Terrible Opinions posted:The 2006 Casino Royale is actually a really good entry point, which makes the failure of its followups all the more disappointing. Unless Skyfall was actually good, it's the only one I didn't see. Skyfall is great, unlike QoS and Spectre, both of which thoroughly suck a poo poo.

Max Wilco posted:I was watching some video the other day, and mentioned Zack Snyder's daughter, so I looked it up, and turns out (and maybe this is common knowledge) that his daughter committed suicide back in 2017 (sometime before Justice League came out). Justice League began production in 2016 and was in the post-production process when Autumn Snyder died.

Kim Justice posted:King James is a bloody Stuart king, stop getting Albion wrong. Catholic girls' school English teacher chiming in. I taught Midsummer Night's Dream at the start of the year to a class of 14 year-olds prior to the nation-wide lockdown my country did (which also totally disrupted the assessment task based around it). We kind of try to emphasise that the ideas of Shakespeare's plays are still relevant, or in some cases, ahead of their time (like the 4th-wall breaking in Midsummer Night's Dream and the play-within-a-play subplot), and one of the ways in which we try to emphasise the relevance of Shakespeare is "lots of words and phrases he used were first recorded in his writing."

Dapper_Swindler posted:honestly my biggest issue with the Les Misérables movie is why the gently caress did they put Russell Crowe in it. like sure he looks like a cop physically and poo poo but holy gently caress he can't sing. like at all. i like the musical enough that the movie isnt THAT bad for me. just kinda dumb. They should've cast Russ le Roq as Valjean. Apparently he has interest in acting.

Instead he made a lot of noise about how he's totally better now and ready for his big comeback and got the hammer brought down on himself. Dumbass. That's fairly likely, considering that Twitch hadn't even bothered to ban him until now. loving took long enough.

Dapper_Swindler posted:that makes me curious how the British/Australian ratings board rates language like that. like i know over there "oval office" isnt as bad as in the US and poo poo. In New Zealand, where I live, the ratings system goes like this: G - General, so family films, kids' movies, etc. PG - Parental Guidance. The odd "poo poo" might sneak in here, like Tim Burton's Batman. M - Most PG-13 and soft R films tend to end up here. The Dark Knight trilogy are all rated M, as is The Matrix or Ghost World (this is also the lowest rating that I've seen for a film where a character drops that word). After that, you get the Rs. R13, R15, R16 and R18. The number, as you'd probably have guessed, is how old one needs to be to view the films legally. You can more or less cite a film where someone says "oval office" at least once for any of these ratings. You can also occasionally find films with an RP restriction, where they're nominally restricted to persons aged XX, but can be viewed by someone below that age if there is parental supervision. It's rarely, if ever, used, and I've only ever seen it on The Shawshank Redemption. The R rating essentially acts like the American R or the "A" rating that Siskel and Ebert often advocated for, as an alternative to the NC-17 rating.

Max Wilco posted:The NC-17 is like the AO rating for games; the reason why you don't see it much is because most theaters/retailers won't carry it, and when you can't sell your stuff at Wal-Mart and Best-Buy, that's a big stream of income just out the window, so they'll edit it down. That's one of the main differences between NZ and Australia's R18 and the NC-17 - major cinema chains carry R18 films and it's not exactly commercial death here either, nor are major retail chains like JB Hi-Fi or online retailers like Mighty Ape afraid to carry them. Off the top of my head, Dredd (rated R18) and Mad Max: Fury Road (R16) did as well as they could in NZ cinemas. Dredd was helped by having Karl Urban, a good Kiwi lad, in the lead role.

Sydin posted:I was with you until this, but I think this gets way too granular. What exactly is okay for a 16 year old to legally see, but not a 15 year old? The OFLC usually publishes a summary of their decisions. Here's why Saving Private Ryan got a specially created R15 instead of its original R16: quote:"Saving Private Ryan deals with matters such as horror, cruelty and violence in terms of s.3(1). Nothing in this film falls within s.3(2). The Board gave “particular weight” to the extent and degree to which, and the manner in which, the film describes, depicts, or otherwise deals with “[a]cts of torture, the infliction of serious physical harm, or acts of significant cruelty” in s.3(3)(a)(i). There are many such scenes in the film. The Board also considered the matters in s.3(4). These include the extraordinarily powerful emotional effect of the film, its cinematic impact (which would be significantly greater than in video format because of more visual detail), its importance as an educational and cultural memoire of the sacrifices made in World War II, and its importance as an example of a well-made film in the war movie genre. They're also incredibly open and accessible (they regularly attend the Media Teachers' conference that happens every other year and hold Professional Development sessions, for example). They key thing is that they consider the creator's intent, the context, and the likelihood for "harm."

Benne posted:I mean, if you have to put timestamps in the video where the skits begin and end so people can easily skip them, maybe your skits just suck and you should stop doing them? It's pretty much one of the reasons why I don't watch much of his stuff. As soon as I even get the whiff of a skit brewing, it just immediately puts me off of that poo poo. For me, the worst though are the older Mr Plinkett reviews that RLM did. I watched the Phantom Menace one that everyone had a collective jizz over, and I found the skits not only intrusive, but gross as gently caress. Hahahahaha woman chained to radiator while a serial killer calls her a bitch and threatens to kill her hahahahaha funny funny funny hahaodfjnaxl;kfhgnoai snmgkoajsdng. gently caress off.
