I've been trying to finish watching Transformers #3 for the past few days

Brian_O_Blivion — Tue, 13 Nov 2012 13:28:11 -0500

I simply can't refrain myself from stopping it every five minutes or so and thinking how completely shit it is. It is just so surreal and bad, Malkovich... what the fuck is going on there? Michael Bay's genius is that he makes the greatest comedies without trying to, I know he thinks he's funny but he's so far out of tune with what the audience genuinely finds amusing and what he does it's unbelievable.

I have a friend who took his wife to see this film who is into Shakespeare and insists on going to the Globe theatre and The Old Vic occasionally (she's is a Cambridge lit snob but she's funny too and gets away with it) and she didn't speak to him for the next day or two.

You can tell the cast are having a laugh while making it at least. John Turturro must have roped in his pal Frances McDormand saying "Go on, it'll be funny!"

Yet this is one of the highest grossing films of all time according to what I'm reading. Something isn't right with this world.

What are your 20 favorite films ever?

pro_metheus_fan — Fri, 07 Dec 2012 23:01:04 -0500

Another light hearted thread, try to list twenty films you have seen in your life that you like and have always stayed with you, these can include films you saw as a child. Remember this isn't a greatest movies list it is your favorite movie list, don't put up anything that is considered a masterpiece that you don't like, these don't even have to be films you have seen recently or in years, just what are or were your favorite films throughout your life.

Prometheus and the occult

Sethlover77 — Sat, 23 Feb 2013 12:12:40 -0500

The movie is the perfect example. Not only from its classical prometheus-light bearer- theme but with Gigers visions. Scott delivers much, though the movie has practical flaws, it is a nice demonstration or better illustration for the theme in our time. Technically perfect designed it delivers the occult key question: are we the gods now. Actually meaning god ( as christian believe is basically mono-theistic). Also meaning replacing Christ with alien believe.
Delivered through the faulty ancient astronaut ´theory´ whose mostly known writers had fraudulent motives ( von Däniken, Sitchin). Whatever, these ´theories´ are used as basic plot base because they fit for Hollywood reasons.
Giger´s Necronomicon and sexual visions are heavy stuff also, though I know he personally is more experienced with the occult. It´s a phenomenon that this gets mainstream now.

What interests me is, how many kids, stuffed with daily vampire/werewolf/CSI/ ancient alien BS, partly educated, actually are directly influenced in their critical thinking? Meaning they take this for real, posting on ATS or else, fascinated by UFO or Alien stories.

Not knowing this is no playground because this stuff happens and is dangerous ( abduction, implants, mind reading, going-through-walls, de/materialize, abuse etc etc ) This stuff has clear features of demonism as researched in phenomenology.

found this..interesting.

Are these people for real? Seriously, I'd really hate to grow up in times like these. I may sound like a grouch (I'm only 31 by the way), but I really think the next generation is going to be screwed up mongs like tossed out bank statements.

Concentrating on the last 3 or 4 years, I'm really running low on what to rent. I'll have seen all the more well known releases by now.

Engineer vs Predator

SilentGM — Mon, 04 Mar 2013 18:14:40 -0500

And so, after I saw this picture in google where is going on fight in between engineer from Prometheus and the Predator which we know from the games and movies I've got a question in my brains about it. They look so similar and I think maybe there's an untold story about them, which means aliens is not the only species what's in contact with the Engineers. I guess it would be interesting enough to see the movie where Engineers and Predators are also and see the story what lies behind of them - who's the creator of Predators and what's their purpose in the world of Engineers or there is another species what we still don't know but which are involved in this war in between Predators and Aliens and maybe even with Engineers by themselves. I readed some comments about it and it's no doubt that people want more of this stuff and I'am one of them for sure. Because I think movies about comics like superman and batman or about even Wolverine or Hulk is quite done their role on the world of movies but Aliens, Predators and Engineers is enough fresh thing so I quess there's alot what creators of them can make as suprise for those who are fans for Aliens and Predators.

Will we also see female engineers in the sequel?

bink — Fri, 04 Jan 2013 20:50:14 -0500

Boy, can you imagine how a female engineer would look like if the male engineers look like michaelangelo's david only 10 times more muscular?
I bet they'd look really incredibly unbelievably hot but at the same time also really intimidating for an earthly male. I guess it would be a hard time
to decide wether to pop a boner or to run like hell.
I bet they'd have awesome blonde hair and well-shaped juicy big breasts.

What do you think?
I also wonder what do they do? What is their job? Do they stay at home and keep the house? Do they cook and bake and wash?
Or are they also flying around in space ships?

Is the green goo officially Xeno DNA?

bink — Thu, 03 Jan 2013 18:38:04 -0500

People seem to believe this. And the whole mixing of the green + black goo in order to create a weapon also makes sense.

But if the green goo is Xeno DNA then there's a problem. Then how come without the green goo being involved and only by being exposed
to the black goo we also ended up with a xenomorph at the end? Then the green goo wouldn't even have been necessary at all.

What if the green goo isn't alien DNA but engineer DNA?

Or maybe the writers simply didn't think it all thru and it makes no sense. This is also possible after all this is fiction it's not real life.
Lindelof could have made a mistake while he was sitting on the toilet thinking about how to move on with the story. These are just
humans.

Trailers of 2012

Try and pick the 5 trailers or teasers this year that inspired you the most, or you watched the most or whatever. It's not the films you like the most - you don't even have to have seen the film yet - it's just the trailers that got you most pumped for the films, in order.

Weyland Onboard - Who knew?

fifield — Sat, 22 Sep 2012 03:37:50 -0400

Watching the deleted scenes, I noticed Janek commented on "him being awake."

And then also, in the theatrical cut, several crewmembers seem more than happy to help Mr. Weyland.

Is this because they knew, going onboard, he was the point of the mission? It seems a little unnatural, to me...

GENERATION P

travisofmediaego — Mon, 05 Nov 2012 02:13:08 -0500

You are invited to watch this rare example of a Russian
indie film, a brilliantly visual and dangerous film soon to invade cinemas…

GENERATION P, adapted from the internationally-lauded
bestseller by Victor Pelevin, is a rude and funny dispatch about Moscow, ground
zero to the money, terror, and image-driven paradigm which has replaced the
Cold War.

The story depicts the rise of Babylen Tatarsky through
Russia’s nascent advertising business, and his parallel initiation into the
ancient cult of Ishtar, queen of all that glitters in the film’s hallucinogenic
brave new world. We also meet Che Guevara, a fiery dragon with bad news about
TV, and a chauffeur with a marked resemblance to Putin, who is elected
president.

Generation P is a riddle, a farce, a romance about the
ecstasy of disintegration, and an obscene joke about the end of the world.

Surreal imagination... bizarre parallel realities.... wildly inventive... Yellow

rogerwhitaker659 — Tue, 04 Sep 2012 14:29:59 -0400

Yellow, Nick Cassavetes' new film that premieres at the 2012
Toronto International Film Festival, September 6-16 ( url: *edited by vodi* ) is fast turning out to be a must watch film at the festival this year.
Described as a wildly inventive and visually dazzling head trip by Piers
Handling, co-director of the festival, Yellow is a searing take on modern
society and the demands it makes on people. The film tells the story of Mary
Holmes, (Heather Wahlquist), a young substitute teacher who escapes from her
drudging everyday life by fantasizing bizarre parallel realities. We enter her
hallucinatory world, peopled with Busby Berkeley dancers, Cirque du Soleil,
Circus freaks, and human farm animals where nothing is quite what it seems.

“Yellow” isn’t a movie about redemption or triumph or cure, so if you’re
looking for that, you’ve probably come to the wrong place," says Nick
Cassavetes. " It’s just a story of how Mary deals with her everyday life.
Yeah, the bottom’s going to fall out, and probably soon, but that’s for another
story," he says.

"Film like Yellow aren't easy to make or finance. It's world premiere at
Toronto is a triumph of Independent cinema, ." ," says Manu Kumaran,
the producer of the film of Yellow.

Presented by Medient Yellow features Heather Wahlquist, Seinna Miller, Milaine
Griffith, Gena Rowlands, Lucy Punch, Ray Liota David Morse, Max Theoriot, Riley Keough, Daveigh Chase and Evan Suplee.
