If we're talking about animated food, I think Crabby Patties look amazing.

Sekto Springs · #**272** 06-05-2012, 12:53 PM

I was specifically talking about CG, since you know... we were discussing Pixar.

Manco · #**273** 06-05-2012, 01:07 PM

Lovingly-rendered CG food, you say?

A reveal trailer for Wreck-It Ralph was released. I think it looks great and can't wait to see it.

AlexFili · #**276** 06-06-2012, 10:24 AM

Food in CG movies and games is always tough. Can't remember a videogame where food looked nice and edible.

Just got back from Men in Black 3. Good nostalgia factor and a pretty solid ending. Time travel is always fun to play around with.

Just saw Prometheus, I really loved it. They did ruin some stuff in the trailers, but the scenes still had an impact when I saw them in the movie.

Wings of Fire · #**278** 06-08-2012, 07:26 AM

I also watched Prometheus last night. You can parse it into two bits:

David and scenes focusing on him
The rest of the movie

The former was extremely good, the latter was sort of terrible.

Mr. Bungle · #**279** 06-08-2012, 07:31 AM

I have just seen Dazed and Confused. I enjoyed it.

I noticed on another forum, a lot of people didn't like it because they just couldn't get it. Seriously. Things that seemed plain as day to me just eluded them. I will agree that David is the best part of the movie, but I still loved the rest.

I watched À L'intérieur ("Inside"), a French horror movie. I sort of have mixed feelings about it. On the other hand, it's great, the lighting, the sound effects and the way some of the scenes are shot, it's all amazing, but then again, the plot is quite generic and the scene before the end is just terrible, I'll tell you why in a second.

It's basically a story of a young pregnant woman whose husband gets killed in a car accident and a while after that, a mysterious middle-aged woman appears on her apartment asking for help. The main character, Sarah, refuses to help and after that strange things start to happen and the movie turns into a VERY gory horror movie. I don't want to spoil anything about it because I do recommend you guys (especially Sekto, weren't you into gory movies?) to watch it.

Though if you have seen it, or just have no interest in seeing it, the reason why I think the scene near the end basically ruins most of the movie is that a cop who already DIED in the movie is all of the sudden alive again and now looks like a zombie with no eyes and he attacks Sarah by swinging a baton at her stomach and forcing her baby to come out sooner than planned. It's seriously fucking retarded, and the director said that the cop didn't actually die but he did get serious brain damage and got blinded by the antagonist so he didn't realize what he was doing, hence hitting Sarah on the stomach. Pretty fucking stupid.

Also, I found the actor who plays the antagonist (Béatrice Dalle) so fucking sexy and I don't even know why, it's probably the gap in her teeth, just something about that... She was damn good at her role too.

Nepsotic · #**282** 06-09-2012, 04:14 PM

Not my type... To be honest...

Film sounds good though.

OANST · #**283** 06-09-2012, 05:57 PM

Okay. Saw Prometheus. I really liked a lot of it. I also really hated a lot of it. For quite a while into the movie I couldn't understand why people would have a problem with it. That is until it got to the scene where Shaw acts like a fucking crybaby because her boyfriend mentioned creating life, and she can't have babies. It was sooooo obvious that it was a set up for her getting pregnant, and it was soooo forced that I just wanted to stand up and yell "boooo". Then it would get better for a while, and then get really fucking terrible again for a bit. A lot of the movie was so well written, acted, and directed that the really bad scenes just became that much more memorable. When Shaw asked the captain if he believes in nothing, and the music started to swell emotionally as he looked away pondering her question I just wanted to walk out.

Nepsotic · #**284** 06-09-2012, 06:16 PM

So hang on, if the writings good and the actings good, why are the bad parts bad? What is it about them?

Wings of Fire · #**285** 06-09-2012, 06:36 PM

The writing is not good. That movie has too many unanswered questions to even be remotely satisfying.

Also the parts where it suddenly turned into a horror movie and wanted to be Alien were 'This was cliche thirty years ago' bad. Everyone suddenly acted like a fucking retard at the first sign of danger, it was depressingly genre-standard.

But David, man. David.

Sekto Springs · #**286** 06-09-2012, 06:41 PM

Going to see a movie in theaters for me is an effort.
Prometheus sounds more and more like it's not worth that effort.

The Avengers sure as fuckin' hell wasn't.

The android characters in the Alien franchise have always fascinated me. I think they get better in each film. Also one clever uncliched bit I think was when the girl got on the medical machine and had the alien cut out. Not only does it WORK but she then is not infected! Ruddy miracle!

Saw a film on TV called The Accidental Husband. Was actually pretty funny.

**JayDee** · #**288** 06-10-2012, 03:24 AM

I've only just seen, OMFGDogs. It burns my eyes in the most satisfying way.

Alien 4 sucked balls. Is that the one you're talking about?

Sekto Springs · #**290** 06-10-2012, 09:29 AM

Alien 4 did not suck balls. People hate on it out of necessity.
Alien 3, however, did genuinely suck balls.

MeechMunchie · #**291** 06-10-2012, 09:35 AM

Alien ≥ Aliens > Alien: Resurrection > Alien 3.

I'm sure we've had this conversation before.

EDIT: Also, I prefer an image on its own, because I'm boring like that.

No it didn't? We're talking about the movie called Prometheus that everyone has been referring to as Prometheus in the thread largely based around films that were just released, such as Prometheus. What a coincidence! The Prometheus of myth was also told to shut the fuck up!

I still love all of them for different reasons but ohhhh boyyyy I am most certainly never watching Alien 3 again.

Sekto Springs · #**293** 06-10-2012, 11:17 AM

Alien 3 was just boring. The others all had something going for them, but that one was just a snorefest.

I remember reading a synopsis before actually watching it, and I thought "oh, the alien's born from a dog this time, that should be cool". Except it wasn't.

OANST · #**294** 06-10-2012, 11:35 AM

I hated 4 a lot more than 3. But maybe I'm just weird.

Wings of Fire · #**295** 06-10-2012, 11:35 AM

Don't forget the way it raped the Aliens ending.

Alien 3 and Terminator 3 make me so mad.

OANST · #**296** 06-10-2012, 11:49 AM

Oh, I watched a movie called Lo last night. It's an extremely low budget horror/comedy that was shot in three days about this guy who summons a demon named Lo to rescue his girlfriend who had been taken by another demon. It's not amazing, but it works really well for what it is, and I definitely enjoyed it.

Actually I think Alien Resurrection is only slightly below Aliens in terms of quality. It's miles away from the tripe that was Alien 3.
The spoilers bit of my last post was for Prometheus.

I actually enjoyed Terminator 3 a lot, and Salvation for that matter.

Sekto Springs · #**298** 06-10-2012, 04:20 PM

Watched The Human Centipede. I had never seen it until now, but I knew all about it.
If I could summarize the entire movie in one word; underwhelming.

After how much I heard about how "disturbing" it was and all of it's cult fame, I really expected something great.
Of course, it was another one of those overhyped piles of boring trash, like Paranormal Activity. Yeah, the idea of sewing people together ass-to-mouth is stupid and gross, but it failed to disturb me conceptually or otherwise. Not to mention that any doctor with an ounce of medical credibility, insane or not, would know that the experiment was doomed to fail for a variety of reasons.

To it's credit, there was some great cinematography, and Dieter Laser was perfectly cast as the creepy doctor. The ending was a bit unsatisfying, but after that set up, it's hard to imagine many other ways to end it.

Mr. Bungle · #**299** 06-10-2012, 04:30 PM

I think that's part of the reason it got so much talk. Not only was it disgusting, but it was awful and disgusting. And not in the cool, low-budget B movie way.

Sekto Springs · #**300** 06-10-2012, 04:57 PM

It wasn't disgusting though. If it was gratuitously, chuck-your-lunchy disgusting, then I would have loved it. It wasn't even that though. It was just boring.
