saw that Birdman thingy, and it was awesome. great camerawork, but you'll be hearing that a lot now.

The Portal

 

A short entertaining film (only ~12 mins long). I enjoyed it, recommend it, and wish it was longer.

 

^^ I saw that trailer a while back..looks funny and I like Tahmoh. Haven't registered at the site yet tho.

Having grown up with a sister who was obsessed with 21 Jump Street when it was on tv, I finally got around to skimming through the movie. While it had some amusing bits - especially the "Tom Hansen and Doug Penhall" reveal, I found most of it rather tiresome. Basically trying to stretch the whole joke about them not looking like high school kids into an excuse for stupid behaviour more then funny.

 

I guess I can only take so much of stupid as funny, and an entire film hinging on that doesn't really work for me.

Hm. Thanks.

At one time the Riftworld Chronicles site was a portal to see the Portal, but I guess now it's more for new stuff based on Portal. Or something. Looks like it's up on YT as well now.

Eraserhead (1977)

Is this movie supposed to be disturbing? thought-provoking? All i was left doing was either almost screaming at the screen "Do something!!!", laugh at it or just having a frowned face. Great special effects and cinematography though.

It wasn't well received when it came out; it got a cult following that has risen in stature over the years. Whether its disturbing or not, I think is up to the viewer (it was as I recall, originally inspired by Franz Kafka's Metamorphisis and other absurdist/surrealist works).

For those people who were worried the idea of "hybrid dinosaurs" would turn Jurassic Park silly, the design of the hybrid dinosaur has leaked and it's... another dinosaur, pretty much. Now we only have to worry about domesticated raptors turning it silly.

Wow, sorry for the double post but I think this deserves a bump.

 

Disney has reportedly tapped in Chris Pratt, who played Space Indiana Jones in the most succesful movie of the year, to take the the part of Regular Indiana Jones in their latest bid to get that franchise off the ground again.

Could Hollywood please wait  until i'm dead or with Alzheimer before they start ruining the franchises I grew up with?

If you didn't think Indiana Jones was already a bit ruined by Crystal Skull, I don't know what to think.

Why not just make movies in the similar vein rather than rebooting things.

Plus, the last report said they were going with Bradley Cooper. I find this a lot more fitting.

Double plus, they've ditched Shia Labeouf.  I think the intention with Crystal Skull was to groom a new Indy, but they chose an insane person for the part.  

 

I still think River Phoenix is the only true heir to the Indy throne.  RIP.

I half wonder if they couldn't have run it with Sean Patrick Flanery now..

 

He did a pretty good showing as Young Indy in the Chronicles, and with his current age now, you could probably work nicely to do some Pre-Raiders of the Ark stories.. Unless they're doing it as a total reboot.

Something I've always wondered too - but then spin offs tend to do very badly.. as do reboots I suppose, but they have a somewhat better track record.

Yeah, any chance of Ghostbusters 3 died with Harold Ramis.

This just screams "oooh, we are going to tap into the current generation with this"-focusgrouping.

Actually I think the Ghostbusters cast is fantastic.  Every one of those girls is hilarious, and I can see them fitting into the roles perfectly.  I have high expectations.

The cast is good, I just don't like the idea of a Ghostbuters reboot or whatever it's supposed to be. I know why studios do it, I just wish they wouldn't.

 

I can imagine the cast being in a completely separate movie that shares themes with ghostbusters. And that's what I always advocate for, just because I see greater flexibility and don't have to worry that if it flops, it'll drag fond memories with it.

Hurlshot is 100% correct guys, the cast looks amazing and I'm confident they will deliver an entertaining experience 

Let's go fullout with this:

 

- Alien remake starring Alexander Skarsgaard

- Sex & City starring white men

 

...and so on, or is this proposition not in touch with the youth?
