No, but go ahead and give it a shot.

Unfortunately infinite two minutes is like an hour and a half. On the bright side, infinite confirmed to not be all it's cracked up to be. I haven't seen One Cut of the Dead but it looks great.

Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes (2020) It's not really a one-take film as it claims so much as edited to appear that way, but semantics aside it is ****ing fantastic. Probably one of the best films I've seen this year.

The New Drinking Thread
The only thing I wouldn't drink neat is gin, because gin is awful on its own. I only like ice in mixed drinks with a substantial amount of non-alcoholic liquid, anything else is a waste of liquor.

I can't believe I got roped into seeing the sequel tbh. Maybe we should start believing?

I either haven't seen or don't remember seeing the original. I'll consider that a good thing.

Watch Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn (one title).

Thankfully, I have not watched a Disney film in years and have no desire to after seeing that. Outside of anime I haven't really watched animation much lately, but looking at some of the restorations of films and comparing that to the Disney blu-ray makes it clear that the official remaster/restoration of animation is probably going to be ****. Eh, I wouldn't say that. Sure, big budget American studio films have gone down the ****ter and probably won't come back. Top Gun: Maverick is boring US military propaganda whose "real planes" (and CGI they don't wanna talk about as much) can't save it from mediocrity, but there are tons of amazing films being made around the world. Maybe call up a Memory Beta wiki editor and see if they can do the job.

Intended or no, it seems like something they would at least try to correct. But I guess when the house of mouse is paying digital artists peanuts they don't have much reason to care about the quality.

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?

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.

Are you implying that ELEGANCE is a meme? Decidedly un-elegant.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Both of you are laughably wrong. THIS is how it should be done.

Games are a completely different beast and there I think grain is just a distraction.
