Discount Viscount posted:I'm playing Persona 3 again. It's all because I watched Azumanga Daioh last week and something about Japanese high school fiction about friendship makes me nostalgic for a high school experience I never actually had. Or maybe the one I did have, the good parts anyway. Or something like that. I think that's the reason I love high school movies so much. My high school experience was lame and kinda stressful, so seeing people make movies about how fun it could be gives me nostalgia for something I never actually had.

Unconfirmed reports say no suspect has been found, but that the ghostly laughter of Tupac could be heard ringing through the halls and hills of the city.

Escape Plan is such a fun little movie. It's a shame more people haven't seen it because it delivers on the promise of something like The Expendables so much better. Two action icons, in an actually fun movie, in a modern take on what otherwise feels like a throwback film. And for reals Jim Caviezel is perfect in that movie.

My roommate wants me to put up a shelf in the living room and put my plastic robots and karate bugmen on it, to make the living room look like a place we actually live. I can't figure out how to explain to her this is a terrible idea, and that I was trying to keep all the dumb nerd bullshit contained in my room.

Dissapointed Owl posted:Did Escape Plan just have an overtly muslim protagonist (trying to escape from a Guantanamo Bay analogy) for Americans to not only root for, but also sadly cheer on when he, dying, defiantly says "Allahu Akbar" and for us to despise the man who responds with "Whatever" before gunning him down? Yeah, that's one of the balliest things I've seen in a long time. TrixRabbi posted:I own 1-6 and I keep meaning to buy 7-10 but I never want to spend the money. I know that season ten is generally considered the last good season, but the season finale of eleven is Behind the Laughter and that's one of the best episodes of the entire series.

Suggest something better/different to put in there instead? It's not that difficult.

Dissapointed Owl posted:It's fun and good. Arnie isn't too bad, but he is aging poorly. He's a year younger than Stallone, but looks a decade older. Stallone's look obviously isn'f very natural though. Arnie's terrible in the Expendables movies, but in all fairness he doesn't have a lot to work with in those. Escape Plan was good though, and I like The Last Stand as well. I haven't seen Sabotage, or heard any praise regarding it.

Thanks god I'm not the only one that thinks this. I love Behind the Laughter even if it's conceit is pretty dated now. It's one of the last really great episodes, which is fitting in some ways. After that there are some episodes with some good parts but that also have some major flaw until it starts becoming all crap. I think the last episode I thought was all the way good was Trilogy of Error and that was all the way back in *looks it up* 12th season? Jeez. That's depressing.

There are also a series of silver age stories collected under the name "Crisis on Multiple Earths". These feature the first crossovers between Earth 1 and Earth 2, and us lay the earliest groundwork for COIE. They are not necessarily essential, but they are iconic, particularly The Flash #123 Uncle Boogeyman fucked around with this message at 18:48 on Aug 24, 2014 |

Skywalker OG posted:Cannibal Holocaust: I forgot / blocked out whole parts of that movie apparently. So hosed up. Glad I saw it in theaters. The New Bev is awesome, I'm heading there tonight for their Cassavetes series. I assume this was at the New Bev, I don't think I could handle two movie theaters in the country playing Cannibal Holocaust on the same night.

If anyone is looking to go on an Attenborough memorial binge I highly recommend the loving ace Brighton Rock from 1947.
