The Hateful Eight 8.5/10
Finally got around to checking this out, it wasn’t showing at my local theater and I was in no mood to see TFA three times as well as The Revenant once in the same month. Beautiful cinematography and amazing acting came together here but the film is actually missing most of the Tarantino-isms. Check it out!
Maybe it’s just bad. Who knows?
That’s pretty much 100% inevitable after seeing TFA!
You must be a hoot at forced and awkward family gatherings

I’m just going to leave this here.

Here’s everything wrong with ATOC packed into one video.
I think there’s more than five minutes wrong with AOTC
I could see it before but now it’s gone…
I like pencil rubbing save for the X through the screen
Interesting, I saw Zootopia and Big Hero 6 in 3D at Walmart today. I thought Canada sold the same stuff as the US
Picked up an Eone triple feature blu-ray for $10 today. It has Kick-Ass, Lockout, and Dredd. Upon opening the case I realized that Dredd is actually a 2D/3D copy. $3.33 is pretty cheap for a good action flick in 3D.
Disney releases all of their Marvel Movies and some of their Animated Features (Big Hero 6, Zootopia, The Good Dinosaur, and Inside Out) in 3D.
I just wanted to quote this thread cuz Darth posted similiar thing. Ignore dis necrobumpp.
Hey, how did you know something Wario64I posted a month before your account? Are you a fan of Wario? 😉
A mystery that is quite impossible to solve
Could you censor bad formatting? It’s very triggering.
Fight Night Champion is the best sports game ever made.
Sorry, no. It’s NHL '94.
Yeah it’s up there as well. Nobody ever talks about '95 but they’re pretty much the same
Birdman 9/10
Interesting but weird, all of the performances were spectacular and Inarritu/Lubezki’s cinematography was amazing. Check it out!
In a documentary (or maybe a commentary I can’t even remember) George said that Marquand was good at tense/dark shots because of his experience with horror. This is why parts like when Leia saves Han from carbonite and the throne room scenes are such great scenes. As for the rest of the movie I’m not sure why George would hire a horror director to film Ewoks and Admiral Ackbar but whatever.
I just got Batman: Arkham City - Armored Edition to replace my digital copy on PS3. The new wii u features are really immersive and creative.
Fight Night Champion is the best sports game ever made. It has a really well done campaign and the boxing controls are really good! I also love the way the graphics look on peoples’ skin and sweat, it’s really realistic although the faces look pretty fake.
I’d probably (using any deleted scenes possible to keep it as long as possible) make a streamlined wonder woman-less bullet conspiracy-less subplot-less version. The only subplot intact would be Doomsday.
That’s a density post though
Then why include the OT at all if it’s pretty much retconned?
God still works amazing things in those peoples lives and their stories held in those books have great power.
He also fucks a lot of people up in the OT as well. Job is a good example and the Amorites are another.
God didn’t even do anything to Job, he just let Satan do those things (which he would let Satan do anyway). Plus Job is considered to be fiction/poetry and not to be taken literally. The Amorites were a bunch of bullies going around murdering whoever they wanted and worshipping false gods as well as ignoring the christians who warned them of what god was going to do if they didn’t cut it out. God’s punishments were severe but all of them could have been prevented.
We should start complaining about this vital issue on Tumblr
I’m sure it’s already being done.
(From this thread.)
…I learned many things about the Bible to fuel my hatred of it…
You actively hate the Bible?
Yes, when it has things passages saying to kill homosexuals (and pretty much everyone else who isn’t a straight worshiper of Yahweh),
I’m not sure what passages you’re speaking of, so I don’t know how many ways the text can be interpreted. (Also, about your parentheses, I don’t think a homosexual can effectively worship God.)
This is not true, it simply says that it’s a sin to marry the same sex. Just as it is a sin to have pre-marital sex.
a raped virgin must marry her rapist
Well, I don’t recall it saying that in those terms, but people aren’t supposed to have sexual relation before marriage, and if that is committed, the parties are supposed to get married.
No, the context of this was that when a woman is raped she becomes an outcast. The rapist was told to marry her and care for her because he made her undesirable. Marrying her was pretty much what he had to pay for raping her.
and a woman should not have authority over a man
“I’m not sure what passages you’re speaking of…”
I know what he’s talking about but it gets pretty complicated, I recommend actually doing some research.
As for the “Finn Will Be Fine” Scene, I do think it’s an awkward scene by itself, but with the right context, it can work. I inserted the scene between Rey and Leia’s hug and R2’s reawakening.
To make it less weird, try to add some music or something. That would probably make it play better as well.
So I’ve been working on making a legit looking poster for The Battle Begins using miscellaneous Drew Struzan art. Here’s a work in progress
I think it looks great, but just one little recommendation: If you’re trying to keep the reveal of Palpatine being Sidious, (Which is what I thought I read the other night while binge reading this thread) then I would move Palpatine further away from Maul and make him a little smaller. Right now I’m kind of getting that evil mastermind feel from it. Really good otherwise though!
Yeah that makes sense, He actually already looked that big in the original painting so I’ll just shrink him and move him.
ROTS has a better story to tell, TPM has the best execution, AOTC sucks all around. That’s my conclusion.

Ahsoka shouldn’t exist. She was contrived for the series, and then conveniently dispatched from the Jedi order, and she is never mentioned in ROTS.I’ve always thought this, it’s just strange that they decided to do it. Especially since Anakin wasn’t even a master yet.
I hated it and thought it was weird until the season 2 finale of rebels. It just clicked for me. Added an extra layer of tradegy
Agreed, they eventually added depth to the character as well as more depth to Anakin but overall I don’t care for her.
I really wanted the blue keyboard man 😦
