I still can't believe that not Dune, but Dune 4: The One with the Worm-Emperor, was parodied in an episode of Billy Mandy. That's like someone parodying Sherlock Holmes and not shoving Moriarty into the plot because they only have a surface-level understanding of the source-material.

Doug Jones is also going to have a recurring role, can't wait to see what kind of horrifically cumbersome FX makeup they pile on top of him this time. :v:

If it's an adaptation of the movie, Jones is probably Petyr.

Read a review of A Dog's Way Home and apparently the trailers leave out some weird dark moments, like the dog almost dying after being taken in by a homeless man who dies, leaving the dog chained up and alone. Until some kids stumble across the dead body of the homeless man. Real feel good moment of the year.

I think I saw that my Sony credit card's rewards program is offering reward points for uploading a ticket stub for that movie. Maybe I'll use my AMC A-List to get a ticket to that and just go see Bumblebee or Spider-Verse again instead.

unsurprisingly, it's by the same author as 'a dog's purpose' I think that guy might just hate dogs and figured out a way to get paid for it.

The first film opens with the puppies being uncerimoniously murdered, as in literal stuffed in a burlap sack and drowned murder, before reincarnating. Then the dog almost dies again and is in heat baked agony. This is the first 5 minutes.

Seriously, do not watch these films unless you enjoyed the passion of the christ but wish Jim Caveziel was a dog

According to Rotten Tomatoes, currently the 2018 movie with the most awards win is Roma followed by The Favourite.

I really hope it's either the Netflix movie or the Yorgos movie that sweeps the Oscars.

Gyllenhaal's character reminds me a little too much of what he did in Okja (I found him completely insufferable in that) but I'll give this the benefit of the doubt because of Nightcrawler.

It's kind of a weirdly fitting case given those books are the ones with the most recognisable and sci-fi ideas to readily parody (the giant worm-emperor, endlessly recloning Duncan Idaho/Billy, etc) without having to do all the setup. Also, Spice being Cinnamon was hilarious. (Isn't Spice frequently described as smelling/tasting like cinnamon? Now I want a Spice donut)

So I just got out of seeing Replicas, the new Keanu Reeves movie that got unceremoniously dumped into theaters with barely any marketing at all.

:staredog: :lol:

I don't want to jump the gun and say that this is 2019's The Book of Henry, especially since we're not even halfway through loving January, but it's similarly misguided and just completely batshit insane. It was so bad but I just couldn't help but laugh through most of it because of how crazy the choices the movie makes are.

A brief outline of what it's about :
Keanu works as a scientist at (what he thinks is) a biomed company. His wife and 3 kids are killed in a car crash. He's the lone survivor. He barely even sheds a tear for them before he decides to clone his family. Thomas Middleditch who plays his work buddy helps him out with this. Together they steal millions of dollars worth of research equipment from their company, and since Keanu doesn't have a generator at his house, he goes around the neighborhood stealing car batteries to hook up the equipment to. Their company only has 3 pods and Keanu has 4 people he wants to save, SO HE LITERALLY WRITES DOWN THE NAMES OF HIS DEAD FAMILY MEMBERS ON SHEETS OF PAPER, PUTS THEM INTO A BOWL AND RANDOMLY PICKS WHICH OF HIS KIDS GETS TO LIVE. HIS YOUNGEST DAUGHTER DOESN'T GET CHOSEN SO HE DELETES HER MEMORY OUT OF THE BRAINS OF HIS WIFE AND OTHER 2 KIDS.

And it gets even crazier from there. I just...I'm completely at a loss as to how this thing got made hahahahahaha :allears:

If you enjoy bad movies, absolutely go see this and do it soon because it'll probably leave theaters in a week or 2. There was literally one other person in the theater with me on opening night.

try to compromise, maybe have the poly orgy while watching Book of Henry. be flexible. which is also good advice for being in a poly orgy in general

Yeah, Replicas was remarkable. The How Did This Get Made crew will have a field day with this. Fairly certain this was made a month after Minority Report and just sat on the shelf until now.

It was a good watch though. You'll be asking yourself "what genre is this movie" every few minutes.
