we've been burning through the star treks during quarantine and just started Enterprise season 3, and the escalation of EXPLOSIONS AND TITS AND MARINES is a tad concerning. was surprisingly fun until now also everyone's behavior has gotten more extreme. Archer's screaming at everyone and T'pol has gone from cold and sardonic to either making doe eyes or looking like she was crying between takes i assume this is Rick Berman's fault Durf has issued a correction as of 07:02 on Jun 14, 2021 |

I know they're going to do their damndest to make MGS boring enough for general audiences and I legit hope it succeeds just so they're forced to have a sequel where Snake dies in the first 10 minutes and is replaced by a guy we haven't seen before whining about his girlfriend for the rest of the film, amidst constant insane nonsense starring Timothée Chalamet as Raiden

also weirdest/funniest thing about the Expanse show was when one of the actors was outed as a sex pest so they killed their character off-camera then cut to an obvious doctored still representing their floating dead body. i mean they did their best given the situation but they basically gave them the Poochy treatment. i had to rewind a few times to understand wtf just happened also this was kinda fun but a bit silly to put in the final climactic scene of the series. its like a fanboy Xcom roster Durf has issued a correction as of 10:56 on Feb 2, 2022 |

boba fett isnt as bad as I thought it would be. Temuera is having fun and the 2nd ep had some great moments. 1st and 3rd are bad tho and make me wonder if Rodriguez should direct anything anymore. i'll assume it has something to do with being a control freak and not delegating to people who know how to make action look good

mastershakeman posted:The action in alita was great , was that Rodriguez just relying on James Cameron's old storyboards or something I'm assuming the CGI team handled everything based on his notes/storyboards/flailing. In Boba it seems like he's trying to do everything in camera which isn't the best if you're trying to make speeders or a 60 year old look fast. The edits are weird and laggy feeling too.

also re: film/TV adaptations of books, my wife is insanely well-read and hated all of them until.... amazon's Reacher. she reads tons of smarty books but has a thing for pulp and thinks the show nails the source material (escapist trash). I for one think the action is a lot more brutal and better choreographed than in the terrible trailers, which made it look like a Hallmark film. And deliberate or not the Reacher actor has a stilted autistic sociopath thing going on which makes him more than pure tough guy fantasy. Also Guillermo from the funny vampire show plays the coroner. mostly I'm just waiting to see what they do with Herzog's character from the film, and if we see any on-screen allusion to Reacher's MONSTER HOG.
