I love this cover for the the DVD rerelease of Groundhog Day. You remember that film, the one that stars Phil Murray, Bill Murray's similar but not exactly the same looking unknown brother.

Maxwell Lord posted:The film would have probably cost $250 million that way. Lucas may technically have that money but I doubt he has all of it as liquid assets at this very moment. He probably does. Lucas is a billionaire several times over, and is in the top 100 of richest people in america.

Oh man, I miss being near a good poster shop. There was a an amazing place in Toronto I would go to all the time. They had tons of rare stuff, good prices on it too. Back when I was supervising an animation studio there, me and a few others went to that shop and loaded up on classic posters to decorate our offices. I think my favourite was this Temple of Doom variant poster:

I'll have to do a little internet sleuthing, as I haven't lived in Toronto for a decade now and the name eludes me. EDIT: I'm pretty sure it was The Movie Poster Warehouse They're quite a large place and have a huge selection. There's also The Hollywood Canteen. Much smaller and higher prices, but probably rarer stuff overall and a heavy focus on older, vintage stuff. Bloody Hedgehog fucked around with this message at 05:39 on Jan 30, 2012 |

TetsuoTW posted:I take it, then, that Vicious Circle was a bad representation of him? Because I've never been as solidly bored by a comedian as I was watching half an hour of that. His early stuff was quite good, but yeah, by the time Vicious Circle happened he seemed to think every syllable out of his mouth was pure gold, no matter how stupid and rambling. Now that I've said that, rambling really seems to be what made Vicious Circle so bad. Each little story he tells was quick, concise, and funny in his early stuff, but later on every one of his stories or jokes gets stretched out to 15 minutes and just goes on long past when it stopped being interesting. Kind of like how late 80's, early 90's SNL decided 15 minute sketches were great, even though they stopped being funny after the first 2 minutes.

Aatrek posted:The new Avengers one-sheet. Is the Hulk really supposed to be three stories tall? As far as I know, comics Hulk has sometimes been a fixed-height, and at other times he gets bigger the angrier he is. The first Hulk movie used the latter, to the point that he's something like 20 feet tall during the Hulk-Dogs fight. The newer Edward Norton Hulk film seems to keep him at a fixed height.

penismightier posted:Apocalypse Now. Time means anything in film production? There have been films that took 50 years to get made. Stuff like early sci-fi from Dick and Asimov got optioned back in the 50's, and many of the stories are still in production hell. Rights get passed from owner to owner, studio to studio, endless drafts of screen plays, it goes on forever. 10 years to get a film going is nothing out of the ordinary.

Lobok posted:I wonder what people thought of the title "Die Hard" as well. It came out when I was a kid so I don't know a time when Die Hard didn't exist, but the title has always seemed ridiculous to me on its own. Like someone trying to do a parody of the most bad-rear end, 70/80s vigilante or cop flicks. The phrase "Die Hard" existed long before the film came out. I think it dates back at least a couple hundred years.

All the cheezy lines, the swaggering brit Simon McCorkindale and his aussie thug assistant, the shark that has now become riduculously large, Lou Gossett Jr. putting on an acting job so bad it's like some sort of neo-minstrel performance, the "it's just a baby, the mother is still inside the park!". It's so bad it becomes good again. Unlike Jaws: The Revenge, which was just utterly reprehensible. Poor Michael Cain, the only bright light in a sea of poo poo.

Actually, a giant pacific octopus will gently caress your poo poo up. While slow to anger, if they do come after you they can easily drown you. Their intelligence really shows in that the few times they've attacked divers, they frequently try and pull the divers regulator out of their mouth. The big ones too will frequently attack and eat sharks.

Lobok posted:Octopus camouflage will always be amazing to watch. It's so perfect in both the detail and the transition speed. Incredibly creepy and beautiful at the same time. Hell yeah! There's that one amazing video of a small octopus hidden in some fan coral or something, and you literally can not see it whatsoever until it suddenly changes color and jets away. Even after you watch it, you can replay it and you still can't pick out exactly where it is, it's camouflaged so perfectly.

Cool though that one of the TED speakers picked up on this amazing piece of footage and did a talk about their camouflage capabilities.

Okay, yeah, if their learning is that fast that's pretty drat cool. I always thought their real show of insight was in problem solving and figuring out problems on their own with no help. Wasn't there another story at a marine research lab where they kept coming in in the morning to find fish were missing out of one of their tanks. They eventually set up a webcam at night and saw that an octopus in another tank not only figured out how to open the hatch on his tank, he would get out, crawl over to the other tank, and then steal a fish from that tank. After he was done, he would return to his tank and then close the latch behind him. This is the weirdest/coolest derail I've seen in a while.

Has Stallone had more plastic surgery that fixed the trainwreck that is his face, or did they basically use a picture of him from 20 years ago? Dude is looking pretty fresh-faced in that poster. Seems like more than even heavy photoshopping could accomplish considering he was starting to look like some patchwork frankensteins monster.
