Jedit posted:If you want to find positives, just try to think how they managed to make a fantasy/martial arts TV show at all when they had no money whatsoever to spend on it. I think they had something like three standing sets and one exterior location (which was a dirt service track in the woods) for all their filming. Yeah, I mention that a few times. The CGI is actually decent for their situation too, but there are times you can tell they blew the entire episodes budget for a 2 second shot of a completely stationary Goro standing on a cliff that has nothing to do with the rest of the episode. Also, Jeffery Meek is loving AWESOME.

Max22 posted:Yeah, the teaser was shot separately from the rest of the film, although I think I remember hearing that the climax of the movie was originally going to take place on top of the World Trade Center (which was definitely the case for Men in Black 2). The WTC ending was in the James Cameron script, I believe, not any of the ones after he left and Raimi got on board. I think it's where Spidey and Arnold as Doc Ock were supposed to have their final show down.

The Triumphant posted:drat, it always surprises me to remember that Mirror's Edge actually got good reviews. For me it was just trial-and-error quicktime event gameplay interspersed with terribly-written anime cutscenes. I don't think you know what quicktime events are, because Mirror's Edge had no QTEs.

The Triumphant posted:I was using it to refer to the fact that Mirror's Edge was extremely linear and repetitive, gave the player very little agency, and basically boiled down to trial-and-error gameplay of hitting the jump button at exactly the right time. It didn't have literal quicktime events but you could replace 80% of the game with them and it would have made very little difference. Doom is extremely linear, repetitive, gives the player very little agency, and basically boils down to trial-and error gameplay of hitting the shoot button at exactly the right time. Pac-Man is extremely linear, repetitive, gives the player very little agency, and basically boils down to trial-and error gameplay of hitting the direction button at exactly the right time. God of War is extremely linear, repetitive, gives the player very little agency, and basically boils down to trial-and error gameplay of hitting the attack and jump buttons at exactly the right time. I could keep going, if you'd like. Just say you didn't like the game, dude. Hell, I never even finished Mirror's Edge because I got to a jumping puzzle that I had no loving idea how to finish and quit. No one will mind if it wasn't your thing, but none of those criticisms aren't true of a ton video games, right down to kind of being what video games, on the whole, are.

Is it all DVD copies that are like that? I thought it was just the ones that came with the blu-ray/dvd three pack, of which there are actually 4 different sets of discs: Also, uh...have you seen the movie? Her burning a DVD is kind of a big thing that happens in it, so it being like that makes a lot of sense, and is actually pretty drat clever. It's one of the nicer blu ray's I've seen.

Bugblatter posted:I can't for the life of me recall any point in the American film where she burns a DVD, let alone a time when doing so was a big deal? She burns a DVD of her brutal rape and then plays it for her rapist when she has him tied up. It's probably the most memorable scene of the entire film.

Bugblatter posted:Eh, she plays the video but no DVD is ever depicted. I guess I assumed it was playing from a drive or off the camera itself, because who the hell burns a disk anymore? Not that it matters. While the scene is certainly memorable, the format the video is playing off of is inconsequential and far too much of a footnote to justify basing the film's packaging around. I haven't watched the blu ray since getting it, but I'm fairly sure they show her popping it into the player hooked up. And even if not, I knew immediately what it was referencing, and so did every single person except for you, apparently.

Lizard Combatant posted:Wow, timely and relevant. Midnight screening for sure. People that produce these turds are on the lowest rungs of the creative ladder. Porn parodies at least have loving, this is just woefull. Hell, porn parodies usually come out either slightly after, or even before the movie they are parodying comes out. I think even porn would scoff at the idea of making a Kill Bill parody 10 years after the god drat movie came out.

Not about the poster, but from the trailer for Gone, did anyone else get the impression that like...it seemed like a sequel? Like that there should have been another movie about the main character getting abducted or whatever, and then this is the second movie where she has to help someone else?

What the gently caress are those FT13 covers even for? Are they releasing yet another box set or something? They don't even mesh with the designs of the current blu rays, so I'm guessing they're not finally getting off their asses and releasing the rest of the series on that format yet.

Slasherfan posted:These are the UK releases of the movie, we have yet to get the special editions of the movies. They even released the From Crystal Lake To Manhatten box set over here and took all the features off. Even over here in the states we've only gotten 1-3 on blu ray, and that was back when the remake was coming out to theaters. Since the remake was released, we've gotten 2 additional box sets on DVD too. I've given up hope on them every being released on blu ray. Or at least good releases, if they do come out they'll end up like Nightmare 2 and 3 where they're shoved together onto one disc with no special features at all, I bet.

I wouldn't mind them being on the same blu ray if there were some kind of special features on them. Well, features about 3, who gives a poo poo about 2. Other than that though...Yeah, 1, 3, and New Nightmare are the only ones I really care about.

scary ghost dog posted:No, my bathroom looks a lot like that. The door's so someone can shower while someone else shits without the showerer being disgusted. However, our door opens outward. Yeah, it's actually a pretty good idea. That way you aren't getting germs/excrement particles all over your toothbrush and shower stuff every time some rear end in a top hat takes a piss/poo poo and doesn't close the lid when they flush. In fact, I'm going to just say that whoever came up with the idea of making GBS threads in the same room that you clean yourself in the first place was probably a loving dolt.
