  • BBC Buys High-Concept French Sci-Fi Series 'The Sentinels'

    Jump

  • This looks really cool, thanks for sharing!

    I wonder if subs/VO is available the series in other languages.

  • Patrick Muldoon Dead: 'Days Of Our Lives', 'Starship Troopers' Actor

    Jump

  • RIP

    Kind of crazy to think Starship Troopers was released almost 30 years ago, when Muldoon was 29.

  • IMDb now requires an account to read user reviews

    Jump

  • For more niche content, it's sometimes one of the few viable sources for reviews.

  • Apple TV teases new Israeli propaganda series, "Unconditional," from the producers of "Homeland"

  • Middle East Eye is comically inconsistent and downright hypocritical in their perspective/messaging on issues outside of Palestine/Israel.

  • There can (still) be only one: Highlander is 40

    Jump

  • I’m not going to argue that Highlander is a cinematic masterpiece. The critical response was mixed to harsh, and the film wasn’t a box office success either, grossing just $13 million against its $19 million production budget.

    I never knew it was box office failure when it was released.

    When the author listed the adjacent media, she forgot to include Highlander: The Search for Vengeance; the 2007 anime based on the Highlander.

    While I have pretty solid exposure to anime, I actually don't like the vast majority of anime. This is one of those anime experience that I would argue has crossover appeal. The art style isn't annoying, the characters and writing are relatively well done. It's actually a solid entry in the Highlander franchise.

  • I always get really happy nostalgia vibes when I watch Small Soldiers.

    It's not particularly good, but it gives me the feelz.

    Supernova could have a been a lot better, wasted opportunity IMO.

    Return to Silent Hill (2026) - A review (of sorts)

  • Shocking Dark (aka Terminator 2) (1989)

    Jump

  • Dull? What in the world!

    It is unbelievably good. The unique crossover (show me another movie that does Aliens X Terminator 2)! Horror sci-fi in venice!

  • Alien: Earth Season 2 Production to Begin

    Jump

  • I am big fan of the Alien franchise (I've even read a few of the novels), but I did not enjoy Alien: Earth at all. It felt more like a generic streaming action-sci-fi with Alien motifs.

    I think I gave up on episode 2, but I did try and watch the standalone episode (5?), I turned it off after 10 minutes, it had no tension or atmosphere.

  • Why Darren Aronofsky thought an AI-generated historical docudrama was a good idea

    Jump

  • I tend to be perhaps less anti-AI than most here (albeit I am probably even more distrustful of the large companies in this space), but just from watching the trailers, I found the AI generated scenes to be extremely distracting.

    The first association for me is some shitty YT video slop or scheme.

    I haven't watched it though and I am not going to watch it.

  • Bethesda could have made a Fallout movie or TV show a decade ago, but "credit to Todd Howard," they refused Hollywood's offers until they found "the right partner"

    Jump

  • I didn't like the series, mostly because it was very vanilla. I would have much preferred if it was based on A Boy and his Dog, many of the 80s Italian Mad Max clones (2019, After the Fall of New York), Neon City and even something like Turbo Kid.

    An arguement can be made that to make social commentary effective you need a bit more subtly.

  • Can't speak for the youtuber, but even though Iron Long is a short game, I felt like it had a lot of potential for expending it's lore. Some of the console entries hint to a lot of things going on.

  • but if you assume motivations of those who supported them are the same for all of them then you’re only going to antagonise those that were misled

    From my experience living in the US, that seems true.

    I traveled extensively (~15 states minimum) and I believe I had a broad exposure to local culture (from provincial "hoods" with difference ethnicities, very rich and "conservative" suburbs to more cosmopolitan experiences in NYC, Chicago, LA, SF).

    That being said, there is a limit to everything. At some point intent stops mattering and the outcome is what counts.

    My personal opinion (I may be wrong), is that US is a dead end. There won't be any any positive changes in the next 20-30 years minimum. The far right is committed to corruption, criminality and posturing around "freedoms" and "I support the law" and the centre-right voting public is too well off to rock the boat until it's too late.

  • I would argue it's not reductive to treat the current approach used to manage immigration in the US as almost comically stupid (not to mention being founded on mostly posturing and self-aggrandization "I support the law").

    Managing immigration is one thing, but allowing your country to become like russia with security forces beating and killing people under the alleged pretense of managing immigration is definitely a sign of maliciousness.

  • Children of Men had much stronger dystopian sci-fi motifs. It reminded me of Brazil for some reason. One Battle, After Another was more of a mass market feature. That being said, I watched it in the cinema and I enjoyed it. It was a good movie.

    I do think Children of Men (not to mention Brazil which is arguably a classic of cinematography by this point) is better.

    The miracle cease fire scene really caught my attention when I first saw the movie in the late 2000s.
