  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    i was led to believe the first 2 are very good though

    like not just ok, actually good cinema

    no?
  • It's good blockbuster cinema, which means it's good but not good good

    Basically low to middle B's on Rotten Tomatoes

    Though to be fair, I've only seen the first, and the second one's said to be better, annoying teenage sidekick aside.

    ah
  • I'm watching a playthrough of the Cyber Chase GBA game.

    Holy crud, this one was lame too.

    Did I have anything not lame in my library besides Mario, Chain of Memories and that one Sonic Game?

    The second is pretty good, although it's funny because every new Transformers movie is a slap in the face to the themes of the second movie.

    The big thing in the second movie is that the characters decide that they aren't going to take Skynet's eventual creation as a given, and work to sabotage it instead of just taking down the T-1000 chasing them.

    It ends with the T-800 dissolving himself in a vat of molten steel while giving a triumphant thumbs up, because even though they've lost a lot, they've prevent the horrors of Skynet and the deaths of most of mankind.

    And then Skynet happens anyway in the next few movies, because fuck that.

    this is why i hate the endless sequel machine, it stops things from ever really ending in a satisfying way, they keep going until they suck so hard they cannot succeed anymore

    This is a frustrating thing to me, so i agree.

    i don't necessarily think sequels can't be good, but they shouldn't undermine what came before.
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    i don't see the problem with rebooting things, though.

    Then again, I liked Prometheus.

    Well, not in principle, anyway.

    Although I feel Prometheus's moral was to give a slap in the face to people who desired a "Alien expanded universe" or more generally, people who want meaning and ultimate answers whatsoever.
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    Is that a good thing or a bad thing?
  • I still need to see Prometheus


    relatedly, Alien is the only horror movie ive ever loved

    There's no problem in principle it's just kind of lazy and usually more of a nostalgia cash-in than anything else.

    Of course people fall for it so it'll never stop. idk

    True.

    i suppose i like the idea of things being adapted in a way that brings something new to the table while still being sensitive to the source material that made it popular in the first place.

    But this is not what 'reboot' generally implies

  • Man is a most complex simple creature: see what he weaves, and how base his reasons for doing so.
    See, you know what I think? I think I love sequels.

    Because somewhere down the line, there will be a sequel that sucks. It will suck balls.

    And now, because time travel retcons are accepted now, we can have a movie that just says; "Hey, remember that other movie that sucked balls? We agree that it sucked balls. Let's forget about it."

    A dirty word is acceptable now and we are the better for it.

    • time travel makes no sense nobody cares
    On a more positive note, the action was good, there were lots of explosions and a cool helicopter chase

    and massive props to the make up and effects team for convincingly representing the T-800 at iirc 3 different ages, that was impressively done
    To fair, the time travel aspect of it seems more like it was just a big van they used to get to actiony scenes. 
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    of course it was

    time travel is never actually a problem, it just never makes sense, either
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    well actually in this instance time travel was also an excuse for nudity

    There's also this theme from T2 about Humans are destined to destroy themselves....

    Truth of the matter is, the future Terminator movies and series only failed to account for the fact that it keeps setting up "Skynet" as the villain, It's like the Legend of Zelda franchise in that sense, Ganon didn't need to be the only villain, yet that's what they constantly did.
