I'm a little surprised it got bumped when Godzilla vs. Kong over-performed expectations with its opening last weekend and people are starting to go out more. By July you have Marvel releasing movies again.

It's not just about money; they're thinking about recruitment numbers as well.

By all accounts the sheer incompetence on display at almost every level of the production is more interesting to pick apart than much of anything that actually happens in the movie. With that said, there are some pretty... memorable lines sprinkled here and there, mostly whenever Kelsey Grammer is on screen. You don't need to rent the film to see those scenes though, just look them up on YouTube or something.

So the reason I wanted to watch the movie suddenly was because I was playing this game.

Man, it's been so long. I haven't even seen it in a bar or store for years and I'm in PA. I think some bars just refuse to carry it after Busch moved the plant to Jersey.

Though I'd also love a Yuengling from before the fundamentalism took over and started buying all their ingredients from the lowest bidder.

Instead of a delay the Snake Eyes origin movie, creatively named "Snake Eyes: GI Joe Origins" has been moved up from October to July. Being as this movie stars handsome man Henry Golding I have a sneaking suspicion that Snake Eyes isn't getting his iconic costume until the very end.

It's so funny because in the GI Joe sequel I absolutely hated Snake Eyes and was very amused when the movie would clown on him.

The now discontinued Nerf Maverick was all the rage around this forum a good 15 or so years ago. Somewhere in the design process they added some tabs to limit how far the cylinder could open, so all you had to do was open it up and file them off. When the cylinder could open all the way you could give it a proper spin, then with a flick of the wrist lock it back into place, worked really well for Russian roulette.

Fixed the years, can't believe it's been that long :psyduck:

I loved Skull Island as much as the next guy, probably more, but at this point Vogt-Roberts has been attached to fifty different projects that I suspect are never coming out. Does this mean Metal Gear is cancelled now too?

Metal Gear seems to be his personal dream project at this rate and it's probably being kept alive by his strong personal desire to make it, he's been attached to it for like 7 years now. I'd be surprised if it winds up getting outright cancelled rather than just kept languishing in development limbo.

There was some forward momentum on it. Not that long ago as they announced Oscar Isaac for Solid Snake, which is more than it has had in years. Also Jordan Vogt-Roberts is enough of a Kojima fan that he ended up in Death Stranding as one of the guys you make deliveries to.

wow...truly tragic...I remember just before gangnam style really hit I was at a showing of Looper at Arclight and I was pretty much drunk and wildly vocally hosed up the whole time (stupid movie, I declare that with complete certainty). once the movie ended I came up in front of the screen and led the audience in a spontaneous gangnam style dance

all those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain

I’m assuming that means the companies that run the theaters are going out of business, leaving the theaters themselves open for purchase by monopolistic studios, cementing their power even further.
