Late to the party, but there is a lot of handwringing about the way this movie handles japanese culture. I took fat bastard being a sumo wrestler to be a direct nod to Connerie in “you only live twice,” where bond fakes his own death and then gets plastic surgery to “become” Japanese.

2024-03-02 17:46:32 +0000 UTCHow would you describe the problem that is modern superhero movies? I really get irritated when people bring up Spielberg or the Planet of the Apes movies or Westerns or Star Wars as gotchas, indicating that there has always been a precedent for this type of four-quadrant, franchise filmmaking... but the MCU (and DCEU) just feels different than those things but I have a hard time articulating why. How are modern superhero movies different or similar to the franchises that came before? Why does it feel worse now?

2023-12-16 17:51:57 +0000 UTCThis movie holds a very special place in my heart because my sister misquoted an amazing piece of dialogue as “I used to think you were nuts, but now I can see your balls.”

2023-12-13 18:15:42 +0000 UTCDavid touches on the Star Wars TCG as a companion to this Uber complicated AP card game boom, I would imagine he also had trouble parsing the rules of the Star Trek TNG CCG that is contemporaneous of those two

2023-12-12 06:51:35 +0000 UTCThe guys playing the young versions of Austin Powers and Dr. Evil are not dubbed. There’s a whole special feature on the dvd/Blu-ray about them.

2023-12-12 04:57:12 +0000 UTCJust wanted to point out that it does make sense for Basil and Number 2 to be the same age as Austin and Doctor Evil in the flashback, due to Austin and Dr being frozen for 30 years

2023-12-11 21:53:53 +0000 UTCThey should make a new Austin Powers movie but do it Bond style new actor and aesthetic. Mocking the Craig eras oh so seriousness. Matt Berry seems like a no brainer, he could also do the theme tune.

2023-12-11 21:24:39 +0000 UTCThis was the first movie where I remember a friend bringing it to watch at a party and holding back my disappointment that he brought a VHS.

2023-12-11 20:57:05 +0000 UTCTruly maybe my ultimate “I know this is shit, but we watched the DVD so much growing up so now its a part of my soul” movies. I can do the damn “English English” bit from memory. Also, as always is said, Marie has maybe the most infectious laugh in the biz. Its like the platonic ideal of the Gervais cackle.

2023-12-11 07:34:55 +0000 UTCMaybe an illustration of Momoa and Timmy doing the warrior’s “grasp each other’s forearm instead of a handshake”? Just putting this out there

2023-12-11 06:49:24 +0000 UTCJust FYI I would pay good Republic credits for a shirt that says “Wonkquaman” on it

2023-12-11 05:14:17 +0000 UTCI’m looking forward to hearing how high they rank Michael Caine’s performance just ‘cuz it sounds like a side tangent that they’d get into 😀
