Honestly, no point badgering DE over it, considering he isn’t going to watch and pretty much never talks about it. Lot less annoying than if he was posting everyday about how Rian Johnson shat on his childhood and murdered Luke’s characterization and ate a baby and wore a lobster sweater once and how it’s clear that Mark Hamill hates him for that or whatever the shit.

Did that stuff happen in the movie?

If it did then I need to go grab a BD copy and give it a watch.

No, sorry for the confusion, Rian was the one who ate a baby and wore a lobster sweater.

Is the footage included in the behind-the-scenes featurettes?

Lobster sweater, yes. Baby eating, no (that’s here: https://www.instagram.com/p/BffVizCD3ew/?utm_source=ig_embed).

This is the greatest thing I’ve seen all day, and I actually kinda liked the Porgs.

It is great and baffling to me that you can get a cake to look like that. As for the porgs, I think you’d have to work pretty hard to actively dislike them.

DE hasn’t seen it, and won’t, because he dislikes several concepts in it. I love it, and might be in the group that he lumps together as “thinking it was handed down by God” or whatever. I disagree with him, but he’s far more agreeable than many of the angry fanboys I’ve encountered.

And passively?

I guess you could dislike the design or whatever, but in the film itself they have pretty minimal screen time and are ultimately of little consequence.

No its humor and star wars should never have humor. Remember how serious Han Solo was all the time?

I liked most of the film, but think a lot of the more questionable decisions could be trimmed out without losing much.

To be fair, most of the complaints about the humor revolve around the humor not being funny. That’s different than complaining about there being humor.

King of Jazz (1930) - The Criterion Collection just released this, after receiving a rather lengthy and expensive restoration from Universal. It was pretty much what I expected, but I didn’t expect to be as disinterested as I was.

Last Jedi’s got some problems. (though I’d argue relatively minor)

Exactly one problem.

I thought you vowed to not see that movie.

I haven’t.

I don’t know where you’ve gotten the idea that Duracell has seen TLJ.

He said that it was beyond perfection.

Ah. I took that as sarcasm.
I still do. Could be wrong.

I’m 100% certain it was sarcasm. He hates what they did with the characters so he definitely wouldn’t like it if he did see it.

I was being sarcastic indeed. In fact, I was making fun of people like fmalover, who act like TLJ was handed down from God Themself.

TLJ remains on my anti-watchlist and will remain there, along with The Dark Knight Rises, the Snyderman films, and any other movies which present unappealing “alternative interpretations” of beloved characters.

You have your own kind of ignorant thinking

Good.

Lol.

Not as LOL-worthy as hating a director after having seen a single one of his films, I’d wager.

Assuming you’re talking about David Lynch, one film is more than zero.

I thought it was two but it turns out he didn’t do Naked Lunch. :p

I believe you have to watch at least four of a filmmaker’s films before drawing a conclusion on his work as a whole, but that’s just me.

I believe you have to watch a single movie before drawing a conclusion on that movie, but that’s just me.

I haven’t drawn any conclusion on TLJ beyond that the story holds no appeal for me. If you want to go ahead and interpret that as meaning “TLJ is shit, Rian Johnson’s an asshole, etc.”, by all means do so, but it isn’t an accurate representation of my thoughts at all.

You haven’t seen the movie and yet you’re bitching at how a “beloved character was interpreted.”

So, sure, why not.

I don’t need to see Man of Steel to know that Jonathan Kent tells Clark that it’s alright to let people die if it’s in Clark’s best interests. That version of Jonathan is wholly unlike the Jonathan Kent I’ve come to know in both the comics, prior movies, and TV shows, the Jonathan who taught Clark to do his very best to help humanity. That bit of characterization, combined with other elements of the movie I’ve been exposed to through trailers/screencaps/reviews/etc., have left me with the impression that MOS isn’t a movie I want to see. Does that mean I believe it’s automatically a bad film? No. But it’s not a film that I, as a Superman fan, influenced by Superman stories with an opposing aesthetic and message, have any interest in seeing.

Hey asshole, knock it off. Man of Steel is my favorite movie and if you don’t like it, then you just need to get silenced by force in my opinion.

Why don’t you knock it off as well? Warning for personal attack.

So hard to tell when one doesn’t use emoticons.

Is it though? It was fairly obvious.

Aye, it is - hard to tell, that is.

It’s also not a great look for the site either when others see people on here calling each other assholes or telling each other to f*** off etc. Nor when it’s taken the wrong way - and it kicks off between members here - which is a part of the reason it was also asked to stop.

That’s why I prefer “fup ur.” People who aren’t us have no idea what it means.

He had to have been joking. No one’s favorite movie is Man of Steel…

Precisely. The humor in TFA was handled much better in my opinion. The jokes were just much better placed and didn’t detract from certain emotional moments like some in the Last Jedi. And some of it just plain isn’t funny.

Zodiac (2007)

Has many great scenes but overall it was somewhat disappointing. The historical integrity of the movie in all honesty got in the way of telling a good story. The pacing got pretty bad by a certain point in the movie. I really loved the first hour or so and then it just dragged and dragged. It picked up a little towards the end but overall, not a favorite of Fincher’s. Seven just did everything about this movie so much better.

My personal opinion is a weird hybrid. I think the humor in TFA was indeed better placed, but it still wasn’t funny. In TLJ it was often inappropriate, but it was funnier. So we’ve got bad humor that doesn’t ruin any “good” moments, and good humor that is often a mood breaker. What a conundrum. I need a pizza for this
