https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAjsBZEOnVw I don't think I've seen this trailer posted. I haven't watched anything by Morgan Spurlock since The Greatest Movie Ever Sold, but this looks interesting.

The first Super Size Me was stupid, because no poo poo if everyday your meals consisted of calorie dense foods with generally poor macro ratios and very little micronutrients you're gonna feel like rear end. More so if you don't workout every day to burn off those excess calories. It's entirely possible to eat smart at fast food places, but the documentary made a point to order everything on the menu as is, which is fine... but come on, that poo poo is obvious lol.

Wasn't his body breaking down less because of the daily Big Macs and more because he was a secret binge-drinking alcoholic (and also sexual miscreant)?

I don't think it gained popularity because people were flabbergasted that McDonald's wasn't amazing for you. I think it was precisely because everyone knew that going into it. The satisfaction of watching something confirm what you already believe. Also it was interesting for the slow-mo car wreck aspect of it, watching what actually happens to him. The doc is essentially a dude sacrificing himself for our viewing pleasure.

If I wanted to see someone turn into a fat piece of poo poo and sacrifice his physique by eating poorly, I'd look in the dang mirror.

I'm not versed in Witcher lore since I haven't read the books or played the games, but as far as a grim fantasy action adventure things go, that trailer worked for me.

The thing that made me sus of the Witcher show is some interview with the showrunner where she said only at the end....do we see...and only for a moment...that despite his exterior...Geralt is actually kind of a sensitive and vulnerable guy... Where in the games he's making frickin clown puns in every second sidequest

It is the most generic-rear end generic fantasy cheap slop you could possibly imagine when working with a lore as rich and incredible as The Witcher series.

Aside from the brief shot of Geralt under the influence of potions at the end there, that just doesn't look weird enough. But I'll give it a shot and prolly hatewatch it

Honestly looks far better than I was expecting it to. I would absolutely watch it, I was ready to declare it complete trash but Henry Cavill sold me and also the Yen reveal...

This looks good really good, but I just want them to put Triss' hair in the little buns. Please do this. Also, I'm still holding out hope that Mark Hamill gets cast as Vesemir. Just do it, Netflix!

Specific nerds will never be happy with adaptations of their specific kingdoms. Doesn't really matter what happens. They'll always do something wrong.

There’s a monster right at the end. Or does that not count? Should he be going thru his deck of naked women he just hosed?

I've read the books and played the games, and I think it looks pretty good, honestly, barring a few jarring visual changes that are different from what we are used to. A lot depends on how well Cavill can depict the deadpan tone of Geralt punctuated with really dry humour, and also if they're gonna touch upon some of the weird fairy tale stuff that gives the universe a lot of its character, as opposed to the hyper-gritty Game of Thrones atmosphere.

Vintersorg posted:There’s a monster right at the end. Or does that not count? A two minute trailer with a single monster is not my preferable ratio. As a person who hasn't read the books or played the games and only knows the concept via cultural osmosis, I was definitely expecting it to be much more of a creature feature as opposed to Game of Thrones: Part II. I actually think the show looks pretty good, so I'm holding out hope that they're just holding back on a lot of the unfinished effects shots, but I'm already shifting my expectations. But I'm a sucker when it comes to high fantasy—if someone's putting in some effort, I'll give it a shot. Hell, I watched and enjoyed a decent chunk of The Shannara Chronicles. Though I couldn't make it through Legend of the Seeker. Hype for Dark Crystal, though, reactions to the first episode at Comic Con were pretty glowing. feedmyleg fucked around with this message at 14:59 on Jul 20, 2019 |

I don't know what you folks are talking about, that trailer was full of monsters  Odds of somebody blubbering "b-buh witchers aren't supposed to kill humans" in the first episode are pretty good I'd imagine Cross-Section fucked around with this message at 15:32 on Jul 20, 2019 |
