Ken Bone Comeback posted:well gimme the highlights, don't leave me hanging here I'll crosspost Duzzy Funlop posted:I'd post pictures, but it's pretty much the most boilerplate experience you could possibly come up with. An absolute sea of these comical Guinness top hats and the most cliché green attire overall, but having participated in Saint Paddies Day "celebrations" in the US, I was fully prepared for it. I was a little surprised that the same trend would be visible in loving Germany, but I had braced myself for it nonetheless.

I remember when I was 18 and I asked a dude I worked with if he ordered one when he had a stopover in Shannon on the way home from Iraq. Dude saved me from getting my asskicked years later by explaining why that wasn't something I should do. Though I've heard people order Irish car bombs with no issue in Scotland, but

Speaking of societies that'll start fights over really old poo poo, is there a drink that pisses off the South that much? Do we need to make one, like 1 shot wild turkey 101, 1 shot sweet tea vodka, set it on fire and call it a general Sherman?

Thank god I escaped the south. E: there's several drinks called the General Sherman, one of them is even just a shot glass of southern comfort with about 5 drops of tabasco in it. orange juche fucked around with this message at 22:11 on Mar 17, 2019 |

I think "slavemaster poison" was among them.

Aquaman is...certainly something. I loving love underwater sci-fi poo poo and I was expecting my mind to be blow Subnautica-style in a hero-movie setting, and while the conceptual art of all the Atlantian stuff and the ships and gimmicks are pretty cool, the execution feels really...half-hearted. It feel like a combination of Jupiter Rising with a Michael Bay spin on it, just throw enough shiny poo poo at the audience, and they won't know what to love most. And while at least the action stuff isn't as seizure-inducing as a Michael Bay movie - and I don't know how to really put it - you never really get to appreciate the awesomeness of what you're seeing, because half of it is faced-paced as hell, and the other half seems to be implemented with super-dated CGI. To make things worse, several parts of the movie seem like they're being produced / directed by entirely different studios / people, and some of those occasions are in scenes and settings that belong together. Like, the part where princess whatshername fights Black Manta's commandos is a really cool fight scene, and seconds before / later, you have Black Manta fighting Aquaman in what looks like a Power Rangers episode. With literal loving moves from Power Rangers villains by Black Manta...I can't tell if this is supposed to be a callback or easteregg or whatever, but it feels incredibly misplaced. Or Black Manta re-engineering his suit of armor to the quite possibly worst music I've ever heard selected for such an occasion. On top of that, some of the lines for the actors and some are absolutely terrible. I get that some silliness and humor fine in these movies, and it kinda works in the Marvel movies, but here it just seems so out of place half of the time. Jason Momoa is loving awesome for the role, I genuinely love me some Willem Dafoe, but the lines they're feeding them seem just super awkward. It still manages to be a pretty decent movie, but while I'm not some cynical rear end in a top hat that doesn't like fun and shits on everything before even seeing it through, I spent half the movie thinking "Christ, this could have been so much more". And that's really what I'm left with, it could have been so much more. I'm not even sure why I seem to have expected a lot from a Superhero movie, since I'm not really that big on them, but I guess Jason Momoa in a cool setting had me more stoked for it than I thought. Decent watch, but bit of a letdown, really. /edit: lol, wall of to explain how little you care, good job, Dingus Funlop

Basically DC.txt then Also, whoever said that Batman v Superman ultimate super turbo champion edition is significantly better than the original cut was spot on. Whoever made the original edit should've been flogged with a rubber hose.

ok but does better still equate to good? I got the blu-ray in a clearance bin, need to get around to it And yeah, pretty much agree with Aquaman.txt. Definitely worth a watch, but pretty forgettable. I guess Khal Drogo is good for the role but man he’s just such a meh actor with line delivery. I know, I know, comic book movie and all that. I guess at least DC put out a half decent movie. Wonder Women was good but also forgettable. Everyone seems to say it was ‘bout near perfect until the ending and boss battle, which I don’t even remember. Is Justice League even worth a watch?

Batman v Superman director's cut I would call a good watch. Not great. But even if you don't like it it fills out everything and explains so much poo poo it's worth it for that alone. You are left wondering why they cut so much important poo poo out originally. Justice League was bad and didn't make sense a lot. And the bad guy is called Steppenwolf for gently caress's sake.

Prometheus is like that too. A confusing mess in the theatrical cut while the additional deleted scenes basically explain the weird plot points into sense.

I guess Denis Villeneuve's Dune started production(probably early test shots and scouting at this point, there's still a lot of casting to do) and Khal Drogo is gonna play Duncan Idaho, sooo we'll see how that goes. Other casting looks pretty rad, but they haven't cast Feyd yet.
