muscles like this! posted:In an opposite of aging poorly it turns out that Rifftrax is going back into old releases to edit out any jokes that are considered bad taste/offensive. Cool - that reminds me of, was it a Gibson novel or K.W. Jeter who had a novel, with a scene where someone who was watching movies in which cursing and smoking had been edited out?

Byzantine posted:It stuck out to me cause I first read the book in 2012 on a bus ride with a bunch of smokers, so the "by 2012 smoking became so abhorrent people start editing it out of old movies" thing got a laugh. Nice. I don't know why I remembered that scene as opposed to any other, or indeed any real idea of the book's plot

Don Gato posted:Speaking of Twilight Zone, I'm binging classic Twilight Zone episodes and the ending narration to Death's Head Revisited is amazing and the opposite of aging poorly: That one is amazing. Changing of the Guard is also great. And, Kick the Can. For not-especially-meaningful but goodI also like And When the Sky was Opened but that's mainly because it has USAF people in it Also 30 fathom grave, navy centered but good

Detective No. 27 posted:Sir Topham Hatt's job got automated and now he's Sir Topham Ramen. *BBC Narrator voice* "Once he was feared and loved as Sir Topham Hatt. With the rise of Brexit, and through a combination of market decline, business efficiencies and the deleterious effects of late-stage capitalism, he is now a freelance 'gig economy' laborer. If he is addressed at all, it is sneeringly, and these days he answers to Johnny Ballcap."

muscles like this! posted:The EPA guy in Ghostbusters is definitely a weird thing because the only reason he's wrong is because he's against the main characters. Egon even mentions earlier in the movie that the stuff they're using is unlicensed and not thoroughly tested. Yeah, I mean the Ghostbusters are cool guys and all but unlicensed particle accelerators that can cause the end of the world if you cross the streams are probably not something you want to just let dudes run around with willy-nilly

Mamkute posted:Daredevil S2: How did the Punisher survive the boat exploding? Anyway, because this thread isn't the IIMM thread, I have to bring up that New York is not crime-addled enough anymore to want or need the Punisher. not sure how crime addled a place would need to be before I'd sanction a vigilante murderer executing people in any way he seems necessary
