Man, it sucks that the Netflix show Damnation got cancelled after one season. I've been re-watching it and it's pretty good. At first you think it's going to do that ole tripe that the strikers are just as bad as the industrialists, the main strike leader used to be a strikebreaker! But it turns it around and you realise he actually did have a change of faith, and they are really trying to inspire widespread revolt.

I haven't seen it, but i watched that King movie on Netflix, and you've got to give Robert Pattinson props for going from the guy from twilight to a pretty good actor. He's character was so close to over the top in that movie, but still good.

Yeah, I saw it as like a roadshow thing, both movies in a row with a decent intermission, I thought it was a pretty decent representation and pretty memorable. It got tons of appreciation in Cuba, which I like.

I just genuinely like A Knight's tale. The part where he jousts against the other guy whose concealing his identity, and it ends up being a good move, I dunno, pulls my heartstrings in a way lots of movies don't. The villain is pretty good too.

Animorphs had the plucky teens successful win their guerrilla war against the Yeerk, but their lives were kind of destroyed in the process.

I kind of like the movies, but i will say, I saw a comedy movie in toronto and it was way better with audience involvement. it wouldn't always be the case, but it can make a movie better. ps. one time i went to see a movie premiere for some not kid movie, but they had I want to say the mars needs mom trailer in front of it. anywho, it was a big mismatch. so the trailer ends and the theatre is silent. so i just said "that looks good" and i swear to god, a bunch of people laughed. i didn't look around to see if anyone stood up and clapped though.

yeah, rogue one might be my favourite star wars movie. the ending, how it shows how the events of new hope started perfectly, the lack of real jedi (perfectly backs up the "there is no jedi" mindset of han, pretty cool battles. There's a battle in one of the new star wars that is almost exactly the same as Hoth. introduce a couple variables dammit!

babypolis posted:speak for yourself bud, i want to see dudes in fancy hats be totally annihilated by a cannonball too bad the soviet union isn't around any more to have thousands of soldiers acting in scenes. would like to see the miracle at valmy, the italian campaign... best thing about these wars is you can pretty much put a camera on a hill and just film the battle and it would have been pretty close to how the spectators would have seen it.

when the che movies by soderburgh came out, a theatre in toronto was showing them together, that was the last time i saw an intermission, though since they are both technically movies that could be taken apart it might be a bad example.

Stairmaster posted:i cant tell whats goin on in the second half it's loving great! they showed it in havana and people loved it. should warn you though, the second one is slightly sadder. really liked how they filmed them differently to reflect the difference in how his diaries were written about the two conflicts. apparently they wanted to make a middle movie about che going to africa, haven't heard much about it since then though.

Paul Bettany rules, Alan Twodicks rules, Robert Baratheon and Lydia from Breaking Bad are great, soundtrack rocks i can definitely watch it quite a lot. i always get a little choked up when he fights the black prince and then again when he comes back and knights him. it's got heart

it's been on netflix and i can pretty much watch it once a week. django. the part where he kills the director, grabs a horse, a rifle, and some dynamite, and rides off to go back to candyland, the guys in the back of the cage just look at him with the perfect adoring looks on their faces, it's just perfect.

TheSlutPit posted:The main issue imo was the tonal shift, it felt a bit campy for a sequence that was intercut with ostensibly serious scenes. The whole trope of "million year old sensei sighs while unsheathing his sword and proceeds to kick rear end" is extremely good though. yeah, i liked that scene. they at least established it earlier when obi-wan tells anakin that "if you keep up that practice you'll eventually be a swordsman to match master yoda" and anakin goes "i thought i already did". they did seem to establish that all the flipping around was physically exhausting for him, hence why he doesn't do it all the time. sorry, i don't hate the prequels as much as some.

Antonymous posted:what does "keep it 300" mean in regards to the spartans this is from 80 pages ago, and maybe someone else already answered, but i heard "keep it 300, like the romans", was that that romans would write 300 as CCC, so kanye is saying "keep it cool, calm and collected" which is pretty smart. I'll continue trying to catch up to the thread...

mastershakeman posted:everyone agreed that shields would have prevented it and they were down because snoke was overconfident. the end. hell, why don't have the sneak mission on the enemy capital ship be about turning off their shields so that attack would work? instead of disabling the tracker before you destroy that ship anyways? i like star wars because the rebel alliance is based on the Viet Cong, but they made bad movies. I can watch the prequels way more than i can watch the sequels.

Oglethorpe posted:"which star wars do you like" not disagreeing with you but people don't give lucas enough credit, the rebel alliance was based on the Viet Cong. Frosted Flake posted:New Andor ruled but I don’t know what we’re supposed to think about the dead lady giving a speech that could only lead to a massacre? It’s like people only read the first half of a book about the Easter Rising. i thought it was pretty funny she mentions that, "i'll admit calling people to fight for their lives is easy for a dead person" but what the next poster said is correct, it's absurd to expect a full blown rebellion to come out of a single action. StashAugustine posted:I think it's entirely intentional that all these spontaneous uprisings against the Empire end up getting crushed- to take your analogy the Easter Uprising was a complete failure on its own terms but it was the start of a bigger movement that eventually led to independence. Luthen et al are trying not just to spark unrest but eventually redirect it into what will be the Alliance (and ironically, the final coup that seals the deal and unites the fledgling Alliance will be the Death Star) big fan of the immediate turn around on the gently caress around, find out with the imperial messing with the droid.

F Stop Fitzgerald posted:i havent read the book so Inherent Vice just felt like a schizo Chandler neo noir, PTA's The Long Goodbye in his Altman series. i thought it was great. i mean, he's a detective that does tremendous amount of drugs, his relationship with cops is basically unhealthy, with the exception of one cop that begrudgingly puts up with him, random events are what solve the case rather than any amount of work on his part, and there's sudden and final violence. same kind of facial hair too.
