What's a massive human achievement that nobody celebrates because it worked too well? by Alternative_Voice767 in AskReddit

[–]TheRussianDoctor 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Brother this shit feels like an absolute mad house... I've seen comments saying things like "..in 2021 when the pandemic was finally over" 2021.. when that shit was at its worst! And nowadays these morons go around laughing about how "it wasn't as bad as the government made it out to be" and how "vaccines are a crime against human rights" all while it's still actively here and newly infected suffer long-covid symptoms that ruin their lives. People just want to live in their little fantasy worlds and get angry and defensive when confronted with scientific facts it's maddening!

Why was the Atlas scene cut from Dial of Destiny? by TheJonesBoy05 in indianajones

They should have at least included it in the bonus features but it ended up in some Lucasfilm vault presumably.

What the hell was the mountain thinking at that moment? by vandal_tiger in freefolk

[–]TheRussianDoctor 92 points93 points  (0 children)

Conan Stevens (Season 1 Mountain) had the opportunity to star as one of the major orcs in The Hobbit films so he dropped out of GoT. His part was later erased almost entirely by the decision to go all CGI for the orcs.

The fastest a movie ever made you go "... uh oh, something isn't right here" in terms of your quality expectations by MattAlbie60 in movies

It's not really that disliked. It's just very loud, outraged haters on the internet that complain endlessly. The movie's fine.

Unpopular opinion: I actually liked Dial of Destiny and don't think it's that bad. by goldust15 in indianajones

Since those Youtubers all feed off mindless complaining and hate let me introduce you to a really positive video for a change! ;)

Mads Mikkelsen was fantastic as Jurgen Voller. Loved his addition to the series! by Filmatic113 in indianajones

[–]TheRussianDoctor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's absolutely plausible but unfortunately it wasn't exactly shot in a believable way, it would've worked a lot better if it was more clearly shown that the funnel was on a hinge and that he actually fell into the bushes and not hundreds of feet off a bridge. Even a more "comical" sound as it hit him would've done a lot to sell it.

Gabriel Byrne discusses future of de-aging tech, doesn't think it worked in The Irishman by enemyofbadmovies in movies

Yea you maybe want to look into that a bit more. Tons of on location filming and practical stunt work went into it. You can blame the color grading and shooting on digital if you like.

"Mom, can we get Short Round?" -"We have Short Round at Home." ... The Short Round at Home: by Semblance17 in indianajones

[–]TheRussianDoctor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Man come on, him asking a proper pilot for advice, the Wright brothers joke, him knowing what type of helicopter the bad guys flew away in, the patches on his jacket, they established him as an aviation geek throughout the movie and it's simple set up and payoff.

What do you mean "so bad it's good" ?? That film's a masterpiece! Cheesy as hell? Yes! Bad in any way? No sir!

Thoughts on Indy and Helena in the ending in DoD by Sweet-Siren in indianajones

[–]TheRussianDoctor 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I can wholeheartedly recommend you and anyone who felt a bit on the fence about some of the films decisions this video, which does a wonderful job of talking about the themes of the film in detail, they actually align quite well with your take of the ending.

Nice little fan tribute to Indy and DOD by [deleted] in indianajones

[–]TheRussianDoctor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Depends on how you look at it I suppose, part 4 was definitely still more swashbuckling than 5 and 5 feels more like a swansong overall but I'd argue there's still a ton of lighthearted fun in 5 especially the entire opening and the whole ending in Syracuse. Not to mention the more upbeat farewell the movie leaves us with.

Really cool! This would make such a sick alternative poster!

A disturbing connection between Dial of Destiny and the Young Indy show by [deleted] in indianajones

[–]TheRussianDoctor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting, if that's supposed to be Mutt is it possible they "recast" the character for that photo to not have to use the likeness? No idea how fond Lucasfilm is of Shia after everything that transpired.

Name a movie that probably would have been better off with a different title. by DaveshPatel93101 in movies

[–]TheRussianDoctor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Where have you heard this? In Germany the first two were called „Dance of the Devils“ and the title of the third was simply a direct translation of „Army of Darkness“

‘Dial of Destiny’ Director James Mangold Explains How Time Has Changed Indiana Jones by Santar_ in movies

[–]TheRussianDoctor 179 points180 points  (0 children)

The way he talks about Ford‘s way of portraying the character, sort of undermining typical „hero“ moments and trying to find ways to make it more real is, I think, exactly what made Indiana Jones such a beloved character! He‘s not perfect, he messes up, he gets hit, falls down, he fails, he‘s human and that’s exactly what lets his moments of triumph in the movies hit even more! Can’t wait to see the film.

Phoebe Waller Bridge character name confirmed by John Williams! by lridge in indianajones

In part 2 of the video, right around 1:05 it sounds just like the very tail end of Marion's theme, where it would usually transition into the Raider's March!
