I loved Reloaded and was so hype to see Revolutions in the theater, and have never been let down so hard. "What if instead of exploring literally any possible weird theory that we've brought up, we just shoot everything"

e: ^^^^ Yeah, his speech is actually pretty coherent, was that in question? I never thought it was. Somewhere there's a universe where the third Matrix movie was all about the Merovingian and other remnants of the previous cycles joining up with or fighting Neo and oh wait never mind that's American Gods. Neo Rasa posted:One that straight up looks better in the trailer is during the big car chase, there's a part where an agent like jumps off an overpass or something and lands on a car, bouncing off it to make its way closer to the heroes. It looks REALLY bad in the movie the same way the burly brawl scenes does, and is particularly cartoony because it happens so fast. But in the trailer when the agent lands on the car it goes into bullet time and you see a way more detailed depiction of the car's hood collapsing and the windshield breaking and stuff. But that's exactly how it does happen in the movie? Unless someone changed the Matrix again. precision fucked around with this message at 19:03 on Mar 19, 2017 |

I haven't watched it in a long rear end time but one of the special features on Reloaded was "the making of the freeway scene" and holy poo poo, it is impressive and excessive

The Animatrix had some really good poo poo in it. I remember all the internet rumor mills speculating about the Wachowskis having cameos in the movies and nobody recognizing them because they didn't give photo interviews or something? Anything come of that?

Ammanas posted:The Matrix owns, Reloaded owns and Revolutions also owns. Sure sure they get up their own rear end a whole bunch but good films should. You get poo poo like the Avengers which seems hugely ironic and it's like who cares? But the Matrix sequels cared a whole loving lot I still like Reloaded a lot, I've never gone back on that, but Revolutions has been worse every time I've watched it. Mostly, again, because it simply has too much dull action with what feels like no stakes. The Battle of Zion was clearly intended to evoke the end of Return of the Jedi or similar but it falls so flat in that ambition, it's just dreadfully boring.

Rupert Grint produced and stars in the Crackle original series Snatch The trailer is terrible/awesome but the show proper (only watched episode 1 so far) is actually not bad at all and is kinda like Edgar Wright does Guy Ritchie, it's not bad!

Man, American wrestling is so lame now. Has been for a good, what, 15 years? Jesus. Every now and then I'll try to watch RAW but the magic is so far gone it's depressing. I don't know what happened, did the public at large just suddenly go "Nah, we don't want plot lines about an undead wizard wrestler crucifying the company's owner's daughter on a cross and then marrying her"

Lobok posted:Maybe they saw the success of the Rock and realized your ticket to stardom requires nothing more gimmicky than an arched eyebrow. Says someone who clearly never saw The Rock in his heyday. Dwayne Johnson is a gift to us from on high and has better comedic chops than most comedians! It did make my heart grow a bit when Steve Austin said a while back that he's known gay wrestlers and he has no problem with gay marriage.

Casimir Radon posted:Addams Family Values is better than the first one. But did worse at the box office. Significantly. I still wish the Munsters TV reboot had taken off, I really really enjoyed Eddie Izzard and hell everyone in it. And, in looking it up just now, I notice that Bryan Fuller was behind it because of course he was. It's called Mockingbird Lane and it's worth a watch (there's only one episode)

FilthyImp posted:Best Blair is that Sci-fi Channel pseudomentary Curse of the Blair Witch K. Waste posted:The best Blair Witch movie is still The Burkittsville 7. Not sure which one of these I agree with more so I'll just quote them both. I really liked the Blair Witch remake when I saw it (even though I think I posted some negativity about it) but (and this is probably why I posted negativity) you can't really compare the remake to the original; superficial similarities in the text are dwarfed by the differences in not just the subtext but the metatext as well.

well why not posted:Was he actually a heroin addict or did he simply play one? I've seen him shoot up with my own two eyes.

well why not posted:Wow, what a cool guy he is. I thought "Jared Leto is a tool" was well known, not just because of the stuff I said! e: I would challenge the assertion that "every" rock star had sex with girls under 16. The vast majority had sex with girls who were under 20 for sure, and most of them with girls under 18, but I sincerely believe there is such a thing as an ethical celebrity. I guess it depends on what the definition of an "A-list rock star" is though - if we're just talking about the Stones, Aerosmith, Zeppelin, the Beatles etc then sure precision fucked around with this message at 17:41 on Nov 3, 2017 |
