moviesMy download queue is ready and waiting…
Edit: before anyone gives me any shit about only 18 hours of uptime, I just did my monthly update and roboop, so gimme a break. This is a 14 year-old iMac, and my standard uptime is 30+ days before I run system updates and reboop.
It's just a jump to the right...
Alternate timeline.
I haven't been to see a movie in theaters in almost three decades. I might go see this.
Pros: Sound, projection, and seats are all better. Assigned seating is a godsend.
Cons: Prices, people on cell phones, prices, previews/ads push actual start to 20 + (d20 roll) minutes after the listed start, and prices.
Pros: Alamo Drafthouse has a strict no phone policy (they eject without refund) and no ads before the show. The only thing they show is kitschy stuff related to the movie. And for Spaceballs, that’s gonna be fun.
Unfortunately, they’ve updated how ordering works and it’s phone based now so people are using their phones during the movie :(
My sofa isn’t all ripped up, and the reclining backs work.
Thank you for listing all of the reasons why I will wait a month or two to download this onto my Plex server for free. it saves me the time of doing it myself.
I don’t care how good the movie is, I will wait to watch it in the comfort of my own home for free. Nothing, NOTHING could possibly drag me back into the nightmare of spending $25-$45 just to endure everyone else’s bullshit just to watch a movie. Nothing could possibly make it worth it.
Never again.
I even got a tattoo to mark the last film I saw in a theater 8 years ago: Ready Player One (not a great film, but I was drunk and stoned, so I enjoyed it)
Old-school 3D glasses. I thought it apropos
If you haven't, you should check out the Dirtyhippie encode of Ready Player One. 4k 90fps sbs. It's by far the most beautiful 3D experience I've had.
I appreciate any recommendation to improve my cinematic experience, however 3-D films give me a headache.
The tattoo is a symbolic nod to the enjoyable cinema-going experiences of yore, not an expression of enthusiasm for the 3D medium in particular. But, thank you, nonetheless.
That said, if you know of any fan edits of that film that can improve it in any way, please, do let me know.
I often describe that film as: for all of what it wasn’t, it quite nearly was
Honestly not a big fan of it myself since it's such a pain in the ass to see well. But I bought one of those VR headsets and then realized that swinging my arms constantly to stab people in Skyrim was way less fun in practice than I'd imagined it would be so I picked up a few movies.
Pretty much all the 3D things were disappointing even in a high res VR headset, but that RPO encode was shiny as fuck.
Well, I never wanted to know any of that, nor anything about this subject, yet… Quite subversively, I found all of that quite interesting to learn.
I feel a little weird saying this, but… Is there anything else that you’d like to share about the experience?
Its funny how he is wearing the green Dr Doom suit like RDJ.
“Rick Moranis Returns in Humorous Fashion”
I guess the editor was asleep that day
Pretty sure the film will be horrible but that they pulled off geting Moranis back is simply amazing.
I was sure the new Naked Gun would be terrible but I laughed my ass off. I'll give Spaceballs a chance.
That may be the best endorsement anyone could possibly give
Recent successes in revival movies and comedies, like The Naked Gun, make me hopeful.
It can be done, you just have to want to do the work.
I mean, it's all the same crew, including Mel Fucking Brooks. It's gonna be good.
I feel like Mel fucking Brooks may have less energy available at this point in his career to push his artistic vision through.
I feel like this movie is the cinematic equivalent of 90-year-old congresspeople giving us “greatest hits of ideas that played well decades ago”.
Go. Retire. You had a great career for a long time. Now find a smaller audience.
Brooks had very little to do with this sequel aside from reprising his role as Yogurt. He neither wrote nor directed.
What a reason for him to come back. You were sorely missed, sir.
Bob and Doug is a Canadian animated sitcom, which premiered on Global on April 19, 2009. The series is a revival of the SCTV sketch characters Bob and Doug McKenzie.

A short second season of "five secret episodes" has since aired in sporadic form. The show was originally planned for development by Fox in the United States.
I totally missed that
Same, and that's brutal because I fucking love Dave Thomas. He always killed as Scott Aukerman's dad on Comedy Bang! Bang!
I fucking love Dave Thomas
The Wendy's guy? 🤨
No, that's Dave Thomas. You're thinking of the former gridiron footballer for the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Yes. We love that man and his square-shaped meat patties
Take off, eh!
