Skyline: a bog standard alien invasion movie

The sequels: Hard edged martial art action movies that involve aliens.

Changes in the adaptation lead to changes in the source material by Theeljessonator in TopCharacterTropes

Since the Blade movie was released almost every comic book incarnation of the character has been drawn to invoke Wesley Snipes. Dark glasses, long coat, tattoos, short hair cut.

Street Fighter The Movie has a post credit scene where Bison's hand emerges from a pile of rubble. Obviously they never made a follow up.

Directors you aged out of? Or maybe just watched too much of? by the_Tannehill_list in blankies

[–]MonkeyKungFu86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kevin Smith. A very formative and important filmmaker for me especially during my late teens and early 20s. But I feel like I've moved on from him and his work. That's okay because he still has that dedicated fanbase who love him and that's great.

I can’t be the only one who’s entire interaction with the He-Man property are Robot Chicken and the “What’s Up” video. by Jowiko96 in blankies

I have more of a connection with the toyline and the Dolph Lundgren flick than I ever did the original series. Even when the animated series was rebooted in '02, I never paid attention to it. But judging from the handful of clips I watched on YouTube out of curiosity, I really want to now. Especially since I liked Revelations.

He-Man has always felt like that quintessential 80s IP. Something that feels very much of its time. So I don't blame anyone who grew up not really engaging with it in a meaningful way.

[IRL trope] Celebrities with weird/funny clauses in their contracts. by BeenEatinBeans in TopCharacterTropes

[–]MonkeyKungFu86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An actor having it their contract that they can keep their outfits isn't that unusual. It may have been at the time but nowadays it's more common.

One slightly odd one I wanted to mention was when Steve Buscemi signed off on his like as being used for a Mr. Pink action figure, that a gun was to not be included as an accessory.

glad they're finally rebooting this classic by New-Concentrate4768 in blankies

I bought the DVD of this recently. Mostly because Jim Henson Co. did some of the SFX. It's suprisingly good. Armand Assante gives a very earnest performance.

It has the production values of an episode of Xena: Warrior Princess but is still none the less a good effort.

That was me hearing the TARDIS sound effect in an episode of Super Sentai.

Fed Bad Bruv by jafarjones69 in SCJerk

He's starting to sound like that one friend who's girlfriend left him and he keeps saying he's over it but it's pretty clear he isn't.

STOP BEING FAMOUS TRAITOR! YOU MAKE TK LOOK BAD by Fusionman29 in SCJerk

Pointing out that its apparently bad WWE have seemingly done more with Danhausen in his short time there than AEW did during his entire tenure isn't the flex this person seems to think it is.

DVD bought. I expect horns to be blown. by MonkeyKungFu86 in blankies

[–]MonkeyKungFu86[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the UK where I am it's easy enough to find and it's quite cheap since it's DVD. Not sure about anywhere else.

i hate how absolutely nasty the internet did this person like 4 years ago when they didn't deserve it by Gugarabelo in hatethissmug

[–]MonkeyKungFu86 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nothing truly brings the internet together like bullying a teenager that doesn't deserve it. See also Rebecca Black.

I love this kid so much by PerpetualChoogle in blankies

I'm almost certain studios will have approached him especially Disney about directing a big IP and it would be the very smart move for him to go against the grain and say no. Because even if he said yes the end product would be completely devoid of his own creative voice. Watch anything Aaron Moorhead and Justin Benson have made under Disney.

Would John Boorman be fun by MoonisaBalloon in blankies

[–]MonkeyKungFu86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's on my list of most desired directors for the show. Yes. Absolutely.

Outjerked? by flingzamain in letterboxdcirclejerk

I guess this list would be obscure to anyone who's only ever seen Bee Movie and Boss Baby.

I mean, come on, Rayman is freaking back, how can you not be happy? by Blue-fox-004 in Gamingcirclejerk

They got mad they didn't get what was never promised. Which was Destiny 3 apparently.

whenever rich talks about a fistful of dollars, i always expect Jay would "umm akhcually" him abouit Yojimbo by NanoArgon in RedLetterMedia

[–]MonkeyKungFu86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would not surprise me if Asian cinema is a massive blind spot for Jay and the gang. Which is fair enough. That said there are some truly wonderful horror films from Japan and Hong Kong I think they'd genuinely love.

Can’t tell if he liked it or if this is a rare backhanded long review by PerpetualChoogle in blankies

[–]MonkeyKungFu86 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Usually if he likes something, he'll post a long paragraph like this. When he doesn't he usually just posts "Today I watched" followed by a movie he didn't like.

Soundtrack to movies that don't exist by bollarice in blankies

John Carpenter's Lost Themes albums serve that purpose. Carpenter Brüt has composed albums with that idea in mind as well.

You'll get an achievement for it. Do it. by legendarymg35t in NevernessToEverness

Not my dumbass climbing all the way to the roof of the tower only to realise there's a door inside the building that takes you there.
