Then, why don’t you un-subscribe?

My upscale directly relates to this topic.

No, it doesn’t. This thread is for Ady’s work. That’s what we’ve subscribed for. That’s what we check updates for.
The Mod’s told me they’d let you slide since your project failed & seemed to be over when they noticed it. If you are going to continue your work on it, I suggest starting your own thread for it.

Wow! Nice!

Instinct comin’ in HOT!!
😄
I’ve never seen any Dr. Who. Just random clips.

could you start your own thread about it? so I don’t have to read about it?
Thanks.

As a kid I would sometimes catch the Simpsons on TV. I didn’t love it, but it was perfectly serviceable. Then I kept hearing online when I got older that people thought it was bad now and was better in the earlier scenes. One day I watched the very first episode in order to test that. The one where they find the dog on Christmas or something. The quality was exactly the same. Only the animation had changed. If it were written today, I wouldn’t have noticed the difference.

Conclusion: The Simpsons hasn’t gotten any worse since it started.

I’m trying really hard to honour the rules of this thread, but this is pushing my buttons something fierce. . . .

Do the rules count if the opiner hasn’t seen the thing they are opining?

It was mildly amusing then and is mildly amusing now.

…& it was really good in between. Where you couldn’t be bothered to watch.
Great analysis & post.

Starwar is definitely not more nuanced than that.

Yeah, that’s a style, not a genre.

to say it’s about doing the right thing still leaves the actual moral underneath, what is the right thing to do?

The right thing to do is the thing that benefits all instead of one. Acting selflessly for the greater good.
That’s pretty much what the phrase means.

The original 1968 film is a classic. I’m mostly indifferent to everything else to varying degrees, though Conquest is a decent movie on its own.

I really dig the OG as well. I liked the first of the new movies… whatever it was called.
Had no interest in seeing the others though.

I’m completely and utterly indifferent to the Planet of the Apes franchise.

Does anyone have a strong attachment to it, though?

Yes, of course. It’s a large & successful franchise.
Dura stated his opinion in this thread for a reason.

It’s really nice to hear Frasier is appreciated here as I’m so used to people saying Friends is the best.

Friends is absolute trash.

Here it is.

Thread should’a closed on the first page.

Frasier is great.
Not better than Seinfeld, but certainly on par.
It’s the only show of the era that can claim that position.

why use a primitive one when you can have a modern one?

It is superimposed, which is why it doesn’t actually crash through anything, but I still see a car flipped on it’s side. Like it hits one of those stunt flip-ramps at the beginning of the shot.

I agree Zimmer is overrated as all hell, but Shawshank has a great score. It has several “humble” tunes.
Not that humability has anything to do with great music.

Anakin Starkiller said:

I never understood the appeal of The Shawshank Redemption.

A great story well told. Great charters & performances. Beautiful cinematography. Wonderful score. Resonating themes.
You don’t have to like it, but lots of appeal.

a car, for sure. It flips as it goes through the windows & you mostly see the bottom of it as it crashes through the set.

Oh yeah. This is my 2nd go through. Watched on D+ during my free month!

I love the original TIE. Those huge wings are intimidating. Looks very Gothic.

I’m still amazed that Luke brought an ice cream maker to Dagobah. 2 in one movie!
I love how Mandalorian gave those canisters some in-world purpose. 😉

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Tim Burton is better than the Mel Stuart 1971 version.

It was inevitable that at some point an opinion would come in so hot that it would get smoke in some eyes.
It was also inevitable that at some point an opinion would come in so absolutely foul that a reputation would be ruined.
Friends, I think we have both here.
A moment of silence, please.

Your quote is putting words in my mouth. 😉

FIXED!
