I have zero problems with all the sequels and prequels. Bring em on. There's nothing new in the universe anyway.

I know...hence why John Cena is apologizing to China because he dared called Taiwan a country or some such nonsense. Also Di$ney/Marvel is getting cancelled there a bit as well for something lame...and Gal Gadot is in hot water because of comments about Israel/Palestine.

Rise/Fall/RiseThat community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.Comment

Hey now, every so often there is the films where literally nothing happens...no rises, no falls, the characters are just there staring at nothing and saying stuff that is supposed to sound profound and deep but really isn't. You know, the crap film students make/love but no one else does unless they want to sound cultured :^D"It's as if the Drumpf Administration is made up of the worst and unfunny parts of the Cleveland Browns, Washington Generals, and the alien Mon-Stars from Space Jam."

I love those films!!!Originally posted by Handyman View Post
The best way to evaluate art films for those who think they are a waste of time: if you think they are, then, for you, they are. Nobody's making you watch them.
"Ow My Balls!" is showing in 97% of theatres, television, and streams. Go see that. That way we are both happy.

I actually just watched the four Jean Rollin vampire movies and found them... not great. They are lionized as a high point of 60s French art cinema.Originally posted by Handyman View Post

I mean, at their best, aren't all vampire movies mostly about the boobs? Except maybe Interview With the Vampire which is about how all male Vampire's are homosexual?"It's as if the Drumpf Administration is made up of the worst and unfunny parts of the Cleveland Browns, Washington Generals, and the alien Mon-Stars from Space Jam."

The Songbirds book focuses on the young life of the Big Bad from the first set of books. It suffers from a complete lack of suspense that plagues almost all prequels.Originally posted by Handyman View Post
The Fantastic Beasts movies are based upon the character who wrote one of the textbooks used by the kids in Harry Potter’s era, and wraps itself in the events mentioned about Dumbledore’s younger days. There is a published book of FB, but it’s written as a textbook, from the couple pages I read at Barnes & Noble. While we know the outcome of the Dumbledore events, there’s no knowing if the Newt Scamander lead will finish the series missing an arm or something when he wins the final battle."The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command." George Orwell, 1984
"One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its Black Gates are guarded by more than just Orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep, and the Great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust, the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume." Boromir
