"You rest your case?" "Oh I'm sorry, I thought that was a figure of speech. I mean...case closed."

no. using your own imagination is basically replacing the artist, it's stupid. i guess there's stuff that you can't do in film, but where images, sound and the sense of experience matters (like pretty much all the time) books are quite inept. it's mostly the technical/cost issues that are the reasons for the common "oh, but you can't really compare a film to a book" book hipster retorts. films to books is like notation to actual, recorded musical performance. So you hate films, and really hate books. This is fucking funny.

Even when you watch 2001......on acid?!

Can I throw The Void and Sunshine into the mix? Err, people sometimes hate them.

Completely understandable.

After reading some of these posts I thought Annihilation would look awful but the effects were fantastic. Watmm talking bollocks, who knew? I was pleased they left out the tower/tunnel from the book and went with their own thing, and thought the beast and its cry was the best part of it.

Was raving with Orbital at the Paralympics too, legend.

The biggest surprise was the see it in 3D message, I didn't realise they were still persisting with it.
-
The special effects are still great, particularly in that scene with the inappropriate touching in the car.

I enjoy reading this thread and have a vague idea of what regular posters like and dislike. I can compare their tastes to my own and this has enabled me to watch decent films I may not have known about or otherwise seen. But Eugene shits on every film he's ever watched, it's utterly insane that he hasn't found a better use of his time.

You knew you were going to hate it before you even pressed play, why did you bother? Did you sit there throughout trying to find what you could come on here and whine about? What kind of a prick are you?

It's worth watching for the tennis match.

Anyone playing Fortnite?

Oh cool, good to hear. Reading the trilogy was a highlight of my year.

I have a deluded druggie mate who thinks he's Mark despite quitting a job as an electrician to enrol in college on a music making course. I don't have the heart to tell him he's Jez.

Lumpy?

yikes. i thought it was awful and pretty obvious that they were shoehorning what they believed made guardians of the galaxy "good" into the thor universe because the other ones were inexcusably boring Maybe I was just tired or something. I'm not saying it's a good movie or anything, but it's one of the better Marvel movies... To be honest though, I stopped paying attention during the last 30 minutes or so when the action got going. Let's apply this to all Marvel films then pack it in.

Might start a film thread where marvel films are banned. They're all the same.

Going to an Arnie fancy dress next weekend and I see that after I've already got my costume. Fuck sake.

If this answer is serious then I respect it.

Out of interest what films have brought you joy?
-
I think I made it about a minute into that and I'm going nowhere near the comments. Trump ain't going to do shit.

no. it's way worse than this.saw this just now and i agree. i really don't get the point of this kind of film-making/script-writing, mixing rape-burn-murder-abusive-husbands with the kind of constant wisecrackery of the latest thor film (is this how mcdonagh imagines people dealing with grief?) and heap of cheap contrivances to produce irony. felt kinda like fargo reenvisioned by an idiot with no taste and no inspiration. I'm not sure film is the art form for you, you seem to hate everything.

If you plug your ears and cover your eyes to avoid the audiovisual aspects it'll be the best film ever.
