"If you're the sort of person who likes movies that you don't like, you're gonna love this movie."
- Brian Finifter, joking about Upstream Color
I don't think Brian had seen the movie when he said this, and I don't know if he's seen it since - he was actually just kidding, I think. But it occurs to me is a fairly trenchant observation about the different types of enjoyment people get out of films.
What's crazy is I don't even give a shit about the retcon stuff.
Like, I could pretend to, but I don't. I'll leave that to either Brian or Paul, depending on the tone of the Disney-related conversation we're having at the time.
But my god. Consider this my foreshadowing for the commentary. "Fridge-Emotion." That fucking movie.
I will strike down with great vengeance and furious anger upon those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers by saying good things about Saving Mr. Banks.
That movie shall be the bellwether example of a new term, "fridge emotion," and that's before we even start in about it being a forgery of history.
Stylebot is great for Film Crit Hulk. Setting the type style globally on a page is a gift from god, it turns out, because one of the best film critics working today has decided that all-caps is fun.*
(*yes I get why he does it but I am now installing chrome extensions just to read him)
Buh-boom.
Come at us, bro.
Thaaaaaat's awesome.
If you liked the doc, you really seriously stop fucking around need to hop on Amazon and buy his coffee table book.
Buy two, actually. One just to cut up and frame half the pages of. Seriously, there's a shit ton of full-page prints of his final posters, and they're all the same size. You could do a really nice "framed set" thing for the price of the book and a few cheap frames.
It's just scene headings.
VFX: Something funny I don't know you write the punchline god
It's a trap.
I'm with Doc.
It was pointed out to me by our own Alex Ruger that the score to Gravity is pure sex, so I'm randomly pulling for that one in the score category.
Well, not so randomly. I was actually kind of pissed at the Banks score, and that's the only other movie on that list I've seen.
Anyway. We'll be doing our Oscar poll again this year, as per usual, starting here in the next few days.
I remember Yoda Stories.
That was a lot of fun.
I like Owen's scary acting.
I think Invid got hacked, you guys.
Only, for Trey.
The audio is hot.
I am ashamed.
HOORAY YOU GUYS MICHAEL IS HERE
Wow, you sold me with one sentence. I didn't think that was possible. Smoking gloves is some classy shit.

Dude, she got Pi and Phi mixed up!
(I will absolutely take your joke and make a joke about it.) (Absolutely.)
I... was talking about Sean Connery, and my ongoing mental self-argument about how to deal with the "art vs. artist" issue in general. Not trying to conflate Shia with Wagner.
For the record.
Although that'd be an interesting tack to avoid Godwin.
