FreudianSlippers posted:Exactly. In a post-American Pie world where all sex comedies have tits galore and everybody openly swears like a sailor being coy and beating around the bush with innuendo is pointless. Not necessarily. Being coy and beating around the bush can have an attractiveness different from being open and upfront. Innuendo is not pointless--the innuendo is the point.

Each episode of Thundarr takes place in a different part of post apocalyptic America. If you watch the show in episode order and pay attention to geographical and architectural tells, you can actually track his path on a map.

Femur posted:i have a bad memory overall, i can't remember most of my childhood like at all. And I can't remember or be sure of any dream I've ever had, but reading the description when yall were discussing this, I felt that I've had that happened, and thought" this is a thing separate from dreams? " Sleep paralysis is not a dream where you can't move you're body. It's a state of, if not full awareness, at least a much greater level of awareness then you have during most dreams. You may be able to see and hear as if you were awake. More over, while you typically forget dreams after waking, I've generally found it much easier to recall the few occasions that I've had sleep paralysis. When you have a dream where you're falling or dying, you generally wake up afterwards (or otherwise drift off into a different dream). If you have sleep paralysis, you might just be stuck on the bed for ten or fifteen minutes, or a couple hours, until your body decides it's convenient to change consciousness.

Femur posted:I guess the problem for me was that I assume my experience is everyones. like I don't dream like you at all. I don't even believe I dream at all. I just wake up and the day goes on. sometimes I think I experience something, than wake up worried/scared, until it clears and relax that it wasn't real. I assume this is just dreaming. So like if i eeriely can't move, a great pressure coming over me, then suddenly I can, well, to me, the before was a dream. I don't think it's so much that it isn't the same process for everyone, so much as you're just describing a dream, and sleep paralysis isn't that. As far as I'm aware, I've only experienced it three times in my life (and there was a 20+ year gap between the first two). I don't think it's a common thing at all, it's just memorable if it does happen.

Young Freud posted:JP is essentially Westworld except with robot cowboys, knights, and Romans, it's dinosaurs. For all of his technothriller bonafides, Crichton was a pseudo-scientific Luddite. The HBO Westworld takes a lot of it's ideas from the sequel film Futureworld, as well. Futureworld is also an example of a Jurassic Park-type film where everything works as intended.

Mischalaniouse posted:It kinda reminds me of how Konami farms out Silent Hill to whichever studio is cheapest and treats its high profile "auteurs" like Kojima like poo poo because the execs literally believe that the talent who creates the game doesn't matter. I think I had a much better understanding of Konami (and Capcom and some other game companies) once I learned that it's by and large a gambling machine company that just produces video games on the side.

PJOmega posted:It's difficult to discuss white washing because each individual example can be explained or justified. The issue is when looked at as a whole you can see that there is a glut of roles that could have been played by an actor of non-european decent but mysteriously they aren't. The problem I have with this issue is that all roles are "roles that could have been played by an actor of non-european decent." The movement doesn't seem to be pushing for more minority roles in big budget films so much as it seems to be pushing for minority roles in very specific films. The movement takes it as a given that certain roles are meant for whites and certain roles are meant for asians/blacks and that the problem is that white actors are moving in on minority parts. Which is to say, if white actors would just be kind enough not to encroach, then there wouldn't be any need to address the fact that white actors and white parts tremendously outnumber and outpay minority actors and parts.

Red Bones posted:Is there a greater theme/idea that ties the whole Dark Tower series together? Because whenever anyone is discussing it, it sounds all over the place. And for such a weird story the trailer seems really... generic, I guess? It gives me the same vibes as something like The Last Witch Hunter, where it looks like some fairly rote fantasy/genre fiction ideas without much visual flair or distinctiveness tying it all together. Child, Narnia portal, some goblins, a cool man, a bad man, and a vaguely post-apocalyptic world. And you guys are talking about living trains and lobster men! That trailer could have used a lobster man. The major unifying theme (at least in the books) is one of decay, of things being worn down and falling apart. The narrative reason that all these disparate elements (robot trains, lobster men, goblins, arthurian knights, cowboys, etc) are mixing together is that the boundaries that would have separated them are collapsing. The eponymous tower is (in some worlds, literally) a support beam that keeps each world from collapsing in on itself, and it's weakening.

Inspector Gesicht posted:Is the margin of success for a movie a gross that is double the cost of production and marketing combined? Like a 100 mil picture with 50 mil marketing should break even at 300 mil? This doesn't count the Net because the Net does not exist. There are a hundred other factors that can factor into that, so it's hard to say for certain. In particular, merchandising. A film that breaks even can still be a success if it pushed enough t-shirts and action figures.
