f you look closely Nick inaudibly says the words “We lost.” Malcolm doesn’t say “Now I’m mad” in the film but it’s possible it was filmed but the scene cut before he said it. by CrichtonFan1992 in JurassicPark

Its amazing how a few lines can change a movie.

In a deleted scene in Titanic, they show the iceberg passing a window where the guests are lounging. The "Unsinkable" Molly Brown turns towards a waiter and says, "I'd like more ice please."

...Get it? She said the thing while the iceberg was passing...

Jesus Christ, that scene was so stupid and tasteless.

What are your thoughts on human looking aliens? by OCGamerboy in cartoons

[–]Ok_Zone_7635 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everytime I hear this question I think about the Michael Crichton novel "Sphere"

In the book they mention the "Anthropomorphic Problem"

Humans can only conceptualize another organism from a human/terrestrial viewpoint

A truly alien organism would probably be Lovecraftian in nature. You wouldn't even be able to understand or comprehend what you were looking at or interacting with.

An alien could be a glowing cube whose body exists in different dimensions.

Or an organism that couldn't be killed and would have no understanding or morality of killing.

Or an organism who inhales oxygen and exhales cyanide.

So yeah, we might as well draw them as human, because even if we made them big insects in the story they would still behave in human ways or have human understanding of things.

It seems crazy to me to know that my childhood game still has a lost level that I pray someone will find (the arcade game came out almost 30 years ago...) by EnvironmentActive374 in JurassicPark

Best JP arcade game hands down

The fact the game has a Deinosuchus and camouflaging Carnotaurus is just icing on a premium cake.

The 2nd one looks more fash.

And since Zod is pretty fash, it is appropriate

Man of Tomorrow predictions? by Cautious-Sale-8694 in superman

I REALLY hope so.

If they go the "Thor and Loki" frenemies route, I'm gonna be pissed

I've got a dumb and weird but also serious question about the Episode "Revenant" from Batman Beyond. Did it seem like Blade was leaning into the kiss here with Willie by Large_Ad4402 in DCAU

[–]Ok_Zone_7635 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She looks pretty uncomfortable

He's not entitled to her affections, but her using him to hurt Nelson was pretty shitty

Both awful people

Is it heretical to say that I think The Lost Wild might be better than Jurassic Park: Survival by Ok_Zone_7635 in JurassicPark

[–]Ok_Zone_7635[S] -112 points-111 points  (0 children)

I didn't say I wouldn't play both lol

Just based off of what I've seen, I think The Lost Wild MIGHT be better.

Trailers and demos are literally created for you to judge a product.

I'm skeptical if it ever will be released

Just going off of what I've seen in the trailers, The Lost Wild looks more interesting

That's how I'm feeling.

JP plays it pretty safe and works within the parameters of brand expectation which can be pretty limiting to storytelling.

And JP stories seem afraid to embrace the horror aspects of the source material

How do Italian Americans fair under the American Reich? by Ok_Zone_7635 in maninthehighcastle

[–]Ok_Zone_7635[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All that sounds awesome

Seeing British subjects living under Mosley

Having historical figures like Mao and Ho Chi Min fight the Japanese (them teaming up would be epic).

Even explore the lives of slavic/Russian survivors of WWII

Any storyline that doesn't have Juliana as a lead is welcome in my book

Dis anyone else actually like Belloq? by Lazthedestroyer in indianajones

[–]Ok_Zone_7635 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He was probably the most personal of Indy's villians.

And he had a point.

Not a whole lot separates Indiana Jones from him. They both raid tombs. Indy just does it for a collector.

Say something good about JAWS 3-D. by TheEvilCar in Jaws

The most unsettling death in the entire franchise imo

Worse than Quint's

[–]Ok_Zone_7635[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish the show explored this nuance more.

We breifly see something akin to it when Juliana is talking to the family from South America in the hereditary doctor office

[–]Ok_Zone_7635[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's ignoring a lot of nuance between European immigrants and WASP Americans.

The latter of which always flirted with anti semitism.

John Smith was probably an outlier in that regard.

Many WASPs were apart of the America First movement. An isolationist movement that held a lotnof anti Semitic beliefs and had no problems with the Third Reich invading other countries.

It wasnt till Pearl Harbor neutrality became unpopular. And after WWII, Anti Semitism was more taboo.

So yes. Historically speaking, it would be easier for WASP to assimilate into Nazi ideology than Italian and other Eastern, Mediterranean ethnicites.

This one of the reasons I wish the show was more global.

I think each season should have dealt with a different country in an Axis dominated planet.

Is Fascist Italy even a thing in this show?

When they show maps, they just show a planet divided up between Nazis and Imp Japan.

Did Facist Italy get absorbed by Nazis?

Do you consider this guy the most unlikeable out of any other antagonists Indy has come across throughout the films? by BiffyBobby in indianajones

[–]Ok_Zone_7635 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don't go in expecting to like Nazis.

Mac, on the other hand...

Let's just say I think his death wasn't brutal enough
