I thought the 3rd one was rather forgettable and lame because they just had Steve Carell play the part of his long lost brother as well. I mean, I know he was a twin or whatever, but it seemed like too much Carell.

Speaking of Illumination, I just watched Migration last night. I actually thought it was a pretty solid kids' movie for something I didn't even know was in theaters until it was available digitally. Not exactly a complex premise, but it works way better than whatever Disney was going for with Wish, for instance. Sometimes it's best to just do a simple plot well instead of a complex plot poorly.

Oh, I should mention that the human villain in Migration gave me total One Piece or maybe Popeye vibes. Mad respect to Illumination for having zero humans speak in the film too.

This is a total guilty pleasure, I know. But I do want RWBY to just have an ending. If all they need to do is put out like a couple of comics or something, just finish it up.

Songs were godawful, generic visual style, plot too convoluted and nonsensical, and the shoehorned in 7 dwarves friends added up to too many extraneous characters. Just a bad movie all around.

Just finished watching that tonight. I thought it was pretty great with a bunch of nods/influences (Ghost in the Shell, Blade Runner, 2001, etc...) but was let down a bit by the ending. I'm not sure the plot came together, but the journey was worthwhile enough.

Open Source Idiom posted:I saw it last week and posted in the thread about it. I thought it was pretty good, essentially an inverted Ghost In The Shell (or a rip off if you want to look at it that way, but I think that's ungenerous). I dunno, looking online some other people felt the same way. Basically, I felt it was leading to a bigger conspiracy that just never materialized. Also, I love movies with downer endings, but just killing off your lead with barely any buildup or twist was a bit of a wet fart. What made the movie feel less impactful at the end was that the main characters ultimately had no real role in the story. Sure, Carlos kills his friend/the Royjacker CEO, but other than that, they didn't solve or prevent anything in the plot at all. Everything happened with them or without them. More of a visual/audio feast and less an original story that I'll be thinking about in the future. The basic plot/philosophy stuff was done better in a lot of the media this pulled from. EDIT: I will mention that I've watched quite a bit of sci-fi/cyberpunk media, so the average viewer wouldn't constantly be thinking "oh, I've seen this before." Like, just watching all of Ghost in the Shell: SAC covers a ton of interesting transhumanism topics. JazzFlight fucked around with this message at 15:59 on May 5, 2024 |

One thing in Mars Express that made me point at the screen like meme Leo DiCaprio was a freaking split diopter shot. In an animated movie!
