I liked the mando show but not enough to remember that there’s new seasons Andor looked really good as a behind the scenes no 6 heroes/families to save the universe kinda show, which imo Star Wars suffers from massively

Analytic Engine posted:The Knick is an awesome show he made about 1900s NYC doctors staring Clive Owen. The techno soundtrack makes the whole production feel modern and vaguely cyberpunk, which matches how these characters feel about their own changing world this looks really good

I have obtained the Knick and will be watching it tonight. thanks folks!

ok so the knick is very good, but Jesus Christ I was not prepared to be wincing and squirming from watching 1900s surgeries the missus likes it too so I see it as an absolute win

Sagebrush posted:Doesn't Justin Roiland do the voices for, uh, both Rick and Morty, and like half the other characters in the show imo they should kill the current Rick and morty with the new Rick and morty voice guys and then have them comment about how annoying those two’s voices were I will also accept r&m having a different voice every episode

Casual Encountess posted:a kind of lovely realization i had a few months ago is with my latest lap into older films that i can now say that i've pretty much seen every notable movie from like 1973-2005. like sure there are like hellraiser sequels and whatever i havent gotten to but for the most part i can confidently say that ive seen almost every mildly notable movie from those eras. and its kind of wild to me that many of those movies will never have any kind of modern equivalent made. like heat for example, or like the hunt for red october. hell even a theater comedy like superbad that just absolutely swept pop culture is never really gonna happen in that way again. movies like die hard or terminator 2 were lightning in a bottle that just doesn't happen like that anymore. I would argue Fury Road and Terminator 2 are cut from the same cloth, in that FR was the first action movie I had seen in ages that I left the theatre all smiles

haveblue posted:has anyone done that besides Lucas? and he only did it because he was so gobsmacked by the possibilities of CGI compared to 70s practical effects and no one was able to tell him it was a terrible idea and force him to stop I thought Lucas did that to be able to release under Lucasfilm and cut his ex wife out of any earnings on the original releases

skipping 800 posts to say I watched Shin Godzilla, and it’s the first reboot I’ve watched that gave me the same feelings as watching the original ones when I was little ![]() it’s very very good and I really like the obvious allusions to Fukushima and the tsunami and the condemnation of its handling

speaking of 2001, does anyone remember what old movie it was where they venture into a black hole? I remembered it the other day but I’m pretty sure it’s not the 1979 one. I can’t find a clip of them going through the black hole and just remember it being super trippy and weird, but I also don’t remember the android slave stuff either

Fart Sandwiches posted:my kid is about to turn 3 and we just showed her ponyo. she has an eye mask she sleeps with that she will pull over her eyes if something is too exciting but for the most part it was just a fantastic journey for her. such a cute movie I was thinking about showing my kids Ponyo, but I couldn’t remember if it and the other Miyazaki movies were 2 and 4 yo friendly. based on this, we’ll watch it this week! ![]()
