DangerDummy! posted:Also, anyone in the mood for a weird, off putting horror/thriller should watch The Baby. It's real different. Seconding this. Such a memorably hosed-up old movie.

The most ironic thing about Detention is that the quietest, slowest performance in the film comes from Dane Cook.

For me they key to Detention was catching on that it doesn't give you time to laugh so you shouldn't bother, and keeping the faith that nothing is just throwaway detail, it all comes back eventually.

The Sacrament loving sucks because it pretends like it's going to have something valuable to say about Jonestown before instead writing off Jones's victims as dangerous lost causes and devolving into "Don't you hope these poor, brave Vice journalists make it out alright? "

Science fiction is a club that Metropolis, Fahrenheit 451, Rendezvous with Rama, The Time Machine and The Matrix all have enough in common to be in together but Star Wars can't for reasons

Shoot 'Em Up had a surprisingly engaging plot for something constantly winking at you about its shamelessness.

sout posted:I think a lot of people's awareness of Ghostbusters comes from the song. I think I was in my teens before I even knew there was a movie. I just thought it was a kickass song about busting ghosts, and when I found out it was from a movie I thought for the first time maybe that was kind of a weird subject to just write a song about.

NeoSeeker posted:Another movie I consider the last of this trio would be Red Planet. Stupid deaths and disaster all within around the same half a decade. The fuckin tornado scene had me in stitches. Apparently all grip upon you is lost in a tornado when your libs are ripped off. Then I guess the wind doesn't give a poo poo about you anymore. Are you sure that wasn't Mission to Mars? Or is there more than one movie where a Martian tornado rips a guy's limbs off?

Spoils of Babylon is alright, it's kind of like an American Darkplace. Though it did make me realize I don't think Will Ferrell is funny really at all.

The people trying to get you to watch Star Wars out of order are the loving worst. You can cram your fanedits too, changing the movie to something marginally better so you can fanboy about it all the more unrestrainedly.

For fifteen years there were three Star Wars movies and for fifteen years even huge nerdlingers were happy as pigs in poo poo with that being the undisputed, inviolate core of the media empire but now there's eight more hours of pompous, soulless bullshit about as meaningful as a crossword puzzle and they act like the Star Wars experience is and always has been woefully incomplete without it. gently caress. Production order, period, done.

The Vosgian Beast posted:Wait, are you implying nerds like the Star Wars Prequels? Very few any more will slobber over them like they did on release, but lots of fans think the prequels are an illuminating, necessary complement to the trilogy and vice versa, and that the real-world circumstances that resulted in each series of films are beneath consideration. What happens is people who wish the prequels were better try to achieve it by dogmatically tying the prequels to the trilogy, like the quality will rub off. It usually comes up when someone says something like "My buddy has never seen anything Star Wars! We're gonna watch all six of 'em together!" Which is fine but then you get very Star Wars-knowledgeable people saying things like "Watch the prequels first!" or my favorite "Watch Episode I, then New Hope and Empire, then Episodes II and III, then Jedi!" So even an ideal guinea pig who's a tabula rasa on the subject of Star Wars is going to end up confused and unengaged getting yanked the wrong way across the vast gulf in aesthetics and cultural influence that exists between these two series of films.

Boy, that film's production design and music were so wonderful, but the story was pretty rote. And the acting was so unrealistic! What was it called again? "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg"? Meh. Reminded me of Star Wars. Ugh, I can't stand Chuck Jones cartoons. It seems like that guy's only tricks are impeccable comic timing, hilarious facial expressions, and expressing his characters' states of mind through stylized backgrounds.

The hell of it is that Holy Motors is exactly the kind of movie that would blur a boner out for artistic purposes, so the first time I saw it I didn't think, "Censorship!" I thought, "Fascinating. I can't tell if he's flaccid or erect." e: They can show erections, or at least they could a few years ago when I watched Antichrist on Instant. double edit: yeah, or it could be on the distributor's end.
