Brilliant move by the marketing department to name the show after its target audience

Netflix is strange because they'll knock it out of the park with some true crime stuff like the Confession Tapes and Exhibit A but a bunch of the other series go on way too long. Exhibit A is probably the most important crime series they've put out and sadly it didn't get a lot of press or cultural penetration like the others.

Raskolnikov38 posted:I’m a mega history nerd and the movie summary makes it sound so loving boring. it’s just a documentary on the pacific war up to midway It reminds me of oldtimey war movies where they were big "event" films that follow multiple characters like Battle of Britain or A Bridge Too Far. The main characters are Edwin Layton (Patrick Wilson) and Dick Best (Ed Skrein) and the film jumps between the efforts of naval intelligence and the Dauntless pilots stepping up after the Avenger crews got ripped apart. Skrein is really engaging as Best and I appreciated how the film didn't try to set up thkse grudge match rivalry subplots you see too often. It's everyone doing their job and overcoming obstacles. It was a good movie.

13 reasons why is great because it caused a huge spike in high school suicides with its message that killing yourself will make you popular. Then the next season they made rapists sympathetic and redeemable. Then it went completely off the rails and Adum and Pals started doing commentaries and it was the funniest poo poo on earth. Especially the school shooters are good and rapists are just victims of SOCIETY episodes. The show for teens is such a colossal shitshow. Just hilariously inept.

Big Mouth is a show I never got the plaudits for. It doesn’t even seem to follow any internal logic or rules and it is just a bunch of rude “lol remember puberty?!” Stuff. I tried watching S1 and just hated it so much I couldn’t continue past about 2/3 of the way.

Time to get into directing music videos so I can make a remake or sequel toa horror classic that does well and every company puts money whatever stupid idea I have. Hopefully I end up a Fincher rather than a Snyder.

Zombies and robots have been in movies for a thousand years and no one ever put those two words together because it just doesn't make any loving sense and yet there it is, out there, more real than any of us.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3 or 4 had ninja pirates. The obvious concept here is have the ninja pirates fight the robot zombies so the internet will implode from the sheer stupidity of this being the reality it created.

If anything robots and zombies make plenty of sense to play around w/ together, seeing as they're both mindless (or percieved as mindless, but turning out to be intelligent & aware) creatures set on a single goal, and both of which have been used as metaphors for mistreated groups, as well as stories where robots/zombies succeed humanity From a practical in-world standpoint it makes more sense to send in robots that cant be ate than washed up vets, too

Since Snyder seems like a nice guy I definitely hate on people like Kurtzman and Orci who make millions writing a lot more since without question anyone in this thread is more talented than they are.

Outside of film opinions, Snyder is a buff guy everyone he works with loves and who worked his way into the business starting from music videos (@ age 23) to moopies (@ age 38) and seems to have a ned flanders-esque synthesis of being excessively christian but a genuinely good person Alex Kurtzman's stepdad broke strikes and marginalized unions and in exchange his failson got a comfy career in bad scripts & lousy showrunning

dundun posted:I tried watching Those Who Wish Me Dead. The first 20 minutes was really dumb and boring, fast forwarded through 10 minutes of "Angelina Jolie looking extremely out of place while pretending she's a badass beer drinking lumberjack or whatever". Watched about 15 minutes more and was bored so decided to watch Tim and Eric reruns instead. I'm assuming the director has blackmail on many of the actors or something to convince them to be in this movie. Figured it would be another dud. Robot zombies is stupid so naturally it's where Snyder went. Kurtzman and Orci roam around the galaxy looking for properties to gently caress up. At least Snyder had the decency to only tank DC. mallratcal fucked around with this message at 21:47 on May 22, 2021 |

So for posterity 1)Godzilla King of the Monsters 2)Kong Skull Island 3)Godzilla vs Kong -500)Godzilla 2014 Kong Skull Island was the best dumb giant monster movie but King of the Monsters was 4 times as stupid and with 4 times as more clapping for giant punches so it barely beats it.

If I had more than 16 brain cells I'd write a really fun script that starts like a Gerard Butler enviro-disaster movie where he tries to talk sense into some evil BP oil drilling company who will just not loving stop drilling. Eventually he finds an unconventional scientist who think she can summon Godzilla, and the movie takes a hard turn as they successfully summon him right towards the oil company. Godzilla proceeds to tear the ever loving poo poo out of it. Oh and Butler has a daughter who helped warn all the blue collar employees and they evacuated. The middle+ management were all bootlickers who don't leave their stations/don't believe a giant monster is coming, so they get murked too. In a reverse-psychology-but-still-too-on-the-nose casting decision, David Attenborough plays the evil oil exec.
