Last post by Dalmatian Bobby Samaritan - August 13, 2026, 07:54:26 PMQuote from: FatFreddysCat on June 14, 2025, 04:44:22 AM"Anaconda" (1997)
Deep in the Brazilian jungle, a documentary film crew searching for a lost tribe has an unfortunate run-in with a gigantic man-eating snake. Mayhem ensues.
The 90s CGI snake effects have aged pretty badly, but otherwise this is an entertaining creature feature with a surprisingly stacked cast incl. Jennifer Lopez, Owen Wilson, and Jon Voight (who steals the movie with his scenery chewing performance and bizarre accent). Cheesy fun!
I was thinking to myself the other day, I saw that first scene in Star Trek Beyond from 2016 and those Horny Toad aliens that Kirk is talking to. And then they all gang up and jump on him. And it was of course done in CGI. I was thinking to myself, is something off here. Because movies like Anaconda or Galaxy Quest (1999) were just as good. Possibly better, I would have to sit and watch them side by side. I mean I am not just automatically going with the 1990s because of Nostalgia. I think there is a limit to how good or accurate you can make things with CGI anyway. FatFreddysCat are you familiar with the guy on Youtube who says that Anacondas are actually fake animals? That the illuminati creates. Them along with Echidnas, Narwhals, Emperor Penguins, Komodo Dragons and Tree Sloths..
Based on that, any picture of photograph or museum or zoo exhibit of an Anaconda is bad or cheesy CGI. Well the zoo ones are supposedly puppets or rubber models. "Like they use with the Komodo Dragons." And of course Tree sloths are puppets or animatronic. When people loudmouth about how bad or cheesy the CGI or special effects were in the 1990s I am definitely quick to loud mouth back on special effects today. If anything looks off.
I hated the CGI in Star Trek Beyond and this was 2016 standards. So it is whatever. Based on what you are saying, then the CGI (which there really isn't a ton of anyway) in Galaxy Quest in 1999 was cheesy. I would say yes, Compared to Star Trek 2009 or Star Trek Into Darkness, but in my opinion Serenity has better CGI than either of those two movies. And of course I don't adhere to that fake animal philosophy. People are literally going coo coo in la cabeza out here, all over the board. Next we are going to be told that Acid Rain is actually A.I. or Star Link building a "Canopy" above the Earth's atmosphere to resurrect the Nephilim. The last days of Pompeii. A movie in 1908? Geez. Isn't that literally when Pompeii actually happened? They had motion pictures in 1908? Wasn't that when the Lumière brothers were hitting puberty? Anything about Emperor Penguins that I read in science magazines I eat up. I know they aren't fake animals. Not as swanky? Gee,

Last post by FatFreddysCat - August 13, 2026, 07:29:53 PM"Avenging Angel" (1985)
Four years after the first "Angel," the former teenage hooker is off the streets and on her way to law school. But when she learns that the Detective who helped her leave that life behind has been murdered by mobsters, she returns to the streets on a mission of vengeance. An entertainingly silly, sleazy low budget shoot em up with a slightly tongue-in-cheek, almost satirical feel at times. Betsy Russell replaces Donna Wilkes in the title role, and she fits into the micro-miniskirts and hooker heels just fine. Followed by two more sequels (who knew?), each with a different girl playing "Angel."

Bad Movies / Re: movies that namecheck anot...
Last post by Dalmatian Bobby Samaritan - August 13, 2026, 06:55:41 PMI have never seen it. But there has been a steadily building case that I should see it. I have a bad movies sequels list that I am working on and unfortunately Lawnmower Man II just barely nudges out Highlander 2. But it is possible that I will like them both about the same because I am still kind of forever in grace in 1990s movies. Sometimes I can't tell the difference between the bad ones and the good ones (unless you are talking about The Arrival. I would never suggest The Arrival 2 to anyone, I would feel like I would be committing a legitimate crime.)
Yeah on IMDB it says Sean Connery is in Highlander 2. No one can spoil that for me, I will have to see for myself. And I definitely will. Anytime I look in a magazine or see Sean Connery's face it is like he is secretly speaking to me to either See Highlander 2 or Rising Sun.
Netflix. You really should have been a scriptwriter. I believe at least for the new He-man movie. That line alone is funnier and more succinct than any of the jokes in the movie. And there were probably about fifty. I am waiting for someone on youtube to do a Joke counter or Failed Joke counter for He-man. Maybe I am knocking on it too hard, but that one with the "Butt Worms" was abysmal. I went to film school and I took a scriptwriting class. I know that if I wrote something like that I would have been ridiculed or told to revise it. I read cheesy comic books too and that wouldn't have made it for those either. You got me. Like Bill Paxton famously says in Aliens "I just work here." Ha.

What Was That Film? / Re: Movie about a male ballet ...
Last post by Dalmatian Bobby Samaritan - August 13, 2026, 06:43:25 PM1980. Good year. That bad Popeye movie by Robert Altman. I was going to say Raging Bull but that is Boxing not ballet. Although it seems like Robert De Niro's character goes insane in that movie too. Which I believe was made in 1980. 1980 must have been the year when actors and their characters go insane (I kind of do this weird thing with years in movies where I notice so many movies constantly do something of the same theme or node but only in that year. Like 1987 was the year apparently where you had to see some kind of strange machine that uses a grappling hook. 1988 was the year where you are seeing big blue tubes or vials or containers with Blue liquid. 1986 was the year when Atheists could break off of Christians and become mainstream and prominent people.)

It may not surprise you to learn I am partial to HIGHLANDER 2: THE QUICKENING. (well, some of it... there are some amazingly bad lines of dialogue to savour)

Last post by Dalmatian Bobby Samaritan - August 13, 2026, 06:10:47 PMHi,
In 2001-2003 I was in Film School. And you could say I was sort of a Film School drop out. I was in the same state as Robert Rodriquez and (cough..excuse me something in my throat) Dr. Phil. Long story short I basically love movies and many different Genres. My favorite genre is of course Science Fiction, in which I love Science Fiction books and authors as well.
So yeah George Lucas. To a lesser extent Ridley Scott. And to a lesser extent Martin Scorsese. Of course there are scores of others but those were like my Big three. I was really inspired by the fact that Ridley Scott was an artist and that he personally drew the storyboards for the First Alien film and that supposedly him doing so and doing so that well garnered an extra two million dollars for the Budget of the film. I mean once he showed it to the big wigs or producers. George Lucas tons of accolades, and I am not really going to go to much into it. Scorsese not really a Science Fiction director, but he is a consistent heavy weight and of the three directors I mentioned I have heard that Scorsese is the most likable to work with — among actors. And like I mentioned with Masters of the Universe (2026) and the issue of humor in movies, I feel like Scorsese has also known how to consistently do that and actually make things funny. When the moments in a film call for it. Someone can argue with me on that if they like.
Lana and Lilly Wachowski..(Formerly Larry and Andy.)
About the time I went to film school, the Matrix and even the sequels were being dubbed as the Next Star Wars. Well I won't go as far as to agree with that assessment, I thought the movies were excellent (Mainly the first one. And it cracks me up when I hear stories about how Will Smith was approached for the role of Neo but he turned it down. Geez, thank goodness.)
Not only did I enjoy the Matrix films — possibly the last time I saw a movie at a Theatre in which I bought into the whole Theatre experience of what a movie is, I also really loved The Matrix as a meme. Like take the Red Pill.
When I first started using the Internet and going on to chatrooms and forums and message boards I ate that up. Anytime someone would throw in a Matrix reference. Like something Morpheus says about what reality is. Or take the red pill (because everything we are told is a lie) I just totally loved it. When done well it was like I was getting a continuation of the Matrix movies but for free.
Now we are in 2026. I am not seeing the Matrix references on Internet forums or chat boards nearly as much. Almost like they have been quelched or stifled. I learned that the Directors of the Matrix movies, a couple of Brothers — known as the Wachowskis got sex changes and were now women. To the extent of that and how it was done and was there an uproar about it or controversy, I don't know. All I know is that I learned this on another forum and when I first heard it I thought it was a conspiracy theory. I didn't believe it. This is the same forum where they say that the Kardashians are witches because everyone they are around or associate with has horrible things happen to them (as you would believe as in the old Medieval belief about what witches are. Sorcery, brooms, spells etc.)
So I didn't believe in the Wachowski sex change story. But I thought it sounded like a good conspiracy theory.
Well it turns out that this conspiracy theory is true!
When I went to film school in 2001 and if I knew that George Lucas or Martin Scorsese or Ridley Scott had a sex change and were women then I would have immediately changed my mind. About going to film school. I would have instead gone into business or archaeology or communications. Those were my other two main interests.
Has the Wachowski brother sister sex change had an effect on people going to Film School? And yeah I don't mean to get into a transgender argument or discussion. I literally believe that people are entitled to their beliefs on this without being called backwards or bigoted and so forth. Without bringing a committee and all of that. Just verbatim or point blank has that had an effect on people wanting to enter film school? The directors of the New Star Wars sensation.
