the second a back to basics two fisted adventure story,

Live and Let Die is a weird blaxploitation film that is downright farcical all the way through. I like it, but that’s what it is.

I will admit that I’ve only been absolutely destroyed by how devastatingly bad a picture is a handful of times. One was CR 2006. One was Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. One was TFA.

No film should have that effect on anyone.

I’m not super familiar with all the Bond movies, but I loved License to Kill.
Usually when I’ve mentioned this, the Bond fans get huffy, but not on this site. I mentioned it in the Bond thread and kinda expected to be throwing a bomb into the tread, but surprisingly I found that I’m not alone!

It’s pretty good. I didn’t like it when I was a six year-old, but I liked it more once I was at least 15 or 16.

4K restoration on Star Wars
Time

For one they already made a deal, when they released the digital collection, and re-released the blurays of the SE in 2015. Secondly, Fox will own Star Wars forever, so any OOT release will need to involve Fox today, in 2020 or at any other time until the copyright runs out around 2075.

It isn’t even really a deal so much as it is that Disney would finance the restoration and wouldn’t want to release it when Fox is getting the cut on all three films.

Nah man the 2011 colors are pretty much shit.

Yeah I’ve never actually seen anybody complain about them outside of this forum besides maybe fanedit.org. I personally don’t like despecialized colors (everything else about it is amazing), and yes 2.7 is better but I’m not going to say it’s shit. The 2011 colors bother me in a few places, but I would say less than 5 places.

I mean you’re wrong but that’s okay.

Thanks for not being a dick about somebody else’s personal preference, we have enough of that around here anyway.

That’s the general attitude with color correction for some reason. I lose respect for anyone that obsesses over it, no matter what.

I don’t buy that all these racists that wouldn’t have voted otherwise came out of the woodwork to support Trump.

Neither do I, but I think you underestimate the number of racists if not outright white supremacists that vote for Democrats, and even voted for Obama.

No I don’t.

EDIT: By the way, I’ve been exposed to my fair share of astoundingly stupid people. Your “close proximity” to white supremacists isn’t unique. I know a lot of passively racist idiots, and they don’t vote Democrat, and they definitely didn’t vote for Obama. White supremacists didn’t vote for Obama in any meaningful quantity. I see no reason to bother discussing that.

Barely hyperbolic. It’s the 25 year-old laserdiscs they’d put in instead of the bluray. As I’ve said for the millionth (hyperbolic) time, I’m not talking about Star Wars. I’m talking about films with fine, if not great, blu rays that are shit on by people who are suddenly experts on color correction that have a strange nostalgic attachment to laserdiscs.

The Place to Go for Emotional Support
Time

I use this thread as a bitching thread because my only emotion is anger and I’m told I need support for it. Ha!

Distraction through entertainment is my only means of coping with shitty life because I don’t talk to anyone, seeing as how I hate almost everybody, and I’ve never drank or done any kind of mind-altering drugs because I’ve been warned that based on my manner and family history it’ll likely be drastically harder on me than most people. I also don’t see the appeal of losing control of myself. I’m very vigilant and like to have my wits about me.
