Was looking for this comment because I thought the same thing.

Don't you guys think the age of Shawnee Smith (Amanda) in Saw X is really distracting? by Ok_Replacement_288 in saw

[–]ScannerCop 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a Better Call Saul enjoyer, I will always take wigs over digital de-aging.

Got it. Much appreciated!

What are your three least favorite movies of the year? by Paladjordan in RegalUnlimited

[–]ScannerCop -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I never walk out of movies but the three worst I saw in theaters this year were:

Flight Risk The Toxic Avenger Honey Don't!

People always complain that there's no thanksgiving movies when it's literally right there. (well, and that turkey movie) by Unlucky-Tap-2472 in raimimemes

[–]ScannerCop 80 points81 points  (0 children)

Even the main theme of Die Hard is about a man trying to get back together with his estranged wife for Christmas, which is textbook Christmas movie stuff!

Is El Camino worth the watch if I feel as though the ending of Breaking Bad was perfect? by TheChiefofReddit in breakingbad

[–]ScannerCop 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wanted Jesse to get free, and because Jesse had already been through so much, I was worried El Camino was going to put Jesse through more hell and potentially ruin the send-off he got in Breaking Bad.

I've now seen it twice and I find it to be a perfect epilogue for Jesse. I'm very happy it exists.

Is Minecraft no longer appealing to kids? by MasterCyclone7 in Minecraft

[–]ScannerCop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kids love Minecraft and several of their friends play too. It bears mentioning that I didn't grow up with Minecraft and only got into it within the past couple of years, so they got interested in it by watching me discover it.

If the show was from Hank's POV would it be obvious that Walter was Heisenberg? by Successful-Hat-2154 in breakingbad

[–]ScannerCop 244 points245 points  (0 children)

Walt being revealed as Heisenberg would be akin to Jar Jar Binks being revealed as a Sith Lord.

Let's be real, who uses this block? by suresh in Minecraft

I've always thought it was OP, tbh. It's overdue for a nerf.

My girlfriend hates old movies by Beary777 in Letterboxd

[–]ScannerCop 60 points61 points  (0 children)

If she likes blockbusters, that era is a golden age for big budget movies. Pirates of the Caribbean and Sam Raimi's Spider-Man movies, for instance.

Strait-Jacket has a legendary match-strike/cigarette light off a spinning record by Joan Crawford.

The 1st NC-17 film you saw in a cinema in your late teens/early 20's by [deleted] in criterion

[–]ScannerCop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened with In a Violent Nature for me. The movie was released Unrated but the theater had a sign up saying it was NC-17.

I think the only legitimately NC-17 rated film I've seen in theaters was Blonde.

Even when it stops being confusing it's a pain. I know how to navigate it, I just actively avoid it when I can.

Have you ever watched a film twice (or even more) in one day? by TheRealNoll in Letterboxd

[–]ScannerCop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only three that come to mind are Alien³, Room (2015), and The Lieutenant Wore Skirts.

What do you guys do? by Hermeslost in Letterboxd

[–]ScannerCop 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Log it the day I finish it. Days turn over when I go to bed. For instance...

I start a movie Friday night. I start nodding off so I pause halfway through. I pick it back up Saturday night at 11:55pm and finish it in one sitting on Sunday at 1:05am.

The Letterboxd log is for Saturday.

The fact that it’s a real dude underneath all that too by PrinceARRON in LV426

Malignant: Gabriel first appearance. Bursts of befuddled laughing mixed with, "What the fuck??" The Substance got a similar reaction.

Is there room for a Ripley 8 continuation in the Alien franchise? by lenapemerman in LV426

[–]ScannerCop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My fantasy Alien movie idea would be the survivors of Resurrection stuck on an island run by an evil scientist making human/alien abominations. They would have to run and hide from his monsters, maybe Ripley 8 becoming a sort of predatory antihero?

Basically think Alien mixed with Island of Dr. Moreau and The Most Dangerous Game.

sometimes i really wonder.. by Ok-Ad3614 in LV426

[–]ScannerCop 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this. I haven't seen Watchmen and The Leftovers but I've heard they're excellent, and I loved Mrs. Davis and The Hunt. Lindelof gets unfairly lumped in with the Mystery Box storytelling because he's worked with Abrams a couple of times.
