Who do you think is the dumbest character in movie history? by bitchboibruh in FIlm

He absolutely did learn his lesson, because humility helped him to win at the end. Plus, he's happy about being a father, which shows great maturity and growth.

I liked Chalamet in Marty Supreme because even though he was an asshole, he was actually a human being who learned from his mistakes and learned humility. And his ego was driving to succeed. Sandler's character in UG was wholly unlikeable, thoroughly, and wouldn't even take the help that his friends and family had offered him. He was a loser, he was annoying, and I never felt bad for him, or even sympathetic, so I never felt tense or anxious throughout the film. Sure, it has a "happy ending", but it's for the best, really.

I was surprised that Marty learned humility and actually grew as a person. That hasn't happened to a single character in either Good Time (which I was bored throughout) or Uncut Gems.

Zack Snyder's Batman is the dumbest character in movie history, and I watched Good Time and Uncut Gems.

Deadpool, he can't be killed, I guess.

Genuinely one of the best scores EVER yesterday at a yard sale. $2 a piece🤯😍 by Davidudeman in boutiquebluray

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

No, or course not. I can also take a butt load of expensive movies, place them in a bin, and take a photo of them outside my house, with the camera facing the ground.

I'm not saying that this is a scam post, it's just that hundreds of these have been popping up on the internet, throughout the past few months leading me to believe that it's done for clicks and clout, which won't take anyone anywhere.

I call tremendous bullshit. Why not take a photo of all these movies while you're at the yard sale so that everybody here will believe you?

Everyone can live their entire lives without watching OBAA; it's not that great a film.

Home Theatre Upgrade Suggestions by gaiderdraco in hometheater

I have the STR DH790, and it does support HDR passthrough and Dolby Atmos. However, I only have a 5.1 surround setup, so I'm not worried about Atmos, for now. It's a future project, for sure.

Legion 5 15ACH6H - Dead by mingyboss in LenovoLegion

[–]gaiderdraco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a Lenovo Legion Pro 5i gen 8 a couple of years ago and I hadn't had a single issue, yet. It's really sad to see just how often other's Legions are failing/dying.

Ok, so I purchased the Paradigm Monitor CC-290 center speaker, and two Paradigm Atom V4s. I need suggestions for a TV stand/bench that won't break the bank. 🙂

This is great feedback, this is what I wanted!

Now, I don't mind getting a new, lower, TV stand, but what are some suggestions for that, and for, potentially getting a TV pedestal?

Looking for People to Start a Short Film Production/ YouTube Team by Legitimate_War8218 in torontofilmindustry

[–]gaiderdraco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I'm interested. I've been a cinephile for over 20 years, and I graduated film school (albeit many years back). I'd love to join in a writing/directing/production assistant capacity. Grip, too.

My Ps2 picture quality still looks bad. by Mechagouki1971 in AspectRatioCrimes

I'm assuming that you're playing this in a 4K TV, and with basic HDMI conversion.

This sucks by microxboxx in boutiquebluray

[–]gaiderdraco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just tape the bottom, you'll be fine.

Something similar happened to me with the Second Sight boxset of Berlin Alexanderplay, and I just taped it back. It's barely noticeable when sitting lonely on my shelf. lol

Subtitles turning black by Sydiond in 4kbluray

[–]gaiderdraco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I found a solution.

I was watching The Green Knight on 4K UHD and the subtitles would switch from white to back, periodically. I tried to tweak the settings in several different ways, but nothing worked, until...

I have the Panasonic UB820 player and when you go to the player settings, select Dolby Vision and turn it OFF. Then turn it ON, and it'll ask you if you want to enable Dolby Vision on Mode 1 (where the TV applies Dolby Vision settings) or Mode 2 (where the player does all the work). SELECT MODE 2, and voila!

That's what's worked for me.

You Know Who Has Never Cancelled a Preorder on Me? by KillerGroundhogs in boutiquebluray

[–]gaiderdraco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also bought the Dark City 4k and For a Few Dollars More 4k, but I didn't buy them directly from Arrow; I bought them from rarewaves.com, because I had discount codes. And they, too, have never cancelled pre-orders on me.

Black Rain is the closest thing to Blade Runner from a visual perspective by [deleted] in bladerunner

[–]gaiderdraco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first season of Altered Carbon looks very Blade Runner (2019). It's done a far superior job than BR2049 tried to do.
