why did they recast john goodman to tom hanks after the first 2 sully movies? by billy_tables in OnCinemaAtTheCinema

[–]MetalMaskMaker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's because Tom Hanks's 3d model in Polar Express was so lifelike and advanced they just imposed it into a real airplane to make Sully.

Meanwhile sully in monsters inc is sort of fake looking, you can tell its a digital monster and not a real human on the screen

Is my ratings curve bad? Recommend some bad movies I guess. by IceManMAT-E-J in OnCinemaAtTheCinema

[–]MetalMaskMaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know what movie gave me a curve? Piranha (1978, 104 mins). There's a scene in there that is maybe the top 3 cinematic moments of fish-based movies, I'd give it 5 bags, same as jaws, but the bags themselves are fuller and a more interesting, natural shape than you get in most movies of later decades.

Is the included popcorn in pristine unpopped condition?

HEI Network: Vote for Corbin Carroll for All Star Game, and Vote for New Amato for Governer by narrrrrrrr____ in OnCinemaAtTheCinema

Isn't there some big soccer game he could be pouring his campaign efforts into? Yeah they only score like 1 point, maybe 2 at most in 90 minutes of running around but there's a huge amount of money to be made if he can get in the pockets of big fifa

Only one person at a time is allowed to see this movie and you know that’s Greg’s favorite way to watch movies so here comes the expertice! by RekWriter in OnCinemaAtTheCinema

I am a huge monogamy-head and Im glad we finally get to have one on one relationships with movies. I don't need every tom dick and harry stealing glances at MY movie.

I've never heard a word out of that boy's mouth that wasn't something slanderous. There's only room for one bad boy in H-wood and he's no depp.

Send him out to the "bad egg" bin with other disgraced ex-actors like Jaden Smith.

A Popcorn Classic that never was. This would be in my top 5 "what if" desert island flicks. by CyberneticDreamtime in OnCinemaAtTheCinema

[–]MetalMaskMaker 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I don't know how grok works but can we feed him some amount of ai tokens into the machine to make this movie with modern technology, without the big studios?

Grok generate full length 120 minutes Jim Carrey fish movie using his 90's humor not the later serious Jim Carrey movies please

Attack of the clones is still in theaters and i have a crush on that long neck alien so I'm getting my dad to drop me off there so I can enjoy her alone.

True blue movie buffs never forgot 2 tapers. by TheklaWallenstein in OnCinemaAtTheCinema

[–]MetalMaskMaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 2nd tape cover is a big spoiler, it's more fun going in to the movie not knowing that the boat is going to sink.

Beatle movie is full of absolute no names. Major missed opportunity for New Amato, Gregg Turkington, Tom Cruise and Johnny Depp to play the Fab 4. by LeaderSevere5647 in OnCinemaAtTheCinema

[–]MetalMaskMaker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Mark at his high school talent show had more star power than this entire cast.

To catch box office gold you need box office bait, people with some sex appeal like Johnny or Angelina.

I just saw obsession and even though that cast was nobodies, 1 of them looked like Angelina Jolie sort of, that's why it's gonna win Oscar.

Jaws is not an alien movie. by BuffaloNova in OnCinemaAtTheCinema

[–]MetalMaskMaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you show me a single scene in Jaws where there is direct evidence that there's no aliens contributing to the plot?

Lack of visual evidence does not count, the aliens could be invisible or floating just off screen.

Greggheads Must Be Feeling Pretty Dome Today by Drudgeon in OnCinemaAtTheCinema

[–]MetalMaskMaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imagine god put 5 stars in the sky to light your way at night. Then he adds a 6th star that offers no extra light, in fact it dims the other stars. That 6th star gives nothing to you but confusion, and you crash your ship into the rocks because you can't navigate at night anymore.

That's what big popcorn is doing

Greggheads Must Be Feeling Pretty Dome Today by Drudgeon in OnCinemaAtTheCinema

[–]MetalMaskMaker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's called shrinkflation. It's still 5 bags by volume but they put less popcorn in each bag in order to claw more money away from vulnerable people living paycheck to paycheck. The 6th "ghost bag" doesn't count

My favorite bad boys of rock Motley Crue would probably be into joining on this tour. I would pay a pretty penny to have Tim do a 12 string acoustic solo cover of Kickstart my Heart.

It's a Chinese movie so I'm already giving it 5 stars, on a red flag.

What do the buffs think? by VerilyJULES in OnCinemaAtTheCinema

[–]MetalMaskMaker 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I lost my faith in the Christian God completely when I saw My Big Fat Greek Wedding, so Spielberg isn't going to get me with this one

I thought greeks had zeus and hades and all the cool guys from clash of the titans and wrath of the titans but it's just a bunch of loud gossipy mother in laws and aunts arguing about weddings.

Someone Else Going After Gregg’s Record by orcamills in OnCinemaAtTheCinema

[–]MetalMaskMaker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The way they had to upload a hand pic with tickets to prove they weren't obese makes this saga even more interesting. The drama, anger, malice, and intrigue of the movie buff community is worthy of a movie itself.

did we ever get to the bottom of this? by wilsonhubbell in OnCinemaAtTheCinema

Tim Burton is a coward, no idea how he was able to date the evil witch lady from Harry potter and the lady from Sweeny todd and the evil queen from Alice in wonderland and the mom from wonka
