They are hit-and-miss, but the original Matrix, V for Vendetta, Sense8, Cloud Atlas and Bound are actually good. Assassins, their first filmed script, is also not bad in a 90s action movie way.

Eh, it’s alright for what it is. It’s a sequel that’s mostly enjoyable and entertaining. And feels like classic Burton through and through. Catherine O’Hara and Michael Keaton are also obviously having a lot of fun.
The original script for the Matrix had the machines use human brains for data processing, but the Wachowskis were told by the studio to simplify it.
Oh, didn’t know the one with no color in peripheral vision, that’s fun!
I mean we hear the sound of our blood rushing through the veins of our ears at all times, but our brain filters it out. That the “sound of the ocean” you hear when listening into a conch, it just amplifies the bloodwaves. Other fun stuff our brain does: Our eyes are actually perceiving the world upside down and with a blind spot right in the middle.
And this is why good people who got rich don’t stay rich and people who do are usually selfish assholes. Elon Musk bought Twitter for 44 billion, he could have literally built hundreds of amusement parks for disabled people with the same money. Or do literally a thousand other things to make life for other people better. Instead he bought a toxic social media platform to make it even more toxic.
So, once again, the dinosaurs in this franchise continuation called Jurassic World are confined in this one geographical location. I wonder if there’s a word for that, something starting with “P” perhaps.
Also the story sounds like the most generic bullshit ever.
Haven’t read it, but it’s about an apocalyptic scenario where normal people turn into absolute psychopaths. The Asian movie The Sadness has a similar premise.
Fun fact, Christopher Lee dubbed himself in the German version since he spoke fluent German (also French and Italian).
Can it be soundproof as well?
Damn, I can’t wait for Control 2. I loved Alan Wake 2, but Control was even better IMO.
Probably a camera of some sort.
This movie was so far ahead of it’s time. It’s would have played so much different today with an audience literate in superhero tropes.
Just compare Captain Amazing to Homelander, they’re basically the same character.
Translation: Hey! Hey, media! I’m saying random shit! Hey! You love that, don’t you?! Look at me! Look! Don’t look at Kamala, she’s boring! Look at me! Meeeee!!!
What if all intelligent life that evolved somewhere else are giant single cell organisms colonizing entire planets and they are horrified by the weird way evolution took here.
In the same vein, sharks are older than trees.
So, I’m from East Germany and was still a small child when the wall came down. When I went to West Berlin for the first time in my life with my parents just days after the borders were opened we went into a big shopping mall. There I was flabbergasted at the variety of sheer stuff to buy and just stood there with an open mouth. An older woman saw me, approached me and asked me if I was “from the East”. I could only nod looking up at her. Then she gave me twenty D-Mark and told me to buy something nice for myself.
I mean, your bed is home to tens of thousands of microscopic bugs as well. I’d rather not smell them.
There it is, the long lost city of Atlanta!
