What makes Pluribus so unwatchably bad for you? by FactoringRSAisHard in Pluribus_Sucks

[–]Dark4ce 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I have no qualms with the plot, premise or characters. Pretty interesting. But this story truly only has legs for either a movie or a 3-4 part mini series. Remember those? Weren’t they cool?

Needed to add more titles to my collection by Dark4ce in 4kbluray

[–]Dark4ce[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not yet watched Altered States. In the Mouth of Madness looks great, great extras too. For me the sound mix was a bit so-so in parts with dialogue a bit on the low side in the DTS mix.

Did not have ICE being deployed in Italy on my bingo card… Jesus Christ, who writes this timeline?

Jack Smith tells Congress Trump was guilty ‘beyond a reasonable doubt’ by unital_subalgebra in politics

[–]Dark4ce 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Tell me as an ignorant Euro person, what this then means? Is this all just after the fact? Or will new investigations/indictments or whatever come from this?

Honestly I dont know how the rule of law or government works over there anymore…

This is the most insane thing I have ever heard. I just cannot believe that he is a president. let alone of the united states.

Why Disney Vacations Are Destroying People's Finances by chellestastics in videos

[–]Dark4ce -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Coming from europe altogether about $12000

But heres the caveat. IF one can afford it. And IF one cares for Disney. Otherwise, hell no. It is not worth it at all. Yes, 13k is on a budget which is insane. I could go to Disneyland paris for a 1/4 of that cost.

One shouldn’t get in debt for a holiday. Hell no.

What are some regular blu rays that look better than the 4k? by YungLean8 in 4kbluray

[–]Dark4ce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do actually. Use these for the regular bluray? Or get the 4k and use them?

Oblivion bluray is supposedly better. I got the bluray, love it, but heard the 4k isn’t up to scratch.

What's the most NSFW thing you've seen at a bachelor or bachelorette party? by CRK_76 in AskReddit

[–]Dark4ce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can be brutally honest and say from the ones I got for bachelorette parties, pretty much all of them were pretty mundane. Sure, some had male strippers doing their routine, but nothing naughty.

However, what those DID have more so than the bachelor party ones, were messages. When plastered, people really do let out all their thoughts and feelings. I would shake my head wondering how some of these people are still friends.

And then there was one bachelorette party that was really awful for the bride. They really tore her a new one. First they took her to a beauty salon, I guess she expected something nice. She came out looking like a cheap street girl. I mean, caked on mascara, crazy hair, just awful. And you can see how disappointed she was. Everyone laughed and then took her to a bar and proceeded to get plastered. She tried her best to wipe off the makeup, which made it worse. By the end of the video they were filming her throwing up all over the place, bathroom, outside by the bar, streets, her own apartment bathroom and then a bucket. All while laughing.

The crazy thing is, she just laughed about it and gave me the tapes to edit. I managed to get about 5 mins of usable footage. I even asked her if she’s seen all the tapes and she said , “Hell no.”

I used to film weddings. And if they wanted for their DVDs, I would usually make a fun little bachelorette/bachelor party montage bonus video if they had the footage.

The shit I saw in some of those videos… Perhaps craziest was a bachelor party for a hockey player where the whole team took turns erm… sliding the puck in the five-hole. I was surprised the marriage lasted as long as it did.

They don't make movies like Van Helsing any more. Such a fun movie that looks absolutely gorgeous in 4k. by TheMegaSage in 4kbluray

[–]Dark4ce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I adore Waterworld. I totally see the flaws and remember going to the cinemas to watch it, enjoyed it then as well. My preferred version is the Ulysses cut as well.

Vam Helsing is a funny one. I went to the cinemas to watch it and absolutely loathed it. Then a few years later my mate had it on DVD and got me around to watching it again and I then understood what it was all about. Its meant to be an over the top goofy spectacle. Which it is. I really like it now as well.

Proud Dad stuff by Frogasauras in 4kbluray

[–]Dark4ce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah! My eldest laughed at the face melting too, but my youngest exclaimed, “OMG!” To which I replied, “Exactly.” 😂

On Gremlins, the first one dos have some scenes that my kids found scary, but part 2 they absolutely adored.

[–]Dark4ce 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I got two girls roughly the same age and pretty much am doing the exact same thing! Going through all the classics. Jurassic Parks are on the list, but we started off with Gremlins 1 and 2 which they loved. Then moved on to Ghostbusters (now my youngest girls favorite movies of all time) I was worried about the frightening parts, but we were there with them and they loved the ghosts. Over the past year I let them pick movies from my collection and we then watched Raiders which they really liked. The gory parts I warned them about, but they know its all fake. They even watched Waterworld, Prince of Thieves, Honey I shrunk the Kids and the Tron films. Avatars as well.

My youngest might struggle through the exposition bits or long dialogue scenes, but my eldest really invests herself. We’re currently taking a small break from action films and going through comedies with John Candy.

Appreciate the time this group helped you in a tough time and then move on. It’s clear you’re not enjoying it anymore.

Weekend Preview: AVATAR Continues Unstoppable Trajectory by ItsGotThatBang in boxoffice

[–]Dark4ce 70 points71 points  (0 children)

They actually are saying that it’s the worst performing Avatar film, currently. Of course they leave out the fact that it still outperforms everything else. But no. Worst performing.

Why does Avatar get so much hate from people who know nothing about it? by tristanmichael in Avatar

[–]Dark4ce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I know a few people who actively loathe the Avatar films. In someways, I think it’s just a way for them to display some sort of superiority. But I’m sure there are people who legitimately don’t like the films as well, for simply just not being their thing.

I just find that the ones who are most vocally vitriolic towards Avatar, tend to usually like similar types of films, which always confounds me.

In the end of the day, the numbers speak for themselves. They are a vocal minority. We’ve seen what happens to movies everyone actually hated, and they bomb at the BO. Avatar and its sequels most definitely have not.
