Not sure how action-packed Trans Farmers would be, but I'd watch the shit out of it.
I didn't hate the fridge. I didn't hate the vine scene. I didn't hate Shia Lebouf. But Winstone's (not his fault) double-double-double-cross was too goddamned much. What horrible writing.
Oh there's still ripoffs. *coughdivergentcough*
My God there's so many people in that movie. Christine Baranski and Peter MacNiccol. David Krumholz. Future Harmony (spacing on her name). Nathan Lane. Tony Shaloub. The list goes on, not to mention the rock-solid core cast.
THE SOCIAL FANTASY from Aaron Sorkin
Garfunkel & Oates
Exactly, Star Wars is fantasy in space. Star Trek is science fiction. Which is why I'm looking forward to Ep7 even though I hated Abrams' Trek - because it's main problem is that he was treating the material as fantasy. Wrong for Trek, but great for Wars.
All Fox owns is distribution rights. The IP - characters, story, universe, etc. - is owned by Disney, which is what they need to make new material. Fox can't make new stuff, just sell the old stuff.
I'm not super keen to defend Lucas on this point, but I think it can't really be thought of as "redemption" in the usual sense. I think what Lucas is going for is more that the Dark Side is a kind of magical infection that takes control of Anakin, and is then ultimately expunged like the spirit of Saruman from King…
Fry needs to be a standard emoticon already.
It has some lines that will forever be fun to quote (all from Rick Moranis). But it's always been a movie that's better in memory than while actually watching it.
Yer a Jedi 'Arry.
I recall quite liking I Know What You Did Last Summer. It was the first 'post-Scream' movie; an attempt to apply the lessons of Scream back to a proper, non-satirical slasher, and was pretty effective on me, especially Gellar's death, as BatmanLannister describes. However, I was only 17, and didn't have much…
I liked what they did with Sydney's character. Sure she can move past one incident, but two is going to rattle your whole life. But the rest… I don't even remember much except dead Kennedy's amazingly fortuitous tape with a bunch of bullshit rules for trilogies. What? Slasher movies are never trilogies, not in any…
There does seem to be a suspiciously high frequency of "X actor shows up in costume for kids" stories these days. USO shows are so last century I guess.
The script may simply say "death" but I think "impotence in the face of death" can be fairly implied by context, such as contrast to instances, as I noted, where he offers his life, or encounters bodies, or the persistent theme of aging - panic over his obsolescence, which is very much about impotence. And let's not…
I think tragedy is not quite what WOK is getting at though. It's not death in general Kirk is unprepared to face - even in that movie Kirk is quick to offer up his life to "spare my crew." But that's different because it's an active response. It's something he can do about the situation, to save the others. What he's…
The tears always come for me when Shatner's voice cracks, but you're right the previous line has the most going on. It's a call-back to an earlier great line, when Spock explains that it was a mistake for Kirk to accept promotion…
I've been scrolling for an hour looking for that exact subject. In the absence of a definitive answer, I'd guess because Jackson wants to give it a limited theatrical run.
