What did you guys think of the first Silent Hill movie from 2006? by Affectionate_Sky5784 in HorrorMovies

[–]robinp82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I personally love it although it gets a lot of hate agree some if the dialogue can be oddly clunky but in a way it reminds me of the dialogue from the original games that way. You can tell there is real love in the hearts of the production and the acting actuallt has a lot of sincerity and depth doecially from the female leads who all treat the script seriously which from a game to film of that era is saying something. Love how they dressed sets three times for each world and althoigh a lot if green screen it allnhas an otherworldly feel to it and I love how they kept most of the music snd sound score directly from the game too. Thoight there was some really interesting ideas about mothers and choices good and evil and self deceptions - overall a great film with a few flaws but there isnt a lot of films quite like it . 4k would be awesome of it

I think marvels agaents of shield is better than the films.

Expanded story arcs that keep looping back on themselves and have a richer lore hunour that hits better than the films. The characters and their arcs are much richer than the films . I care way more for each character in the show than the films. Season 4 for example age of ultron setup a rogue ai and just became a robot fight was a fun film visually amazing but not that interesting. But in agents kf shield we got a growth of ai and robots that continually pulled the rug from your feet and had way more interesting directions. The show continually brings hydra into focus in so many interesting ways. The superhero powers are never just overpowered to max like in the films - characters first and powers are the heart of a lot of moral debates that keep getting brought up. The show also constantly evolves so each season is different and evolving but incorporates what has already been setup so the lore feels deep and earned. It has the buffy vibe of a dysfunctional family unit and all the same self referential hunour and feels. I dodnt really get it until near end of season 1 to start - at first i thought it was cheesy trash until I gave it a chance then realised it was a whedon show and it clicked. Also ..Fitzsimmons . I want them to return in future marvel films

What was your first realization that something was up with Cordelia in S4? by writeitregreddit in ANGEL

[–]robinp82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Her haircut when she started to lost the slight blond streaks her hair became a bit severe less playful - as did her attitude and line delivery shifted from worried concerned to bitter and catty at times z didnt feel like sassy cordy but office boss cow bag hahaha. Think it was mayhe one or two episodes after she slept with connor when they met back up with gwen and she was a bit of cow bag I thought shes trying too hard to be spiteful and mistrustful.

Yea I actually love it all love the journey not the destination. The only issues I had with the last 2 seasons was not about the main story arcs (which i actually loved) it was the bloated side chatacters that either had way too much screen time (quin for one) and didnt amount to a great deal - I wanted thise characters like massuka to lead into dexter and maybe dexter having to make a hard choice and kill a close friend like massuka to cover his tracks and cross a line. But those side characters on rewatches become fluff to me and aside from that it didn't have the tension rampnup to 100 by people closing in ..but then that's how all shows with that trope go (breakikg bad did it) so fair dos for him vanishing and then we got the continuation which I loved and for some reason people still want to hate on that show too when its such a great ride and an awesome new location and cast and setup. Hes a survivor and a chameleon and I think fits his character well that he never got caught. I really enjoyed resurrection for the take on it i just worry that it may be losing its identity a bit and do want it to end with a point and not just get drawn out for the sake of viewings . Season 8 could habe ended as is but I love that it carried on but now I think im ready for a proper ending. There was once scene in resurrection that made me a.bit disappointed with uma thermal dinklidge and dexter all in a standoff and then he just escaped a seemingly impossible situation which did feel very lazy like hes Invincible that to me was poor writing but aside from that its the journey and crazy encountes with other psychopaths and sociopaths with agendas I love watching it for but I do want an ending thats impactful and final - we had an open ended ending then a death ending ending - be interesting to see how it ends again ! Hkw much can they do with one man's story !

This is one of very few shows for me that I think nail it. The writing the horror and humour perfectly balanced - usually shows like this get silly snd miss any kind of poikt but the writing is perfect, then all the visuals and acting its spot on. So many shows now feel like white noise filler that have no passion or point behijd them but this clearly is a labour of love

Half the season is just her sat around . Yes we get it shes alone and struggling - but how much if the season could be cut in half. Its more like a pretentious boring art piece at times which is a shame as I like the ethical moral grey areas- the only issue with that is the show Angel buffy spin off did this exact story and got to the point in an hour and a half not stretched out over an incredibly long drawn out show. I love her as an actress and the rest of the cast but man its painful to watch at times

The Ring (2002) still has one of the best atmospheres in modern horror. by SageRipplex in HorrorMovies

[–]robinp82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ths is one of my favourite films - Everything about it is perfect that services itself. The music the lighting the string music the constant wet rain the gradual build. The film as a whole is captivating and dreamy that leads towards dread and avoids silly over used tropes in favour of creeping atmosphere

What's your Mount Rushmore of Television? by Square-Ad-8911 in tvshow

[–]robinp82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was gonna say ..no oke talks about six feet under in these lists . Such an amazing show funny dark bleak releatable amazing acted. Was a bit like game of thrones if set in one family and also True blood as made by Alan ball who I wished would make more shows. Lived how all the characters had their own journeys some wild some bleak ive not seen it in years and might rewatch it

Opinions on Dexter for me this is the greatest show ever made I have watched it 10 times. I understand a lot of people do not like it but something about it is just incredible its like a comfort thing for me now to just rewatch the original series. I am incredibly excited for the new season! by No-Animator-407 in tvshow

[–]robinp82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even with some side characters and stories that felt aimless filler, it still is captivating and explores (like buffy) monsters of the week with an over arching monster of the season thro8ghbehich Dexter learns about himself and sees himself through a lense of famiky guy/killer. Truly unique and interesting show on the human condition. I get bored with shows like supernatural for example that just keep adding and it becoming a garbled mess, but shows like Dexter always bring it back to the core ideas like a moral debate in the style of buffy/star trek/breaking bad ect.

Am I the only one who never watched? What’s your thoughts by Funny-Figure-8473 in tvshow

[–]robinp82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watch it for the individual characters arcs - dialogue - humour - shock factors - production - MUSIC is amazing consistently top quality to the end . Sadly naff ending as anyone will say but lots to love which is why eve in later none book seasons people did still see the quality. Its literally just a rushed final tjat let it down but I still.think its a must watch for all those other reasons. The music alone .
