I’ve been pleasantly surprised by Netflix in the past couple of years with their action movies - Triple Frontier isn’t bad, Extraction was an excuse to see Chris Hemsworth be Chris Hemsworth (in all the good ways), and The Old Guard was fun!!

it’s not sony’s product tho - it’s a multi-platform game made by a third party developer who develops games for all platforms, and they (sony) paid to gate content from that multi-platform game, defeating the idea of multi-platform in the first place.
i had this weird theory about the most recent Assassin’s Creed around timed DLC, but maybe it’s not just weird, just angering.
true, but if something is multi-platform, you still should not be gating playable content to one platform only. it’s one thing if it’s skins/mounts/ability cards/whatever attribute thingy is hot for that game, but not actual gameplay. that’s fucking shitty. i’d say the same thing about microsoft if the situation was…
At this point, we’ll get Avatar 2 by the time the original Avatar is old enough to vote.
Very true - but leaks are leaks. If they turn out to be right, and they find out a few more leaks, and those were right, would you consider them legit after that? Regardless, leakers rarely reveal their actual sources. We’ll just have to see how this plays out. Doubt I’ll remember to come back here and say I was wrong…
to be fair, they also run a podcast/show that dives into research and rumors. they aren’t running a whole website like the making star wars folks, but they do have some track record.
massive pirating from who though? like 2% of americans know how to pirate films. the studios won’t lose that much money.
doubtful. the big movies you are expecting that should have been filming since march won’t see the light of day til 2022. right now, hollywood is sitting on films that were finished end of 2019/were in the last stages of post in q1 2020. once things do come back....they will be dry quicker than death valley after a…
They totally had to submit one, for sure. The problem is between their pitch and getting hired, KK never even bothered to figure out what type of filmmakers they were (improvisational, light-hearted, fast and loose) - which speaks to the greater problem of Hollywood studio execs - how genuinely ignorant they can be…
A lot of *loud people online* didn’t like the movie. Don’t equate it with the general public - it still made loads and loads of money after it’s first week.
I actually liked the “don’t choke on your aspirations” scene - I always felt that Hayden gave some sort of fun, clever, side-eye moments to us in II and III, and most definitely you get that sly, albeit dry humor in TCW too. I thought it did justice to Anakin/Vader as a character. I think what puts off people about it…
“No time to discuss this in a committee!”
Here’s the thing though - you can use the same story structure but not tell the same story - George did that with the prequels (cue - it’s poetry! it rhymes!). You introduce your main three (Anakin, Obi, Padme). Something blows up. That’s the only MAJOR similarity between ANH and TPM. Everything else is a rich story…
I can’t even find my way out of the greys and I’ve been here for 7 years :(
Big films like these are better off when you hear NOTHING about them. It gives you less time to stew about and create expectations in your mind.
I love the prequels for what they were - a groundbreaking filmmaking venture (along with Peter Jackson & LOTR)) that pushed cinema into the modern era of the 21st century. What GL managed to do is literally insane - and was why none of his director buddies wanted to help him out because they didn’t want to fuck it up…
I’m most curious around the age of everyone in the comments during the 90s - opinions/enjoyment factor could have a huge scale, I think, depending on ages.
So bad that it was good tho! If the 80s gifted us with the idea of the blockbuster, the excess of the 90s gifted us with how far Hollywood can take a one sentence premise and -insert star here-
