Space Voyager Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Oh my... "Something you can always keep with you in your bathtub, for pleasures of all kinds." Perverse. A child doll with a huge appendix would not be much worse (dramatising a bit). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silencer_pl Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 But that wouldn't make it a child's doll then Nonetheless it is still something extremely awkward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silencer_pl Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Titanic is an awful awful film. I really don't like ranting brit reviewers. (the only one I stand is Yachtzee in Zero Punctuation). On the other hand I quite hooked myself on the erfworld Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Titanic is an awful awful film. You know who are the only people that think the world owes them a round of applause? Fifteen-year-old girls and billionaire directors who own submarines. I rest my case. True that. Mark Kermode slated the film in a conversation in conversation with some studio big-wig and she pointed out "You know your problem? You're not a teenage girl." Every film has its target audience, and this one was for teenage girls and people who think that you can have a nice long chat when you're in freezing water whereas Jack wouldn't have been able to utter more than a couple of words before slipping beneath the surface (and I would have cheered). The whole Titanic story has been done so much better elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Avatar, officially for retards. I'm sure I've mentioned this before, but my brother and I both came out of the film and when I asked him what it reminded him of he said what I was thinking: Fern Gulley: The Last Rainforest. It is a slightly derivative film, yes, and aside from stunning visuals from beginning to end it's really not as good as the hype. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FullAuto Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Is it not, beat for beat, disturbingly close to Fern Gully? I'm terrified to find out what would happen if they were shown side-by-side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Robin Williams would win. Batty was awesome. Side by side, both films go like this: "Bad guys and one good-bad guy want to chop down trees for one reason or another. Who's this guy? Oh, he's a slightly dumb lead character who then gets transformed (shrunk in FG, using an avatar in Avatar) and then he's sort of like one of the good guys but not quite and messes up along the way. *Time passes* Now he is one of the good guys. Yay! He defeated the tree-haters!". The end. The biggest difference is that the evil spirit in Fern Gully is switched with a good tree-spirit in Avatar. Oh, and guns instead of industrial equipment of course. Plus I doubt FG had a budget you could buy small countries with. Mr Cameron loves the environment - I get that. It's worth saving. So why make the coolest bit in the film the bit where the tree gets blown up? I was supposed to be sad, but instead I was thinking "very impressive CGI - flames are hard to do".

FullAuto Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I was supposed to be sad, but instead I was thinking "very impressive CGI - flames are hard to do". LOL Technically excellent, but it just doesn't make a good film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I had a similar thought about the flames in the first Matrix film (the scene in which the lift gets blown up I think?) but then later learned that that was real flame and a CGI door. The good thing about The Matrix is that it is a good film for more than just the ground-breaking special effects and the bullet-time (which I'm sure you're about to tell me had already been done in foreign cinema - I know you).

FullAuto Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Not just the bullet time. The best thing about Avatar is this fan theory (under The True Nature of Eywa). You'll never ever hear me say "The best thing about x is this fan theory." ever again, so treasure it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azrael Strife Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 So how do you like my you ? I looked up quijote and it's not in the dictionary, so I made it an insult instead Don Quijote is the protagonist of probably the greatest spanish literary piece ever produced, it's also used as an adjetive for someone pursuing impossible goals but never giving up. Don Quijote de la Mancha was written by Cervantes. Tried to read it multiple times, at some point I'm bound to finish the first book! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Quixote was the first thing that sprang to mind, but I've not seen the Spanish spelling before - thanks! It also amuses me greatly that calling a FullAuto a Quijote actually made some sort of sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
