TV/Movies Megathread

[Eddie Teach]

Agree that DP> Armageddon

Only if it's a life sentence where you're forced to watch Armageddon in a loop a la Clockwork Orange. Then I'd take the injection.

Contrary to rumors you are not part of it's demographic trying to  appeal to.

I would think gays would have better taste in violence porn.

Did you not watch the Araki films of the 90's?

It was watchable early on.

[The Brain]

So next you're going to tell us that Volcano was WAY better than Dante's Peak.

(Have never seen either of these, or Deep Impact)

Dante's Peak was cool.  You could see the superiority of GM's trucks as they were the ones able to drive through laval.

Pre- or post-Vichy?

[Eddie Teach]

Season 4 of Arrested Development. Funny stuff.

[The Larch]

It also had a completely implausible premise.

No, not aliens.  The fact that South Africa would be allowed to be in charge of dealing with them.

Jealous of the one time in movie history that it's not the US the one country in the whole planet that gets invaded by aliens? 

[Phillip V]

I enjoyed Henry Cavill in The Tudors. Is he a good Superman?

[CountDeMoney]

Jealous of the one time in movie history that it's not the US the one country in the whole planet that gets invaded by aliens? 

No, just a complete lack of belief in the premise that the South African government would be allowed to deal with it by itself.
If a premise like that is going to be out there, it needs to be believable.  Hell, even the UN was involved in Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

If something like that happened in South Africa, it sure as shit wouldn't be South Africans running the show.

Man of Steel, is The Awesome.

DC has arrived at the movies, to compete with Marvel.

There are some things they deviated and the nerds of the world will complain, I liked what they did. Superman needs to have some balls and do what is needed for the greater good.

If it was a movie about driving through collaborationists it would be a much better film.

Yeah, I thought that kinda silly.  I was thinking, "Man, they really picked the wrong country to land in".  I more bothered by strange shift from pseudo-documentary to action film half way though.  It was kinda jarring.

So, I saw Man of Steel.  I thought it was really courageous to film the whole thing in black and white.

Man, episodes of the Venture brothers go way to fast.
