mystes posted:I think they specifically designed it so that it fits into the same continuity and it's technically a sequel and not a reboot but I have zero memory of the first one and could not explain how they actually worked this not-quite-rebootness into the movie, and definitely in practical terms it's better to think of it as a reboot easy, they just never bring up the events of the first film

it drives me insane that they can't just go hire people to make a billion low-budget comedies. just go out on the streets and rented apartments and maybe a studio for a couple scenes so you can get the tax breaks and off you go. i truly hate watching a comedy only have six or eight episodes in a season because they blew a ton of money on exterior night scenes and crane shots.

just do what the wga is demanding: longer and bigger writer rooms with more writers on set, and couple that with as few producer interference "notes" as possible. not everything is going to Fury Road or the LotR trilogy (two great examples of auteurs getting as far away from Hollywood as possible and making great works), but netflix's little tricks like "cram as much as possible into the pilot" and "story changing actions can only happen in the last three minutes of an episode " don't matter for poo poo if the actual show is rotten

rotor posted:pretty much this. It was the only part of the movie that i hadnt seen in a movie before. Other than that scene it was just sort of tedious action bullshit. The scene in the disco with people who kept cabbage patchin when dude were gettin blown away left & right? The ridiculous scene with the Very Japanese Ninjas or whatever? I unironically enjoyed that they remade almost the entirety of The Warriors within the movie. it was a greatly done movie but there's a reason they don't sell ben and jerrys in half gallon tubs

Kenny Logins posted:i've never met a famous. makes it much easier to hate them it sucks. people feel parasocially entitled to your time and attention and many don't understand the difference between you and the characters you've portrayed. you're expected to maintain an expensive lifestyle but you're always struggling to get the next job to maintain it. you can almost never put down roots because your job will take you away for months at a time and you can never be sure that someone's intentions are driven by actual interest or to leech off of your success. to be famous is to be miserable and lonely.

the movie definitely suffered from being released too late to be contemporary and too soon to be nostalgia bait. it holds up on a rewatch because Edgar Wright is a really good writer-director.

Adventures of the Starkiller, as taken from the Journal of the Whills, Saga 1: The Star Wars Star Wars is one of only a handful of examples of outside producers holding an auteur back to make a good film. once he became too powerful for criticism, it all took a dive. give me ep 6 kashyyyk dammit

the new MI wasn't anything groundbreaking, but did the audience two real solids. the twist wasn't dragged out for the whole movie: the audience was shown pretty much right away and the characters figured it out very quickly. also the gags were good without laugh track reaction shots included. a wonderful action movie

Sagebrush posted:I saw an clip of Natalie Portman once where she was saying she's kinda bummed out that her character in garden state is the poster girl for Manic Pixie Dream Girl that fixes the depressed loser. She did the movie when she was 20 or something and obviously it was written by Zach Braff so it's all his hangups and fantasies, not her fault, but her and Zooey Deschanel get all the slag any time jezebel etc wants to complain about the archetype I'm always amazed when actors get poo poo on for delivering lines written by writers and performing as directed by directors

i hope the director's cuts of Dune will be made and released in theaters. there was one specific scene of Feyd talking to the baron about the emperor where the dialogue was clearly adred and the rest of the scene is cut away from shots of him. every single scene is a visual feast, but (the studio I presume) more than fat was trimmed from the film

Kenny Logins posted:yeah. less retconned if you believe the director’s “fluid oral mythos” intent towards canon. in any event it establishes certain recurring elements that would follow in later mads max this is way better than the cinematic connected multiverse setup most sci fi uses though. fury road gives you a two minute montage, a one minute monologue, and 1.75 seconds of flashbacks to establish max and the whole world. james bond movies used to do that. but w craig they did an "in over his head" and three "too old for this poo poo" movies. every prior movie was just "here's the world's greatest spy at the top of his game", even when Moore was almost 60
