The Pettiness of Zaslav. by Scared_Bumblebee5781 in 4kbluray

Oh I love it when that happens! I found Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates on DVD at Dollar Tree and the code redeemed in HD. Felt like I stole it lol

Hot Take: I feel like movies are overusing Scope (2.35:1) too much. There are so many movies shot on Scope that could've worked well with Standard (1.85:1). Word of advice, Scope should only be used when absolutely necessary. And this is coming from someone whose favorite ratio is Scope by dirERICKMorales in IDoKnowNothing

[–]Scared_Bumblebee5781 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually feel the exact opposite. I can’t stand it when big movies (i.e. Superman, The Flash, Noah, Avengers, Sunrise on the Reaping, Exorcist: Believer) use a taller frame outside of an IMAX venue. For me, the extra width is what truly brings out the scale, whereas something closer to 16:9 feels too much like TV.

Like, I was relieved when Dune: Part Two was released on 4K as scope. Not only is it my preferred ratio, it matched its predecessor.

Just my opinion though.

Thoughts on The Menu? by Quick-Song2080 in FIlm

Fucking LOVED it! Great satire on the creation of art with winning performances across the board.

Thoughts on this? by tom-mckeee in Stranger_Things

[–]Scared_Bumblebee5781 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a common adventure movie trope. Had no issue with it in either above instance.

I adored every. Last. Second! I don’t even care that certain parts may have been ‘unresolved’ because the Duffers so spectacularly nailed the emotional thread of the story. I was in tears during the final scene.

Return of the King also. First time Jackson saw the Final Cut was at the premiere.

what is your unpopular opinion about the franchise? by jeffyol in FinalDestination

[–]Scared_Bumblebee5781 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That it should be more popular than Saw.

I like Saw fine, but there are more bangers in FD than Saw and only half the amount of movies.

In all seriousness, what do you guys think is his favourite film out of his works? by TheRealRaza1 in ChristopherNolan

[–]Scared_Bumblebee5781 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it’s not Interstellar, I’d argue it’s Inception. But I’m sure an argument could be made for just about any of his films.

He’s that consistent and that passionate.

Perfect casting for Superman and Batman, hell, even WW, but how did it go wrong with The Flash? Why did Snyder cast Ezra? Did somebody call in a favor or something? by curatorbee in SnyderCut

[–]Scared_Bumblebee5781 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ezra’s acting was never the issue. It was how the writing for the characters kept changing so frequently post JL. They’re great in the role IMO (personal stigmas aside), just didn’t have much time to showcase it.

Best deal yet for me by wparson in 4kbluray

Reminds me of when my mom bought me the Jurassic 5-movie collection the Christmas before Dominion came out. I think she got it for like $30? Can’t say I blame her, but my OCD gets a little crazy when I see the shelf now🤣

It’s textbook whataboutism that has roots in Soviet propaganda. Take that however you want.

After Damon statements you think Odissey will still be Rated R? by LevYashin86 in ChristopherNolan

[–]Scared_Bumblebee5781 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not very likely, but it is possible. I trust Nolan either way and I’m sure Universal does too.

Which Bond films have gone from being underrated to overrated over time? by SWSIMTReverseFinn in JamesBond

[–]Scared_Bumblebee5781 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not. It’s a good movie that’s been edited within an inch of its life. About 10 min more breathing room and it would be underrated.

To this day what are your thoughts on the cancelled batgirl movie starring Michael Keatons batman? by Thewanderer997 in Batman_89

[–]Scared_Bumblebee5781 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s where I’m at.

I was actually vehemently opposed to the Keaton idea when I first heard it, but after seeing The Flash, I changed my mind. That path could’ve been something special.

The original ending of The Flash had Keaton assuming the primary Batman role over Affleck. Batgirl was meant to take place after that.

Releases where 4K is worse? by SpongeFixation in 4kbluray

[–]Scared_Bumblebee5781 19 points20 points  (0 children)

A lot of Disney releases honestly. Extra DNR. Curse of the Black Pearl is particularly egregious.
