A Scanner Darkly is a pretty loving good adaptation, it's very close to the novel ie extremely paranoid. Downey Jr. and Harrelson are A+ and Keanu's wooden acting is perfect for the role just like January Jones in Mad Men. iirc Dick originally wrote it about his real friends but his publisher made him add a bunch of sci-fi for sales.

sorry it’s cancelled for “platforming” Alex Jones

it is a little funny that alex jones plays a parody of himself in A Scanner Darkly. did he used to be more self aware?

Scanner is pre-Obama Derangement Syndrome and Alex wasn't always so right wing as he is now. he tacked right because it made him money.

i can never watch a scanner darkly because it looks too much like waking life, the movie equivalent of listening to someone talk about their boring rear end dreams for 2 hours

The Scorsese cinematic universe is adding the British knockoff chris pratt.

I hope this is not a cgi fest like the Irishman. I enjoy practical effects and stunts.

its not the movie equivalent of listening to someone talk about their boring rear end dreams for 2 hours its literally listening to someone talk about their boring rear end dreams for 2 hours

aside from the art style the only bit of that movie i remember is where the guy says light switches dont work in dreams and then dun dun dun the light switch doesnt work when the other guy tries to use it

Scorsese needs to accept that his usual crew of actors are old as hell or get new talent.

if you live in a car I think piss bottles are understood

e: oh you mean specifically while they’re at work. well. idk, I’m having a hard time squaring the circle of a story of people only making enough that they have to live in their loving cars as being in any way “rosy”

it's funny how in this kong vs Godzilla movie they make it clear to you that the USAF dude in the f-22 definitely ejected before his plane got demolished. like it's a whole 2-3 second shot of him ejecting and then his chute deploying.

I wonder if there's a scene where they show him drowning that got cut.

It's like one of the Dragon Ball Z movies where they added a line of a character saying they can see the parachutes of some pilots that got straight up exploded for some silly attempt of toning down violence.

on that note, Man of Steel does this whole thing where Superman and Zod fighting inside a city causes mass civilian casualties

and then Batman v Superman does this whole 9/11-type thing where that incident is held up as proof of why Superman is too dangerous to exist

and then in the final fight with Doomsday, there's a ton of plot contrivances to try to make it absolutely clear to the audience that no such casualties are happening again

like, that last part hits weird because they say something like "they're blowing up downtown, but that's okay because it's the end of the working day and there's barely anyone in that part of town"... which is not going to be true for any kind of bustling city where a night shift exists

I often try not to nitpick movies anymore but it sticks out because they make it so important, and then withdraw it just as conspicuously

this definitely harkens back to one of the superhero "learn to read" books my kid has.

there's a scene where lex luthor just destroys a bunch of buildings and then a panel of text explaining how it was OKAY because nobody was in them.
