Movie Thread

@MrsJCBrave picked that one no doubt.

 

Nah... JCB's a big Efron fan.

 

I mean he's not as bad as he was when he first started but idk that I'd say I'm his fan

 

Power Rangers always makes me think of this:

 

I just can't do digital purchases yet. Same with books, rather have the hard copy. I know Blu-Rays eventually won't matter but I love Criterion and I love having this hobby of collecting great films.

 

I have a huge book shelf stuffed to it's maximum with movies. I'd like to see my collection if I actually didn't care what the movie was.

 

"Arrival": good "what if?..." scenario where a story is still Hollywoodized enough to have a military which acts like deaf and narrow-minded retards but gives more attention to the question of communicating with ETs rather than handjobbing rednecks with a paranoid gun fetish- whom we now know are 48% of our population. Extra points for casting Amy Adams (trust me on this, kiddies: when you get older, the spectrum of hot chicks becomes broader and you will welcome that). A bit cerebral in it's central theme of how time is perceived. 8/10 for anyone who isn't a flag-humping nationalist baboon because they're gonna hate not being the hero of the story instead of a college linguistics professor.

 

Nah.

I respect myself too much to watch a Zac Efron movie.

Still pissed I wasted my time and money on Neighbors. That was the final straw for me when it comes to Efron. He and Rogen owe me for that one.

I like the Adam dude from Workaholics, but he's always going to play the same type of character... and I much prefer to watch him on Workaholics than anything else.

Has Efron ever been in a good movie? Just curious.

I used to like Aubrey Plaza, but I feel like she's just another sellout now taking on roles like this and in that other garbage Efron movie Bad Grandpa (no I didn't see it, I'm smarter than that).

 

Adam plays the exact opposite character when on Modern Family.

 

So much salt.

The movie was supposed to be thought-provoking but was really just straight forward. It was a solid movie and technically sound but that's it. Just like the director's last work, Sicario, it was a well-crafted film but was very hollow when it came to the narrative side.
