Yeah, it really felt good hearing that Kids in the Hall theme going, real sentimental and nostalgic hearin that and seein them as old men. I havent gotten that far into it but it seemed solid. And i agree regarding Old being stupid and awkward but kinda fun and charming. I just like that it's a movie someone actually made. Don't get me wrong, it's not like, reaaally a recommend, but I like a low to mid budget sci-fi film committed to its weird stupid concept.

lol, they keep throwing in like, grainy film effects and other weird poo poo that doesn't make sense in context they did get all the LA on location shots correct at least. and the geography makes sense in dialogue... its bare minimum of course but that poo poo does throw me off when they get it wrong

I'm sorry, I've never seen the movie, read the books or watched this new show. Are you telling me that the title "The Lincoln Lawyer" is not about a Abraham Lincoln-eque lawyer, but is instead about a lawyer who drives a Lincoln automobile? That would be absolutely wild.

Also the Lincoln Lawyer book series is written by the same guy who did the Bosch book series, to the point where the books have crossovers. I haven't seen the Netflix series yet, but I'm going in with the assumption that this is going to be their sloppy Bosch clone. None of this matters, because the material itself (book and TV show) passes through you like a zephyr and you immediately forget anything about it after you finish watching. I watched a few seasons of Goliath and bounced off of it, it was too... theatrical? Dramatic? Surreal? for my tastes. I get why people like it but I like my crime shows to be a little on the bland and grounded side. I'm watching that stuff to unwind, not get all depressed and weirded out when Beau Bridges has an Amadeus-flavored hallucinatory death scene.

Have films ever been made with ad breaks, or is this a potential new Rubicon that we could be crossing with ad supported streaming tiers? Typically the pipeline for a film to be aired on, say, free TV, would involve the films are edited into single units, which then have their airing rights sold to a chanel, which then re edits them into ad breaks. Or, at least, that's my experience of it. But with the way streaming works, are we gonna see more, or possible all non-theatrically released films, come with built-in ad breaks?

Once you get over 80 minutes, you need a couple of slow points before you start ratcheting things up again or it just gets exhausting. The question is how much effort your writers and director put into those moments for things like character development.

TychoCelchuuu posted:Films have been made with intermissions. Right. It used to be a really big thing - there's a mini-climax or turning point, the curtains draw across the screen, the lights go up, everyone grabs a drink or goes to the toilet and then the second part starts. I'm not sure when and why this disappeared. I'd guess cinemas wanted to schedule more films, so there was a pressure towards reducing length.

more films should have intermissions. i can't really think of many movies that don't have a point where you could stop and say "okay let's all pee so we can actually enjoy the last reel"

i mean seriously, even if you don't drink during the movie, the human body is usually gonna need to pee once every 2 hours, and most people don't go 2+ hours without drinking anything either it's just madness. madness i tell you
