I watched it recently and I thought it wasn't very funny. Very predictable.

Vlam 04-10-2016 12:26 PM

It is aimed at toddlers.

Varrok 04-10-2016 12:32 PM

Well... yeah. Maybe a little too much.

Laser 04-10-2016 12:37 PM

Toddlers? Hardly. More like 9-12 year olds. Toddlers wouldn't understand what the fuck is going on. I see Pixar films, and most Disney films, as Universal. Anyone of any age can enjoy them.

Yes but the film is all bright colours flying about the place so toddlers can enjoy it.

Vlam 04-11-2016 03:00 AM

I've been watching Dr. Katz.

Oddey 04-11-2016 11:21 AM

I recently watched Apocalypse Now. Then decided to watch it two more times, because I liked it so much.

My only excuse is that I was too sick to do much else.

C'mon son, you don't actually believe that do you? To say that Inside Out is for toddlers because it is brightly coloured and filled with animated action is a ridiculous thing to say.

Nepsotic 04-11-2016 01:53 PM

Not exclusively toddlers, but that's part of it. It's not saying anything new or interesting or even in a unique way, it's just another Disney film. I didn't think there was anything spectacular about it.

Tell me more about this.

MA 04-13-2016 11:34 AM

sorry, but Vlam has ran out of dialogue concerning Dr. Katz.

he'd just love to tell you about the fucking ARG though.

Nate 04-13-2016 08:45 PM

There's a Fucking ARG now? I hope there's a physical activity part of it as well!

EVP_Glukkon 04-13-2016 10:42 PM

I saw 'The Witch' with my Wife.

2/5. Typical family in remote location turning against each-other, elements of external threat going on. Should of been a 20min YouTube film.

Nepsotic 04-13-2016 11:26 PM

Yeah I watched that the other day. It had such a high rating and ended up being utter shit.

Alf Shall Rise 04-14-2016 02:21 AM

I saw The Invitation the other night with some friends.

I liked it up until it got to the end where it turned into a generic horror movie. I mean seriously, the rest of the movie was this weird, almost surreal ride of paranoia and grief that seemed like it was building up to something really interesting. Then it turns out that all of the suspicions that Will had during the movie were just 100% right and David planned on killing all of them for his stupid crazy cult.

Manco 04-25-2016 09:48 AM

Zootopia is a good movie, and having an entire theater to yourself to watch it is even better.

In a small cinema room?

Surely that makes wanking in there much less fun?

guess it depends on what you hope to get from the experience?

MeechMunchie 04-28-2016 01:57 PM

I think anyone who's been on this forum for more than a year didn't get any further than "Zoo-".

Crashpunk 04-29-2016 03:06 PM

Funny enough, the very first thing I thought of after seeing a Zootopia poster is. "Oh god. DeviantArt are going to have a field day."

Nate 10-25-2016 04:03 AM

I just saw this documentary.




It was a deeply, deeply surreal experience. It's about a New Zealander journalist who investigates the supposedly established world of competitive tickling, and comes to realise that it's a web of intrigue involving blackmail, death threats, and a massive pile of crazy.

Worth seeing if you get the chance.

FennecFyre 10-25-2016 08:33 AM

I saw Kubo and the Two Strings a while back. I was hesitant to see another Laika film after Coraline scarred me as a child, but I was hugely impressed. Beautiful visuals, beautiful music, and a surprisingly good story--it ended up being less about a generic quest and more about what it means to be human, both the good and the bad aspects. I managed to figure out one twist beforehand, but the other caught me by surprise. 8/10, would buy it when it comes out on DVD.

Nate 10-30-2016 01:39 AM

Yeah, Kubo was great. And I've been listening to the soundtrack on a loop.

Sybil Ant 10-30-2016 04:37 PM

I've been watching S3 of Black Mirror on Netflix and I'm just pretty in awe with how good it is, especially with the higher production value. I'll admit, I was stoned out of my mind when I watched episode two, so I can't decide if that ep was really as great as I thought at the time, but the guy's death at the end definitely stuck with me. That shit was pretty brutal.

Nepsotic 10-31-2016 12:00 PM

Shit, I loved the first two series', I'm going to have to catch up. Charlie Brooker is my bae. Wish he'd do some more work with Chris Morris, Nathan Barley was the shit.

Mr. Bungle 11-05-2016 07:58 PM

I watched the first episode of season three of Black Mirror. I, too, was quite stoned. It was as enjoyable as it was unsettling.

Sybil Ant 11-20-2016 01:10 AM

I finally finished the last two episodes of the season last night, and I really think it finished on a high note. The subtextuality and little bits thrown in to add depth are just incredible to me. For instance, the blonde lady from OitNB notes her accuracy is 88%, of course 88 being a representative number of the Nazi regime. The birds being set free in Heidekker's house, etc. It's all pretty cool. Also Doug Stamper.

Also, the bees, damn. That was one hell of a ride. Also Genghis Khan.

Shade667 11-21-2016 03:17 AM

Been catching up with a few films I missed over the last 2 years when I stopped watching TV completely. And since I never go to the movies I never saw any of them. Watched Zootopia (fantastic, probably in my top 3 disney films), Kung Fu Panda 3 (also fantastic), Deadpool and How to train your dragon 2. Ive had an enjoyable week.

Manco 01-07-2017 02:16 PM

Assassin’s Creed is a bad movie and nobody should go see it.

In other news, I’m halfway through a Star Wars Machete Order session (just finished watching Episode 2), and it’s pretty amazing how completely unnecessary Episode 1 is to the whole series.

Varrok 01-08-2017 12:46 AM

That's not a bad thing. Imagine having to watch Episode 1 to truly understand Star Wars.

Also, Episode 2 The Phantom Edit was so much better than the original E2. They cut a lot of nonsense.

Alf Shall Rise 01-10-2017 08:07 AM

I watched Punisher: War Zone with some friends the other night and I was too marveled by it to laugh at anything.

I quite enjoyed the fan edit of The Hobbit, maybe I’ll give some Star Wars fan edits a shot sometime. They can’t be any worse than the original Prequels, right?

I watched Arrival earlier; it’s a pretty interesting take on how the first contact with aliens could go. It felt pretty grounded to me, with how everyone is so on edge for possible attack and completely in the dark about how to even communicate with the aliens.

It was shorter than I expected, which was actually a pleasant surprise since it didn’t stretch the story out too thin and overstay its welcome. I think my only criticism would be for the ending: The tension as the different human factions broke off contact and prepared to attack worked very well, but the way in which the protagonist succeeds in understanding the aliens’ message and then defusing the situation comes across as a little too deus ex machina to me; I think I would have preferred the climax to have been rooted more in the efforts to translate and come to understand the aliens, which was an interesting process to watch. But I suppose that the ending wouldn’t have had so much emotional impact without its twist, so I can live with that.

Mistress of Oddworld 01-25-2017 05:05 PM

I don't think I've posted here in years, but anyway.

The new A Series of Unfortunate Events on Netflix is actually pretty damn good. It reminds me of the books a lot, whilst also making references/in-jokes to itself as a TV show. It's worth the watch if you enjoyed the books.

I've seen the edits first, and I actually considered EP2 at least a good movie afterwards (EP1 was hardly salvageable). Then I decided to check out the stuff they cut and I was like: Is this a joke?.

Mr. Bungle 01-31-2017 11:55 PM

I've been watching a semi-new Japanime called Girlish Number. It's a pretty funny satire of the production of a terrible anime and all the cynicism behind it. I want more shows like this.

Regional dialect girl is best girl.

Manco 02-01-2017 08:23 AM

That sounds quite like something I could enjoy, I’ll have to give it a look-see.

Phoetux 02-01-2017 12:01 PM

I've watched the anime Erased some weeks ago. It's short (13 episodes if I remember right) but its worth to watch.

And I finished to watch the 1st ep of the 7th season of TWD

I read the manga and I really enjoyed it but goddamn is it obvious who the killer is. It makes sense still and I'd prefer that over having a silly twist, but man that teacher is suspicious the second he's introduced. Really good though. It has a really sad atmosphere.
