Hurlshort Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 I'll watch Ryan Gosling in anything, so I'm pretty sure I'll be happy with the new Blade Runner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gromnir Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 we like ryan gosling as an actor, but he gets miscast as a tough guy. looks as if they is trying to make him tough in bladerunner 2049. mistake. am knowing many people like drive. it were an okie dokie movie and had the kinda 60s/70s rough edge to it we miss. but gosling as a tough guy? he woulda' spent half his life trapped in a locker with his butt cheeks taped together if he had gone to Gromnir's high school.

Agiel Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 Props to it that it knows enough to imply the chestburster (spineburster?) and the xenomorph. However, the cover song for this gave me a Predators vibe for some reason, as in it turns out to be a passable movie but doesn't come close to holding a candle to the original. Though of course since this is just another movie in a long-running franchise that's a bit much to ask, but that one audiodrama "Out of the Shadows" filled me with confidence that there's still some awe and wonder to be found with the series. Quote “Political philosophers have often pointed out that in wartime, the citizen, the male citizen at least, loses one of his most basic rights, his right to life; and this has been true ever since the French Revolution and the invention of conscription, now an almost universally accepted principle. But these same philosophers have rarely noted that the citizen in question simultaneously loses another right, one just as basic and perhaps even more vital for his conception of himself as a civilized human being: the right not to kill.” -Jonathan Littell <<Les Bienveillantes>> Quote "The chancellor, the late chancellor, was only partly correct. He was obsolete. But so is the State, the entity he worshipped. Any state, entity, or ideology becomes obsolete when it stockpiles the wrong weapons: when it captures territories, but not minds; when it enslaves millions, but convinces nobody. When it is naked, yet puts on armor and calls it faith, while in the Eyes of God it has no faith at all. Any state, any entity, any ideology that fails to recognize the worth, the dignity, the rights of Man...that state is obsolete." -Rod Serling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orogun01 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Kind of got the sense that this implied that Deckard was a Replicant (who can somehow live a full human lifespan). Why couldn't had Harrison Ford died in 2016 and not make this movie? I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gromnir Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Might need to re-watch the original: dunno. as much as am liking the cast, this strikes us a movie not in need o' a sequel. in fact, a sequel with mostly intact returning cast is a bit at odds with the theme o' the first movie. after all, as the first flick were relating the stories o' a collection o' young and self-destructive heroin addicts. one expects middle-age to have wrecked terrible carnage 'pon the lot o' em. not great fodder for a sequel w/o necessarily diminishing the first movie. the trailer does makes us wanna listen to the soundtrack. we have the original soundtrack on a cd in a box, in a closet, behind and/or beneath other large boxes. hmmmm. perhaps am gonna simple get a youtube playlist to indulge nostalgia.

Nonek Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 (edited) Kind of got the sense that this implied that Deckard was a Replicant (who can somehow live a full human lifespan). For me the Blade Runner is not the character I wish to know about, it's his prey and antagonist that i'm interested in, and somehow I doubt anyone can match Mr Hauer. Edit: I wish someone would re-release/remaster (not desecrate) the video game with Clovis and company. Edited January 26, 2017 by Nonek Quite an experience to live in misery isn't it? That's what it is to be married with children.I've seen things you people can't even imagine. Pearly Kings glittering on the Elephant and Castle, Morris Men dancing 'til the last light of midsummer. I watched Druid fires burning in the ruins of Stonehenge, and Yorkshiremen gurning for prizes. All these things will be lost in time, like alopecia on a skinhead. Time for tiffin. Tea for the teapot!

Amentep Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Just occured to me, I don't think we put up the superbowl trailers, so here are two - Pirates of the Carribean: Dead Man's Chest Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2: I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, I was already at odds with the franchise from the very first film and it's only gone worse from there from what I've seen and heard. Can't say I'm enthusiastic at all about a new one, but then again it's not me the trailers (and the film, I guess) have to convince. What always makes me enthusiastic about a new Pirates film is a new Kermodian rant about it.

Blarghagh Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 I liked the first Pirates well enough, but the second and third are true guilty pleasures for me. They have a kind of longest saturday morning cartoon ever feel - a kind of sprawling chaotic saga about gods and monsters that I can't help but respect because of how completely and entirely it commits to its own insanity - they're never good but at least they never played it safe. In comparison, the fourth tried to dial it down and came out seeming much more dull and tired and I'm not confident this one's not going to play it even more safe based on looking EXACTLY like the stuff that came before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amentep Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Fourth film was based (however loosely) on a book (that pre-existed the PIRATES films) so I expected it to feel a bit different. But it was a nice change of pace from 2-3 which was essentially one incredibly overlong, really silly, swashbuckling film. Fifth film seems like trying to recapture the 1st film a bit. Not sure if that's good or bad. I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet?

algroth Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Ryan Gosling, Michael Fassbender, Rooney Mara and Natalie Portman all starring in a new film by Terrence Malick, with some extra Iggy Pop and Patti Smith for good measure... Why does this feel like it's a cynical cashgrab aimed to pander to *me* specifically? Either way they got me interested, I'll watch.
