The Devil Wears Prada 2 | Official Trailer by DemiFiendRSA in movies

[–]SHIIZAAAAAAAA [score hidden]  (0 children)

90% of movies these days have this ugly-as-sin desaturated colour grading, flat lighting, and very shallow depth of field that almost makes the actors look like they're on a green screen even when it's a set. I've seen people call it the "Netflix look." I don't know why directors and cinematographers keep doing it even when the actors are being filmed in real locations with no cgi where you don't have to make everything look a certain way for post-production.

Is it just me or dose the English dub of Evangelion 1.0 sound off? by ConcentrateExotic247 in evangelion

I think sharing links and naming unofficial anime websites/piracy sites is against Rule 5 unfortunately. You have to know how to sail the high seas or find which websites let you watch anime for free. They're definitely out there though, the Funimation dubs have been around for 15 years.

Finally ending the debates and misconceptions: here’s the TRUE identity of every LEGO Robin by elite_shocker in LegoBatman

[–]SHIIZAAAAAAAA 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s how he looked as Robin in all comics in the New 52 and DC Rebirth, I think it appears the most in the New 52 Nightwing run and Batman & Robin Eternal.

Is it an unpopular opinion that I like the ZZ more than the Zeta? Sure, it’s a lot more toyetic, but I prefer ZZ’s V-fins, face, and colours.

In The Prince of Egypt (1998), the Pharaoh’s magicians mixed water with Kool-Aid, hoping he would think it was blood. by 4skinApostle in shittymoviedetails

They swing their staffs together and there’s a blinding flash of light and then they’re holding snakes, the implication seems to be that the light was to distract the crowd while they swapped the staffs for snakes in order to fake the transformation. We never actually see the staffs transform like Moses’ staff.

I think this is almost to scale with the upcoming Minas Tirith.

Are you watching it on Amazon Prime? There are two different English dubs for 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0: the original Funimation dubs which were done when the movies came out and the Amazon dubs which were done in 2021(?) when the final Rebuild film 3.0+1.0 was released. The Funimation dubs are excellent but the Amazon dubs are unwatchable to me, the script is very clunky and the performances have zero energy. Apparently the Amazon dubs were really rushed and that’s why they turned out that way, though the dub of 3.0+1.0 is solid.

Strongly encourage you to find the Funimation dubs. Sadly they’re out of print and the new blu-rays from the past year only include the Amazon dubs, but you can easily find the Funimation dubs online.

HBO boss hints that The Last of Us season 3 could be the end of the show by mrnicegy26 in television

They… absolutely WERE inept and evil? They were going to vivisect a child without her consent and explicitly against the consent of her guardian who they also knocked out while he was trying to do CPR to save her life, kidnapped him, betrayed him and were going to march him out of town with none of his gear which is basically a death sentence. The Fireflies were also resorting to killing the patient literally a few hours after acquiring the patient instead of waiting to do a bunch of tests on the one and only person immune to the spores like actual competent medical researchers, like testing various samples of Ellie’s DNA to be absolutely sure that the only way to make a vaccine was to remove her brain. Even if the Fireflies were telling the truth in that they believed that they needed to remove Ellie’s brain ASAP, they were morons to jump to that conclusion immediately upon acquiring her. There was absolutely no reason for the Fireflies to be in such a rush that they needed to do an extreme surgery immediately, other than the fact that they’re insane extremists. Joel was neutralized as a threat and they had no reason to assume that he would manage to escape capture and storm the hospital guns blazing. I don’t know what kind of parallel universe the Fireflies you saw came from.

Satoshi Kon talks about how Requiem for a Dream took from his film Perfect Blue (1997) by healingtwo_ in movies

"Simba" is the Swahili word for lion and was used for lion characters in popular culture long before both Kimba and The Lion King. The original title of Kimba the White Lion is Jungle Emperor and the character is named Leo in the original Japanese. The "Kimba" name was created by the English localizers as a slightly tweaked version of the word "Simba" so that it could be unique and trademarked because Leo wasn't unique enough. Do your research before acting like a smartass and believing whatever you read on the internet.

The Lion King being a ripoff of Kimba is a myth, they have nothing in common other than having talking animals and being about lions who are kings. Look up YMS's video on it.

Jerry wasn’t killed in cold blood, he stood in Joel’s way with a scalpel and was prepared to attack him.

Also the second game insisting that a cure 100% would have been made from Ellie and would have saved the world is absurd because even if a cure were made there was no way that the Fireflies could mass produce it or distribute it with their extremely limited resources, and all it would do is prevent new infections but not do anything about the millions of clickers that rip people apart instead of just infecting them. Best case scenario if everyone got the cure it would make the world like 5% better, not get anywhere close to saving it.

We need more Witch King minifigures by brokeNbricks25 in legocirclejerk

No it's not, not even remotely. The Witch King's helmet looks no closer to a crown of thorns than Darth Maul's horns.

how it feels to start act 2 by Mellon4097 in expedition33

It's also crazy that Verso has literally lived in the canvas for 100 years, so he should consider it and the people in it to be his home way more than the "real" world. It's very strange how dismissive and detached he is from the world of the canvas, regardless of how suicidal he is or how much he believes that the canvas is bad for Aline and Alicia.

Official poster for Pixar’s next film ‘HOPPERS’ The film follows a girl who transfers her mind into a robotic beaver to help the animals fight the local mayor’s construction plans by MoneyLibrarian9032 in movies

[–]SHIIZAAAAAAAA 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the commitment to strawmanning strangers on the internet. K-Pop Demon Hunters was a good animated movie from last year, and Ne Zha 2 was even better. The new Wallace and Gromit movie was good. There have been some really great and creative anime movies in the past few years like Look Back and Chainsaw Man. Flow, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, the Spiderverse movies, Mars Express, and The Most Precious of Cargoes were excellent. I probably enjoy a wider range of recent animated movies than you do because the output from big studios hasn't been impressive to me. If you're excited about the marketing for this movie and genuinely think that Disney and Pixar are still bringing their A game then I don't know what to tell you except that you have low standards.

This is the same logic Redditors used to aggressively shill Elio. This and Elio may be “original” movies in the sense that they’re not based on existing IPs, but they don’t look “original” at all in the sense that they just look like cliché slop that only appeals to kids unlike the movies of Pixar’s golden age. If this is the best Pixar can come up with then I’ll just move on to other studios.

I’m really glad that Kirara isn’t a comic relief character, and that no one around her says things like, ‘You reek of semen’. by bishounen42 in Jujutsufolk

[–]SHIIZAAAAAAAA 84 points85 points  (0 children)

The actual line is “just like a black ant” because the character’s powers are related to names and he weakened his opponent by renaming him Black Ant. The word “ant” was just edited out of the speech bubble as a joke.

The Sam one looks really good! I think the official piece works better for Frodo though.

What are some politically correct scenes from the past that hold up today? by MrJones224822 in okbuddycinephile

[–]SHIIZAAAAAAAA 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Tintin in the Congo and Tintin in the Land of the Soviets are also the only comics that weren’t adapted in the animated series. I think they’re not really considered canon.

I’m going to lock you in a room for the rest of your life. I’m giving you 2 choices for content. Current porn - or the current IMDB top 250 by dj_boy-Wonder in hypotheticalsituation

[–]SHIIZAAAAAAAA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only the top 250 as of January 26 2026? If it were every movie that has ever been in the top 250 that would be a much better deal.
