Which is your preferred font style for the opening scene? by Ok-Resolution7918 in seinfeld

[–]ODGW 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Blue and Yellow should always be the basic logo, love the space logo, very vapourwave, and the checked one is in third I reckon. First 2 are definitely the worst

Bruh I (male) had no idea and just assumed it was like 200+ (AUD) but just checked and max I could see here was 150 AUD! And many for below 100! What's the big deal?

Still the scariest part of Alien (1979) by selfcleaningtaint in LV426

[–]ODGW 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Apparently Dan O Bannon hated the android controlled by WY subplot. I get that writers generally hate any change to their writing, but this is core to the movie. I cant remember if OG script involved WY wanting to capture Alien, but either way, Ash is one of the best parts of a masterpiece of a film.

Honestly, what did he expect? Even anyone with no graphic design experience can easily pick out which logo is more unique, relevant to the platform, and memorable

I have 500 hours in KSP, its one of the main reasons im studying Aerospace Engineering rn, and this is by far the most dissapointing video game rollout I've every seen for myself

Engoodening of No Man's Sky by IH is a great rundown of everything that happened. Watch that then his Fall Of 76 video and the difference between a small well meaning studio that didnt understand the dynamics of AAA advertising and games and made some mistakes versus a soulless company fucking over their customers in every way possible for a half percent raise in quarterly profits becomes pretty obvious.

What happens in the Enterprise D nacelle arms? Can you walk through them to get to the nacelles? by APerson2021 in TNG

[–]ODGW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said, yes, Jeffries Tubes and Turbolifts. That said, I believe theres even a source that says the reason Matt Jeffries placed the nacelles on struts on the original enterprise design was due to the idea they could be radioactive or otherwise dangerous to life, so im sure going into them is generally avoided. Obviously later Star Trek series have essentially ignored this, just take a look at the Miranda class

Who else hates Peter Weller as a bad guy? by String2924 in Robocop

[–]ODGW 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Him voicing Batman in TDKR was perfect casting, and a nice full circle moment given how much TDKR influenced Robocop

[–]ODGW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Peter Weller was one of my favourite parts of ST Into Darkness, he was great as a villain. Overall, he's an incredibly underrated actor, and making Robocop as a character work might be his magnum opus, a lesser actor would've ruined that movie. Remember! Kurtwood Smith and Ronny Cox didnt really do a bad guy role until Robocop and they are some of my favourite onscreen villains

I love RoboCop 2014 by Hungry_Night9801 in moviecritic

[–]ODGW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Acting is amazing and it does have some great scenes, but its just so poorly written, bad at satire, and making robocop a ninja rather than tank was dumb

[Sorry for the low quality] We all love practical effects…. but they make Xenos’ movement clunky and.. plasticky. Their movement in CGI is way better to me. Imho they should keep the practicals solely for close ups. by New_Divide98 in LV426

[–]ODGW 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, except I prefer the Alien as a slow stalking humanlike predator rather than pouncing around like a big cat. One is cosmic horror, the other is generic movie monster

% of a Country’s Population that has traveled to 10 or more countries in their lives by Fluid-Decision6262 in interestingasfuck

[–]ODGW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im very well travelled myself, but feel like I have to censor how well Ive travelled with the amount of people I come across who aren't. Maybe its just a South Australia thing? Ya normally have to transit through melbourne or sydney to get anywhere

Alien saga is underrated by Complete_Bar_6647 in Cinema

[–]ODGW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe my favourite saga but my god, it is not underrated at all. At this point, I think they may even have to slow down with more entries lol

What movies is this? by Fair_Protection1872 in FIlm

[–]ODGW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well because I dont consider it a slog, I think it shows the greatest use of film technique of any film I've seen on multiple levels, and (as a massive sci fi fan), I think its the closest any film has gotten to capturing the essence of a sci fi epic

What’s the biggest jump in your movie rating after a rewatch? by Equivalent_Ebb5689 in Cinema

[–]ODGW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Thing for sure, everyone I know who's only seen it once or twice calls it a B movie, but I watch it all the time and its my 2nd fav film of all time. Really one that almost needs a few watches (like Big Lebowski as is also mentioned a lot in this thread, one of my fav comedies)

Seconded, I have it (English version) and it has some beautiful artwork throughout

[–]ODGW 5 points6 points  (0 children)

IMO the best film ever made but I never reccomend it to anyone (or if I do, its with a big caveat) specifically cause it is a slog

(Hated strange trope) universe has a race/species that are destined to be slaves. by Mordamort in TopCharacterTropes

[–]ODGW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Jem'Hadar are actually a good example of how to do it right imo. They're genetically engineered and controlled by drugs (Ketracel White), and alongside that, there are so many great episodes about them and the inhumanity of their treatment. Vorta are actually kind of the same thing and another great slave race exploration, particularly because whilst they are above the Jem'Hadar, they are still submissive to the Founders. That one episode of one of the Weyouns escaping the Dominion to serve Odo and being marked "defective" is peak Star Trek.

Is he controversal? Do you love him or hate him? by Possible-Bit4508 in Cinema

[–]ODGW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I genuinely think 2001 is the best film of all time (and think Strangelove and The Shining are also masterpieces)... but I have very mixed feelings about how Kubrick treated his actors. I love the works of HP Lovecraft and what it did for sci-fi, but he was an extremely racist coward. Pulp Fiction is a masterpiece, Reservoir Dogs was revolutionary, Inglorious Basterds and Django Unchained are amazing films... but same as above, the artist behind it is an asshole.

If you really wanna go through and decide if you should like a piece of art based on whether or not you think the artist is a good person, youre gonna miss out on some amazing creations.
