There is! German forces invaded North Africa in 1941 and were eventually pushed out towards the end of 1942. The campaign was essentially a failure as they were weakened by long supply lines and a well-stocked British army. Content: In World War Z there's a (lite spoilers)POW in South Korea who says North Koreans have repelled the zombies because the government ripped out the population's teeth to prevent them from chomping on people. The POW's teeth have also been ripped off.

VoidBurger posted:The Ancient Gods are us, the corporation is Hollywood. Hollywood uses a library dumb horror tropes to entertain and appease us in the same way the mysterious company has a zoo of monsters to unleash on their stereotypical victims, in order to appease the gods. The company even forced those characters into roles they don't actually fit into, by chemically altering them and their environment, which is examining how dumb the stereotypes are in the first place. (The Fool is the smartest person in the movie, the Athlete has a scholarship, the Scholar is the new athlete, the Whore is in a committed relationship, and the Virgin isn't a virgin.) Jimbo Jaggins posted:Exactly, this guy gets it. My favorite part of the film is when the football player drives the motorcycle into the invisible wall.

VoidBurger posted:That was why it was funny, to hear the heroic music swell when we all knew he didn't have a chance. It is a comedy movie. Exactly, this person gets it. I also like that there's an intern which speaks to how corporate the organization is. Hope that dude was getting college credit. That purge sequence is perfect with netflix, just pause and rewatch to check out all of the monitors.

Okay, after this movie, we have to deconstruct/find disappointing another film. I suggest Inception.

Rick Moranis' character is great. He's really in love with this woman but is totally cool with rejection and even says she should bring her date to his party. He hosts a badass party with a great budget. And, when this hot chicks about to leave he tells her not to go and instead they should dance. Then they do. Even when he hears a horrible hellbeast from his bedroom, his response is "Okay guys, who brought the dog" and grins really big. Dude's not even pissed, let's the party keep rolling. Also he lures the beast away from his apartment to prevent it from terrorizing his party guests.

Professor Shark posted:I watched the HD version of 2001, and noticed that in the scene where Dave blasts his way back into the ship, once he's successfully gotten the outer door shut he has a triumphant smile on his face. The camera then immediately cuts back to HAL and lingers. Please actually do that thing about chess, because I do not know enough about chess to know if that's right either. And also now I really want to watch that movie again.

I'm watching the long extended director's cut version and it's a lot better than the theater version. Has the pirate comics as an animated segment breaking up the main story. E. A good moment is when Rorschach is captured the cops are all wailing on him in the street. They don't really approach him one by one, they gang up on him.

Ariel is only wearing a bra for half of the movie I’m body positive; positive that filthy body should have been covered up! Her world is a nudist colony that shames mammal tits only (and only on women!!) hosed up

This is about the boss baby sequel The villain runs a private school but is actually a very smart baby He is constantly depicted eating sugary snacks At first I thought it was just a joke about kids liking candy And then the movie reveals his master plan to overthrow parents’ tyranny. It’s implied that his parents didn’t let him eat junk food. His candy eating is a reflection of his rebellion and also what leads to his downfall. If he had listened to them in the first place he wouldn’t have lost. That’s the only subtle thing about the movie.

It’s one of my favorite alt realities I like the implication that the news regularly reports on the Truman show Like all media is centered around this one television show

flatluigi posted:to be fair, most of the time King's characters are not really in a position to just ignore whatever's happening around/to them and look at it academically The Outsider was enjoyable for that. E. I don’t actually like much of what happens post the Coach’s death besides all the small town emotional drama. I like the idea that the Sheriff encountered the impossible and has to live with the consequences of using logic against it. N. Senada has a new favorite as of 08:28 on Dec 10, 2023 |
