Pretty sure that means it was good. You just didn't like it. I mean, art has many reasons. One is to produce thought. If a piece of art caused you to think about it for a year, it can't be bad. The "bad" is just your reaction to it. And yes, I know ghost of mars is considered a bad movie. Art is weird. Also, don't date artists. Then you start posting like this ^^^^^

If the point of your art is for people to think it is bad then maybe you should rethink art. You know who else made bad art and also did a lot of horrible things? That's right, George Bush Jr.

Waltzing Along posted:Pretty sure that means it was good. You just didn't like it. Art owns and when anyone says it's good or bad I automatically translate into "like or don't like." It's just how you discuss art. Something that sucks can still be effective art to someone or just liked and enjoyed by a niche. Often the best art is inherently off-putting to many groups of people, but pursuing what makes that art niche good means disregarding what things are likeable by more groups broadly. And I think the reason I remembered it was both the start of an interest in how the art is made in terms thinking of how it could be different and just he is a very competent and talented filmaker so even when he makes a mess it's more memorable than bad movies I saw before the that I just didnt care about and washed off my mind after seeing or flipping away.

Old Mario movie > new Mario movie. They hosed up the DK rap. They managed to go from "gently caress YEAH" to "what the gently caress is this" in like 3 seconds. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sMd1rsJJ0M Also the movie has like no story and is just a collection of references.

I unironically enjoy the old mario movie. It's a very bad film by pretty much any standard apart from the set design, which is surprisingly awesome. The entire film looks like someone got really, really high while watching Blade Runner at the same time as someone that was even more high told them about the Mushroom Kingdom. Hoskins and Leguizamo are visibly beyond caring and just getting silly with it, and Dennis Hopper is so hosed up that he will eat every inch of the scenery. It's a fanastic awful film that looks way better than it has any right to while being an incomprehensible mess of nonsense.

I want to say it's an accent thing, but that can't be the case as I've watched tons of US films and that's never been an issue. Every single time someone opens their mouth the completely wrong voice pops out - yes, even Jack Black as Bowser, which is apparently unpopular.

The new Mario movie apparently at the last minute had the executive producer show up, tell the sound guy to rip out all the mario music, and replace it with licensed classic rock. Which coincidentally is the absolute most dogshit parts of the movie

I got this really cool collectors edition DVDs recently that came with art books and behind the scenes poo poo thicker than the movie itself and it's really rad to browse through. Lots of weird on set photos, surprising number of bare asses. It is a really cool movie and I think has gotten better over time, the anticapitalist cyberpunk dystopia is such a wild swing for the Mario Brothers universe and worth seeing.

Vampire Panties posted:My biggest complaint against RTSs is they've all devolved into APM clickfests or rock-paper-scissor unit matchups. I'm really interested in the new Planetary Annihilation game because it seems like designing a better economy will have direct benefits in game. You couldn't chill n turtle and build walls anymore. Starcraft turned everything into sweat fest only won by those who were studying the hotkeys while we were having fun building turrets. I will never remember any hotkey for any rts and screw the communities that tell me to. (Wargame would've been cool if entire community wasn't /pol/ putinists and or neonazis and if it didn't want you to to do the jobs of every rank of officer from 4 branches of combined arms simultaneously)

Age of Mythology pissed me off because the expansion decided that instead of adding another pantheon from anywhere else in the wider world, they just added Greeks 2.0 with essentially made up fanfic gods.

As long as I just sat there, all the enemies ignored me. If i played for another six months then I could level up enough to push buttons with the rest of the guild, but I noped right out (  into War Thunder)haddedam posted:You couldn't chill n turtle and build walls anymore. when the world was young and Total Annihilation was new, my roommates and I would spend 45 minutes or so queuing up our bases / units, and then go out to dinner. When we got back our computers would be chugging at like 3 FPS from all the stuff and we'd play out the rest of the game. I'm not saying I want to commit 2+ hours to a RTS game again, but I wish the pace was a lot slower

Theres an expansion that added Chinese gods. It was fun! i think. It was a decade ago.

IIRC the original mechanic to introduce Jedi was going to make something like 1/10000th of the users into Jedi, and they would have to go on a shitload of Jedi-specific quests to develop their force powers and build a lightsaber I played long enough to get into flying, which was originally presented as a MMO Squadrons, but really was a 3rd person mini game like Rogue Squadron

The obvious solution is to make it like a large scale Space Station 13 type game where being an imperial janitor is the most powerful and menacing threat in the universe.
