, and if they were gonna make 2 about saving her then that would’ve been an actually cool scenario. You gotta catch up to where she is size-wise, and then match her rate of shrinking, and then fix her suit, and that’d be a cool set piece! But now it’s just some alternate dimension bullshit. And then they add nonsense time travel poo poo to it for Endgame.

Timby posted:Iron Man 2, Age of Ultron and Thor 2 are right there. I can remember things I liked from all of those. Ant Man has nothing going for it, unless seeing Paul Rudd's face in frame is enough to get you through a movie. YaketySass posted:Haven't seen Ant-Man and people never talk much about it, why is it so bad? It's super boring and has the most generic villain possible, and its overt attempts at comedy are mistimed and lifeless and go on for way too long. The funniest thing in the movie is the toy train thing that's in the trailer, and it's better edited in the trailer. This was once an edgar wright film, and now it's just this lifeless husk with a shiny outfit. And some people will gladly claim they're happy he got the boot because his version of the script had fewer scenes where Evangeline Lily complains a lot and doesn't do anything.

https://www.caligulammxx.com (possibly  )E. Elias Merhige (director of Begotten and Shadow of the Vampire) is supervising a reconstruction of Tinto Brass' Caligula meant to resemble the original Gore Vidal screenplay. All the original camera negatives and trims were found not long ago. I haven't seen the versions on video, but this seems like an interesting project.

Egbert Souse posted:The first time I realized I had a dark sense of humor was when Leo sinks in Titanic. I was in the theater and started laughing because in my head, Rose letting him sink after saying "I'll never let go" made me think she lost grip. Gonz posted:I laughed out loud when the guy fell off the ship and his head went DOOOOOIIIIIIING on the propeller. Oh man. I was also saying to my sister "Why did she just let him go? She said she wouldn't let go?". I have found my people. Timby posted:How could you not laugh? She spends like five minutes dying, for God's sake. When that movie came out I saw it with my friend and his brother. So as that scene was dragging on I hear the brother do that loud whisper thing "Just die!". We cracked up, this was also the best thing about that lovely movie.

I was like ten years old at the time. In fairness to her I was laughing hysterically while everyone in the theater was crying. I was definitely the only one laughing in the theater during the scene in The Host when the family is all meeting in the gymnasium after the daughter is presumed dead and they all start sadfighting. edit: in middle school we went on a field trip to see Ghandi as a class and got in trouble because one kid laughed when he got shot.

Yeah I mean I figured it was something like this, but I wouldn't really be shocked if he knew about it.

If you read the article, the kid's agent had been abusing him since he was twelve. I'm not going to get mad at Chris Pratt because he didn't slap the drink out of a 17 year old's hand at a party, there's enough other reasons to poo poo on him.

My inappropriate laughter story is when I was watching Godzilla 2014 and after suffering through Aaron Taylon-Johnson's utter wooden lump of a performance, he tries to give his dramatic "One of us might die soon so I love you" speech on the phone to Liz Olson. I let out a Max Cady level guffaw and everyone looked at me like I was an rear end in a top hat. No regrets.

About three hours into The Irishman I was like “this is very well-made and I’m enjoying it, but I’m not finding it as revelatory as everyone else.” Then I made it through the last half-hour which was really loving good and extremely  I like how The Irishman is almost a time travel movie, like Scorsese knew he was going to get into this Marvel kerfuffle and a lot of people would knock him for making glitzy problematic crime picture around the time of the film’s release, so he made a gangster movie with almost no glitz or glamor and is just hours of bullshit backdoor politicking.
