I liked MH at the time, though I kinda hate season 3. But yeah the movie is really fuckin' boring and lame.

Yeah I never finished season 3. I have the first 2 seasons on DVD but just kinda lost interest interest shortly after Jay died(?)

It took me until my twenties before I could handle the Nazi face-melting scene in Raiders. And they show that scene unedited on broadcast TV.

That's because Nazis are unquestionably evil and it's completely acceptable to show whatever happening to them :colbert: :911:

Mystery Inc already did that though. It had an episode where the Scooby Gang went to a convention for mystery solving teens. Jabberjaw, the Funky Phantom, and the talking dune buggy were all there.

To be fair to him, if he made more movies like The Last Airbender I would probably go see them in the theater. Although it was terrible, it was also extremely hilarious.

I saw The Last Airbender at a drive in theater that let it go out of focus halfway through the movie and never fixed the problem. I'm still not sure if I'm upset by that or not

Were the aliens in signs even antagonistic? The one that made it to tv was just hanging around in a back garden and one at some point got locked inside a room and was trying to escape. I don't even remember what the at the end of the film was doing. Was it holding the son hostage?

The one at the end attempted to murder the son with a gas it shot from its wrist but the son was having an asthma attack and didn't breathe any of it in

Well, I mean more in the sense that no major plot details are changed. Like, if you compare the Walking Dead comic to the show, the broad strokes are the same but a lot of the specifics of events are different between the two. Not to mention stuff like Rick still having both of his arms in the show.

Meanwhile, the One Piece anime (for example) adds filler and stretches out scenes, but is largely a very faithful adaptation of the One Piece manga. Stuff typically happens in both in the same way.

The arm thing could easily be because looking back he regrets having him lose the hand

I think it looks cool and fun as well but I couldn't nitpick things. Power Rangers came out when I was in preschool and I don't remember many details beyond they would fight monsters and it was rad as hell.

Also, you suddenly have five friends where before you had none.

It would be kind of funny if the kids discovered that, even with their shared destiny and awesome powers, they don't really like each other all that much.

Like that won't happen anyway? The question would be if it's played up Grimdarkly or goofy like a 90s buddy film.

Nah, Bay is probably Hollywood liberal, but also realizes fascism pays better. His most humanist film (The Island) was also his only commercial failure, and then he re-used clips from it in Transformers 3, his most right wing film, there's gotta be at least some self-awareness going on there.

Wasn't that because stuntmen got injured doing the stunt and rather than do another take he just reused old footage that was close enough?

The only jobs in America that still have decent unions are the entertainment industry and cops. The latter because they have guns and are quite literally the law so busting their unions is a bit tricky.

Why not just use subs? That's what I prefer, so I hear the real voice and the original actor's inflection during a scene.

I wish someone would greenlight a modern version of Emperor of the North.

I'd prefer it if they directed it too, their producing efforts haven't been all that great. Their The Ladykillers remake was decent, but I heard their remake of Gambit was horrible and got a really limited release.

A proper Scarface remake should take plenty of time to mock the kind of idiots who think Tony Montana is a good role model.

Jupitor Ascending is the only movie mentioned that merit a retrospective after a few years. It has the type of all out sincere type of detailed lunacy that the best type of beloved cult movies tend to have (from Robot Jox to I don't know, Near Dark or something). The other movies mentioned (Suicide Squad, Pan, etc) are crass commercial failures with nothing interesting to exhume.
