I might check out Doctor Strange. I begrudgingly see marvel movies and end up enjoying them so gently caress it why not.

I like and agree with a lot of RLM's various movie opinions but I think they're a bit weird about "racial pandering" or what ever when ever a non-white person is ever in any of the nerd poo poo they like.

I get the point that they're trying to say that the industry is pandering to minorities for money but they say it in the worst ways possible more often than not.

The only real complaint I had about the movie was how much it felt like all the other marvel movies. NO Mcguffin though so that was good and the villian made sense and yeah it was great to look at.


Go watch it it's pretty good I don't know how anyone can actively dislike this movie

The effects are legit the one good thing in DS. if I was stoned as gently caress I might have enjoyed it. It has very cool 2001/Inception/ Enter the Void stuff going on.
The first trip scene was cool. Everything leading up to it bored me but once that happened I sat up for a while.

I dunno what to cut though from the beginning. It established a lot at least.

I'm just glad Marvel didn't challenge my western sensibilities by casting Asian actors for a movie set predominantly in Asia.

Except for tubby comic relief Asian. Haha, so fat, so funny.

I only saw the movie because Tilda Swindon was in it sooo..... I mean I get it?

When you enter a new tax bracket all of your taxable income is not in that bracket.


Why the gently caress is everyone so ignorant of taxes? Anyway that movie received huge tax breaks possibly to the point that the government paid them to make that movie, but it had nothing to do with what dumbass jack said.

You're confusing two tax schemes here. A movie that loses a ton of money offsets the taxes that a studio would have to pay on movies that make money (this is the first tax scheme). This was a lot easier to do in the 80s, before some of the loopholes were closed. Basically you'd have a bunch of dentists or other guys with a lot of taxable income who would make a movie that is paid for mostly through tax credits from Germany or Canada (which is the second tax scheme), and that movie would lose a ton of "money" for its investors, who could then subtract the amount they "invested" into the movie from their real incomes when it came time to pay their income tax.

You're still paying 10 to lose 8 to get back 6 from the gov so you still lose money. It's not the producers.

I wonder how ScarJo will hold up in GITS. I don't think she's a particularly good actor and I never understood why people were clamouring for a Black Widow marvel movie, that character is boring as gently caress.
Her best film was Under the Skin but I think that was a combination of it being a loving excellent film and the fact that she had very little dialogue.

I can't remember the character in GITS at all, I saw it years ago but is the ScarJo character an android? Like will she act non-human? Cos she's not bad at that (I liked her in Her as a robot)

I would say she'll do pretty well actually considering how robotic her acting is.
