  1. Q Lazarus
  2. Removing grain is one thing, but why the hell would they erase the creases in her dress?
  3. Be the change you want to see (by making it hell yourself).
  4. Grits are incredibly good and versatile though. I mean I can see turning down biscuits and gravy, but who in their right mind (besides those with shellfish allergies) would turn down shrimp and grits?
  5. Biscuits and gravy can be good, but for how heavy it is there's usually something better to eat. Anyone who would eat biscuits and gravy over chicken and waffles has terrible taste.
  6. Last night I had a glass of Yellow Spot. It's damn good, very sweet honey notes with some sharp apple. Sort of mellows into spice that's hard for me to place but very nice all the same.
  7. They have the support from people in positions of power to make it near impossible. Even if Trump stole nuclear secrets and sold them to the Saudis, he faces a graver threat from his fast food heavy diet than he does prosecution by the US government.
  8. I'm trying to figure out how it would work without the animals and all I'm coming up with is just implying it via trophies the predator has while having had him moving up to hunting the French trappers by the start of the film. On the whole, I think that would have made a worse movie than the CGI animals and Naru still needs the encounter with the lion to make the story work. I'm less concerned with accuracy (especially in a movie featuring an intergalactic 18-year old trophy hunter) and more concerned with how the movie works, and it does despite the wonky archery or cgi animals.
  9. Don't get me wrong, I throughly enjoyed Prey despite the uncanny valley cgi animals, and unlike some of my fellow haters I think the animals were necessary for this story. Still, this is a videogame forum so nitpicking is to be expected. Willy's Wonderland is the movie for you then. Nic Cage vs evil animatronics.
  10. Choose your fighter: Man in a Bear Suit or Jack from David Lynch's What Did Jack Do? playing every single animal. They hired some Canadian cop to teach the cast iirc.
  11. Both of you are laughably wrong. THIS is how it should be done.
  12. Games are a completely different beast and there I think grain is just a distraction.
  13. I can see no film grain (fake or otherwise) specifically if trying to specifically do something sanitized or even a neo neorealism, but for the most part I think a light grain to mimic a polished 35mm just looks much better. But it is one of those things I don't notice until it's gone and one of the more minor things, like a shot or scene can still be great without grain while a bland scene with grain is still bland. The problem with shooting on actual film is that it's prohibitively expensive with the cost of film, so you don't see it nearly as often in the micro to mid budget films. It is what it is, but I think a grain overlays can be good enough or even fool someone into thinking it's film (can being operative). Rian Johnson got fooled by his cinematographer iirc.
  14. I used to prefer crisp and clean digital, but more and more I think the grain adds a texture to movies that you just don't notice until they're gone. When you get too clean you get into uncanny valley territory. The CGI animals were ridiculous, ngl.
  15. Then you'll love the newest Jurassic Park World.
  16. Hunter personally joined the raid and took a dump in Trump's pool.
  17. Man, seeing the meltdown over Trump getting raided by the feds is the funniest **** I've seen in years. Maybe if we aren't back on the good timeline, at least we're on the funny one? I've heard it claimed (obvious disclaimer here) that the pregnancy was 20-something weeks on so this would have been against the law before abortion got gutted in the US. Still, it's ****ed and should be a reminder not to trust technology to be private, especially social media.
  18. Now that you mention it, he does look like some of the guys with.... interesting opinions on the age of consent.
