Die Laughing posted:Are you my dad? I've never seen anyone else call him Rod Sterling. Like Lizard Combatant said, opening is fun and the Lithgow segment is pretty great. But everything else is just boring. And a couple of years ago I went on a reading spree regarding the incident, even seeing the footage, and it still makes so loving sad when I think about those kids and the circumstances that all made it happen.

Lizard Combatant posted:It's been many years, but I remember it being pretty awful. The opening sequence with Dan Akroyd is OK, and the last segment with John Lithgow (the monster on the wing) is good. But the rest is a write off, especially Steven Spielberg's segment - total snoozefest. Spielberg was apparently supposed to do something a little more daring but then the whole accident thing happened and to avoid further controversy he just went for a middle of the road safe segment.

Wasn't he supposed to do 'The Monsters Are Due On Maple Street'? In my opinion the best episode of the original series, and he swapped instead for a really rather crappy one. Probably a mistake putting it second as well since it really grinds the film to a halt before we even get to the best two stories.

I like the tagline quite a bit. Am I in the minority in thinking that The Rock is getting too swole. Every time I see a new picture of him he doubles in size. He's starting to look like a cartoon character. Has he surpassed Arnold in his heyday yet?

It's a helicopter that is tilted slightly, there wouldn't be that much force and wouldn't be that hard to stay up right.

It is a really bizarre thing he's sitting on, whatever it is. I'm not seeing it as a helicopter at all. I also can't tell which direction it's meant to be going, but it's definitely not moving with the rest of those helicopters. Weird. edit: vvv Gotcha. Cpt.

It is a loading ramp: And it is flying out of the city, the other ones have dudes with guns heading into the city to kill dead things.

It's not new, but after reading this thread and wandering my local video store, I couldn't help but laugh when I saw this on one of the shelves: Just...classic. Pasty washed-up white guys with orange flare trying to distract from the awful. Gotta love Colm Meaney's expression.

I thought that was the same terribly pasted Colm Meaney head as this one but it isnt. This Colm is clearly more concerned. Cage fucked around with this message at 22:35 on Apr 6, 2013 |

They look like characters straight out of L.A. Noire, with bodies that don't fit their heads and heads that don't match their posture.
