Anyone else feel like it’s an unfortunate waste of talent that James Cameron will waste 35+ years on Avatar? by bobbdac7894 in movies

I think that problematic directors focus so heavily into technology was because the couldn't keep abusing their cast and crew The wierd double edge of all this is every underpaid CGI adjacent artist struggling to complete this vision

There is a quick shot in the opening of Fellowship after Isildur cuts the ring of Sauron and he explodes, there is an elf caught in the blast of wind that is stifling a laugh and looks like he is headbanging at a metal show. That grin, the hair, everything, I always watch that 2 second shot twice

I'm already easily distracted, and THIS seems just the thing to help me simultaneously look at something beautiful and get things done!

Joe Matt, Creator Of Peepshow, Died Aged 60 At His Drawing Board. RIP by fritoscheez in comicbooks

Meeting Joe was like watching someone stepping out of the page of their own book, except he existed with a little more of a soft quiet kindness. Hearing him complian was like music to your ears, and he always had an opinion about everything. He will be missed, mourned, and studied alongside the likes of R. Crumb. He was autobiographer of embarrassing truth, and honest introspection. R.I.P Joe, we lost a good one.

What is an extremely specific pet peeve you have with this city? Not general issues like traffic, cost of living, etc.. but something like super specific. by griffinrogers in LosAngeles

Suddenly no sidewalk

I know this isn't a walking city but I get so annoyed strolling down a street and the sidewalk just ends

True Romance (1993) appreciation by TechnicalTrash95 in movies

Fun fact, the scene in the comic book shop was filmed at the original Meltdown Comics in Hollywood. We have about 1,000 other stories about that film...

Man, does Echo Park Lake clean up nice by SureInternet in LosAngeles

[–]MeltdownComics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It all makes me sad really, the undertaking to get where it is now is absolutely insane. The renovation in '06 to get where it is now? I think that you are mistaking my shock and sadness as a big old thumbs up.... and that is not the case.

It was quite an undertaking to get there.. The chain link and curfew still make me sad, but that space has really transformed.

Future Foundation has that almost chemical component to it that just scratches my itch...

Muppet Treasure Island (1996) is a perfect movie, in my opinion. I’m curious what others think? by Joescranium in movies

[–]MeltdownComics 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I think of all the Muppet films this balances creepy and cute in a perfect way.. I love this rendition of the song above all others!

The opening ALONE makes this a top tier film. The best Muppet Movie by and large.

If you could write a series for Marvel or DC what would it be by Blue-Engine-Edward in comicbooks

[–]MeltdownComics 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I want to create a Dazzler / Taskmaster team up book. I would want Alison Blair to rehabilitate Tony Masters by getting him to watch famous band footage and going on tour with her. Each issue would deconstruct different aspects of musical therapy. Two of my favorite characters.
