I think the idea that McConaughey went back through space time to save his family was a great plot point that was sadly very poorly and lazily executed. “Future human generations created this five-dimensional space for you.” yeah, sure. So why didn’t they all die in Dust Bowl 2.0 the first time around then?
I believe the film was operating with the Novikov self-consistency principle in mind.
McConaughey’s dad was obviously an alien that built the five dimensional space for him. Haven’t you seen Third Rock From the Sun?
But where does the gremlin from Twilight Zone: The Movie fit in to all this?

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly - all the points

I’ve only seen around 350 films, but so far, to me, the entire graveyard sequence is the greatest piece of cinema ever. The incredible shots, amazing music, mathematical editing, great revelations…
Without spoilers, what are other scenes that could be objectively the best of all time?

Really? Well I’ve seen at least 5 times that number of films and I’d probably say the best sequence in cinema ever is…
…hmm wait you might be on to something.

I mean, I’ve see a few bits and pieces as my girls watched it, and it seemed fine for a kids movie…but 10/10?

Nostalgia trip. I love Charlie Brown and Snoopy, what can I say?

I haven’t seen it (don’t plan to), but I think any Peanuts film animated in 3D CGI should recieve a negative score on principal. 😉

THE WAYS OF HIS HEART ARE MUCH LIKE THE SUN. SONIC RUNS AND RESTS; THE SUN RISES AND SETS.
DON’T GIVE UP ON THE SUN. DON’T MAKE THE SUN LAUGH AT YOU.

Probably.

Who cares what your principal thinks about it, I think principle is more important to lean on.
But you can’t lean on principle, because it’s not a physical object. I lean on my principal all the time, as long as he’s not inconvenienced.

You’ll never reach a higher plane with that attitude.
I’ve only seen the trailers, but they were kind of restrained with the CGI, and at least attempted to stay true to the look of the strip. Pity Fox seems more interested in Blu Sky Studios cranking out more Ice Age sequels than doing something new.
And when was the last Peanuts theatrical feature? 1980?
Where were you in '77?

I agree–the CGI was very subtle. The 3D appearance was accomplished through relatively (compared to other 3D animation) restrained shadowing.

THE VOID (2017)
Well this one just snuck up on me. Had never heard anything about it before I saw it listed playing at my local theater. Watched the trailer and knew I had to see it.
It’s an 80s horror throwback in the vein of THE THING or a Croenenberg film. I’d say about 99% of the effects were all done practically. Loved that. One of the actors looked alarmingly like Donald Pleasence.
The film itself is pretty good. It’s a tense ride and keeps you on your toes throughout. I’m very impressed with the directors Steven Kostanski and Jeremy Gillespie. I’ll be keeping my eye out for future releases from their production company Astron-6.
If you’re a fan of 80’s horror and or practical effects work you definitely don’t want to miss this one.

Knight of Cups.
Great Malick film, much better than The Tree of Life.

5/10
Not bad, not great. Just Average. Entertaining but didn’t break any particularly creative ground. Was fun to listen to Mark voice the Joker though.
