Now that you mention it, I can't even remember the last movie I saw in theaters. Maybe Knives Out?

They probably scan around online for discussion and if they do, I'm not exactly anonymous.

Would you say you're kind of a big deal? :v:

Last film i saw was Tenet, i had the benefit of subtitles so y'all might wanna give that a try in the states. But honestly the sound mixing was pretty ok from what I recall? I don't remember having issues with understanding the dialogue, subtitles notwithstanding

It was actually Venom 2 and he can’t talk about how the villain is actually Knull.

i know it was technically a 2018 release in France but the dub came out here in mid-2019 and that's the only way the joke works

I think my last film was Rise of Skywalker, that sucked.

I tried to go and see New Mutants, but the cinema I like is in the next town over and takes like an hour to get to. My train ended up getting cancelled when someone got hit by a train a little further down the tracks.

In other news, a Variety interview with Ray Fisher and Joe italian surname just dropped

https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywoo...cial-type=owned


quote:

But didn’t a lot of stuff change?

Fisher: There was a lot of stuff that changed, to be completely honest with you. I had to go back and reshoot every single scene I was in. None of this stuff that you see in the theatrical cut with me, except for the Gotham City police rooftop scene with J.K. Simmons, [is original]. Everything else I had to reshoot.

Manganiello: Whoa.

Fisher: Yeah. There was so much that was lost, man. It’s crazy because if it weren’t happening in this way, we may not be able to see everything that Zack had originally planned. This [new] thing is four hours long.

quote:

People are wondering, what exactly happened?

Fisher: There were some things that did not happen to me that I bore witness to, that I can’t speak about right now. That’s for the people that it happened to, to speak about. You could tell very quickly that [Whedon] was very upset that people did not like Age of Ultron very much. This is what I gathered from the first conversation that I had with him. There was a bit of this sort of egotistical narcissism that ended up going into everything that he was trying to do.

You can see it in some of the scenes that were produced. Flash falling on Wonder Woman’s [chest] is something that he yanked out of Age of Ultron and just copy-pasted here. In my first conversation creatively with him, he kept accidentally calling “Diana” “Natasha,” which is crazy stuff. [Note: For the unfamiliar, the real name of Marvel’s Black Widow is Natasha, and DC's Wonder Woman is Diana.] This was in the conversation that they made me have with him prior to giving me the script. There was a lot of belittling on set. There was a lot of mocking, both of previous work and of actors and people.

What do you mean? [Note: Throughout V.F.’s reporting on this project, Whedon’s representatives have repeatedly declined to comment.]

Fisher: He compared me at one point to Robert Downey Jr. And said, “Listen, I don’t like to take notes from anybody, not even Robert Downey Jr.” And I said, “Well, okay. Be that as it may…”


Big yikes at the Whedon stuff. For a man with such a mediocre output the guy had a gargantuan ego. There's also a nice contrast with how they describe Zack as inclusive and sharing, "like night and day". It also goes in to some detail about Joes involvement in the solo batman film

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.
I saw Tenet and Freaky mid-pandemic but both times I found completely empty showings where I was the only person in there, so that was okay.

I'm glad I saw Tenet that way because it's a giant mess of a movie but it sure is a loving spectacle about it. It's like Avatar, anything short of 20 foot tall Dolby screens robs it of its one redeeming value.

I had to take a really long flight today for work and one of the in flight movie options was The New Mutants. I’ve avoided watching the movie so far because I’ve heard how bad it is but I figured gently caress-it, might as well.

Holy poo poo, I underestimated how incredibly mediocre that movie could be most of the time and outright bad at other times. No character has anything resembling a voice except Magik and her voice is racist mean girl. It’s truly impressive that a movie that spent most of its time focusing on feelings and trauma of the characters established little to no characterization of them. Even though I just watched it an hour ago I couldn’t tell you one line Sunspot said or any of his characteristics from the movie.

What a terrible conclusion to the Fox X-men movies. While they weren’t always great, they definitely had defined characters most of the time. New Mutants was like a child retelling the movie they watched the next day.

Then you have a responsibility that no man has ever faced. You have your fear which could become reality, and you have Godzilla, which is reality.

I saw TENET at my local drive in, which is a halfway decent spot but obviously nowhere near the luxury of the plush recliner seats with rumble and cocktails and real food type situation normally available in upscale theaters. My wife and I got drunk and stoned in the back of our car and had absolutely no idea what the gently caress was going on. It was great.

how did you get home
