FreudianSlippers posted:Eh Scott is only 78. He's got at least a decade left. My wife and I were talking in the car today about how 2016 hasn't taken many (any?) great directors yet, and Scott was the first one that popped into my head. The next two were Woody Allen and Polanski, so hopefully one of them kicks the bucket instead.

Spielberg popped into my head, he's gotta be in his late 60s or early 70s by now? Eastwood too, but I haven't seen any of his recent films. Edit: oh no, Scorsese and Carpenter are old too Toebone fucked around with this message at 04:50 on Nov 29, 2016 |

Leavemywife posted:How many on like, one of the Marvel movies? As compared to, say, a romantic comedy? For The Avengers, IMDB lists two people as Editor, and 40 people with various titles under Editorial Department. Romantic comedies are kind of all over the place, seems to range from a handful of people in the 90s to departments almost as large as the Marvel movies in more recent ones.

Alan Smithee posted:when movie pass goes tits up can i charge back my credit card for the rest of the months if I did the year deal You could try, but the moviepass terms and service agreement says they can do pretty much whatever they want with the service. Go see those movies now.

One of the nicer perks of MoviePass is that it works at all the little NYC indie and arthouse theaters, in addition to the big chains.

Alan Smithee posted:wouldn't it be more the CC company's call? Your CC company will have certain terms and conditions for doing a charge back; if moviepass hasn't broken the rules you agreed to when you signed up they're probably not going to do diddly.

In the book, while Sam is carrying the ring it tries to tempt him with visions of the greatest, most powerful garden of all time.

KOTEX GOD OF BLOOD posted:This is a cliche answer and I promise I'm not one of those people, but The Big Lebowski would be great for this. Just having The Dude bumble his way through a different Chandleresque mystery each week. Instead of following The Dude, I picture each episode or season following the mishaps of a different team in the bowling league.

Stalker is extremely slow, long, and ambiguous; and as soon as I finished it for the first time I wanted to watch it again.

marktheando posted:What's a good example of a film having the opposite message from the one the creator intended? Like trying to make anti-Communist propaganda with horrifying reds but making the revolutionaries look cool and badass and justified (as seen in Dark Knight Rises). A whole lotta people took Fight Club the wrong way (in effect, proving its point)

McCarthy originally wrote No Country as a screenplay, which I think is why the novel translates so directly to film, especially compared to his other books.

I don't think it was particularly well liked in 2005 either.

Krispy Wafer posted:Speeder bikes are aerodynamic and Jabba's barge just kind of floats (and is still at least slightly aerodynamic). It's Star Wars, so I can't expect too much realism; I just figured they'd bring out a different imperial ship for atmospheric fights. It's a brief shot and I doubt George thought about it all that much, but IIRC in A New Hope when the X-Wings are taking off to attack the Death Star they kinda hover straight up before turning and flying away
