I'll probably watch some of the 2nd season of Discovery. Luckily, we have esteemed reporters like Tilly Pearce and Joanne Kavanaugh to remind us how season 1 went in their 18 January 2019 article, published 13 days ago at https://www.thesun.ie/tvandshowbiz/tv/516981/when-is-star-trek-discovery-available-on-netflix-whos-in-the-cast-with-james-frain-and-sonequa-martin-green-and-whats-the-prequel-about/
>Discovery begins a decade before Captain Kirk's five-year mission in the 1960s series and a century before the events of Star Trek: Enterprise.
>The series followed the crew of the USS Discovery as they encounter new worlds and civilizations while delving into familiar themes. Discovery also expanded upon the Federation-Klingon war, an incident that has been talked about within the franchise's universe, but never fully explored.
This is so much more useful than the description archived 13 months ago in December 2017 at https://archive.fo/oOixv/
>the story of "Star Trek: Discovery" begins roughly a decade before Captain Kirk's five-year mission – as portrayed in the original "Star Trek" from the 1960s – and a century before the events of "Star Trek: Enterprise".
>The series follows the crew of the USS discovery as they encounter new worlds and civilizations, delving into familiar themes and expanding upon an incident which has been talked about within the franchise's universe, but never fully explored.
The most important thing is that these ladies drive home the point that Discovery takes place 100 years before Enterprise. Simple math then allows us to deduce that TOS takes place 90 years before Enterprise. This of course makes COMPLETE sense to anyone who watched Enterprise, because that definitely was not also a prequel to TOS, that's for damned sure.

This has been a weird obsession/dream project of the main guys involved which after 20 years they finally got the funding and tech to pull it of how they want it so I will probably give it watch for that reason but my expectations are rock bottom.

I can't take TV seriously anymore because of how diverse they force everything to be. For example in cop and FBI shows, they always have these strong succubus characters who can kick anyones ass even though they're borderline anorexic. How does a 200+ pound man get thrown across the room by the punch of a 100 pound succubus? Since when is the FBI made up of a racially diverse team of men and succubus and not just all white men? Why are so many marriages portraying 2 people of different races even though 99% of married white people in USA are married to another white person?
And the cheesy forced romance and love scenes really bother me too. If I wanted to watch some people dryhump eachother, I'd turn on some porn. Now they're trying to make every show include softcore porno which draws away from the story. Makes sense though because I guess they have little to write about so they need to add as much filler as possible to entertain the low IQ viewers with mind numbing nonsense. Even TV shows about serial killers seem to have every side character in a romantic relationship at some point

amazon is remaking the movie hanna into a TV drama series… I dont know why, because a 2 hour movie told the story well, and the soundtrack was great (film score by the chemical brothers), and the whole story was filed with allusions to fairy tales and drew a lot of inspiration from stanley kubrik. This new series is a generic revenge story female protagonist with her assorted gang of multiracial sidekicks.
The original did a great job of highlighting how abnormal hanna was (being a supersoldier with no empathy) but the new series is just a generic "super stronk gril fights faceless goons because they think she is weak."
related is the remake trailer

I thought so too, but the eyes were not that horrible once I watched it. I guess the fact that she is android/cyborg made it feel okayish.
The movie was good, excluding all the teenage romance.

First comic book themed movie I have been remotely interested in in a long time. The trailer is pretty interesting at least. I think it would be interesting to have more movies based on villains than the standard hero tripe. Also, it is probably too early to tell but the Joker seems kind of wizardly here.

I was thinking since we're already halfway through 2019, maybe we could just turn this into a general current media thread.
Like I see people wanting to talk about TV show plot twists in Game of Thrones and reactions to the Sonic trailer but its splintered across Wizchan and crawl and even news threads.
So maybe just convert this into a thread for all new media

There are already several on this very board for diffrent forms/flavors of media or subject matter.
I don't think a media general is really necessary, and personally I don't want it.
Can't speak for anyone else though.
Wizchan is slow enough that it really shouldn't be a problem with discussion being dispersed, and a general wouldn't make all the other threads disappear. It would just be one more thread on top of all the other threads.
Just learn to use the all the functions at your disposal to follow the conversations you want to keep track of if it matters that much to you.

Also, there's things but as for what's next on my list is tonight's season finale of Legends of Tomorrow.

I liked The Bells episode, was glad that they at least didn´t go with the capeshit route of having all be fan service with a happy ending. But the final episode was dumb to the extreme, really makes no sense and leaves everyone with just a "meh wathever" feel. The counsel part was really corny, ridiculous, offers no satisfactory solution and makes no sense inside the worldbuilding.
The plot points didn´t get a good or believable resolution, it was very hacked. But at elast i am glad is over, been watching that show without really being into it for years, i read all the books already by season 3 and haven´t been hyped since.

I watched several animated versions including Disney's version and direct to vhs follow ups, and a bit of the show.
I refused to watch the new live action one though. I hope they lose money on it so they can stop with this stupid bullshit.

The "heroes" are much more psychologically complex and human-like, rather than the usual altruistic cardboard cutouts. Yeah, it's different from a traditional capeshit because the focus is on the inner lives of heroes, their public persona and their private selfish self that only cares about fame and money. The thing about something like the Avengers is that all the characters "earned" their powers somehow and in the boys universe you had babies randomly getting the serum and growing up getting told they're special, chosen by god etc. leading to spoiled celebrities instead of people with an inner sense of justice.

Did they really had to give him a gf?
Someone like Phoenix's character IRL would definitely be either celibate (doesn't matter if involuntary or not) or have a really ugly and fat succubus friend. No way he would be dating someone as good looking as that actress.
It's a shame, this could have been a pretty cool warlock movie. Still looking forward to it though.

You know I watch Red Letter Media, and as harsh as they are on Star Wars, they basically admitted they don't know what they want from it. Too many Stormtroopers like Rogue One and its parasiting off the original trilogy, break new ground like the prequels and it doesn't have the Star Wars spirit, try to recapture New Hope like TFA and its a remake, try to surprise people and subvert the trilogy expectations and its TLJ
By their own admission, they want them to redo the trilogy and not redo the trilogy.
Its basically like that kid focus group from The Simpsons
idk maybe New Hope was a cool movie, but the whole concept of trying to spin a whole universe out of it just doesn't work. I know they did it with the Expanded Universe, but that was more hard scifi that appealed to a niche audience, with a boost from the Star Wars name.
They basically want Star Wars to be another Marvel. But Marvel has 60 years of universe-building. While Star Wars has 3 good movies from the 70s.

a few people including myself theorize that the original ugly Sonic design in the last trailer was never actually going to be used in the film, and that they only used that ugly 3D model for the trailer. this was to get everyone talking about it.
then, wait months later and reveal the real sonic in a new trailer, which isn't new and was in the film already the whole time.
fake controversy, make the "new" sonic design look better in contrast to the deliberately ugly one, got millions of people talking about it. makes sense.

You push that theory every time the subject comes up, but it is the most unlikely of explanations of what happened. Especially looking at other examples in reason history as well as the lack of direct evidence that such a conspiracy took place.

I really hate black bars wasting my precious screen space in either width or height. The purists want the creator's original intent and hate cropping, and their complaints get all the press. But for casuals like me, we just want it to look nice on the big screens we paid for
>>50891
When it is poorly cropped it cuts out content, looks bad, and yeah it disrupts the creator's intent.
Also the fans are the ones that should be listened to because they both spend the most money on the thing and spend most consistently.

I mean for me when I 1st got Netflix, the films were almost unwatchable to me with the black bars. Since it seems like most studios are lazy anyway and just cut out the edges. Simplest thing to satisfy everyone would just be to offer both options. They have unlimited server space anyway.

Isn’t Spring Breakers degenerate filth? I turned it off after the first five minutes.

Depends on what you mean by "degenerate filth." I viewed it as satire of spring break culture being turned up to 11. There's a ridiculous amount of sex and drugs and violence shot in that commercial advertisement/music video style that I saw it as Korine showing just how ridiculous everything about it was. James Franco does a great job as Alien, and the female actors are so awful that they're perfect for portraying dumb young teenagers. I think I'll watch it again today and give a more thorough post sometime later.

Okay, I just finished watching Spring Breakers all over again. Great movie and 100% Korine, an over-the-top parody of spring break movies and scathing critique of the lifestyle. And the actresses are actually really good at being living filth, I guess I just remember hating them and thought they were bad because of it.
It's a beautiful feature-length music video. The visuals and soundtrack are perfect for one another, and the casting is great. James Franco excels as a diseased predator. And the excessive sex and drugs and violence is discomforting instead of titillating. If you like Korine's films, you should give it another shot. The movie transforms radically around half an hour in when the four succubi get arrested.

Two and half years ago I saw "The Garden of Words" by same director.
I remembered it being a less depressing version of "Battles in the desert" by Jose Emilio Pacheco.
It's almost as if the director made sure every body swap story I ever saw or would see was a less depressing version of "Your Name" as payback.

So…is the new godzilla flick any good? Or just a repeat of that piece of shit from five years ago? Because I want gojira, not AMURIKAS ARMY® SAVES TEH DAY (with guest appearance by gojira) !!
And not some shoe-horned human interest drama with a cameo by gojira.

Will it make (much of) a difference if Ghidorah, Mothra, and Rodan also cameo?

>what are you saying?
It is a silly joke related to the name.
Reverence humor, how does it work?

King of the Monsters is great. Godzilla gets characterization while not denigrating his mystique, great soundtrack, nuanced themes. The critical flaws with Godzilla 2014 were taken to heart. My only real dislike is that fights are still cut away from, with the climax juggling like three action scenes. Still nothing as egregious as the 2014 movie.
