Or, um, a "A Song of Ice and Fire," which would have made more sense since he said it should be something "poetic" and is the source book for the series?

The reason the alien vision sucks is because it was one of the coolest ideas Fincher brought to Alien3 (anamorphic lens + guy running with stedicam) and Scott apparently rejected it and came up with something far, far, far lamer.

I know I'm way late but just to vent….wow, disappointing. Probably all the major plot holes have been well covered here already but…
-How did they miss the huge city on their way down? It was obviously walking distance from the landing site and yet they never noticed it? And then not a SINGLE person asked David a…

That wasn't a 3D issue - it's how Lin framed it.
Overall, I got the sense Lin had a lot of fun framing the Enterprise in ways we've never seen her before.

Except they only had the client in the first place because of Kim's hard work and he only sucked it up and came into the office to win over Mesa Verde not because they were a big client, but to get at Jimmy and Kim's new enterprise.

There's a big droid you never see very well who is running alongside the good guys in a few shots. I was guessing that might be him.

I stand to be corrected but I'm pretty sure that he's the bearded guy
running with the gun and shooting everywhere in that one shot…

I posted more detail above but it was definitely a bit ambiguous. In the book it has more to do with destabilizing all of reality rather than simply an alternate history where JFK does bad stuff.

It really has more to do with the Yellow Card Man, which is also different in the book.

I assume the change from 1958 to 1960 was simply to streamline things and have Franco have less time to kill in the past. Based on the reviews I've seen, clearly there's going to be at least somewhat less of the story in Jodie (which makes sense) and obviously a big elimination/modification of the Derry stuff. Without…

clearly the movies are bloated and indulgent and probably should have been 2 movies at most etc. etc.

I know Top Gun has pretty sunset shots but I think it's pretty obvious what that shot is actually referencing.

That was my problem too. It seems odd Weiner loves the ad so much he can't see how ultimately shallow it is for Don to have his entire persona come crashing down around him and then, almost instantly, channel it into selling Coke.

Reading this gets me all fired up and indignant at the NFL.
DAMN - it's almost enough to make you forget about THE OTHER TIME the Patriots got caught cheating and lost a draft pick. All part of a vast conspiracy to make this upstanding organization look like meanies and, of course, enforce parity. Probably the Bills…

Thanks, Jake for that quote, which I've read before. It's comic how 10 years later people who have never met either man think they KNOW what each man contributed and are 100% wrong (e.g. the Flesh Fair and the ending.)

You lighten up!! I admitted I made the same mistake on first viewing. But while it's true they'd be interested in David, it would be a total red herring. William Hurt's speech at the beginning of the movie, about what they owe to their creations, is rather central to the movie, don't you think? Doesn't it mean that…

This implies you:

It's funny how much of the criticism of the ending focuses on misinterpretations. I'll admit I didn't realize the aliens were mecha until leaving the theatre, for example.

Making up a new job isn't that hard. He can be that guy who puts your old movies on DVD or whatever people use now….the cloud, I guess. Yeah, the cloud.

Every other review I read specifically avoided mentioning the celeb who came out to Franco, so thanks for nonchalantly ruining that gag.
