Saw Crimson Peak and it was cool. Really not that sp00ky of a movie, it's more just a thriller story with some spooks here and there. Also visually its really pretty. Only real complaint is that the chemistry between the characters felt a little lackluster at times, and that's kind of a disappointing flaw when it's basically willing to make its creepy stuff take second place next to the actual interaction and story regarding the cast. Nonetheless worth seeing.

also the shittest thing came up in the trailers:


It's a movie about santa being fucking satanic. Best movie.

Ain't Krumpus a real belief in some weird country like Germany though?

I haven't really watched any movies lately, but I am legally "downloading" some Disney films like Inside Out and Aladdin.

Oh that's right, there's some kid punishing demon thing in old german/dutch history.

Nonetheless the whole thing is quite literally spooky christmas toys trying to murder, which is all welcome to me.

OH! You're looking forward to this? I read your post as in "It's the SHITTIEST thing". Yeah, killer toys are cool I guess. Chucky scared my childhood, but recently in 2013 I've grown to love the Child's Play films.

Yeah shit is becoming a pretty complex term now, on top of "it's shit" vs "it's the shit" there's been a slow rise in shittest usage, which is basically the same as craziest/weirdest. Lotsa shit.

The reviews might end up pretty mixed but it just looks like a goofy ass concept that somehow got a budget, and it doesn't look like the movie is taking itself much more seriously than it sounds, which I like.
Also Chucky was a nightmare galore, I think for a lot of kids that was like the first time seeing the concept of "happy thing is actually evil" and that's definitely the worst kind of scary when you're a kid.

I quess you haven't seen this

I actually did but, c'mon, that movie kinda sucked. I liked it just because it was just so overly corny but I don't think that was their intention.

I just saw Tokyo Godfathers. A Japanese animation movie about three bums in Tokyo who find a baby in a trash. Follows a series of improbable events, misadventures and coincidences, both hilarious and touching. I still don't know how some scenes succeed to be funny and sad at the same time.

Anyway, now I definitely need to see more of Satoshi Kon's work.

Watched Jurassic World today. I watched it in the cinema but I felt meh towards it the first time around cause the high-heels thing annoyed me more than it should have.

Jurassic World was fuckin' awesome. I loved it!

I recently watched Aladdin with the family. Such a great film!

Jurassic World was like an HD remake, I came for t-rex action but I actually got more of a kick out of just seeing the whole thing reimagined with modern capabilities.

Myeh, I wasn't a fan of Claire and Owen to be honest, it was this sort of weird "can woman be in action scene?? can woman prove capable of man things??" theme mixed with a romance thing that felt shoehorned in even though there wasn't any need for it.

Like a problem a lot of female characters face now is that with the increased attention on female representation you keep getting these "strong independent woman" characters that spend most of their time just highlighting that that's their personality, with a ton of "normally a male would do this, but now I do it!!" and "you think women can't do this?? i can!" I get the intention, but by doing that you're actually just reinforcing the idea of gender roles.

It's completely not true that women need to "prove themselves" to be equal to male characters - it's just a matter of how you write them. Everyone liked Maleficent and it was because the character was just fucking cool and there was no shit about it, and when you present it like that, no one even stops to go "but wait, she's female!", you just go with it's flow which is ultimately the real goal of these characters: To make strong female leads not something unusual, but something common that we don't even really think about. By making your audience feel like your female lead is some strange, usual thing, you're kinda just reducing them to a plot twist or gimmicky element.

Completely agree with that. Most of the best female characters are simply great characters that happen to be women.

That would be the best!

AAAAAARHHH, Kylo Ren is in fact JAR JAR BINKS !

Nah Joka, I broke in Disney's studio, I even left a grafitti "Kilroy was here" somewhere, he is Luke, like Pirez said.

Ah, you've found the Bink Awakens parodies, yeah, they're pretty funny.

It is an abomination.

Err, I think you're looking into it too much? Never got that vibe at all, the ginger woman was just someone who did administrator stuff, running the park... it wasn't like a dainty woman, trying to keep up with a man in action scenes it was a park administrator keeping up with a ex-military-raptor-fucking-trainer who was more hands-on with the park instead of being behind-the-scenes. If anything, it's a good thing they had a female character running the whole park. It could have easily have been a male admin, as that would've been more stereotypical of a male character not wanting to be involved with the kids.

Also, wtf Maleficent was a steaming pile of horse shit.

The film wasn't the greatest, the teenage kid was an annoying brat and the raptors felt more of a threat than the indominus rex did. But fuck it, I'm a big fan of Jurassic park and the raptor team with Chris Pratt was awesome!

Recently watched Big Hero 6, it was okay. I think it would have been better off as just a Hiro and Baymax movie. The other heroes were underdeveloped.

You are quite right my friend, you are quite right.
