I was trying to be funny. There was no need for your language. Why can’t we have a decent conversation?
A middle-aged nerd from the UK. I like films and write about them, sometimes for Film Stories or my blog.
Have a great day.

Calm down please, this isn’t Reddit. Thank you.
Nice teaser, gets me interested without spoiling any plot.
I wonder if that car is real or all CGI?

Reminds me of those LED screens on bus shelters in the hottest part of summer. You can hear the fans inside screaming away trying to keep everything cool.
Yeah, I’m not too impressed with this current Disney business model of “let’s remake our back catalogue in live action!”
The live action Moana coming next year is only ten years after the animated original. Is it going to reach a point where there will be a choice at the cinema?
“Do you want to see Toy Story 6?” “Animated or the live action?”
😆
Don’t quite understand this attitude of “I don’t care if my children and grandchildren live in a shitty ecological disaster of a world, as long as I see infinite rolling hills of green outside my living room window!”
Why are people buying Romulus? 🤷🏻😆
He seems to be claiming it’s all the fault of DEI which has got worse with Obama and then Biden. So basically, it’s the fault of everyone in the tower who isn’t a white male?
A reporter asked him how can you be sure it’s DEI before the investigation has really begun? To which he replied, (paraphrasing) “I have common sense which many people don’t!”
Another Trump stooge on LBC was telling Ian Dale that there were reports that the helicopter pilot was possibly female with less than 500 hours of experience, and then said other reports are claiming the pilot was trans. Dale cut off the call.
Jesus Christ! It’s only week 2?
I loved original The Sims and lost a lot of time to it. However, I was frustrated that I couldn’t match the time like in real life.
Did anyone manage to get people to work before 10am!? The Sims took ages to get ready! 😂
I thought most of the studios, except Disney, had pretty much given up on the Superbowl because the cost was becoming prohibitive compared to the returns the films were making.
It’s like the San Diego Comic Con. The studios stopped previewing their films because the reaction was always fantastic but the crowd was the target audience. Not enough to make any noticeable change in the wider market.
Saying that, I’ll never forget the Superbowl trailer for the Matrix sequels. The awesome use of the music track Supermoves and the amazing action it teased.
Anyone that uses woke as a derogatory term can get fucked basically.
Spielberg later regretted making those changes to ET saying,
“That was a mistake,” Spielberg told a master class at the Time 100 Summit in New York City.
"I never should have done that.
"E.T. is a product of its era. No film should be revised based on the lenses we now are, either voluntarily, or being forced to peer through.
Also, in another example, Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale have the rights to Back to the Future. Universal need there approval for any sequels/remakes which they will strongly refuse. They’ve also left the legal rights to their estates. So even once they’ve passed on, the chance of anymore films are basically zero.
I just think the joke ratio is a lot higher and they’re all excellent jokes as well. Plus there’s tons of little moments which you can pick up on multiple viewings.
Shaun is still a great film, I just think they got better with Fuzz.
About two years ago, I watched all six, as there were then, over the course of a couple of weeks. For me, the second film stands out as being the weakest.
I think I need to watch Dead Reckoning (formerly part 1) again as I was slightly disappointed seeing that.
Bending the rules a bit here. I know it is not a true sequel, but it’s part of a trilogy. Hot Fuzz is better than Shaun of the Dead. Also, except for the second film, I think the Mission Impossible series just gets better with every entry.
That one is an urban myth.
A farmhouse in the middle of one of Britain’s busiest motorways has been made the subject of a documentary. Stott Hall Farm, one of West Yorkshire’s best known sights, appears cut off by the M62 motorway, with east- and westbound lanes dividing around the building.
For 10 years, it has been home to farmer Paul Thorp, who has grown used to the constant hum of the traffic. Danny Lomax, 28, a student filmmaker, said: ‘I wanted to find what it was like for someone to live in the middle of one of the country’s busiest roads, while living the life of a hill farmer.’
The documentary also debunks the urban myth that the motorway curves around the farmhouse because a former owner refused to move. ‘It was the landscape that meant the motorway couldn’t be built right through and had to be built around it,’ said Lomax.
Aliens can be quite divisive. Some people like the very clean digital look but I prefer the Blu-ray release which has quite a lot of natural grain too it. But if you compare editions, you’ll see that over the years, with each release, Cameron has changed the look of the film in regards to colours.
In an ideal world, studios, with directors assistance and approval, would scan the camera negative and leave it at that with no tinkering afterwards. 😄
In regards to Cameron’s other films, they’ve all had various use of AI but Titanic and The Abyss come out really well and I believe The Terminator hasn’t done too badly either.
I would just add that if you feel inclined, always research what 4K you’d like to buy next by reading reviews and using sites like https://caps-a-holic.com/ to compare old blurays to the new 4K editions.
It’s rare but just because it’s a 4K release, that’s not always a guarantee that it will be better. Some filmmakers like to use the opportunity to change the way the film looks entirely. Also, some filmmakers are using AI to improve the picture quality (cough! James Cameron) and it doesn’t always come out the best. In other words, stay away from True Lies in 4K, it’s awful.
If done properly, older films can look wonderful, such as Top Gun, Back to the Future, and Who Framed Roger Rabbit? Yes, I own those. 😁
There’s too many issues with the image. For example, why does the brown coat have buttons when it looks like a poncho?
