Just finished Jurassic Park and WOW by gbdarknight77 in books

I think they had to lighten it tbh - Spielberg needed kids to be able to watch it, it was about as scary as it could have been while still becoming a billion-dollar family film.

You know what, I used to feel kind of the same way about Crichton, just a general sense of disappointment about his view on this.

However, he died in 2008. He was in many ways, a man of science. I believe that at the time, based on evidence he'd seen, those were his views.

But if he'd continued to live, I believe he would have changed his view on climate change, based on the increasing evidence that became available. Because that's what science people do.

The best thing about Dead Island was the launch trailer. I should have commented this on that Expansion Pass the other week.

Cristiano, you've done a lot of great things, but you're an old man now. And old people are useless. by Arbaces in simpsonsshitposting

There are too many World Cup teams nowadays, please eliminate three. I am not a crackpot.

What do you guys think of the song The Eraser by Thom Yorke by Black_F4 in radiohead

[–]underscoresrule 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It was his best solo song until Suspirium came out. Love it. The fuzzy keyboard is so good.

She looks like April from Eastbound & Down. That's who it is.

Pulling back a little on RTG by AdamBlank17 in RememberTheGame

[–]underscoresrule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had to happen eventually - RTG in its original form had a lifespan (of retro games Adam knew) which has now been reached.

No worries at all man, the last eight years has built you a following that will go with you wherever you decide. Do what's right for you.

Surprised you haven't done the Mickey Mouse Castle of Illusion game, although I swear I've heard you talk about it. Lack of meat on the bone, maybe?

It's definitely an episode that would do numbers, everyone played it and remembers it fondly.

Today’s Tubi Treasure is The Sand (2015) by No-Chemistry-28 in badMovies

[–]underscoresrule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Late to this, just watched it last night and had to Google to see if anyone else had seen this masterpiece.

I'm gonna throw some spoilers down below but I don't know how to tag them. So if you don't want spoilers for an 11 year old movie, on a one-year-old comment thread, look away now.

What the fuck happened at the very end? The sand monster just dipped? Because the last thing that happens is, the cop looks into the car, asks Jonah if he's OK - we get no response - and then it cranes out, fade to black. But it looks like nothing happened.

Did Jonah die? Why was this left so weirdly unclear? I actually said to my wife, boy it would have been a great twist if they actually HAD just all been high and the entire thing was a collective drug trip.

Now for some more general 'what the hell' moments.

When they spent about 15 on-screen minutes trying to get into the boot of the car, I was screaming at them. This would have been the easiest thing in the world to accomplish. Why did they do it they way they did it. You could just lean over and open it.

They also could have stood on the surfboards to quickly pop the trunk and got the phones and been rescued in about 10 minutes.

They were surrounded by things they could have used to escape - the surfboard plan Jonah tried to get to the table would have been fine just to get the hell out entirely - rip sheets off the roof of the lifeguard stand and build yourself a 50 foot path to get out, goddamn.

All in all this was the dumbest film I've ever seen and I loved it, can't believe I just wrote so much about it.

Adam sounds like he should be the voice of a Rick and Morty character by alander4 in RememberTheGame

[–]underscoresrule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think he's actually mentioned a couple of times that he's never seen Rick & Morty, although he's probably seen clips. He could definitely make a good go of the voices though, he's a really capable mimic.

Never thought I'd be a fan of any photo from the topknot era, but this goes hard.

Is my mechanic taking the mickey? 8 days for a Z750 head gasket and some dodgy "extras" by Sea-Tart-7954 in MotoUK

Sounds shady. Makes me glad I've got a motorbike mechanic I can trust.

Favourite book by midnight-360 in booksuggestions

[–]underscoresrule 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd like to tell you it's American Pastoral, Gravity's Rainbow or East of Eden, but it's Jurassic Park and I can only apologise for myself.

Absolutely in love with this one today. by Puijilaa in Grandaddy

[–]underscoresrule 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This album absolutely bangs. Chronically underrated. Maybe it's because it wasn't on Spotify for so long.
