Quote from: indianasmith on April 12, 2026, 06:38:42 PMI don't know how to do any of this AI stuff, but could one of you please do a poster for
EXPLODING COWS FROM MARS?



If you have a windows 11 computer, you have CoPilot (it's also available for Windows 10). I just asked it "make me a poster for the fake movie 'Exploding Cows from Mars'" You can customize your request with specific styles or items you want included on the poster.

Best classical release I've heard this year so far.

Quote from: Dr. Whom on April 13, 2026, 01:23:10 AMThe Capsule (2012)

Six girls arrive in bizarre ways at a convent-like institution where they are trained by a seventh, who may or may not be a vampire

It turns the bizarre and the weird up to eleven from the first minute, in a way that reminded me Lanthimos.

Surprised I hadn't heard of it, but then I saw it was a short.

NIGHT OF THE KINGS (2020): A young man is sent to a maximum security prison in the Ivory Coast, where he finds himself anointed "storyteller" in a bizarre inmate ritual. With the cellblock ruled over like a fiefdom by the dying Lord Blackbeard, it's a fascinating creation of a unique penal subculture, with the story-within-a-story echoing "Arabian Nights." Quality-wise it's likely a 4.5/5, but it didn't really stick with me so... 4/5. Best movie I've seen from Ivory Coast.

The 11 "resolution" is lifted directly from Frank Miller's DAREDEVIL Issue #190. Ah well, steal from the best.

I agree that the action undelivered but oddly the final 25 minutes of sentimental goodbyes was my favorite part of the season. I'm not a big fan of lengthy, laborious "sentimental goodbyes" at the end of high-conflict fantasy/action/adventure et al, but somehow the Duffers handled it well. (I wasn't going to be at all happy if Steve or Dustin or Max sacrificed themselves so I can't complain about their lengthy send-offs.)

A recreation of a conversation with my brother-in-law:

BRENT: It just went on forever. Just everyone being sad and saying goodbye to each other. Way too long.

ME: I get your point... similar issue to the end of the last LORD OF THE RINGS movie... forty-five minutes of unnecessary tearful homoerotic gazing...

BRENT: (Baffled look.) What are you talking about? That was awesome!

JOURNEY TO THE FAR SIDE OF THE SUN isn't very good... there are interesting moments but it definitely isn't a horror movie. ALIEN COVENANT, whatever its faults, wouldn't have been improved by an Anderson/Parrish version!
