It's also something that appeared after Cline's book, so it just begs the question, why isn't there some made-up 2030-2040s pop culture roaming about?


That would require creativity, something which doesnt interact with Rp1 in any sense

DC Murderverse posted:

based on everything i've heard and read about RPO, i am incredibly impressed that Cline had the self-control to not follow that with "...which is a song from the 1980s by Billy Idol"

actually, that paragraph is also very indicative of who exactly the book is aimed at: people who can picture "The 1980s" in their head. You point out that there's no description of the dance moves, but there's no description of anything. He literally just says that everything "indicate[s] that the time period is the late 1980s." in 20 years that will mean basically nothing to anyone picking up the book unless they have a preconceived notion of what the 1980s looked like. a 20-something in 2030 is gonna pick up this book and immediately say "this is loving garbage" because all of the references are going to be even more out of date; it's like one of those Looney Tunes shorts that no one watches anymore because it's just a series of caricatures of celebrities that most people don't remember. And those references are all it has going for it because this sort of story (even ignoring the blatant subtext of "just lose yourself in this world to get away from your troubles, nothing wrong with that!!) is told much more effectively in a million other books about unexciting white boys going on an adventure to save the world.

There's barely any dialogue in Blame!. There's no way that could have a proper live action adaptation.

I want there to be one, but I just don't see it happening.

Is there narration? Could do it like that french movie that 12 Monkeys is a remake of.

ACES CURE PLANES posted:

No, it's pretty much just a broken, ancient machine wandering through fantastical settings, either singlemindedly pursuing his mission or killing things in his way. And there's a touch of the focus character being an unreliable narrator, and a lot of questions raised that are purposefully never answered.

It's why it'd never survive being worked on by a major studio.



Well that's sorta Star Trek 1 and 4, but the machines are the antagonist

How the hell have either of those given any answers? Bojack merely learned to be a slightly less crappy person and Night In The Woods explicitly ends with the main character going "We're all going to die, and it's going to hurt but that means it was meaningful so whatever, I guess?". How is that having any hope for the future?

I just don't understand the mentality of "You are going to fail but there is value in your struggle". I need results. Otherwise, why waste all that effort? As obnoxious as RPO sounds, if the world was destroyed by global warming, I'd also prefer to lock myself in VR because there's no way to fix the unfixable.

Regardless of quality, Robin Hood is gonna bomb hard. Who cares about Robin Hood in 2017? It seems studios haven't gotten the message that no one cares about English legends and old stories anymore.

I really don't know why "Origins" is still used as a subtitle. I reflexively associate it with lazy hackery.

I almost didn't play Dragon Age Origins for that reason.

Robin hood is very thematically relevant to modern times

That's because that whole thing was thoroughly hosed with. When Scott was originally developing it with Crowe in mind, the script was called Nottingham, and the idea was that the Sheriff of Nottingham and Robin Hood were the same person. Scott and the studio got cold feet and it was re-tooled into a traditional story.

So, the sherrif was creating a weak opposition to justify his tyranny, and then he cant stop it? Like that Force Awakens game?

Was looking at the weekend box office returns and there are some really impressive bombs being put out this holiday/star wars season:
  • The Greatest Showman(3000 theater opening, reported $84 million budget) made $13 million through it's first weekend. No international numbers reported yet but it's a biopic about an American guy, the sort of movie that frequently do not get big international pushes

  • Downsizing(2700 theaters, $68 million budget) made $5 million this wekend. Can't see weirdo sci fi dramedy making any money overseas

  • Father Figures(2900 theaters, but a modest $25 million budget) made just $3 million. No reason to expect any international run for an R rated english language comedy

  • Finally, John Cena animated vehicle Ferdinand(initial opening of 3600 theaters, $111 million budget) has made $34 million worldwide through two weeks
I dunno if the January failure dumping ground has expanded to December now or what but that's a lot of expensive fuckups over a couple weeks. They're all pretty commercial films that have no chance at major awards too

Ferdinand is reviewing well at least, it'll probably have legs for another month as parents take their kids to a movie if they're not old enough for star wars
Downsizing reviews ping it as a "think of those less fortunate" for liberals
I still want to see Showman, but it sounds more like a generic "follow your dreams" movie with barnum's name mad-libs'd in.
