Koirhor posted:so I tried giving Sandman a chance and maybe its not for me but I thought it was horribly boring and uninteresting And it's terminally infected with the stalest elements of prestige drama. The Corinthian has to appear in the first episode and keep making pointless cameos to remind you he's a big bad guy. Desire appeared at the end of the last episode I saw in a badly composited Frankenstein monster of conflicting background and lighting, but isn't even there for the next episode - it's just a cheap stinger. They combine comics to reach the hour mark because the production team must really believe that 30 minutes is for comedies and 1 hour is for dramas. Blegh. There's some good changes - making John Dee more sympathetic rather than a skull-faced sadist made better use of David Thewlis, Johanna Constantine and Death were good casting decisions, but otherwise there's nothing special about it. I can't think of Patton Oswald as anything but Happy! as the raven. Knight has issued a correction as of 05:16 on Dec 7, 2022 |

I rewatched Heist tonight and while I think Mamet's one of the all-timers for screenplays I don't think he's a great director

That thing how people are always thinking James Cameron is doing wrong dumb poo poo and being stupid and wasting money and making poor choices before he is somehow always proven right and correct and smashing box office records and creating amazing movies, that thing that's been going on for like 40 years, it's only going to make the one time James Cameron actually fails and actually fucks up just that much more delicious

It sucks that in Sandman you meet whatsherface Constantine but she's posh AF and talks like a times journalist who went to Oxford. And she's introduced saving a royal from a scary black footballer. Like the whole point of comic constantine is he's a working class geezer who rubs the tories the wrong way and annoys demons He's meant to be supernatural columbo except ruder so he goes "oh an one more fing, Mr Satan... go suck yer da!"

i liked sandman well enough, jenna coleman was a weird fit as constantine but a good fit as jenna coleman. the hell episode did suck the worst, all the grandiose stuff looked cheap and unimaginative. thewlis as dee was worth the price of admission, imo.

Terminator is an all-time great action movie, but beyond that I don't have any other Cameron movies I'm a huge fan of. Alien is vastly superior to Aliens, and Aliens is outmaneuvered by Predator in the "let's watch '80s machismo get stomped" department.

Still reading Count of Monte Cristo. I am by now at the part where he's back in Paris and is slowly chipping away at his enemies without revealing himself, by making the banker guy's investments all go bad, manipulating him into betrothing his daughter to her broke half-brother, etc, and now disgracing the military guy by selling his horrible shameful secrets to the newspapers, and it's kind of depressing me because all I can think is how little of a poo poo anybody would give if the same thing happened today. Even if the papers DO push scandals, which they increasingly just don't, nobody cares. Powerful people can get away with loving anything in 21st century America. also at this point he has done precisely jack poo poo to the lawyer guy. Dantes had absolutely nothing to do with the worst thing that has happened to Villefort (his daughter's engagement falling apart because his dad killed the groom-to-be's dad), and it would have happened regardless. He's loving with him mentally, by buying his old house where he (thinks he) killed his bastard child and making him walk around it and talking loudly about all the dark deeds that surely happened there etc etc, but that doesn't really mean anything. loquacius has issued a correction as of 15:49 on Dec 7, 2022 |

I think its a little unfair to say he solves problems in uninteresting ways when it's stuff like building full scale 1:1 sets that can be flooded with water, sure its throwing money at the problem but the result is fantastic considering the time Nowadays people would throw CGI artists at the problem which is way way less interesting and maybe not even as cheap (look at the slave mines that are Marvel studios)

Finding out your famous military dad made his career by accepting a bribe to turn traitor, in 19th century France: "No... No! My poor mother! Alas, the shame and dishonor! I shall never speak to the cowardly old wretch again! His name is a black mark upon mine!" Finding out something equivalent in 21st century America: "Ugh, fake news again 🙄 Wonder how much the Russians paid for that 'story'. Anyway, back to accepting bribes for a living literally every day as a wealthy failson!"
