If a teacher used “corporal punishment” on one of my children for exercising their right to free expression, I would stick my thumbs into that teacher’s eye sockets.
Man, you’re fast.
I wish the same could be said for my metabolism.
I think if I were to make a movie, I think I’d to make it with old technology. Make it exactly the same way they did in the 30’s, 40’s, or 50’s. I don’t know it would be in glorious black and white or three-strip technicolor(and I don’t mean a digital re-creation, I mean the real thing). I wouldn’t want to use any newer technologies, or techniques. I would want it to be as old fashion as possible.
I too like to spend unnecessarily excessive amounts of money and do things as inconveniently as possible to get similar results.
I imagine it’d be tricky getting ahold of usuable '30s-'50s film stock, and processing equipment from those decades probably doesn’t exist anymore.
make new '30s-'50s film stock.
That’s like asking for new antiques.
make new processing equipment that is exactly the same as the old.
Ridiculous. Soon you’ll be asking for new releases on LaserDisc.
I just want a new movie made exactly the same way movies used to be made.
It isn’t possible.
What could be done in the 30’s, 40’s, and 50’s can still be done today.
Yeah, and I’m sure it’s physically possible to rebuild the technological infrastructure to make LaserDiscs, too. Thing is it would cost money, too much money, for something that would appeal only to a barely existent niche group.
I sometimes wonder why nobody can properly replicate the look of a film from the era they’re trying to pay homage to. Like how Stranger Things was supposed to be so eighties but it looks just like most modern productions.
Stranger Things looks more late '90s/early '00s to me, but I get ya.

Had no bottom and no power at all.

I’m sure you could get similar results with an extant actor.
But he wants genuine, not similar.

TITLE
13:00 AM
SYNOPSIS
Born in 1966, 19-year-old Nate Reisner is a teenager living in 1985. Born in 1978, 17-year-old Ele Draven is a teenager living in 1995. In both 1985 and 1995 there exists the old Victorian-styled house on 130 Haverstraw Lane, abandoned since the 1960s. When Nate and Ele decide to visit that house late at night, they find in the attic a mysterious door which leads nowhere. In the nanoseconds between 12:59 & 1:00 AM, the door becomes a portal to a place beyond space and time. Stepping through that portal, Nate and Ele are transported to a universe where their dreams — and nightmares — are the stuff of reality.

The Slow and the Dead
SYNOPSIS
Decades ago, a shower of comets struck the Earth, devastating the Earth and killing millions. Of the humans which survived the initial cataclysm, one-third died after a viral agent secreted within the comets was released, transforming them into non-violent but incredibly infectious undead known as “slow zombies” (slombies). Half of the remaining living — those who had escaped exposure to the virus but were still susceptible to it — retreated to impenetrable fortresses, leaving the rest — immune carriers of the virus — to eke out lives in the harsh wilderness beyond.
One man — a scrounger with a motorcycle, a shotgun, and a large bag of chocolate chips — finds himself riding the empty wastelands, coming into conflict with murderous highwaymen, paranoid Unaffecteds, violent slombie cults, and unscrupulous sex traffickers.

That late '70s/'80s look.
That bot which keeps creating those stupid spam threads in “General SW Discussion” every night gets on my nerves. I wish it’d take a hint, and its broken Engrish, and fuck off.
Or you can ignore them.
or sleep at night, and then you will never see those posts!
Damn insomnia. . . .
^You aren’t fooling a soul.

I had pizza as part of supper. It was too hot and now the roof of my mouth’s sore.
The reboot is much worse. At least I’m able to enjoy II, despite how dumb it is.
Hard disagree on all points.
So you don’t think it’s dumb?
ALLOL!
Sorry to hear that. Sounds like a bitch. 😦
They can’t survive on aging comic book fans forever. Without fresh blood, they are doomed.
Marvel tried jumping on the Social Justice bandwagon. It backfired on them.
DC tried the Nu52. It backfired on them.
They should try putting comics back in the supermarkets/convenience stores/newstands, lower the prices, and write stories that new/casual readers can follow without having to have a working knowledge of decades-worth of continuity.

Agree with the second sentence. Haven’t seen the reboot and don’t care to.
