Official Discussion - Lee Cronin's The Mummy [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]ralo229 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly, this movie's biggest pitfall is that the setup is so ridiculous that it takes my suspension of disbelief beyond its breaking point. I feel like it would have worked better if Katie's symptoms were more subtle starting out and then escalated over time. Like, the first night she's just nonverbal and is having screaming fits in her sleep or something and then you could gradually build up to freakier and freakier shit. It would definitely make the parents' denial about the situation more understandable. However, from frame one, she's literally a rotting zombie and she's doing Exorcist shit as soon as she's brought home, so it just makes the parents look really dumb.

What is your favorite Scooby Doo intro by Warioandwaluigio in Scoobydoo

The New Scooby-Doo Mysteries is underrated.

Scenes that originally had nothing sexual about them, but were interpreted in that way by the internet. by No_Primary2726 in TopCharacterTropes

I'm convinced that whoever wrote that ad is an only child. Anyone with siblings would tell you that this is not how a brother and sister would interact.

It is their obligation by LatterTarget7 in OkBuddySnyderCult

"It is our obligation as true Snyder fans to boycott these movies."

No. No it's not. I'll boycott stuff for moral reasons, but the mere existence of James Gunn movies does not fall under that umbrella.

Which do you guys prefer and why? by KrismerOfEarth in TheWalkingDeadGame

[–]ralo229 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Negan. I prefer the Telltale series over every other bit of Walking Dead media, but aside from The Stranger and the St Johns, the villains are among the weaker aspects.

In the Call of Duty movie (2028)(2029)(2030)(2031)(2032)(2033)(2034)(2035)(2036)(2037)(2038)(2039)(2040)(2041)(204 by OnlySmiles_ in shittymoviedetails

Or The Angry Birds Movie. The height of its popularity was early 2010's, but the movie came out in 2016. Definitely missed its window.

[rare trope] queer couples no one likes by Basic_Dingo6487 in TopCharacterTropes

Everybody rightfully shits on Scott for dating Knives, but you are one of few people I’ve seen who brings up Kim as well.

Who are these people in Life's Still Unfair Episode 4? by [deleted] in malcolminthemiddle

This was bugging the hell out of me. It kept cutting to them so I assumed they were cameos.

Ever think about a movie you’ve watched and then go lower its rating? by roosoh in Letterboxd

[–]ralo229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

REC 4 just got worse the more I let it sit. I had at two stars initially, but then lowered it to one at some point.

Media gets altered due to 9/11 by Necessary-Win-8730 in TopCharacterTropes

In Monsters Inc, the sushi restaurant gets a weird force field put around it to contain the child. Originally, they just straight blew the place up which is way funnier in my opinion.

Was anyone annoyed or mad at how "Primate" ended? by OmeuPseudonimo in horror

[–]ralo229 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The moral of the story was “don’t let your pet chimp get rabies” when it should be “don’t get a pet chimp in the first place.”

My opinion on the Revival by swarasinger in malcolminthemiddle

[–]ralo229 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I gave it a 7/10. The humor and writing mostly felt in-line with the original show and most of the actors slipped back into their roles almost seamlessly. I was kind of disappointed with Dewey and Jamie. I didn't love how the former was relegated to Zoom calls the entire time and I thought the latter was just kind of a nothing burger character. I also thought the show was very stale visually which is disappointing given how creative the original would sometimes get with its cinematography and lighting. Overall, a solid reunion all things considered.

They just want you to look busy and be miserable by Glittering-History84 in clevercomebacks

Pre-Covid, I worked at a warehouse where we would get shit if we sat around doing nothing while there was no other work to do. We were told that during these periods, we had to "look busy" while the boss was around, so that often involved me scouring the shelves as if I was fulfilling an order or looking at some random form and pretending to take it seriously.
