Agreed, in the movie she looks really aged!
Completely agree! They cut it that way because they knew not a lot of people would watch the bore fest if it was presented accurately - a bunch of journalists sitting around talking about the burden of their profession and showing how war sucks for 109 minutes.
I thought the CGI was hit or miss. One huge miss was the one-eyed Vault Overseer; that was just ridiculous bad and looked like someone really overdid it using the Photoshop smudge tool in every scene!
How the writers might explain it is, Max caught him off guard on their first encounter. While the last episode was a planned mission, where he prepared and had the right ammo.
Yep
Agreed, very talked up as a cult classic and Stallone's best performance. But brought down by all the points you noted (boring, meandering plot, bad ending).
Agreed, it wasn't as noticeable as they were promoting it to be.
Video games are primed to take the blockbuster spot if they invest the right amount of money, time and people into it. There's great stories and plenty of IP there to mine from. Mario made over a billion dollars in 2023.
Also Omni-Man
His delivery on these was so GREAT! Thx.
I'm surprise you didn't throw Mindhunter into the mix since he's the Executive Producer, fits the genre and he's directed several episodes.
What I took away was, they weren't assigned to kill her, just beat her up and do "other indescribable things", and leave her alive to suffer and have Fassbender witness the ramifications of his failure.
Digital, pretty, but meh
Your post states "these little facts", yet some of what you stated is not facts. You mention a show without Data & Q but how can you state that as fact without watching the season when you posted this?
Picard with a robot body is admittedly weird. This is a philosophical question that was explored almost 400 years ago under the guise of "ship of Theseus". It's a paradox regarding identity over time. One version, positing a scenario in which all the parts of a ship are replaced gradually and one at a time, poses this question: Is the vessel that exists after the replacements the same ship as the vessel that existed before the replacements?
Same applies to Picard. Would he cease becoming Jean-Luc Picard after getting a tooth replaced, becoming assimilated, having all his memories transferred over to a new body? I don't think there's an absolute wrong or right answer as to this question, hence the philosophical paradox.
Speaking Latin was to distinguish between the common language at the time (French but we heard it as English) and a non-common, elite language, that was only understood by an educated class (Latin).
No, it stays about the same. If you didn't like the first half, don't expect to like the second.
No, but still worth watching.
I think we're supposed to see that Kiefer believes she's in on it, so to further the ruse, he also has that TV hacked/programmed in his room. Admittedly this is a stretch and may be giving too much credence to the writers.
Totally agree, I've never understood the appeal. In fact, I'll try to avoid reading the movie posters for animated features as I don't want to know who is voicing who, as then it's just a distraction for me and takes me out of the movie.
Please provide the source link, not seeing that confirmed anywhere.
