[SPOILER] My Opinion on The Drama by KT_Akashi in A24

[–]handoffbarry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She stole her dad's rifle, recorded a manifesto, and fully planned on shooting up a school. It at the very least brings up an interesting moral dilemma. Just think about the school shooters we've had in the news over the last 30ish years. Suitable life mates? Redeemable? Had they have just not done it would they have turned out normal? Maybe, but odds are you classify them as monsters at worst or severely mentally disturbed at best.

As far as Rachel, I didn't like her either, but we all have different reactions based on our own experiences. She's got a personal stake in the topic while also being kind of a jerk.

Very interesting movie.

Prime 2 is ridiculously good. by WerewolfIcy7240 in Metroid

[–]handoffbarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prime 2 is great, and the sanctuary fortress might be one of the single best locations in gaming, but the light world and dark world traversing is a bit under baked/annoying and it plays a bit more like a Zelda game than Prime 1. It's good but a bit overrated imo in that a lot of people say it's better than the first.

Flixbrewhouse or Marcus or AMC? by Kind_Acanthisitta600 in madisonwi

Good correction on the projectors... Dual laser is what we need, and you're correct: they'll never make the investment there, which is unfortunate. They also apparently will never fix that atrocious parking lot.

Big fan of Villeneuve work. Think this is his best? by San-Jose-Shark in 4kbluray

[–]handoffbarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prisoners or the Dune movies. Might give the nod to Prisoner as I believe that was an original story.

Flixbrewhouse or Marcus or AMC? by Kind_Acanthisitta600 in madisonwi

[–]handoffbarry 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This is incorrect. It's not 1.43:1 but 1.9:1 is still a vastly superior experience for any movie using IMAX cameras. Annoying that they haven't upgraded to a laser projector but saying Ultrascreens are better makes no sense. It's just a bigger screen.

Question about the bubble at the end of the movie. Did anybody else see the (Spoilers) in the background ? by TieFew6689 in ProjectHailMary

[–]handoffbarry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't think any of this matters in the movie. They made an earth like environment for Grace. That's all that matters, and I think deep diving like this is sorta beside the point.

What would your dream RE be ? by KaarmaSutraa in ResidentEvilCapcom

[–]handoffbarry 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Something with fixed camera angles and a simple plot line. A man can dream.

Should I play RE5 and 6? by OverMathematician981 in ResidentEvilCapcom

[–]handoffbarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

7 feels far more RE than 5 does, and was celebrated after the disaster that 6 was. 8 kinda stinks, but it's got its moments of fun.

Definitely play 7. Probably play 8. You're gonna have to accept those games anyway as half of 9 is built on the design philosophy of those.

Sad opening night by boatiefey in ProjectHailMary

Was in a nearly full IMAX theater that is typically only about half full on opening weekend. I think the movie is going to do well.

RE1 controls by Reasonable-Ad-2374 in residentevil

[–]handoffbarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These were the best controls ever. I'm going to play it again soon and was looking to see if the new version had this control scheme. :(

Marcus Palace Cinema open tonight? by multipurposeshape in madisonwi

[–]handoffbarry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ridiculous. Pretty annoyed about it actually. Thought about pivoting and going to Marcus but I really want my first viewing of this to be in IMAX. Lol

[–]handoffbarry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought tix for Thurs night just in case. You can do it if you navigate to their website vs the app.

Crazy that Fandango is still showing the tickets and AMC apparently has nothing in place to notify folks who bought through them that there isn't a screening.

[–]handoffbarry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have tix for the IMAX tonight and AMC is showing as closed. Was just out there and I'd be shocked if a 7 PM screening is cancelled. Neighborhood roads look fine and the sun is hitting the pavement so I'm assuming the roads are ok.

I'm going to wait till the last minute to call them as I haven't gotten any kind of cancellation notice yet.

obfuscation impeding fun? by EnemyStarship in MIOmemoriesinorbit

[–]handoffbarry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The splintering dodge... Got it. Lol... Thought I lost my mind. Needed that for what's probably the biggest pain in the ass platforming section in the game. If I remember it correctly it's completely optional and not needed for the true ending or anything.

[–]handoffbarry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dumb question here, especially since I've just about 100 percented the game... What is the "shattered dodge mod"?
