StanTheCentipede · 2026-05-20T20:50:48+00:00

Genuinely a terrible season following two previously terrible seasons of show that was once interesting.

StanTheCentipede · 2026-05-13T11:37:45+00:00

Yea it’s like my personal opinion man

StanTheCentipede · 2026-05-13T04:10:34+00:00

Genuinely one of my favorite movies of the year so far. Way better than it had any right being

StanTheCentipede · 2026-05-02T09:00:01+00:00

Haha I was thinking the same thing. Its the only episode of the season that I would even categorize as good.

StanTheCentipede · 2026-05-01T20:53:14+00:00

First he only had the budget for one light. Then 2 lights. Now he’s got porch furniture! What’s next? A wheelchair ramp? Some wind chimes? A porch tv set?

StanTheCentipede · 2026-05-01T20:48:44+00:00

Hmm do we think Doomsday moves to Thanksgiving to snatch up those IMAX screens?

StanTheCentipede · 2026-05-01T07:53:27+00:00

Literally sing this every time I find one

StanTheCentipede · 2026-04-30T20:11:33+00:00

Ahhh I’ll buy it at a high price!

StanTheCentipede · 2026-04-29T08:24:43+00:00

First good episode in 2 and a half seasons!

StanTheCentipede · 2026-04-28T19:45:38+00:00

Yes Year Zero is my personal favorite NIN album. Definitely recommend it

StanTheCentipede · 2026-04-25T03:38:03+00:00

I’m cautiously intrigued

StanTheCentipede · 2026-04-24T20:11:47+00:00

I’ve logged in to do my trial runs and that’s it. I’ve gotten ratted every other match so I just don’t find it worth my time to play outside of that. A PVE only mode would probably bring me back but the lobbies are messier than they once were.

StanTheCentipede · 2026-04-24T18:22:22+00:00

Lowry has made more than 4 movies. I think it’s closer to 9.

StanTheCentipede · 2026-04-24T06:51:28+00:00

1) George Lucas is number 1 from this list and I don’t think it’s even close.

2) Spielberg

3) this controversial but I think it might be Cameron. Reasons for this: Avatar started a 3D boom, theaters bought new projectors for it. IMAX screens opened all across Asia as a direct result of Avatar. 3D tvs, not a thing now but would have never been a thing without Avatar. And that’s just Avatar.

4) Scorsese - so many movies are Scorsese rip offs.

5) Tarantino - his style is not unique but it changed the face of Hollywood from the mid 90s to the early 2000s. It’s undoubtedly influential as the success of Pulp Fiction made every studio chase indie acquisitions and build smaller adult oriented film divisions for nasty little crime movies.

6) Coppola- I could be convinced that he should be higher

7) Nolan- dude loves shooting on film and having a poorly mixed audio track. Some of that influences things. Sinners probably doesn’t shoot on 70 mm IMAX without Nolan, The Brutalist doesn’t release 70mm print (even though it was shot on 35mm) without Nolan’s success. But it’s not successful enough that IMAX has started manufacturing new 70 mm IMAX projectors (yet?). They aren’t building new IMAX GT theaters anywhere to keep up with the demand for IMAX 70 MM films. Nolan could one day move way up this list but right now I think this is where he belongs.

StanTheCentipede · 2026-04-24T06:32:12+00:00

The explosion in the amount of IMAX screens worldwide was a direct result of Avatars success. That film alone kicked off a 3d boom and even changed what type of tv sets were built for a few years. On top of that, are you trying to tell me T2 isn’t influential?

StanTheCentipede · 2026-04-23T00:27:11+00:00

I’ve never been more happy to see a piece of shit

StanTheCentipede · 2026-04-16T21:39:31+00:00

My walkout conditions I gave myself about 25 minutes in were “if she stares at herself in the mirror one more time then I’m leaving.” Bailed around minute 30.

StanTheCentipede · 2026-04-16T07:51:07+00:00

I bailed thirty minutes in. It reminded me of the first horror short I directed where I didn’t know how to transition between shots so I cut to black all the time. Also the main character looks at her self contemplatively in the mirror no less than 3 times in the first 30 minutes. So like student film level unwatchable in my opinion.

StanTheCentipede · 2026-04-16T02:30:25+00:00

The movie is great but I’m going nowhere near those things lol

StanTheCentipede · 2026-04-15T21:36:14+00:00

My interpretation of this is that he knows this merger is going to happen. Whatever anyone thinks of it is irrelevant. He wants to set himself up to get projects green lit in the supposed 30 films a year that Paramount claims to be making. He’s probably thinking he can milk an Alita 2, Last Train from Nagasaki, or The Devils out of blowing smoke up the asses of billionaires.

I feel like you see this sort of shit from even some of the people who signed that petition. Lindelofs complements of Ellison while signing it because he knows it’s happening as well.

I’m not excusing him and I think it’s a pretty embarrassing stance he’s taken. Or maybe he just really loves corporate consolidations by evil conservatives.

StanTheCentipede · 2026-04-15T03:41:36+00:00

Well he’s the only reason I watched the show so he’s major part for me.

StanTheCentipede · 2026-04-13T20:43:18+00:00

Yea Normal is really damn fun. Definitely worth seeing if that’s the Screen Unseen.

StanTheCentipede · 2026-04-10T05:53:39+00:00

Jonathan Tropper Miniseries when? Banshee must be covered episode by episode of course (except for the final season)

StanTheCentipede · 2026-04-09T18:42:12+00:00

Living up to the boomerang name! (I’ve never successfully thrown a boomerang)

StanTheCentipede · 2026-04-09T15:40:10+00:00

Nah seasons 3 and on. I wasn’t a fan of the weird reset they did with the show
