I watched the 2019 Matthew McConaughey film Serenity and I think it's the dumbest movie I've ever seen. Not sure how they got these big name or semi-famous actors to sign on to this.

Check out Tiptoes, it's a romantic drama streaming free on Prime right now starring Matthew Mcconaughey and Gary Oldman and it's unbelievable it was ever made.

If you've never heard of it you should just watch this trailer to be blown away by the twist:

Vader's List, who cares if him secretly doing good all along undercuts his arc in the OT? We need more Vader in this Vader movie!

Maybe they could release new special editions where they change some of his dialog to make it clear that he was a secret spy all along. Like in the part where he interrogates Leia he could whisper, "Make sure you guys check all the exhaust ports on those plans."

Details have come out about Zack Snyder's new movie, Army of the Dead. It's a heist film where a team breaks into a quarantined zombie infested Las Vegas to rob the unprotected casinos.

Kind of a cool concept that comes across 0% in the title Army of the Dead. Doesn't sound like a heist film, or a Las Vegas film, just sounds like a generic Romero-esque zombie flick. I wonder if Netflix will change the title at the last minute, like when they removed slutty from Teenage Bounty Hunters a couple weeks before release.

Dawn of the Dead is the only Snyder film I've ever liked so I do have some irrational hope it will be good.

Also Teenage Bounty Hunters was pretty good and after watching it the original title Slutty Teenage Bounty Hunters is even more baffling.

The Rules of Attraction was kind of an American Psycho spin off about his brother.

They tried to get Christian Bale for a single scene but he turned it down so they cast Casper Van Dien and then very wisely threw the scene out.

No they killed her off in Season 2

I watched all of Season 2, but have very little memory of it. Turns out I was wrong, her name was plate face:

quote:

"There was a sketch," Berg said. "I remember for Episode 3, because you [Page] had done a lot of concept sketches of different creatures, of different augmented humans, and I remember at one point, like, Akiva Goldsman, who's an amazing executive producer on the show and was directing Episode 3, ran through the office at one point and was like, 'I want Plate Face, I call Plate Face!' We were like, 'I don't know what you're talking about,' but he fell in love with that sketch, and sometimes it's that -- you start from there: Who is this character? What is she about? And her name became Airiam, She's kind of a favorite in the [writers'] room; we love her. She's fantastic."

It makes sense that the writer's favorite character is a shiny toy that they throw out in the second season.

Hadn't heard Strain had died. She'd been "gone" for years due to dementia - really scary your brain can get fried due to an injury you sustained thirty years prior.

When I google Julie Strain nothing comes up about her being dead except this article from last January clarifying that she isn't dead.

Of course, it might just be news places not covering it.

Without player interaction it's pretty meh as it would look like Guybush doing random things that somehow work out for him. As the player it makes sense to you, but the audience wouldn't have the same cues.

This is like arguing that Resident Evil would make a bad movie because there would be too much inventory management for the audience.

There's a whole cool world and vibe to the games along with a unique sense of humor, I think it could work. I'd want it to be animated though.

Also, there was already an attempt at adapting the series into an animated film, and from the description it sounded bad.

I looked this up and found this quote:
https://monkeyisland.fandom.com/wiki/The_Curse_of_Monkey_Island_(film)
"The really interesting thing is that the movie was going to be produced by Steven Spielberg (who is a big Monkey Island fan himself). He asked Ted Elliott, a script writer who has worked on several Disney movies (including 'Treasure Planet') and on 'Steven Spielberg’s Director's Chair' game, to help with the story for the MI movie. The Monkey Island movie never got the green light and years later Ted Elliott wrote 'Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl', which took several ideas from Monkey Island. So basically the first two PotC movies are the Monkey Island movie".

I am not surprised. I got heavy Monkey Island vibes off the first two movies, and then one of the sequels was an adaptation of "On Stranger Tides", the book that inspired Monkey Island.
