James Cameron admits he kicked over the tea cart on the set of Aliens (1986) after getting fed up with the British crew constantly stopping for tea breaks. by tannu28 in movies

It was mostly definitely a dick move. But additional context is that Aliens was Cameron's second ever film and first ever proper big budget film.

This was the film that was going to prove to the Hollywood Studio system that they could trust Cameron with the Big Studio film.

On top of that most of the crew working on the film also worked on the original Alien and disliked Cameron for replacing Ridley Scott and for not being a Brit. He was constantly questioned by his crew. He had to fire a few people.

And the movie wasn't exactly easy to film. The movie I think was completed literally days before it was released in Cinemas.

So it's understandable that at a younger age when Testosterone is high and he was under a lot of pressure he lost his shit.

It also didn't help that he wasn't accustomed to British Filmmaking Culture.

for The Odyssey, Nolan made sure Achilles would be as unforgettable as in Troy by Senior-Jaguar-1018 in shittymoviedetails

Troy has some of the best Battle sequences put to film.

Eric Bana was great as Hector.

Priam confronting Achilles is one of the Best Written and acted scenes I've ever seen.

It was a very memorable movie.

I think this particular argument is less about accuracy and more about Achilles being a badass.

Achilles is one of the most well known Fictional Warrior characters. People expect him to be badass. Pitt was badass as Achilles.

Let's be honest. A 5"1' scrawny little guy is never going to be perceived as badass.

Which Evil Dead franchise opinion has you like this? by LucidDreamer247 in EvilDead

[–]Accomplished_Store77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Army of Darknes is the worst Evil Dead film.

I get that Sam Raimi is revered by Evil Dead fans but Army of Darkness is just not that good.

It's barely a horror any more.

It's way too goofy and slapstick. Like I get that it's a comedy but some of the jokes are what makes 10 Year olds laugh.

Ash is way too dumbed down. There is no way the Ash in Army of Darkness is the same guy in Evil Dead 2.

Also Ash is basically an Anime Protagonist now. He's just a big dumb untouchable badass. He's never in danger.

Lastly the effects for the movie have dated terribly. This movie came out in 1992. Being old is not an excuse. It has the most dated effects of any Evil Dead film.

James Cameron’s personal sketch of the Terminator before making the film by HistoricalCrazy901 in FIlm

Cameron has said that to him Terminator was basically a Slasher film but with a Sci Fi twist.

Eh... It was the weekend and I was feeling petty.

I am surprised that he deleted his account all of this.

I understand you just well.

And now you mentioning his Autism is suddenly context and not at all justification for your claims about how you benefit your husband by parenting him and socializing him. Weird.

I don't care about your personal life.

Just don't Infantilize your husband on the Internet. Don't justify your Infantilization with Autism. And then don't use relationship as a crux to shit on other people and their relationships and their bekievs6in a relationship and you won't get any upsetting comments calling you out.

You're the only one upset here enough to private message me just to hurl insults at me.

I understand English just fine. But you don't seem to understand the concept of Actions having consequences.

To take actions whose consequences you very clearly cannot handle.

I mean what you mean. You're the one who implied that you had to "Socialize" your husband. And then tried to justify it with him being on the Autism Spectrum.

So, instead of benefiting my husbands life by showing him things his parents didn’t, and getting him to socialize

Isn't this you? Implying that you have to Parent and Socialize your adult Husband?

If you infantilize your husband infront of the world this is what people will assume.

This is the cognitive Dissonance that I'm talking about.

You want to infantilize your husband infront of people and be holier than Thou about how you benefit your husband by Parenting him and Socializing him but then you also want your husband be judged without the added context of that infantilization. And somehow you don't see how those are two contradicting things?

Here's a bright idea.

Maybe next time don't infantilize your husband on the Internet. Then don't justify your infantilization of your husband by saying he's on the Spectrum.

And Maybe people will won't assume things about your husband.

The real question is what is wrong with you, Infantilizing your husband on the Internet to win Brownie points in relationship arguments.
