I know some people here like Caddicarus, but fuck them: I think his humor is totally forced, and I can't enjoy his videos at all. They're quite bad. Also, he's got zero originality, a cheap rip-off of JonTron-like channels

I think he has some moments. Here and there. I mainly watched it because, you know...Oddworld and all.

Can someone tell me what is this Oddworld thing?

I would love to but I honestly have no idea.

Good. Nothing is more tedious than women with ideas.

Wow, that was deep..

Hahahaha Citizen's Siege hahahahahahaha

He definitely wasn't being harsh enough on MO

I agree, I really felt let down with MO. The story was great though. Almost made up for the game. Almost.

Spending as long as I do here, sometimes it's easy to forget that Oddworld has actual fans.

Then I'm sorry to be a sourpuss but you're all posting in the wrong forum, let alone the wrong thread.

I saw Days of Glory/Indigènes/بلديون, about the North African colonial troops enlisted to fight for the French in World War II. Everyone tried to stay optimistic, then they all died. Pretty much like the actual Second World War, then.

Oh, so I finished season one of Twin Peaks a few weeks ago. It was pretty great, and I definitely enjoyed it a lot, but felt a lot of confusion towards the culmination of the season. Think I need to watch it again, pretty sure I missed a couple things on my first viewing. Also don't get the "BEST SHOW EVER!" claims yet.

Oh, and the new Community season is awesome so far. The last episode even made me tear up a bit. Watch it!

Weirdest show ever, maybe. Not the best show ever. Also, there's something that you have to understand about the way David Lynch works. It's almost stream of consciousness. Most of the shit he throws at you will never be explained, and he doesn't look much further beyond "Man, this would be fun to shoot."

I didn't even find it all that weird other than that dream sequence. I expected a lot more surreal craziness, maybe that's why I was a bit disappointed. A bit, not a lot. It was a good drama and an interesting story but that's it really. I'll probably eat those words in a few months though, gonna watch it again soon. I at least thought the soundtrack and cinematography were amazing.

And how bad is season 2? Should I check it out or avoid entirely?

It's apparently worth it for the finale.

Saw the Rocky Horror Picture Show for the 4th or 5th time in an open-air cinema. It's an annual event, but this year the audience was less enthusiastic than the other 2 times I've been. I was the only guy dressed like a girl. Hardly anyone got up to dance to the Time Warp.

It was still a really great atmosphere. I talked to some random strangers about my costume, and had a few photos with some people. The film is always good fun, but everyone calling out "asshole" and "slut" whenever Brad introduces himself and Janet really adds something else. One of my friends and I had practiced lots of callouts, and we managed to remember most of them. There were a few satisfying moments where we got a decent laugh from the people around us.

Photos incoming ;)

If you weren't dressed as a bearded lady, I'll be disappointed.

I rocked some super-drag stubble, but I'm not going back to a full beard any time soon.

I have just seen 'Sightseers', directed by Ben Wheatley (who's currently filming the first 2 episodes of the next season of Doctor Who, for those of you who get off on such things). I was mainly interested because the pitch-black comedy of the story, essentially a love story of two people who go on a holiday to the country and inadvertently discover a mutual love of murder. And I'd loved Wheatley's latest film, 'A Field in England', though very different in tone and style.

It's virtually plotless, largely improvised, but still manages to feel coherent, with a definite character 'journey'. Which is fairly remarkable.

All I know about that film is that they go to the Lake District Pencil Museum, where I have also been.

I saw the third Madoka Magica film with a friend on Saturday. It was a one-off screening in Adelaide, so there were lots of horrible neckbeards and faggots. I tried not to make eye contact with any of them.

The movie was interesting. It had lots of the things that made the series good, but none of the things that made it great. The pacing was probably the worst thing about it. It spent way too long establishing the confusing setting without beginning to hint that anything weird was going on, let alone explaining it. The middle literally lasted 10 minutes. Most of the movie felt like it was spent on the ending, which consisted of about 6 really long sequences. I was really ready for it to end with Homura dying, but then a whole bunch of weird stuff that didn't totally make sense happened. And then I guess it kind of ended.

I was a bit underwhelmed. I enjoyed it, but it was clearly an afterthought to the series. I've already rewatched the series with my mum, but I doubt I'll ever be coming back to Rebellion.

I've been thinking about getting into Madoka, as some of my friends watched it.

I've watched the first Godfather movie. It was quite a good movie.

Then I watched Godfather Part 2. It was uninspiring and pointless.

Thankyou! I've never met anyone who didn't call it a masterpiece and then look down on me for disagreeing.

I believe it's mostly because of the great acting, well-written characters, and, for most of the time, nice directing, though for me those can never compensate a weak story.

It's good and even if you don't like it, it's literally five to six hours of your life.

Great director, great studio, great writer, great composer and great Japanese cast (Fairly good dub cast too).

that's fucking crazy, i watched The Godfather again just last night, which i hardly ever do because it's a pretty fucking long film. it's great, but i love the whole gangster/mafioso genre anyway. i haven't seen part 2 or 3 though.

you know the scene where the godfather is shot about 5 times on the car near the beginning? i could be wrong but i heard that scene didn't visually include fake bullet holes in the godfather as the guns were being fired (only afterwards if you look) because the people making the film were told it looked too realisitic. and this was the early 70's, so it may have been a little too close to home for some people. so they didn't include them until he falls off the car. which i find fucking crazy because there are a couple of other violent scenes that look pretty realistic, one in my memory being those people machine-gunned to death in bed. so there's a completely useless piece of movie trivia. if it's true.

i intend to watch the others.

I've been watching a fuckton of Trailer Park Boys. Best show ever.

I found that scene so unrealistic that it made me laugh. Vito bounced off almost everything before finally falling on the ground. I'm pretty sure that's not the normal behavior for someone shot five times

Don't get your hopes for the Godfather II too high. It's just more of the same, with absolutely nothing more. In a bad sense.

i know right? for some reason it was perfectly acceptable for actors to start fucking pinballing off the surroundings when they were dying, like a big finale. like you said, you don't do that shit if you're shot. your muscles contract and you shriek. it's not a feather duster.

i don't expect much from part 2 or 3, i've heard more criticism than praise.

E:
seen the outtakes? they're on Youtube somewhere.

also SwearNet if you don't already know of it.

Godfather II is a very, very different film from the first. Calling it more of the same......is it because some of the same characters are in it?

Anyway, the second is not as good as the first. Still a pretty good movie. The third is boring, and awful.

I watched This Is The End, that apocalypse comedy movie with Seth Rogen, James Franco etc. It was very stupid but enjoyable, I wish I had seen it in the movies, it's exactly the type of movie you'd watch with a few friends and laugh.

There was nothing about Michael in any part of the second movie that insinuated that he was a good person.

But that's like saying that Seinfeld doesn't work as a war epic. They never tried to be a war epic.

Maybe it would if they did that slap bass thing on a string orchestra.

Then explain it to me, what have they tried Godfather II to be.

A movie about a crime family.

Boring.
