Minera posted:I went to see it. It was... okay. A 2 out of 4 star if there ever was one. Especially because I went to see Fall Guy a few weeks ago, which was just a perfectly paced and written "action movie," so this just felt stodgy and like it wanted to be more than it is. That's too many words about the ape movie; I am sorry to do this to you but Tldr

Fall Guy was fun though, it poked the movie industry a lot

I was out at a bad movie night and since Corman died they rescheduled their secret film to instead play Death Race 2000 so it was a good night.

There's a good video of some Jon favreau show where famous people eat together and talk about movies I guess? That has a roundtable of Jon favreau Rob zombie Bruce Campbell and Roger corman and Faizon Love where there's some great stories from corman who is comes off as the coolest guy in the universe. https://www.facebook.com/share/v/muvG8Dw9cTb5H9dN/?mibextid=wWqvZr Google doesn't work anymore so here's a Facebook link to what I can only assume is an Italian evil dead group?

Corman had the name rights to The Fast and The Furious, and when this new Vin Diesel flick was being made Universal Pictures really wanted the title. So he cut a deal - they could use the name, but in exchange Corman got unlimited free access to the Universal Pictures stock footage, for life. And he kept all the numbered sequel names, which is why none of the fast and furious sequels just have a 2 or 3 added to the end.

khwarezm posted:Corman is something else, he made nothing but crap but was incredibly important in the careers of most of the greatest living directors and actors in Hollywood today, especially Coppola and Scorsese, so everyone rightly loves him. Roger Corman made a ton of great movies. I mean, have you seen any of his Poe adaptations?

I mean, I’ve seen Poe Dameron in JJ Abrams’ classic “The Rise of Skywalker,” if that’s what you’re asking.

Watched The Intruder on Twitch last night and what a movie for Corman to make when he did. Just throwing the ugliness and vileness of racism straight in your face unapologetically.

Groovelord Neato posted:The original Little Shop of Horrors being shot on sets from another one of his films in the two days before they were torn down is one of my favorite bits of Hollywood trivia. What a madman rip to the best to ever do it. And it's a great little movie that i like better than the 80s one tbh

Paul Schrader didn't wait until Roger Corman was cold before throwing shade. From his Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/oS3xDp4KMj97hZgU/?mibextid=oFDknk ROGER CORMAN. Let's not too sentimental about Corman. Even in my exploitational extremes I couldn't interest Corman in my scripts. Rolling Thunder began at AIP but moved on to 20th. Roger wouldn't touch Blue Collar even with Pryor. As soon as they could Coppola, Scorsese and Demme all moved away from AIP. Roger was better at hyping his rep than at making good films or supporting good filmmakers.

Ok. It happened. I watched an anime and it was good if a little too exploitative at the end. Plenty of sex creep but everyone was an adult at least. Am I a weeb now? Do I have to buy a katana and invest in dogecoin?
