Space Kablooey posted:So is the Queen's Gambit worth watching? I watched the first two episodes and I dunno how to explain it, i feel like i already know the general outline of the plot of the series? You do. Like the mom character for example. Every scene she’s in she’s coughing profusely and lying weakly in bed. I for one was shocked when she died tragically.

gooby pls posted:Why didn’t they give mortal kombat to that guy who made the short film with Michael jai white? I remember that was pretty cool for a low budget fan film thing. Apparently they did give the project to those guys originally, but it languished in development hell for years before new folks were brought on.

It’s not important that Paul WS Anderson doesn’t really make good movies, because Paul WS Anderson never makes money-losing movies.

Neurolimal posted:Also colin trevorrow had a script that followed up on both TFA and TLJ just fine, it has weird points but it would have made for a clean trilogy. I 100% believe the directors hashed this poo poo out beforehand It’s really hard for me to imagine how this is possible given the tonal whiplash between TFA and TLJ

Anyone looking for an amazing fighting game movie should check out The King of Fighters. It has to be one of the most incompetent and baffling things I’ve ever seen.

They were going to, he was actually on board and it got mired in fights about the budget and he left the project after 2 years. The new script was done in 2019 apparently after bringing on the current director (who has done no other movies) in 2015. So they've been marinating this mess of a movie for at least 6 years.

Except for the movies he makes that aren't based on a video game. His only non-game related movie to turn a profit was Alien Vs. Predator. Everything else was a big money loser. Which probably explains why he sticks with video game movies now. He'll probably get a pass for Monster Hunter. Edit: Maybe not huge money losers, his only huge one was Pompeii. mallratcal fucked around with this message at 00:52 on Apr 25, 2021 |

Tip posted:2009 was a big year for fighting game movies While watching Mortal Kombat I wasn’t sure who Cole was or whether he was in the games, and decided to not look him up in case he was from Street Fighter or something. Like, maybe he was gonna be the connection for a crossover movie?? Turns out his name is Cole, he’s 20-something, and he’s Mr. Burns’ assistant.

The AvP movie was probably destined to be garbage no matter what, but goddamn Fox didn’t do it any favors by making PWSA the director and by inexplicably making it PG-13 like so many action movies from that dark dark time

I like that ren is too much of an impatient baby to leave the sith teacher alive, every other sith master understood not to kill the trash gremlin who posed no threat to their plans, but kylo really needs to learn how to suck force ASAP and the weird alien put him in a spooky hole

I have a friend whose dad will literally watch any trash that he can every night after work. Underworld, Aeon Flux, Resident Evil, he just loves to watch pure poo poo halfheartedly and then fall asleep 3/4 of the way through. Now imagine like 50 million of him.

I';ve never fallen asleep during a movie. How the gently caress have executives never heard of in media res? MK starts with a prologue five hundred years in the past of Sub Zero killing Scorpion's family (with location and date titles). edit: it's 13 minutes in until we get to the stupid character made up for the movie. location title for Outworld at 16 minutes in gently caress me gently caress a minute later it cuts back to "Cole Young" having visions of Scorpion.

Star Wars is 3 good movies from the late 1970s and early 1980s, a handful of good video games from the 1990s, a pretty good TV show, and nothing but endless trash otherwise.
