2001 is the most perfect blu that has ever released. If it gets released as 4K it may make me jump to that standard.

Last time I watched 2001 I joked with my wife about doing a "Nolan" edit that cut everything before the scene on the moon, replaced the soundtrack with modern movie music, and dubbed dialog that overexplained everything.

This came fairly soon after an Interstellar rewatch, natch.

I'd watch it for the hilarity factor.

There was a UHD of it up for pre-order on Amazon and I added it to my wish list because it's one of those movies I would get a UHD player for, although the listing appears to have been taken down :(

There's no price or release date or anything for it anymore.

You consider Blue Moon a "Texas beer"? It started in Colorado and is owned by MillerCoors, so that's a weird position to take.

Is this like how Oregonians consider Rainier an Oregon beer? I mean, that's just the way sometimes.

It'll be hilarious if this was the only action set piece in the movie again.

Domino looks great and I can see why test audiences were probably clamoring for more of her. Gonna enjoy the spin-off in a year or two. Wonder if they cut the action sequence that killed her stunt double.

Rest of the trailer looks solid. Cable is sufficiently...Cable. Interesting that they went with full on Liefield 90's, obnoxious helmet/codpiece/pauldrons Shatterstar despite his recent toned down costume but it makes sense.

Only thing that looks dubious is Ryan Reynold's schtick wearing thin but if this one is as tightly paced as the first then it should still be an entertaining flick.

Edit: That's Will Smith flying the helicopter at the start of the trailer, right? It sounds JUST like him.

Crazy Rich Asians trailer.

I find the lauding of extreme wealth here pretty disgusting, and I hear the book handles it very poorly.

I'd support a law where every movie with characters this wealthy should be forced to tack on a Schindler's List moment where the characters break down realizing how many people are dying every day due to extreme poverty that they could save just by selling their collection of Lamborghinis.

It's about time.
Isn't the interest around this film mostly that it's a US romcom where the leads (or the whole cast, really) aren't white?

But yeah, the book and film are about obscenely rich people being obscenely rich.

I mean if it was like a really dark comedy where the guy is just horribly unaware of just how privileged and rich he is to the point where he straight up accidentally runs over someone or something and the money just makes it go away. Then just film it so these things aren’t even paid attention to. Just sprinkle it in the background and out of focus and give the audience just enough to know that oh yeah there’s some hosed up poo poo going on and he’s not even acknowledging it.

I’d see it then.

Asians, and fans of inter-class romance, is what I figure. I’ve seen Asian-Americans thinking of this like it’s Black Panther. Most of the characters and the actors playing them are Asians, and quite a number of them do not even have a career in Hollywood yet. The male lead, for example, is from Malaysia.

In the comics the symbiote first bonds with Peter Parker and is affected by the irradiated spider venom in his blood. He gets a cool black costume that mysteriously repairs itself and boosts his strength; the symbiote gains all the spider abilities including a few Peter couldn't develop, and once it goes solo it also has the urge to make other people into its version of Spider-Man.
