TV/Movies Megathread

I always thought that any Warhammer 40k media adaptation should just take the Teutonic Knights from Alexander Nevsky and make them the good guys

I mean, I knew the helmet designs were based on it, but the taking-off-the-helmet shot is repeated in Conan's opening with Thulsa Doom, Thorgrim and Rexor.

Quick movie update:

Warfare: 6/10
Weapons: 9/10
Eddington: 8.5/10

Can't recommend Weapons enough.

So I guess Nicolas Cage is playing John Madden in the Madden biopic?

So the new superman.... It's.... Meh.....

A bit different to normal superman films. It's fun in that it feels like watching marvel film #35 without having watched the 34 before it. Except there aren't films before it.

I really don't get who Mr Terrific is or why the Green Lantern is weird. Or the elemental guy or other guys in prison. Or a lot. This messes with my head.

It's overall alright though. Nice not to get bogged down in origin stories for the umpteenth time and it has a proper comic book sense of frivolity.

Paul Thomas Anderson's new movie "One Battle After Another" is out, was able to catch and enjoy it.  Still digesting it, but if anyone is a fan of his oeuvre this should hit the mark.  Feels relevant and timely, probably feels closer to home if you're American, especially in the South West.  It's the wildest conspiracies of the Left and the Right with car chases and fantastic cinematography.
