Mechner about Inception, the film I listed as my #2, in response to someone inquiring about people's "unpopular benign" opinions.Norbert wrote:Me talking about my favorite films for 20 minutes: [...]
I recently re-watched it with a buddy.
He too had already seen it, but we re-watched it so I could pause the film now and then to explain things a bit more.
He had some clever questions too; always new things to think about.
Re: The Movie Thread
Interesting to watch 'regular' people's reviews on YouTube of the new Star Trek: Discovery TV series.
Plus all comments about the new The Orville TV series.
Makes it extra interesting, that those two very different Star Trek themed TV shows launched almost at the same time.

Re: The Movie Thread
I'm enjoying both shows. I kind of expected more of Discovery, but it shows promise. I just hope they take it in a good direction. It would be awesome if the show is about the start of Section 31 agency.

The CGI for Thanos (also: "but this") is incredible, by the way.
Especially the eyes and areas around them.
It's almost as if they filmed an actual person's eyes and digitally integrated that footage into the face.
The subtle facial movements; they show off the character for several seconds in a row without issue.
I see some Jack Nicholson in his face.

I'm most likely echoing the Wikipedia critical response but here is my personal opinion on the movie:

Apologies on the late reply. Anyway I saw it on the first weekend, with a full house despite being a night show. Distractions also include people accidentally kicking the chair from behind and a lot of chatter - there is a lot of stuff and details, probably as Marvel expected the viewer to have seen all 18 movies before this (as mentioned by a critic Avengers:_Infinity_War#Critical_response)Norbert wrote: ↑April 27th, 2018, 11:32 am Anyway, did you see Avengers: Infinity War?
From what I've heard it focuses less on story and more on bringing the viewer a roller coaster ride.
I'll definitely be checking it out myself, although not in a cinema.
Among other things, I actually prefer headphones over the audio at the movie theater.
Plus the screen distance, the distractions (e.g. emergency lights, people), etc.

Re: The Movie Thread
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the film.

Old (2015), but still fun.
Re: The Movie Thread
I just finished watching the first season of Cobra Kai, a TV-series based on The Karate Kid film series.
With both Daniel LaRusso (actor Ralph Macchio) and Johnny Lawrence (actor William Zabka) back in the game.
This TV-series is surprisingly good.
And I'm not the only one to think so: currently 9.0 at IMDb, and 100% and 96% at Rotten Tomatoes...
