The first movie was actually based on the writer's (Kevin Grievous) experiences with interracial dating. Underworld: Rise of the Lycans also have one of the goofiest sex scenes ever filmed:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HAq1hL2in4k (not very nws, but its still probably not a good idea to watch it work)

Improbable Lobster posted:I'd recommend looking up some of the Valerian and Laureline comics, they're really excellent pulp sci-fi. Very goofy in the same way that The Fifth Element was. I'd recommend Circles Of Power, it's my personal favourite and it's the one that The Fifth Element ripped off. Considering that the artist from that comic was the one who provided concept art I wouldn't call it "ripped off".

A Buttery Pastry posted:Define "incredibly popular". Is that among the general public, or specifically people who are into comic books? I think I might have heard of it once, though I didn't realize that until I looked up the Danish name of the series just now. Its one of the top five selling french comics. You should check out the danish editions btw, they have a lot of extra material like scetches and articles about comic and the creators.

A Buttery Pastry posted:Being popular in terms of French comic books doesn't necessarily mean it has a ton of cultural cachet with the general European public does it? Sorta like how in terms of American comic book heroes, only a few had any presence in the public's awareness, largely born out of their television versions. quote:Which is not to say the movie can't be successful, but counting on comic book fans to carry the movie doesn't seem like a great idea.

Anonymous Zebra posted:There was a point early on in Season 2 of LOST where people were theorizing Michelle Rodriguez was playing a character off her usual role and then the very first flashback of her character revealed that she was a hardass female cop arguing with her hardass female cop mother, and I actually remember laughing at how she was basically never going to play anything different. She doesn't really want to play anything else: Michelle Rodriguez posted:I was typecast the minute I did a film called Girlfight years ago [...] you allow yourself to be typecast. If I decided I didn't want to be typecast tomorrow, I'd just go do an indie film where I play some poor girl who goes through some excruciating experience and win myself an award for crying or being raped or playing someone with mental illness. But at the end of the day, I'm not in it for the acting. If I were in it for the acting then I would be worried about people not giving me the opportunity to express my vast array of emotions on the screen.

Lena Horne had the part, until MGM chief Louis B. Mayer stepped in and refused to show a real interracial couple onscreen" "Light-skinned black character played by white woman (Lombard is a mix of Lakota, Russian, and Swiss)"

Shaman Ooglaboogla posted:I just saw it, it wasn't bad or anything. It was exactly what I have come to expect from a Disney live action movie in the same vein as the new Star Wars/Marvel. It was OK with the action, some fine humor, you got to see references to things and the characters did what you expect. There was a weak villain whose motivation was to be a one movie villain. If you go to see the Marvel movies, you would probably enjoy this. Even by PotC standards it was completely nonsensical.

To be fair, the british have stolen so many pieces of egyptian history that it could almost pass as Egypt,
