adsii1970 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 I love the original Dune movie. I am afraid of what a remake will look like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dientus Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Release date is Aug 8 on HBO Max and theaters - Suicide Squad Supposed to be a reboot, which to me is odd rebooting a movie that technically has a sequel, and the original movie is only what, 4 years old? But, could be good... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like a lot of the look of it, but hate some of it rather a lot—even though a friend of mine is actually in it: He's the smallish dude on the left He's an anesthesiologist, big game hunter, and scotch aficionado (the order there might be off ) I hate the thopters in the old movie. Hate all the awful non-knife weapon things. The trailer for the new one makes the thopters also look bad in a different way (they are ornithopters, not insectithopters). Unsure how the rest will work out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shpaget Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Foundation is coming in about two months. Perhaps it's time to start rereading the Robot and Empire series? Hopefully they do Asimov justice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kerbiloid Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Nothing genocides monsters as effectively as lack of budget. Outpost, s03e03 They just gathered all Lu-Qiri in another dimension and made them dead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerbiloid Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 (edited) The Swarm, 2020 warns us of the dangers from the edible grasshoppers farming (herding?). Don't let them to suck your blood, the consequences for the world will be devastating. Also it looks explaining the origin of Lu-Qiri in the The Outpost. Due to the Blackbloods' black blood magical activity, those three meter high grashopper-like beasts are probably their former edible grasshoppers occasionally tasting the black blood. Would not be surprising, after the plaguelings and the collipsum flies nature. Edited August 8, 2021 by kerbiloid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kerbiloid Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 (edited) The new LOTR. Or the pre-LOTR. They move the prequel filming from New Zealand to England for other 4 seasons. (Because no volcanos for Orodruin are needed anymore?) The New Zealanders are sad, but actually the Brits should start worrying. The book prequel ended with an island sinking and the continent cracking. Edited August 14, 2021 by kerbiloid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more than just an art-style. Which is why I was going to argue that the whole thing is a bad idea from the start, despite some precedent: Can't entrust anime with Jedi powers.

kerbiloid Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 00:20 - Why does he pull the lightsaber?! *** After the flying lightchoppers all previous SW maintainers should shave their heads and pass away to a jungle monastery, because they know nothing in cinema. It was so simple and so magnificent, and noone did it for tens of episodes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
