Has anyone played a game called DayZ? I got a review copy and holy moly this is the worst game I have ever played. Imagine Fallout but you go minimum 20 minutes every time you start before you find ANYTHING. Items, enemies, other players, anything. You just roam aimlessly for huge swaths of time, doing nothing at all. I'm just baffled by it, it literally does nothing right. The inventory system was designed by a psychopath. The button you use to interact with things is also the button you hold to drop what you're carrying, so you randomly do your weapons all the time.

Seams posted:Is that it's own separate game now? I think it started as a modern for ArmA which might explain the jankiness. That seems to be the case. It's a standalone thing for PS4 (and, presumably, Xbox). It's just bafflingly terrible. It takes me 15 minutes to find anything to do, and the servers reset every 20 minutes haha

I naively hoped they patched it out somehow after reading those bad reviews but nope it is exactly as bad as they say, on every possible level.

Don't make me pick between Raging Bull and Taxi Driver. On the reals though I think maybe Taxi Driver edges it out.

I can't give full marks to The Irishman because it seems like Scorsese is entirely unwilling to actually direct Pacino. I have no idea what that accent he's doing in the film is supposed to be, but Hoffa it ain't.

Seams posted:Pacino ruled as Hoffa. He needed to be over the top imo because De Niro and Pesci's performances were so understated. He was a cartoon, which is fine if you're doing a Nic Cage movie or whatever but for a three hour biopic directed by Scorsese it didn't fit. Pacino did this in the Kevorkian flick too - just put on some random accent that was nothing like the guy he was supposed to be portraying.

Captain Magic posted:Lovecraft is a weird old racist and I don’t understand why so many people try to separate his ideology from his “cool” ideas; the ideas are not that cool and there are better things worth your time I'm fine with it as long as contemporary filmmakers actively erase it, like Richard Stanley making a main character in Color Out of Space (and probably a primary character of future adaptations) a person of colour.

Everyone pony up five bucks for Shudder and watch Tammy And The T-Rex. It has an amazing fight scene in the first few minutes that ends with both participants (one of whom is the late Paul Walker) grabbing each other's dicks. And the movie gets weird from there.

TTBF posted:I'm guessing this is the original, uncensored R rated cut that got buried until recently? You'd guess right! I know I saw the original in the 90's but don't remember it super well, but this cut is loving batshit. Apparently the producers got this animatronic dino and then decided to write a movie around it, and it shows.

I saw that one at a film festival and he said that most of that movie was just stuff he wanted to see if he could get past the Taiwanese censors. I think Hole might be the only one of his I haven't seen. I should correct that! I don't know that I could wholeheartedly recommend Face, though it's pretty interesting, but you should definitely track down Stray Dogs if you can.

Stray Dogs had me shook for days afterwards. I don't remember another fiction film that affected me that way. Docs like Up The Yangtze and The Act Of Killing, sure, but not a fictional story. Thanks for the tip on Afternoon!

It took me about five seconds of looks before I realized what I had just told my fellow government co-workers. It's really wild how so many of us have made anti-indigenous language part of our regular speech. I say that as someone who had to check themselves on almost saying "____ is my spirit animal" yesterday when I should really know better.

Went to see The Lodge last night in a tiny, piss-smelling theatre where the sound was turned up way too high and it is easily the most emotionally-destroying movie I've seen since Hereditary. I felt exhausted leaving the theatre and immediately slept for ten hours.

A lot to unpack there but the notion that movies dealing with crushing hopelessness weren't around or prevalent before Hereditary, especially in the horror genre, sure is something.Chris James 2 posted:

Huh. quote:Randy is an awkward groundskeeper who is obsessed with professional wrestling. Longing for a sense of belonging with grandiose dreams of becoming a wrestling superstar, he is only met with abject humiliation. A brutal shaming at a local wrestling school pushes Randy over the edge and sets out on a blood soaked rampage to punish those who wronged him. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7wxEgtLHYM
