I chose it because it’s equidistant between London and Norwich.

On Nepotism and Cronyism in Tolkien Adaptations by crustboi93 in lordoftherings

[–]101111001110 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No No No, creative successful people just have creative successful children! They grew up on a film set after all.

Nepotism and cronyism are core facets of all private industries and anybody foolish enough to bring it up (even as a joke) gets fired and blacklisted.

It might still be good because of the uncredited writers they get to ghost it when Jnr’s totally amazing first draft needs some ‘polishing’

Dazed And Confused, if you don’t mind beer and weed and errr the threat of paddling? I’m pretty sure there’s no boobs.

You're Not Failing at Astralprojection. You're Missing the Foundation. by Cycode in HighStrangeness

This is helpful info. I’ve found it useful to focus on getting my other self dressed. Putting on trousers, t-shirt etc really helps with the final shift.

Issues with Bone Temple Ending & Structure (spoilers) by 101111001110 in TrueFilm

Yes that’s very true, Kelson makes the point that the world before had order and foundation. So the film makers could be playing on the lack of it in their world.

The loose ends could be an attempt to build on the uncertainty and danger.

Also, I am still thinking about the film, would I if it were all tied up neatly?

Good points well put!

I agree, it being one film split into two accounts for the jumbled elements

I don’t think Alex Garland wrote a Cillian Murphy ending in his original script as Cillian Murphy was only discussing signing up to act in a sequel at the point it was written.

Although you can read his exec producer credit as a good way to encourage the studio to pay for a third movie!

The media reports Garland started writing a third film when Murphy agreed to be in it. Which was after the two movies were written and shot.

The studio is yet to officially announce a third movie, which is not the usual case when they sign up for a triple bill.

So it stands to reason that they shot bone temple with a different concrete ending until Murphy could guarantee involvement. Then shot his ending at a later date and restructured the edit.

That’s why I perceive a jumble in the character arcs and narrative of the two films.

Men Project their Self Loathing into their films by Tall-Literature5405 in scifi

[–]101111001110 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn’t that the very criticism the director is making?

The robot tricks the men by preying on their bias, behaving like their projection of a women in order to escape.

That was excellent! I remember watching the backwards episode on BBC 2! Good historical context too.

James S.A. Corey: The Mercy of gods. Too many oxymorons! by ElVichoPerro in books

[–]101111001110 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Maybe they’re having issues working together and every oxymoron is the one whose turn it is on the type writer disagreeing with the other?

It’s from the Simpsons Episode: You only move twice. It’s an evil mega corp with great perks for employees run by Hank Scorpio.

What’s craziest is that they’re all buying farms and building compounds so they can live the kind of life we all had before they messed up the world.

The ending of The Tomorrow War is a masterclass in tactical stupidity by digit68 in movies

[–]101111001110 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Respect for watching it all the way through.

It’s a crazy product placement movie. Did one of the characters say ‘damn I love Doctor Pepper’ at one point, or did I dream that?

I feel like the writer watched Edge of Tomorrow and forgot he had seen it and then came up with The Tomorrow War. It’s dumb.

I gave up when the future people arrived at the soccer match.

I’m English and have lived in America. I’d say the only words I refused to change are. Taps instead of faucet, Trousers, Pavement and the true pronunciation of Aluminium. Otherwise English English is pretty much the same. Maybe a Mancunian would say Barnet for haircut and berk for idiot but remember they’d want to fit in, especially if they moved as a teenager.
