timesplitters was the first thing to pop in my mind and yeah its more of a same reference material thing i dont think anyone looked at timesplitters and said hey lets make a movie that looks like that

personally i think the weird cartoony style timesplitters had going still holds up pretty well jank notwithstanding im playing through second sight right now and its still convincing even in a more serious storyline

As a rule, stylished and 'cartoony' graphics that sometimes got poo poo on at the time (see Wind Waker) hold up waaay better than the 'realistic' graphical arms race, especially from the first generations of 3D on consoles. Of course, so much about that particular stage of video games is basically 'We were impressed by THIS?'

James Cameron is working on genetically engineering real cat people for Avatar 3.

Avatar 4 will mostly be filmed in space.

I watched silent night deadly night 2 tonight. It is very fun, but I kind of forgot that the first 30 minutes are a recap of the first movie. I should have skipped the first one this year!

Oh well, "Garbage Day!" Remains an all time great line.

just watched Electra (1996) which i was expecting to be a big slice of sci fi action thriller cheese, and it eventually got there, but not before a huge loving slab of "the writer's barely-disguised fetish" - it's stepmother stuff! lots of it! more than you'd be expecting! the movie is otherwise fun and campy and you could have a good time hollering at it with friends, but i feel like knowing how incest-y it gets and not knowing are two different watching experiences. anyways, here's Shannon Tweed and Katie Griffin flying and doing kittycat claws at each other:

I saw white noise and it was fine. They did a good job of capturing delillos weird angular style of dialog in movie format, the main cast especially killed it in some of the more dialog/monologue heavy scenes. It suffered a bit in the third part, largely because it’s more plot driven and iirc goes a lot heavier on the narrator’s internal monologue in the book, so in the movie it dragged a bit. The whole movie was pretty funny though and worth a watch if you are a fan of the novel.

it was fun and it’s like 6 episodes so it doesn’t overstay its welcome. if you’ve never been in an environment line that (whether staff or guest) it’s possible you might not get as much out of it. also the last episodes of both seasons are bad, and the running theme is gay people and sex workers are scheming murderous thieving sexual abusers and drug addicts. there’s a bit of class stuff more visibly than in other shows. it’s all right.

I get bad vibes from series creator White Mike, he seems a little eelish and he said “a derpy death.”

I thought season 1 was pretty good, season 2 is alright so far (Im on episode 3) but I'm unsure about a few of the characters.
