Leave it to the basic-ass Swifties to come up with a low-rent, less-compelling version of Larry-ism.

Um.....have you seen 4, 5, 6, or Resurrection? I am grading on a curve, but H20 is easily one of the high points.

Also, on no planet is The Golden Compass film “underrated. It’s objectively a dog-shit adaptation of a wonderful book. Fingers crossed for the Netflix version.

Germain, sweetie, are you drinking embalming…

Yeah, I was watching and was like, this is some Tennessee Williams level family bullshit.

Patricia Clarkson is like a composite of every Southern Gothic matriarch ever. 

If you want more Jodie Comer: She is also the lead (Elizabeth of York) in the Starz show The White Princess and also the BBC supernatural mystery Remember me (Netflix).

1 and 2 are “meh” affairs. 3 is solid (also Philip Seymour Hoffman!). 4 and 5 are phenomenal action movies firing on all cylinders.

It’s a weird instance where the sequels have somehow gotten progressively better as they go.

“They’ll even imagine a future in which a “struggling” Disney begs Lucas to come back and write and direct the “real” sequel trilogy, even though just a dozen or so years ago many of them were accusing him of ruining their childhoods.”

This so hard. It’s not enough for them just to not-like The Last Jedi they also need…

Thank you. This is my feeling about these movies exactly.

“I think the thing about The Last Jedi that upset fans the most”

You mean *some* fans. Some fans that are very loud on the internet. This fan loved TLJ and Luke’s character arc in it. 

Also, with Aliens, they basically shifted the genre entirely. The franchise was a slasher movie in space, then turned into a Vietnam war movie in space.

We could get really conservative and say there are only three: man vs. man, man vs. nature, man vs. himself.

The rest is just cosmetic. 

Not sure why an “anthology series” is that difficult to comprehend.

You know, where stories are tied together thematically rather than by plot or characters. I’ve heard they’ve been doing those since.....like.....telling stories became a thing. 

“They follow standard physics except that they may not actually be in a void.”

Well, the bodies are “stopped” insofar as they collide with the ship. It solves the problem in an inelegant, conservative way. But this is that heart of the OP’s question, why did the mechanism/intelligence make this particular determination rather than just stopping everything. I think the answer is that we don’t…

LoL No one is actually answering the question you asked.

I think the best answer is that we don’t know why the rule is not universally applied. Whatever mechanism that is controlling this is conservative and only applying the rule to the object providing the propulsion?

What does this have to do with the OP’s question?

They asked why the new speed limit was not universally applied to all the objects in motion. The bodies on the ships were going the same speed as the ships so why were they not also slowed down? That’s what they were asking.

Your example is how Newtonian physics works…

This kind of skips over the OP’s question entirely. The bodies inside the ships are presumably moving at the same speed as the ship so why are they not also subject to the new speed limit rules and slowed down as well?

You’re dunking on the OP for no reason. Instead of being smarmy, go back and actually read what they said. At no time did they say that what was shown was inconsistent with the laws of physics, they were wondering why the speed limit was not universally applied to all bodies. The bodies inside the ship were moving at…

“Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!!!” - Koko, probably

I don’t want people to think I am shiting on the film. I liked it. It was good. But I didn’t see the jaw-dropping, horror event of the decade that everyone was raving about. It didn’t really innovate or do anything new, but what it did it did very well.

Ok...............but.............Halloween is a great film.
