when john lennon publicly talked and sang about beating women and actively spent years working through his anger in therapy, i thought: what a hypocritical weasel singing about love and beating women, i bet he loved beating people up, he should know better like i do

i say swears online posted:i've never seen a godzilla movie. i've seen a billion clips of cities being destroyed, but nothing consisting of what i'd guess is a third act. how do these movies normally resolve the first early entries 1955-1967 have a rough continuity where Godzilla gets dispatched one way at the end, and then in the beginning of the next one he comes back from that. for example at the climax of one film he's buried in a glacier, then in the next film he bursts out of an iceberg. this goes on until 1968's Destroy All Monsters which was set in 1999 and is doing a future scifi thing, and then next year's All Monsters Attack which is a weird (good) meta film about a japanese latchkey kid who daydreams of godzilla. in the 70s Godzilla becomes a straight up superhero and just shows up for each film. they rebooted the series in 1984 which kicked off a straightforward continuity of 7 films through 1995. they rebooted again in 2000-2005 and those films are all doing their own standalone thing playing with continuity. toho likes to juice their property with reboots and then run it like skinflints and milk it for what they can until audiences get bored. compare the mediocre 90s godzilla films with the 90s gamera trilogy, made by the remains of former toho competitor studio daiei, working with a couple other funding sources for like 1/3 the budget of toho's hollow schlock (i don't care for the 90s entries if you can't tell)

my favorite godzilla film is godzilla vs biollante from 1989, it's just an all around solid action/sci-fi/fantasy flick with a dense plot full of corporate terrorism, ESP, genetic engineering, and ofc godzilla. has a vibe that would later be made explicit in shin godzilla, of the bureaucratization of a monster menace. works as a standalone film, there's a little intro wrapping up the last film. it's very well made, powerful story and excellent FX, but only made a good deal of $$$ at the box office instead of gently caress loads, so for the 90s films toho said gently caress original scripts and themes let's just bring back ghidorah, mothra, etc, and just nail the camera to the floor for the monster scenes. the fx team tries but they were working under impossible schedules and it shows

Whoolighams posted:as an elder millennial it's really gross seeing parents shove their pop culture tastes down their children's throats as the most important thing in their lives. one guy made everything around his kid Star Wars including taking the <1 year old to Force Awakens in the theater so he could "have the story of his first movie being Star Wars" i think the most comparable thing from our perspective is something like the godfather which not coincidentally isnt a movie for children so the biggest godfather nerd in the world isnt going to force her kids to watch it and be surprised that they dont understand whats going on

the comparable social system in the past would be religion, sports, and careers being foisted on the younger generations. four quadrant multimedia universes didn't really exist in a world thirty plus years ago when the cost of home media was extravagant

Grimnarsson posted:Watching the newest season of For All Mankind and I thought these morloks were going to strike and destroy the eloi up above but doesn't seem that way? Seems like liberal bullshit that capitalism just needs to be regulated and then it'll be good. It stinks! I like the show though. i think its kind of fascinating that despite for all mankind being an alternate timeline filled with cool space tech it has almost identical economic problems to the ones we have right now and theres no particularly obvious reason for these problems to exist except that our political system is still deliberately designed to incentivize people into doing stupid things even if we decided to dump all our money into space tech instead of THE JAKARTA METHOD any assumption that this commentary is deliberate is of course immediately undermined by the next scene focusing on the soviet union which makes it very clear that communism is bad look at all the mean communists trying to depose gorbachev

ryan o'neal is deadVanity Fair excerpt from Aug 2009 posted:NEW YORK, N.Y.--Ryan O'Neal speaks extensively with Vanity Fair contributing editor Leslie Bennetts about his relationship with Farrah Fawcett, and his family struggles, both before and after her death, and tells Bennetts he is full of regrets, saying, "I wish I could do it over with [Fawcett]. I would have been much kinder, more understanding, more mature. I'd lose some of the savagery. I don't know how she got cancer; maybe some of it was me. She wouldn't even have a diet soda!"
