If I was writing and directing a Suicide Squad movie I would do the fancy character intro with nameplates as they are actively being killed or incapacitated on-screen it would function as the opening credits too

I gotta say, that was pretty damned fun. At the very least, Gunn is doing something different with the punchman movies.

I'm very happy with Stallone playing King Shark and James Gunn continuing his legacy of killing Michael Rooker in a dumb way early on. I'm going to watch the second half.

I thought The Suicide Squad was really good. It has a lot of wasted space and scenes that are questionably useful to anything but it flows well and a lot of jokes land and it feels like a real movie (unlike Suicide Squad).

PC Principal doesn’t work as a plot device, but since they’ve relaxed and kept him around I think he works GREAT as a character. My favorite episode of all time forever was Scott Tenorman but it was usurped by Tweek x Craig, which is a PC Principal episode.

Some of The Suicide Squad could be grating, and the serious/sentimental bits feel pretty unearned if you start to think about them at all. But it was fun and insane enough that I really enjoyed it, and it didn’t make me feel any of the depressed existential dread that Marvel/DC movies usually do. Good watch

its all nice on rice posted:I think his mom watched. She's the blindfolded old woman just watching him fail a test of temptation. One theory I read is that the lady is one of the other witches the mother cast the spell with in the beginning of the movie. The lady has the same hair style as one of them when Gawain arrives at the lord's house. I think I’ve got a decent enough grasp one the movie, but what was up with the giants?

In the GK thread one goon suggested that they are a metaphor for being carried by your mother, because the giants are these ethereal and otherworldly being that clearly seen as nurturing and sweet because they have babies and you can see them being really motherly and I thought that was pretty cool.

Poo In An Alleyway posted:The South Park musical is basically the only musical I can stand to watch. I generally hate musicals but Bigger Longer and Uncut is one I absolutely adore. The songs are insanely well written. And Trey Parker is a good keyboardist, he plays a mean clavinet on most of the Chef Aid album tracks (including the Chocolate Salty Balls which has some awesome clav grooves)

I just read a review of it and I can't wait to see what this is referring to: Free Guy’s villain — scenery-devouring Taika Waititi, who looks to be having the most fun of anyone in the film (which is saying something in a movie starring the perpetually sunny Reynolds) — gives not one, but two speeches about corporate greed and spinning out endless sequels with familiar characters and properties to make money off an existing stable of IP instead of making something new and original. Free Guy positions this as an ostensibly bad thing — only for the film to spin on its heels and throw in some of the most egregious cross-promotional references this side of Space Jam: A New Legacy in the final act. (It is possible to pinpoint the exact second of the post-production process that Disney’s acquisition of 20th Century Fox was completed.)

The overly long Harley Quinn solo scenes annoyed me more than autopiloted sentimental scenes. They seem to belonged in a different movie, a generic heist movie where Margot Robbie is the producer. The scenes between Iris Elba and cartoonly wrestling man are very funny. I think they out deadpooled Deadpool. I watched Guardians 2 once and I don't need to watch it again. This one I might watch it again. This is basically a kid taking his favorite superhero (super douchebags) action figures and smashing them and doing sound noice effects with his mouth. Fun stuff. edit, also watch out for Idris Elba's gut look amazingly fit whenever his helmet is on lol. stephenthinkpad fucked around with this message at 11:09 on Aug 6, 2021 |
