    Honestly the only thing that is keeping something like that from happening is that these movies aren't making much money. Otherwise we would be looking at more Terminator, Die Hard, and beyond.

    I was naked on every single tinychat but I was always under a blanket. One time I forgot and got up and then everyone made fun of me when I came back.

  3. Morrissey replied to the thread TV Show The Sopranos (HBO).

    Of all the female characters on the show, she loves Chris more than any of the others love their spouses, which in itself is tragic when you consider how he treats her. When she realizes he has sentenced her to death, what is left? If she somehow fights her way out and goes to the FBI, she is going to probably face jail time because of how little evidence she was able to bring, and after that, she has to live an anonymous life, alone and with little hope of upward mobility. Meanwhile, her bowels don't work right and you just get a sense she's falling apart. The FBI over the course of two seasons completely destroys her for their own gain, and when they realize she's dead, they move on. At the same time, the people who were supposed to love her barely even mention her, minus Carmela's brief interest before Tony dangles the spec house in front of her. It is much more cruel than many of the show deaths.

    She knows that Chris gave her up. She never really wanted anything else than to be with him. She is putting up the most minimal, almost instinctual, resistance.

    She barely fights back being pulled out of the car and crawls on the ground. She has given up.

    What a disaster this whole thing has been, especially after showing off the returns of Gadot and The Rock.

  7. Morrissey replied to the thread TV Show The Sopranos (HBO).

    The Adriana situation shows how amoral the FBI is in their pursuit of the mob and really shows how she was abused by the people who claimed to be helping her. Informants have short lives on the Sopranos, but we don't generally feel that bad for them because they chose that life, while Adriana was mostly innocent except for indulging in her boyfriend's rising wealth, which she probably had a lot of suspicions about but didn't question. She's even working during half of the show, so she isn't in a situation like Carmela where she can just lounge back in luxury. By the time Adriana dies her body is failing her, she has no one left to connect with, and she knows what a longshot the plan is. It's almost like she is being put out of her misery.

    It is such an incredible experience to watch these people grow and age. The last one dealt with the first death and obviously the director died since then and you just have to look at that cloud overhead and think about what it means for you and your family and loved ones. The greatest thing Roger Ebert ever did was bring attention to the movies.

    Vanilla Ice is a local. I have seen him multiple times at bars.

    70 Up is coming out after all next year and if they just follow the formula that is going to be one of the best of 2026.

    As far as upcoming films to be excited about, I am more intrigued by what Avatar 3 is going to do than I was the previous two. There is also a Reichardt to come.

  15. Morrissey replied to the thread Entertainment Forum General Chat Thread.

    There is always a debate about that. When Killer of Sheep finally got a proper release, a lot of people called it one of the best films of 2007 even though it was filmed in 1978. We aren't talking about that dramatic of a time jump, though. It doesn't make much sense to call a film that didn't come out in America in 2024 a 2024 film. It is usually reserved for foreign films, but there are some English-language examples. You could call The Life of Chuck a 2024 movie if you wanted to because of festivals, but everyone recognizes it as a 2025 film and it will appear on best or worst of 2025 lists. Since someone brought up that awful awards show, both The Hurt Locker and Crash would be in the "wrong" year if we used a different criteria.

    Yes, which is why French critics named it the best film of 2024. Their number two film of 2024 was May December, which came out in the United States in 2023.

  17. Morrissey replied to the thread Entertainment Forum General Chat Thread.

    So? That has never been the criteria that people use to determine film year. Film year is when it is released domestically.

    They are 2025 films.

  20. Morrissey replied to the thread Movie One Battle After Another (Paul Thomas Anderson, September 26, 2025).

    Magnolia is a straight-up actors' showcase. Still closeups, just letting them deliver. Moore and Cruise are breathtaking.

    I have not seen much but Misercordia, The Grand Tour, and Sinners would be my top three.

    Eddington is better than Misercordia?

    Who is better, Paul Thomas Anderson or Paul W.S. Anderson?

    I don't believe that one for a second.

    A lot of bad movies have some really good songs.

    That whole late 90's-early 2000's Sundance era is pretty embarrassing, but I am ashamed how much I loved Little Miss Sunshine back then. It isn't a particularly bad movie, but it is so cynically constructed to hit those emotional beats people were looking for back then.

    Loading up the hard drive for a three-night spa stay. Eddington, I Know What You Did Last Summer, The Materialists, Warfare, Opus, and Highest 2 Lowest. Anything else come out recently on VOD that I need to add?

    I doubt it is as funny as the original Anaconda.

    As evil as Garden State was, the central conflict in Wish I was Here was that Braff was so desperate to keep his kids from the horrors of public school that he home schools them after the grandfather stops paying for private school.

  32. Morrissey replied to the thread TV Show Bojack Horseman (Netflix).

    There is so much beauty and pain in this show. Funny that cartoon dogs and cats have more depth than so many shows with human closeups.

  33. Morrissey replied to the thread In Memoriam.

    DeNiro was trending on Twitter last night because of his Trump comments, but any time he or anyone in Redford's general age pops up you fear for the worst. I should have seen The Sting a long time ago but Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid is so electric and alive. An all-timer ending, too.

    I just assumed this was a streaming movie.
