If you ever go to jail, get ready because there might be 50 televisions and if this show is on they're all going to be tuned to it, unless there is something on another channel with cleavage. I had never even heard of the show until I went to jail. It's an event. Ridiculousness is on, everybody stop fighting, no murdering, everyone gather in the auditorium because it's time for Ridiculousness. Annoying Falling Down Guy and Weird Laughs-at-Things Girl

I don't know about love, but I find The Big Bang Theory pretty humorous. I'll watch a repeat every now and then for a laugh.

I would rather watch Ridiculousness for 100 hours straight, clockwork orange me, than watch 1 hour of Fox News in jail and it lasted about 3 before it was over.

Maybe it’s just the blue collar genre I like. I was like 9 when I watched and loved the show ROC lol.

Last Action Hero - Nobody liked it at release, because it was kind of ahead of its time in terms of meta story telling. But it's a dumb fun action movie with peak Schwarzenegger.

Last Action Hero is fantastic and has so many great moments. *Arnold gets home, shoots his closet, and a dead assassin falls out* "How did you know there was a guy in there?" "There's always a guy in there."

I think this film has a lot of charm too. My brother had some of the toys when they launched a little before the film, so he really loved it.

I like: Every one of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's action movies, especially The Rundown, it's hilarious how often he hits Sean William Scott; also the dude from Surf Ninjas and TMNTII was a in it playing rebel who kicks the poo poo out The Rock. Domino Aeon Flux (the movie) Matchbox 20 Staind (don't listen to them though, Aaron Lewis is a piece of poo poo chud) all 3 Riddick movies The Matrix sequels Disenchantment Ancient Aliens (gently caress the whole premise of it, it's just so silly and it's fun to disprove everything in real time with just wikipedia) oh and I've been roasted for liking White Zombie, but gently caress yall haters, that poo poo is badass HenryJLittlefinger fucked around with this message at 22:15 on Jan 19, 2024 |

HenryJLittlefinger posted:I like: I love this movie. It has great comedy and does a good job of setting up The Rock as an unstoppable badass before the finale while still giving him moments where he gets his rear end kicked. Sean William Scott is perfect in his role, and Christoper Walken is also great as the main villain. Edit: The best scene in Last Action Hero is when Charles Dance's character comes to the real world , shoots someone, yells out how he wants to confess to the murder, and someone shouts at him to shut the gently caress up because no one cares. limp_cheese fucked around with this message at 23:35 on Jan 19, 2024 |

The pacing is a bit off, and it tries to get a bit too serious for the type of goofy movie it is sometimes, but a great put it on in the background dumb action comedy. Having Charles Dance as the villain also really helps. He 100% knows what kind of film he's in and seems to be absolutely loving it.

I like The Rock too. When I see a Rock movie, I mostly know what I'm gonna get. I put his movies in the category of "Movie I'll watch on HBO in a hotel but not pay super attention to it either".

I love that Danny calls him out as “the guy who killed Mozart” and his character doesn’t know what the gently caress Danny’s talking about.

The Rock is a wall of meat who can act well in both action and comedy movies. His movies are just plain fun. He's massively successful for a reason.

The Rock is serviceable but I honestly can't think of any movie featuring The Rock that I wouldn't rather have someone else play him. He is a marketable actor with marketable charisma and a marketable brand, I'm glad he exists, but he's like a Voodoo graphics card.

The Fast and Furious movie where he gets up from his hospital bed and flexes his cast off should have used who, exactly?

I gave it a fair try a few months ago and bailed after about half an hour, always fun to see peak Arnold but the kid is terrible and it takes too long to get going. The first two Naked Gun movies and Loaded Weapon handle the over the top cop humor much more effectively, especially as they don’t bother with any grounded family drama.

Congo gets panned as a bad B-movie, but B-movie is exactly the vibe they were going for! It's got an absolutely amazing cast with Ernie Hudson's Monroe Kelly as a particular standout. Great hangover flick.

I will die on the hill that the Zach Snyder Dawn of the Dead remake is a really fun and good movie (in spite of Snyder) and I rewatch it whenever I get sick. Also the whole "we need to get to the tropical islands in the middle of Lake Superior, also we can't drink the salt water from the freshwater lake" thing at the end is very funny.

It's the only Snyder movie I enjoy, and I think James Gunn was better working in splatter movies than superhero ones (I like The Suicide Squad, which probably qualifies for this though - it feels like a Venture Bros episode, and I think that, The Doom Patrol TV show and Dredd are the only comic adaptations that get what's cool about comics) The first 10 minutes or so of DotD 2004 are horrifying and spectacular. Admittedly, the film dips a lot after that, but the opening is great. Disco Pope fucked around with this message at 10:01 on Jan 20, 2024 |
