@get_thatskrila@ChromeBarracuda Ridley’s prequels at least looked good and tried to do something new. I don’t remember a thing about Romulus except the offspring
@RealEmirHan The twist isn’t bad, it’s just not as compelling as the setup and premise. The crime is it cancels out the fun mythos, although in a vacuum it’s not terrible
@portalmedoo The majority of the film is very generic, but my goodness that hard cut during the BBQ ‘79 tape is one of the most uncomfortable scenes out there. The snuff film angle and tinted colour, the chanting voice, it is genuinely unsettling
@popupipapo@LudicrusCulture It sounds like you're highballing the budget of Dr Who and lowballing Derry. Are you thinking of Disney era Who? S9 had a much lower budget before Disney got involved. The BBC is/was under public broadcasting limitations that constrain the CGI budget. It's not comparable to HBO
@LudicrusCulture@popupipapo Perhaps, but the OP is trying to prove that CGI has improved over time. Whether thats true or not, comparing doctor who to an HBO show isn’t a very robust argument
While I HATE the poor ppl spectacle for the rich trope, it’s actually funny as hell to think of poor people locked inside mall art features doing Mr beast challenges
Did you know Gorillas have never killed anyone? Even in captivity, they protect kids that fall into their enclosures.
However, chimps in Africa run off with babies and eat them.
Why is this?
I didn’t feel anything during The Odyssey, but not because of Nolan. As the bedrock of the discipline of storytelling, it feels little more inspiring than 1+1=2. I praise the formula, but remain singularly in awe of the disciplines true pinnacle: The Gospels
