If you ever do need suggestions, let me know, I got a little list. Also Fran, if I were a mod I would probate your rear end for stepping away from family events or a date to deal with a screaming match between petulant manchildren on a dead gay forum, and I think I speak for all of us when I say that. Please promise us you will never ever do that again. Having said all that, you are by far my favorite mod on this site and I appreciate you Franchescanado posted:

CPL593H posted:A few days ago I got to hang out with one of my favorite comedians (who is an associate and probably friend of Louis CK) in a cigar bar. So it was fun for a bit and then some how the topic of Louis CK came up which is a subject my brother and I have argued about one too many times so I just said I didn't want to have the conversation again. I was then treated to 20-30 minutes (I'm not entirely sure how long because I think I entered a time dilation) of explanation about how CK's side of the story was never told and how the public narrative doesn't reflect the series of events given by his primary accuser. Basically he outright asked me what I thought about CK and I declined to answer, so then he told me "I don't care you can just say it.". It was a trap. If I had to make a list of single most awkward moments of my life this would easily take the number one spot. Who was the comedian? Also what the gently caress could CK possibly have to say that would ameliorate jerking off in front of an unwilling bystander?

Sir Ian McKellen posted:It can be surprisingly tiring in heavy robes twisting and turning even only on the spot, stabbing and slicing the air as a sedentary director watching a TV monitor of the action a few yards away shouts encouragement "More vicious! Behind You! Again - hit him again! It's an effort! It's exhausting! One last effort!" Then blessedly after a couple of minutes when my arms feel they are about to drop off, it's "Excellent Ian! Alright?" as Peter levers himself up from the reinforced armchair (built years back for a visit from Harry Knowles of Ain't It Cool News) and hurries to shake my hand. "And that is a wrap on Ian McKellen!"

I'm utterly baffled that so many people are so angry at the Joker movie, considering how bland it is. Edit: Especially considering a significant portion of those people are angry because another bland movie, marriage story, didn't get all the awards

Steve Yun posted:Guys, guys, I’m sorry, no, there’s a mistake. Parasite, you guys won best picture. This is not a joke. Come up here. I somehow feel this would provoke the least amount of outrage, like everyone would either be happy that it won or just grudgingly concede it was a good choice even if their preferred movie didn't win.

Franchescanado posted:I also thought Birds of Prey was really fun, and the best DC movie since Nolan's Bats. What?! People not liking a DC comic book character based on some entirely unfounded and vague preconceived idea of what the character is supposed to be? Color me shocked. Shocked I say! That's never happened before! This is gonna be a real hot take, but imo not a single one of DCEUs capeflicks have been bad. Even Suicide Squad, the arguably worst of the lot, still had some interesting things going on and was at least ok-ish. Even Shazam, which I really disliked personally, was a pretty decent movie if you can stomach the cheesy 90's family humor. The trick is of course to enjoy the films on their own merits instead of trying to compare them to the competition. I really like that they're letting directors actually go in their own direction instead of churning out the same movie over and over again.

Babysitter Super Sleuth posted:I greatly enjoyed WWDITS and generally found Ragnarok okay (haven't seen Jojo Rabbit yet) but my take on Watiti, in light of both his works and some interviews he's given, is that he's a very good creative who is acutely aware of how quickly Hollywood is willing and able to completely dumpster PoC creators of his tier if they step out of line, and he's already made the calculus to compromise the gently caress out of his bolder tendencies if it keeps him from getting thrown out of his career. My impression of him is that he's either got a serious ego or real thin skin, which is kind of at odds with his comedy genre

Gripweed posted:In Retrospect I should've realized there was probably good reason I had never heard of a Steven Spielberg directed, Robert Zemeckis written comedy starring John Candy Dan Akroyd and John Belushi Speaking of love plots, looking back, does anyone find it a bit strange how they shoehorned in a love story into like, every single movie up to some 10-20ish years ago? Even in movies that really would benefit from not having a love interest (looking at you, every single Batman movie) they still manage to insert some hackneyed romance or some damsel in distress that rides off with the hero at sunset
