Dude!! I have never felt more ready to defend the frontier. 

It’s simple: replace Carrie Fisher with a chiropractor who covers her face with a cape the whole time.

the issue with ck isn’t whether or not he apologized, the issue is: doing it in the first place.

The scienos also have better lawyers than the MAGAts. l0l

The casting was pretty killer, and a lot of the costumes and sets were great.

From what I understand, a lot of medium-budget movies are just shot with “flat” lighting that can be tweaked in post. This is especially true if you compare the recent Halloween sequels with the sort of movies John Carpenter was making with Dean Cundey forty years ago.

I think that’s just how a lot of movies are made these days, like the directors and the cinematographers are afraid of colors. Maybe it’s an aesthetic choice, maybe it has something to do with shooting digitally. 

One thing I’ve always appreciated about Lynch’s Dune is that it’s unapologetically, aggressively weird. This is not Star Trek or Star Wars, where the main characters are basically 20th/21st Century Americans in outer space. These characters are the product of a feudal, anti-democratic, and fairly decadent society…

JoJo Rabbit is great, I love it. One that shows the dude has drama chops is Hunt for the Wilderpeople.

Would’ve been nice to actually see him running through the galaxy butchering gods. One on-screen kill doesn’t much count.

I found Jojo Rabbit to be a great example where he allowed the movie to be fun and silly, but also let the dramatic, heavy moments have the weight and meaning they deserve.

Absolutely. Gorr, and that whole storyline in the comics, is my favorite storyline in the comics ever, and Gorr is a top-tier villain. They effed it up...and with Bale nonetheless. 

Exactly. And the sad thing is Waititi is a fantastic director. He could easily have made another great Thor film if he wanted with Love and Thunder. He just... didn’t.

As someone pointed out on Twitter last month, the AMPTP underestimated the strikers because they assume that writers and actors will return to the table once they realize their “cushy lifestyles” are in jeopardy.

I mean, the old Twix slogan from the 90's seems to apply perfectly to Elon Musk’s entire existence:

Everyone still calls it Twitter, but if you must use Muskrat’s new name, be sure to pronounce it “eggs”.

Pretty much. Elon threw out the challenge and got shook when Zuck agreed. Now he’s trying to backpedal with MRIs and other nonsense because he knows he’s stepped way over his skis (much like his Twitter purchase).

Thanks for the link! I have the regular Blu-Ray which is good enough for now as I don’t have a 4K tv. Too $$$.

I hope that Tron:Ares is good, but I found Legacy too joyless and too much of a retread of the first.  Great production design and music, but meh story.  Fingers crossed!

Ha! I actually went to that Drafthouse and found out I just missed that showing, or I would have been in the audience as well. I’m still hoping for a sequel, against all odds, especially after TRON has picked up the last movie in a trilogy. I’ve been trying to keep up with any rumors as they trickle out. Also, I…

YouTube “influencers” make horrible content. Why would their apologies be any different?
