Dr. Killjoy posted:Carol Rosin's first husband was deffo running cocaine from latin america as a cia asset (I say with with no proof whatsoever but do remember they never explain how he got rich) so it's hard to say if being fed to tigers was too good for him I hadn’t thought about this, but its probably true and therefore good that Carole murdered him. Every tiger owner, from Joe, to Jeff, to Carole, to that cult guy were each their own horrifying little microcosms of diseased boomer bourgeoise in this country. The ways they threat their workers is disgusting. One of Joe’s workers got her arm torn off and he probably treated his workers the best. The other guy was running a sex cult and Carole clearly paid her workers “in experience.” And that’s saying nothing of the treatment of the animals. I couldn’t help but notice that the government started going after Joe after he ran for governor and did a lot better than your typical kook and got 20% of the vote. Joe didn’t do anything worse than the other tiger owners but he suddenly shows up on the fed’s radar and they try to entrap him with an undercover agent posing as a hitman. I mean Joe was guilty as poo poo, but all the crimes they go after him for are crimes they learn about after they investigate. Watch your back, Vermin Supreme

Hey cspam people, if you're bored and self-isolating and you want some content to consume, I made an hour-long video essay talking about Suicide Squad where I say 'capitalism' at least three times: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhvRFplhQ7U

Peanut President posted:Reminder that the Pentagon sends "fixers" to movies to make sure the us armed forces are shown in a good light on every movie that uses official camo or real tanks or whatever worse, they get to use the real stuff (including troops) for free if they just let the pentagon approve the movie, that saves a lot on the budget

It's been years since I've read the book, so this could all be wrong.

I just watched that new invisible man movie written and directed by the guy that wrote and directed upgrade a couple years ago and had a hand writing and directing a slew those saw movies before that It was really good, very loving creepy and ended up be incredibly satisfying that guy makes really solid movies, great use of a limited budget only 7 million the bad guy is a SV creep so that was easy for me to buy into

Silicon valley weirdo is a new and very solid villain archetype. They're the new mad scientists, but without even the pretension of doing science for its own sake or for any reason other than their own personal gain. The Mark Zuckerbird (I didn't even intend that but hey, it works) in the new DuckTales is still a warmer and more human character than the real life one, and he's a literal supervillain who uses air horn sound effects.

i have never gotten the argument that the plot of suicide plot was muddled amanda waller has a dumbfuck idea to make superpowered criminals work for the government this predictably goes hilariously horrifically wrong and she has to use the b squad of superpowered criminals to cover her rear end which part of that was hard to understand i do agree with your interpretation that the original edit was probably way less chronological and that in the original edit we were supposed to be given most of the exposition in the form of flashbacks as the information becomes relevant or as the main cast learns it which just makes it all the more funnier that nobody could understand the story when it was presented in the most simplistic easily understood way possible

the invisible man is a near-perfect movie. shoutout to the guy who plays the silicon valley freak's little brother, who is able to project a beaten-dog energy like none i've ever seen. without ever going over the top, the dude is just perfect at acting like a person with no loving spine due to years of fraternal abuse

josh04 posted:thanks, and thanks for watching! Yeah, a lot of people really don't get the idea of looking at a movie in terms of what worked and what didn't, let alone trying to engage with it on its own terms. Many great movies don't make any sense when you look at the plot in a vacuum. And many bad movies have what could be a solid plot if accomplished better.
