Mierenneuker posted:It's a good movie dragged down by it pretending there was a huge conflict that didn't happen. I know movies based on a true story aren't going to be 100% accurate but with Sully it was blatantly obvious they were exaggerating and creating villains because they feared the facts alone weren't entertaining enough. ChickenMedium posted:Was Sully actually good? I refused to see it when the trailers made it look like there was any kind of controversy about what happened. The real Sully was widely and immediately praised as a hero and any backlash at all was extremely minimal. I just don't know how or why you'd want to make that into a movie except as a way to counteract all the people who conflated the actual events of Sully with the fictional events of Flight. I'm annoyed that people now hate and blame the real aviation security/investigation agencies for giving Sully such a hard time - when in reality they didn't. They did their loving job of investigating a controlled landing. The movie made people less trusting in the institutions made to protect them, because they made up that conflict for the movie.

Not investing into getting decent broadband everywhere is for a country like not investing in railways in the 19th century or a power grid in the early 20th. You are wilfully crippling yourself and your economic power by ignoring the most important infrastructure that is used for everything for the next few decades at least. Yeah, it's expensive opening up the ground yet again to put in new cables, but it is a lot more expensive in the long run if you don't.

At one point they attempted to sell it to Donald Trump's Scottish gold course. Don't know why he didn't go for it as everything he owns is tacky. Paint it gold and he will put it up where the Lincoln Memorial stands now.

MrBling posted:The only time I remember hearing about it was when Arnold wanted to do his own dub for a movie and he was basically told that, being Austrian and from that particular area of Austria, he sounded like a farmer when he spoke German. Most Germans would need subtitles to understand the Styrian dialect. Although Schwarzenegger can speak nearly flawless English and High German if he wants, but for his image the broad accent (English) and dialect (German) is what he uses except in very rare instances.

dont even fink about it posted:It takes her four years and a favor to get something good after Episode I, exactly as I said. Portman clearly needs a director who cares about getting the best performance out of her, because then she is absolutely amazing. If the director is "whatever" you get Star Wars, Thor and similar "I'm here, give me my cheque"-performances.

The last season is a dream by Roseanne after Dan died after a heart attack, of course nothing fits at all to the other seasons or the tone of the rest of the show. To end it on a positive note I guess?

Which I always found odd, since most Muslims would agree to that in the first place, as he is the last Prophet before Mohammed and thus pretty rad for them.

Macarius Wrench posted:
I know, the Internet is all about stupid exaggeration, but holy poo poo, did the director sleep with your mom or something? It was a okayish movie at best with some nice ideas and a tremendous look and art direction (much stolen from the Anime). It was nowhere near as good as the Anime, and it was unexciting outside of the design, but "worst movie"? Worse than Pixels? It wasn't even the worst big budget movie this year. Or of the weekend it started on. Not having the classic opening song was the biggest mistake of the movie (since the whole whitewashing thing was at least justified in-story I don't dock it on it too much).

FilthyImp posted:Probably not around the world, but I'll remind you that March saw an entire replay of every episode from every season on Twitch and it was crazy popular. Crazy popular on Twitch is something like 100-200k viewers, which is a drop in the bucket when your movie requires to sell 50-100 million tickets to be successful. Nerd poo poo and nostalgia are very popular, but sometimes it's easy to overestimate how much if you don't look also outside of the scene (or bubble as it is now called).

What has the world come to if you can't build (or at least sell) a successful movie on the premise of being afraid of being seen as gay. Baywatch at least leaned into its ridiculousness and the people making it had fun doing so. And the Rock.

Maxwell Lord posted:Honestly if you look at the franchise history the Enterprise gets clowned on a LOT. That's because Star Trek is basically tall ships IN SPACE, and tall ships always limped away heavily damaged in a equal or nearly equal fight, simply because offense was so much better than defense - wood, which also splintered and maimed killed a lot of people this way -, being a slow moving target, that was very slow to manoeuvrer (the actions you see on screen inside of seconds in movies often took dozens of minutes or even hours in reality) and the ships made out of wood and canvas were of course comparably fragile. However, being made out of wood they were also comparably easy to repair again. Translating this to space combat makes it seem quite odd, even with magic like shields added.

SuperMechagodzilla posted:That's oddly vague. As someone who watched Kimba the White Lion a lot on TV as kid, it was supremely odd to see The Lion King in cinema, which was very similar in many parts, only with a lot more songs, simplified story and a crappier main character. My first encounter with the Hollywood adaption process. But to be honest, outside from the premise (orphan Lion cub as main protagonist trying to lead) and several scenes that are basically 1:1 taken from the Anime it wasn't very similar at all. Kimba grew up around humans and humans play a major role in the series.

Less begats and more story, and you sympathise with the main character, but it really runs off the rails at the end. Well, if you don't get another season what should you do? Writing a quick conclusion in a drug haze, blowing it all up was probably the easiest choice.

got any sevens posted:Blade Runner isnt a biopic but the main character loves a two year old I always found the short life span of the Replicants an odd idea - you spend a lot of money and effort to make them nearly indistinguishable from humans, including fake photographs and mementos, memories and fear, only to throw it all away after a lifespan that's shorter than that of my current PC. Maybe the new movie goes deeper into the whole thing.

It probably wouldn't have made for a great blockbuster, but it would have been a terrific character drama. But it makes sense why it didn't get made. So he - a Roman general and citizen- travels back in time to kill Jesus before he is killed by Romans? And isn't his son dead?
