    movies contain dumb shit for nerds like superheroes

    cinema is when sad white criminals talk about being sad and how doing crimes made them lonely

    Both The Irishman and The Snyder Cut are four hour long up their own asses exercises in public masturbation. No movie should be that long. Go re-watch Fury Road or something.

    As someone who typically just wants movies to be 90 minutes, I can't sign off on this opinion.

    I have a backlog of videogames which I can play. If I wanted a four hour long one-sided diatribe by a white guy I'd go on twitter and criticize Elon Musk.

    Why 90 minutes? I know the Synder cut is a ludicrous 4+ hours. I am fine with movies taking sometimes over 2 hours to tell their story. But there are movies that miss use the time like Revenge of the Fallen as it must feel like it's Ending at least 3 times yet it goes on

    I liked that one motion picture where the train dove at the camera. Scared us it did.

    Just today I noticed Hulu's splash page had a section labeled "90 Minute Movies." I felt very seen.

    I think 90 minutes is the ideal movie length, but I also loved Blade Runner 2049 and the LotR Extended Editions

    I don't know why but I could have sworn Godzilla vs Kong was supposed to be out on the 26th. Whoops.

    And my delivery food seems to be in a perpetual limbo.

    Great night this is shaping up to be.

    I'm bored with movies. We were promised feelies in like 1932, and so far all I've gotten is disappointment and lifetime bans from a number of local theaters.

    Space Sweepers
    - I think I almost prefer the front-loaded credits
    - seems to always be the case: after the disaster, we rush to build a bandaid.
    - mmm....ascension
    - I see even in the future tech glows blue
    - - I am so tired of blue tech
    - subtitles are playing a subtle game:
    - - [in English] *man speaks Korean*
    - - [in German] *woman speaks English*
    - *artificial gravity kicks in* ouch
    - this dude in the background gives some shifty vibes
    - - he speaks! and chastises the CEO
    - ah, that's why I know this voice: Trevor Belmont
    - "WARNING: IT'S COMING"
    - I do like the lack of the translation convention, at least to this point
    - something, something, call me Robo-Ishmael. That's weak
    - doubt it specifically influenced them, but there's some Titan A.E. vibes here; but mostly it just seems like general sci-fi
    - "You're confusing me with someone who gives a shit"
    - gee, I'm sure this "looks like a cute child; is actually a devastating weapon of mass destruction" thing won't come up again
    - uh-oh, Park's worried about a thief.
    - Jang dropping the cards in disbelief is amazing
    - flipping tables, smacking people with other people, powering through a taser and head-butting the other dude? Jang is great
    - aw, a cute child has apparently stowed away
    - - ...
    - *the crew turn from the monitor as one to stare at the bomb*
    - dudes, I don't think hitting the deck will do much
    - great, the criminals are calling the crime hotline
    - she magically restores the plant to life? That's a neat trick
    - yes, extort the terrorists for money. that will end well
    - "Is that a giraffe?"
    - can't read the other buttons, but one is labeled 'Bishop'
    - "it's a dinosaur, dummy"
    - she sure showed him
    - Uncle Tiger?
    - it's the police. I was wondering about that call Park made
    - well-handled, Jang.
    - "thrilling music"
    - *drunk slides down wall*
    - this situation is about 20 seconds from another thrilling action sequence
    - bunny-lady just stole Dorothy's hat. What kind of person takes a kid's hat?
    - and the situation has escalated
    - she has a force-field
    - Krypton waves break nanobots; hydrogen bombs create Krypton waves.
    - something seems very wrong with Sullivan
    - yeah, stop singing on the emergency channel
    - yuck, eating tomatoes
    - - yes, thank you Dorothy Kot-Nim
    - ah, Tiger Park is his full name. That makes more sense
    - Bubs explaining important backstory
    - - it doesn't seem surprising to me that Bubs is a girl? Is that meant to be surprising
    - - ah, Tae-Ho's wife and daughter were ... wait, no, he ... stole a dead woman's child. A death for which he was directly responsible. This might be slightly better than turning her over to the system, but ...
    - I feel that Bubs is about a hair from murdering some of these guys
    - Park is going to dismember this dude
    - Black Foxes?
    - "You punks wanna dance?"
    - I don't know about this DNA = morality supposition
    - Jang calmly explaining the difference between a suggestion and an order
    - I was going to make a note along the lines of "the problem with being indistinguishable from a human child is that she could be a child" ... but they said something about 'not picking up anything'. Of course, maybe the container was shielded; but once she's out, I feel any of them could have realized she was real pretty fast?
    - I feel there's a missed step in there, but otherwise I follow it
    - the military has showed up
    - Pierre trying to be heroic
    - Tiger to the rescue
    - don't suppose they'll find Su-Ni in this debris field
    - yeah, but she can talk to the nanobots, so this should be fine?
    - - they could even repair the ship?
    - took a lot out of her
    - let's see: Jang is 25, and been a fugitive since she was 19
    - - formed a pirate organization and attempted to assassinate Sullivan
    - Tae-Ho is 34; and been a fugitive since 31. I thought Bubs said he was 20 when he found Su-Ni?
    - *idly wonders how many slash-fics exist between Tae-Ho and Park on AO3*
    - that was a fun movie. *checks time* another 50 minutes? what
    - uh-oh, Jang's seen something
    - - EMP?
    - - BUBS! Is Kot-Nim ok?
    - Sullivan appearing in person? That's surprising
    - I wondered about that; I noticed some metal sounds but thought she might be biting her ring or something
    - might be a bad idea to drop charges
    - I'm reminded of a line from Lord Demon: "you have dwelled in palaces," I said to the fourth, "and you in gutters," to the sixth, "and something of both has stuck"
    - Bubs hasn't woken up yet ... ?
    - as a retail employee with an occasionally scarily good recollection of my customers, there is no way she remembers some dude from 3 years ago.
    - why is the laser gun talking?!
    - - I am not opposed to this
    - "exhilarating music"
    - - Bubs cutting loose
    - "my harpoon?!"
    - - *punches the ship*
    - Bubs can survive re-entry?
    - why is there always a countdown?
    - - Though interestingly, it says 27 minutes and there are about 29 minutes left.
    - well, you may not be able to stop the bomb from going off, but I feel you could try to change the trajectory so that Sullivan et al die instead...?
    - 5,132 km is quite specific
    - Camilla, out of uniform?
    - where's that graphene 'sharpest thing in the universe' axe you touted earlier?
    - - there we go
    - "get out now if you fear death. The rest of you, why not come fight?"
    - - *man nods sagely*
    - we've now moved into "heroic music"
    - well, I am surprised; good call, Sullivan
    - noo, Jang
    - of course she needs to be the one to kill Sullivan, so
    - Bubs!
    - down to the last minute, but we still have 17 minutes to go
    - I guess I wasn't super far off, but I didn't call them pulling that con
    - :(:(:(
    - whew. Genuinely worried about ... well, 3 of the 4 anyway.
    - - Jang thinks Bubs is a dude?
    - Bubs got her skin! yay
    - *Pierre leans on Jang* *she glares at him*
    - some wrap-up, but that's pretty much it

    Not a bad way to spend a couple hours. Quite enjoyed it!

    the barbian queen isn't a perfect movie, but it does feature the titular barbarian queen stabbing a dude in the head with a sword for saying a lady should smile more and melting a nerdy pervert with a vat of acid.

    also the plot hinges around hunks and sexy ladies coming together to murder a monarch.

    You know, I had zero desire to ever see Suicide Squad. I'm really not interested in any superhero movies at all anymore.

    But Suicide Squad 2? OK I'm down for that, yeah.

    Idris Elba, a depressed Polka-Dot Man, and a giant murderous starfish? This is so extremely my bullshit it's frightening.
