random question, I always wondered in Hong Kong action movies from the 80s-90s, when they had random white dudes show up did they speak fluent cantonese or was it dubbed

a lovely king posted:Not quite the same but when my grandparents were teaching English in China in the late 80s/early 90s, a movie rolled into town and picked out my grandfather (one of the few Westerners in the city) to be in the film. It was something of a disaster movie about plucky Chinese engineers stopping a dam collapse or some such, my grandfather played the arrogant Russian dam expert who poo poohs our heroes initially. I tried asking the ID thread about a movie that was supposedly number 1 in china in recent weeks that was talked about on NPR and got nothing, so yeah good luck If the Wandering Earth is any indication the Chinese still have a chip on their shoulder about Russia being big red brother

Last Action Hero is great but the only thing that bugs me is when he's in the real world and tears the door off its hinges

Compared to say, Collateral, which I cherish and remember well. There’s definitely a diminishing return particularly with the world building

They cast Ryan G and Ana de Armas but they aren’t even in a weird parasocial relationship

Gray Man is forgettable the only thing left is for The Culture to write 100 tweet threads about why Chris Evans' character is gay and Ryan G's character is gay and they are gay for each other

married but discreet posted:I totally checked out of John Wick after the second, the worldbuilding was so cringey. They really forgot what made the first one so good - the concept of a man insanely brutally slaughtering hundreds of people cause they killed his dog. see that wasn't even the worst part for me. Everyone kills people in broad daylight and civs either don't notice or look away which leads me to believe it's a world where people have to do wet poo poo like you drive for uber. Which is neat the high table stuff? Oooh look at me I run the high table from Mt Everest aka The Highest Table nobody gives a gently caress

Lily Catts posted:on topic of guys who go on killing sprees because someone offed their dog (or tried to), how's Equilibrium? I saw it on a bus but I didn't pay attention much, but one of the kills was really sick (the face lopped off one) I didn’t want to see it at the time of release because I was offended by its Clear matrix coattail riding It’s stupid fun.

Big Dick Cheney posted:Is the slang in the first Mad max movie supposed to be dystopian future slang or just Australian slang? Not trying to make a joke, I am not very familiar with Australian slang. idk but in FR they say schlanger and i aint never heard an aussie say it but if an aussie says you eat it, can probably figure it out based on context clues

I was confused too that would suggest it really didn't know how its own technology worked and either she did, or she got REALLY lucky that the Yautja didn't

flashy_mcflash posted:I caught KILL earlier this month and it loving rocks. Very similar to The Raid but horizontal instead of vertical. I actually did have a question what happened with the mole guy who jammed the phones and promised to help with the hammer but stood by and did nothing? It looked like him and 3 guys wanted to jump off and the guys ahead of him ate poo poo doing it? It cut after he watched them do it and iirc he just never showed up again

I enjoy movies about movies more than most so those aspects are fine to me but it def got bogged down a bit in the beginning with the relational stuff which is ironic because they would joke about the edit though more in a "can you believe they want to edit down perfection?!" kind of way that those kinda movies can get about themselves. Few things muddled the motivation to me too. If Gosling (not remembering names sorry. Nature of movies about movies for me, esp with the added stunt versions of characters) was in physical pain and even disabled for a bit could he not be given some slack for being unreachable? The mystery aspect did make it hard to know or care who the villains were though once revealedATJ being the bad guy was fun but probably needed more of that The Journey trailer was honestly so much funner energy for me Also 2 couples left during my screening lol probably that aforementioned buildup in the beginning bored them to death
