Chris Pratt gives me '"cool" youth pastor' vibes. Like you think he's cool but he's still a fundamentalist narc trying to convert you to Jesus.

(Nobody's ever asked me to party with them, but if anyone ever did, I could see myself being tempted to go along.) Sure, it may sound like fun, but I've learned that sex is really just a "roadblock to holiness." There's only one real way to have a good time: Jesus! I realize that some teens may not consider praising God and resisting your body's sinful urges to be all that "rad," but boy, oh, boy, are they wrong!

Dr Christmas posted:First episode of Squid Game, before anything gets going: Seong is picked up in a van with sleeping passengers. When he gets in, the van sprays him with sleeping gas. According to some Cracked article I read years ago, sleeping gas isn't really a thing, as very small vagaries would mean the difference between getting slightly buzzed and getting dead, but I can usually forgive it for the sake of expedience. What irritates me is that everyone before the last guy would be getting gassed multiple times, with someone in there getting quintuple-gassed. Sleeping gas is a thing. There was a huge controversy about its use in Russia awhile back https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moscow_hostage_crisis_chemical_agent. Its not that safe, but a murder game probably wouldn't be too concerned about that.

It’s not a thing in that example. It’s uncontrolled and unregulated anaesthesia, and it’s so unbelievably dangerous it killed about 25% of the people in that hostage situation. The actual mechanism of anaesthesia is not fully understood even now, but the risks are manageable in a medically controlled environment. With no way of controlling the level of exposure of each individual, they effectively murdered almost 200 people. For the purposes of a lone individual on a tv show, who cares? Sure, gas him or hit him with a tire iron, whatever.

It’s magic sleeping gas and the murder people wouldn’t risk killing the contestants outside of the game which is a plot point brought up later in the Doctor’s storyline

After watching No Time To Die recently, I decided to rewatch Goldeneye, my favorite Bond movie and the first one I saw when it came out, and not just on TV. Was the foley work always this obvious? At times, it seriously sounds like one of those Youtube videos where they paste Half-Life sound effects over random videos, it's so distracting.

I noticed a similar issue halfway through Mulholland Drive last night and wasn't sure if I could finish it between that and the jarring combo of both overacting and underacting does it get better after the first hour or is that just kind of the deal with David Lynch? I couldn't really get into Twin Peaks either

IMO David Lynch can be really hit or miss. I find the stories where the plot is relatively straightforward my favorite. He is definitely a director that seems to enjoy being an artist with a capital "A."

Exactly, it sounds like a budget made-for-TV movie. And the entire movie has so much random overdubbing of grunts and gasps and throwaway chatter. It's like they were afraid to not have enough sound effects, so they had Pierce Brosnan et. al. spend hours grunting in a sound booth. KozmoNaut has a new favorite as of 22:11 on Oct 12, 2021 |

The rerelease of vertigo has some real terrible updated Foley work too, it's super obvious because Jimmy Stuart will close a car door and it'll come through the subwoofer when almost nothing else is.

I have a soft spot for (most) Neil Blomkamp adjacent stuff so I might be biased, but that was the biggest case of cinematic blueballs I’ve had in a while. And I really like the idea of just some poor farmer being so overcome with grief at what happened to his family reality breaks around him in ways that terrify even him. One of the later shorts with the horrible flesh-thing in the mining facility had a lot of potential too.

Yea, they had some amazing visuals, particularly the invisible skeleton on fire in the woods, and the tank and people just floating away in the air. It was really my favorite of the bunch and I wish they'd either make a movie or just another short film to end it. gently caress it, a book would work. I'd love to know the backstory to why that soldier was out to kill him, and what the gently caress was going on with those timeslips. It was basically the best lovecraftian film I've seen since the empty man. The mining one was cool, and the monster was crazy as gently caress, but the ending kinda fell flat to me. Neat idea though. Variation on Moon.

Got around to watching Venom (2018) since everyone is so hyped about the sequel. So for the big fight at the end you have your bad guy about to get on a space shuttle that's about to lift off. One of the most vulnerable spots you can be. Like, one of the hardest places to not blow up by just doing a little bit of damage to. As a bonus your bad guy is quite flammable. You also know you can't beat him in a direct confrontation because he's much stronger than you. Why would you confront him before he gets inside the shuttle?

Is Mariah Carey in FreeGuy? Because she's weirdly involved with the marketing of the movie for no apparent reason and the last time a comedy film's marketing kept referencing Mariah Carey for no apparent reason it was You Don't Mess With the Zohan and it was because she was secretly in the movie (for no apparent reason).

During The Big Bang Theory actors from Star Trek guest star as themselves who were on the show Star Trek. Another movie they watch is the Back to the Future and Christopher Lloyd guest stars but not as Christopher Lloyd. Why do Star Trek actors portray themselves but when the man who played Doc Brown is on he isn’t recognized as such?
