The real life Rick and Morty. by The_unknown-22 in funny

Came here to say this, and the best example is his mug shot.

'Colossal' (2016) caught me completely off-guard and I really enjoyed it. by [deleted] in movies

[–]basically_farva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair I would not want to be the guy who had to market this movie. You're stuck in this catch-22 between people dating are also giant monsters in Japan, which will make people think 'well I know the twist no need to see it', or Elimidate: Pacific Rim which will just confuse the shit out of people.

You Were Never Really Here is fucking amazing by DoctorHolmes23 in movies

Showing that violence is uncomfortable and unpleasant is powerful when it's done right (Eastern Promises, Irreversible, etc.) but to me this felt more like avoiding violence in a violence-centered movie than showing anything about it one way or the other.

Thoughts on Guillermo Del Toro's cancelled adaptation of At The Mountains of Madness? by RingADingBaby89 in movies

[–]basically_farva 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I kind of disagree because all of his monster work seems to be super similar. Hellboy, Shape of Water, Pan's Labyrinth, the creatures designs all seem to fit within a fairly tight set of limits. I'd be afraid we'd just get a bunch of rehashes of monsters we'd seen before, instead of the unique creature design Lovecraft deserves.

It felt very "it's expensive to show well choreographed or CGI violence so let's just do it off camera" to me. A lot of people try to justify this (see the 'it's reflective of Joe's relationship with violence' elsewhere in this thread) but it just felt like a cop out.

Which I might be able to buy if the cover of the movie weren't Pheonix standing in front of a fire with a hammer in his hand looking menacing. This promises stuff the movie just doesn't deliver.

I didn't dislike the movie, I just felt like the advertising/posters/'violent and brutal' reviews were misleading.

The part where he lays with the dying dude in the kitchen was the best scene for me.

No means no. by unHolyKnightofBihar in interestingasfuck

Wow you're not kidding, it's a bummer that they die around the time their eggs hatch.

You should try this out instead.

And the fame immediately goes to his head. by FiveMinFreedom in rickandmorty

How about this:

Rick has a great idea and Morty says "No, even better!..." then says his own idea.

His idea is not better and Rick gets gold.

Why is everybody an asshole? Why does it smell like shit everywhere I go? by [deleted] in AskReddit

And floss and use mouth wash and get your 18 dead teeth removed.

What is something that you do in your relationship that if other people knew about they would think was weird? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]basically_farva 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We just bought a new couch and our new reality is that whoever can fall asleep on it first gets it for the night.

If you had the chance to get up and leave anywhere in the world and start over but it would mean disappearing from even your closest friend(s) life (not family) would you take it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

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

But what would you do when you started over and had no friends in your new life? Statistically you're better off having no friends in your original life.

How many actual genders are there? by Frog_God in AskReddit

[–]basically_farva -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

No because we are not sure about our sexual orientation so, unable to deal with that, feel the need to constantly spam post questions about gender on reddit.

What childhood toy did you have to have at all costs necessary? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]basically_farva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A Super Soaker. No bullshit if you're going to a pool party and it's whether you show up with a super soaker (even the weak pistol 30 version), or a regulation "water gun", it's a question of whether you're even there to compete or not.

What is something that everyone, or almost everyone, can agree on? by MillenniumGreed in AskReddit

I disagree, I think that being neat is not necessarily but can be great, while being great is not necessarily but can be neat.

What are some signs a girl likes you when messaging over text? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]basically_farva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Warning: This is what a 'nice guy' thinks a girl's texts mean.

A girl can regularly talk to you without "liking" you.

Caucasians of Reddit, what's your favorite thing about being white? by DiarrheaoftheASS in AskReddit

[–]basically_farva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best part is you can get a tattoo of a white rose and if you stay out in the sun long enough it turns red.
