What'll really get your goat then is when you realize than Anna moves and acts pretty much the same as Rapunzel from Tangled. Disney Animation has a pretty specific type "perky" type they like to use for their female leads. Even a lot of secondary leads end up being the same, such as "Honey Lemon" from Big Hero 6.

I'd reverse it. JP3 is a stupid fun monster flick. JP2 is pretentious and its lead characters make the villains look good. Everything bad in that movie happens because Goldblum and his team are self-righteous pricks.

Unless you are obsessed with dinosaurs, you haven't missed much. And I'm a fanboy saying that.

Let's just say that if there's such a thing as hell, I'm sure clowns are going to a specific level.

Even though I'll eat up anything Jurassic because as a dinosaur fanboy I'm starved for even mediocre dinotainment, I can't help but feel that their viral advertising campaign is miles more interesting than the movie will be: http://www.dinosaurprotectiongroup.com/

That's what I said, nostalgia. Etched in memory isn't a sign of quality - I had root canal sans anaesthetic as a kid, that's etched in my memory too. But yeah, I too fondly remembered being terrified by Tim Curry as a kid. But that's also all I remembered fondly. Having rewatched it in preparation for the new version, my fond memories disappeared. A classic is a film that endures, that holds up. For the old IT miniseries, only memories hold up. The miniseries itself is dreadful. It's poorly filmed, directed, lit, recorded, acted, paced, written. It's a boring, confusing mess with terrible characters, bad child actors and worse adult actors. If it wasn't for Tim Curry, who honestly isn't playing the character so much as he's just being Tim Curry in makeup, nobody would remember it more fondly than an exceptionally bad episode of Goosebumps. And even then, Tim Curry's Pennywise didn't make clowns frightening. I was afraid of clowns way before - in fact, I find real clowns more frightening than Pennywise. Nobody is scared of clowns because of Pennywise, people are scared of Pennywise because of clowns. Children HATE clowns, with their corpse paint, screaming bloody red mouths and creepy obsession with attracting children. Stephen King himself made Pennywise a clown because they are already freaking monsters, and even described Pennywise as looking like Howdy Doody's Clarabell and Bozo the Clown because he observed that nearly all children were frightened when they appeared on TV. The original miniseries wasn't memorable because it made clowns scary, it was memorable because it opened your eyes to the truth. And no, none if this is exaggerated. Anyone who chooses to be a clown is a psychotic sociopath by very definition and should probably be on some government watch list, despite their own insistence that it's an artform. Serial killer John Wayne Gacy also said he was an artist. And guess what? He was also a clown! I hate clowns.

Wiki says the GoG company "GOG Sp.z.o.o." (LLC in Polish) is a subsidiary of CD Projekt, so that sounds like CD Projekt is the parent company? "Red" is just a division of CD Projekt, they're the same company.

Had to google what they had to do with GOG. Had no idea.

That trailer felt like a run of the mill MCU movie, like Iron Man 2 or something. I like MCU movies, but that is NOT what I want from Star Wars.

That's unrealistic, a maga chud wouldn't be talking to a girl, let alone have one in his home.He's a Trump supporter so that's most propably his wife. You confused him with Bernie supporter. Impossible. She disagreed and has no bruises.

Sometimes in cruel and unneccesary ways. Can't understand this from any viewpoint but nostalgia. The original is terrible other than the fact Tim Curry is entertaining IMO.

Yeah, that movie had all the ingredients to be Coen brothers style amazing, but it just... didn't work.

There's a Big Bang spinoff?

I believe it's been used for promotions. Halloween Whopper, Darth Vader Burger. Stuff like that. It's just food dye. Either way it looks incredibly unappetizing, just like that black ice cream though at least that's not just dye.

That is a perspective I can understand. Usually, I chomp at the bits when people complain that anything that has a woman or ethnic minority in it must be getting liked because of the dreaded Ess Jay Doubyas and their weirding ways. But in the case of Get Out, a film that goes out of its way to make fun of white people who would "vote for Obama a third time if they could", the film itself almost invites that scrutiny. (Also, the fact that I'm usually the one getting accused of being an SJW is probably what made me respond a bit more irritated to the idea that I'm the racist now, so my apologies for that.) And for the record, I wouldn't say Get Out it holds up to Mad Max: Fury Road. Which, incidentally, is a good film to hold up as an example as to why we need practical and animated effects to be divided like I said. Side note, can't stop thinking about these things now:

As a Horde player who recently moved to Argent Dawn, I can confirm that to be 100% accurate.

Sadly, the Academy is pretty set in its ways. Animation itself has only been a category since 2001 and it's the awards redheaded stepchild as demonstrated by The Boss Baby being nominated over Mary and the Witch's Flower, Captain Underpants or even The LEGO Batman Movie. But then, it's been a pretty poor year for animation. Not like last year, when I really wanted Your Name to win but I couldn't decide what film to kick off the list. But this year has mostly been worse than last year's B-listers.

That I get, but if a Big Mac had the best tomato then nominate the tomato, not the Big Mac. This Big Mac was nominated for best wholesome meal among other things. Transformers has been nominated for best effects*, hey that's good. But clearly it shouldn't be nominated for best picture. That's about as far as this analogy will stretch, though. *side note, for the love of god AMPAS please start differentiating between practical effects and digital effects, half the vfx nominees belong more in the animation category nowadays.

Okay, that's your opinion and that's fair, but I think that seriously devalues the Oscars. Your approach to it makes the prize absolutely worthless. Devoid of any and all merit whatsoever. If I agreed with you, this conversation would not have happened because I would not have cared. Especially in a day and age where we have Rotten Tomatoes at our fingertips at any time which does a better job at measuring 'trajectory'. The Oscars are supposed to be the higher standard, experts of craft judging their peers. It's not about showing what they like, it's about rewarding true excellence, innovation and craftmanship. I shouldn't have to give a flying **** about it aggregating well from other awards and newspaper critics. They're not simple reviewers, they're film professionals from an organisation dedicated to advancing the art and science of film. There's what I want from the Oscars. Having seen Get Out, which was perfectly 'just fine', then that is seriously just wrong to me even if it isn't to you. I don't want them to award a Michelin Star to a McDonalds because that Big Mac really hit the spot, and if they do I'm surely going to question their reasons instead of going 'well, I guess plenty of other people liked Big Macs before'.

World of WarCraft.

That's because you haven't seen it.

Not much of a parallel then?

Eh, I'd say that not likeable isn't the same as not memorable or interesting.

My mind still boggles at the love for Rogue One. That was two hours of borefest with 10 minutes of good action at the end. I cannot for the life of me remember any character's name of personality other than Alan Tudyk bot. I even watched it a second time hoping it just didn't click with me, but I hated it MORE. I didn't care about anyone or anything in that film.

Yeah, Fede Alvarez is a horror director worth keeping an eye on despite his hum-drum Evil Dead remake. Don't Breathe had me on the edge of my seat. It also ruined turkey basters for me forever...
