It's Cloister the Stupid 😊 

Are we simply going to pretend like Zathura never happened? I know it’s not technically Jumanji, but it’s definitely a sequel (I think it’s even the second book written by the author after Jumanji). It’s not as good as the 1995 movie, but it’s honestly a lot of fun and has some pretty cool twists. It’s only fault is a… Read more

Seriously. Uprising was so good and had so much potential.

What stuck with me was the music.  The music added to the fun, hopefully this is more Curse of the Black Pearl and not Haunted Mansion.

The words are not interchangeable. Mythology is a merely a component of religion. It’s like saying a cough or sneeze is the same as the flu. OP’s distinction is pretty correct IMO; the preference being a story with the religion stripped away to a minimal or non existent significance with only the mythological… Read more

Actually this whole thread super weird, and the OP is the least of it. 

I have an opinion on this situation. Read more

Forget movies - I’m wondering if when I run out of toilet paper, I’ll actually be able to buy some.  Not to hoard, but to wipe my ass.

Yeah, I was sad to hear Pearson was cancelled as well. Had a friend tell me about it a few weeks after it happened. Can’t say I was surprised since even though I liked the premise, I will admit it was a little “thin”.  There was only so much fixin a fixer can do....

I saw him in so many things before LOTR that I never had a problem seeing him in other movies and TV shows.

I don’t actually see Elijah Wood as Frodo anymore. I think after seeing him in Everything is Illuminated, I stopped thinking him as only Frodo

omg I’ve been thinking the same thing for years. picturing them doing something super quirky together along the lines of say, Dirk Gently would almost be too much for my heart to handle

Somewhere I read a comment with a suggestion that I would love to see: Read more

We’re getting into Star Wars Territory over here, but IMO the best of the bunch is three by a mile. I’ll watch that movie by itself time to time just because it’s just a super sweet enjoyable movie.

Remember when this site had complete radio silence on James Gunn because of a targeted campaign by right-wing trolls to discredit him and Meatwadf was our hero?

i can’t speak for him, but for me at least it’s a “these books are fucking awful” issue

I wonder if this is also very Shadows of the Empire in motivation, too? Was there supposed to be a movie coming out next year that got cancelled?
SOTE was created because Lucas took longer to write the prequels than their licensing division had anticipated. They had publishing deals and merchandising deals in place for… Read more

I feel sorry for whoever they cast as Audrey - because Ellen Greene has put her tramp stamp on that role hard. Opened Off-Broadway in 1982, transferred to the West End the next year, the films and still mother-forking slammed it in 2015, opposite Jake Gyllenhaal.

Heck, over time, as this technology becomes becomes more affordable and widespread, we might be seeing live theater get a minor resurgence by being able to do epic panoramas and moments it hitherto couldn’t do. Just imagine watching a production of Les Miserables, Hamilton, or any number of stage productions with this… Read more

As this technology matures I would think it would not only significantly decrease costs but make it easier to shoot “epic” type material in a short time frame. Considering you can create the backdrops year round in preparation for 3 months worth of production I really feel like they just scratched the surface with… Read more
