Good Movies / Re: Recent theatrical viewings
Last post by Rev. Powell - August 05, 2026, 08:28:08 AMSPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY: Spider-Man fights a bad guy while dealing with unruly arachnid DNA, mooning over his amnesiac girlfriend, hosting cameos from other IPs, and gliding over plot holes. Entertaining enough exploitation of the usual Marvel formula, although adults might feel guilty about not spending time on something more substantial. It's an average Marvel movie. The excitement in some quarters over this is baffling, and even a little annoying, to me. A few people actually applauded at the end. WTF, I don't get it, I've seen much better movies this year that garnered zero applause from the crowd. Maybe some people are upset that Marvel is no longer releasing two of these a week? 3/5.

We need to do 23 more titles and have 58 years to work with, seems easy. (Also, the next post should begin movies depicting events from during my lifetime).

Last post by Rev. Powell - August 05, 2026, 08:09:44 AMAnd they send us the pre-ordered box set sometime in December. That's what matters to me. I won't be watching the episodes as the debut, I'm going to use that Best Friends sub to watch stuff I don't already own. So no spoilers!
So I gather folks who didn't back the campaign have a choice of streaming them by subscribing to Rifftrax (would take two months sub to see them all), purchasing downloads directly, or waiting until the Blu-ray is released (I assume it will be sold to the general public, but I'm not sure?)

A Telugu blockbuster no less. For those wondering what the difference is between the standard Hindi Bollywood blockbusters and their South Indian cousins: if you think that the Bollywood output is too understated and mundane, then the Telugu film industry has you covered.
The movie starts with the climactic battle of the Mahabharata (in which most everbody dies). Krishna curses a warrior to walk the earth until such time he can protect the mother of Kalki, the last avatar of Vishnu.
Fast forward 6000 years, and the earth has become essentially Mad Max on Tatooine. The only place worth living in is the Complex, which literally sucks the resources out of the earth. Supreme Yaskin, the evil ruler of the Complex is doing unspeakable experiments on pregnant women. However, one pregnancy develops beyond expectations. The Resistance (because of course there is a Resistance) thinks that this unborn child might be the prophesied saviour.
This movie has everything. It is as if they asked everyone in the writing room to list their five favourite tropes or scenes from post-apocalyptic movies and then included all of them in the script, adding a dollop of classic Indian epic and Star Wars for good measure. Whatever you have on your bingo card of post-apocalyptic tropes, it will be full by the end of the movie. What with so much happening, the movie cycles through secondary characters at a prodigious rate: they appear, do their thing and then either get killed (mostly) or simply disappear again. An absolute riot!
Fun fact: part of the shooting of the movie coincided with Deepika Padukone's actual pregnancy, so those shots aren't faked.
