Cythereal posted:Also getting Mountains of Madness vibes from that. Entombed under the Antarctic ice, scared the crap out of the people whose business is studying stuff like this, and by the sounds of it may have driven the head scientist mad. I certainly hope the lead scientist wasn't driven mad because is the same lady from G'14.

MechanicalTomPetty posted:Didn't The Gunslinger get completely re-written at one point? Also isn't King really picky about how his work gets adapted because of all the poo poo Stanley Kubrick pulled while filming The Shining? As I understand it, Jack in The Shining is a bit autobiographical and King was a little miffed that Kubrick basically removed the nuance that he's trying to be good even if he's a selfish rear end in a top hat. Not that there isn't nuance in the portrayal, just that he took it a little personal? I don't know if this is more gobbledygook.

If someone began claiming that tiny Japanese ladies in fairy costumes were speaking to them, especially if they were a little mentally off to begin with and there was some level of ambiguity throughout the movie, then I think that would be okay.

Gaunab posted:I saw Kuso last night. It was a lot of shock gross outs and weird stuff. It's one of those movies where you feel embarrassed for the actors involved. I went to a Flying Lotus show in June and it was great, he was promoting the movie hard though. But I think I'm interested in it because it reminds me of the Greasy Strangler more than anything else.

So this suit by Stallone might finally open up whatever the gently caress Hwood calls their accountingquote:According to The Hollywood Reporter, a Los Angeles Superior Court judge rejected the studio's bid to throw out breach of contract and fraud claims. quote:Stallone demanded injunctive relief in the form of "a full accounting, an explanation of how this practice came to be, interest, damages, and an end to this practice for all talent who expect to be paid by WB for the fruits of their labour." http://www.asianage.com/entertainme...an-profits.html Lol at this being about Demolition Man, just lol.

well why not posted:he endorsed an energy drink that was basically a pyramid scheme and is gaga for Trump. Yeah, Frank Stallone endorsing an energy doesn't seem like it would work, then again it can't be any better for a lethargic, lazy rear end like Steven Seagal selling you an "energy" drink.

human trafficking and rape is #1 worst thing about Seagal, no doubt. Frank Stallone still sucks: https://twitter.com/stallone/status/758696423441346561 Not in the same stratosphere as Seagal however.

Stallone specifically put in the complaint that he wants an explanation for how this practice came to be(i.e. they have to confess that they knew they were doing shady poo poo), and an agreement that they will not do it again in the future. So yea it seems like he's out for more than just whatever he feels like he's owed for Demolition Man. Stallone has always been more in touch with the ins and outs of the movie business than the average A-list star. He famously held onto that Rocky script even after he was offered life-changing money for it, because he saw it as is launching pad to an acting career. It doesn't surprise me at all that he'd bring a lawsuit like this for reasons other than just money.

The studio had better hire Wesley Snipes to try and stop him. A reverse Spartan/Phoenix scenario, if you will.
