#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 The whole thing is utterly unrealistic, because there's no way Disney will let them use their intellectual property. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arpy 4,145 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 20 hours ago, Docteur Qui said: I don’t think cash is the problem (apparently it’s amassed $90million in pledges), it’s the delusion that Disney would let them get away with stealing their intellectual property $90m? What!? That's outrageous, there's no way they've raised that much money. The producers are claiming they'll cast diverse actors, right all the wrongs of the official film and do it better, but they must be living under the delusion that the actors and producers who worked on the official film weren't behind Johnson's vision, that they were somehow fooled into making a steaming pile of garbage. This remake nonsense has got to stop, it's too far! Aren't there other films that probably deserve a remake? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docteur Qui 1,544 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 They haven't really raised that much money, it's just empty pledges. I doubt any of them could actually back it up if it goes through (which, of course, it won't) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At an airport I saw her reading Ready Player One, approached her, and said, "Hey, did you know Steven Spielberg is making that into a movie?" We ended up talking for hours on the flight, and spent a day together in DC, ending with a kiss in front of the White House! So I know there's Texas girls who would totally be into you, amigo.

I never found any intrigue or purpose in the concept of teaching him to roll over or whatever. Also, I'm intensely unpleasant to look at, which I've assumed is a significant factor as to whether or not a person of the female persuasion would ever find me ideal romantic company.

I know seeing this from a stranger on the Internet won't help you internalize this, especially if you happen to have some kind of BDD or something, but dude, you ain't that bad, judging from that one convention photo you shared.

Try making a more normal face than that "I just pooped in my diapers and don't want this lady to notice it because I will cry if she does" one, try straightening your shoulders and back, and there you go.

Kasey Kockroach 2,344 Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 I misread BDD as BDH for a moment. "I have Bryce Dallas Howard? I WISH!" Anyway, I can at least assure that, yes, I only particularly look like shite in that picture because I was nervous meeting Heather Langenkamp.

Kasey Kockroach 2,344 Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Oh, you think I'm not that bad, huh? Well, I recently edited the tracklist to Fallen Kingdom to include what are (to me) better puns! I couldn't replace all the titles though as I couldn't come up with replacements. No woman is desperate enough to gaze upon this and think "yeah, I totally want to snuggle with the guy that went out of his way to do THIS"...but I don't care, I'm still laughing my arse off looking at this stuff I came up with.

It's kind of like how Melvin Van Peebles deliberated filmed the sex scenes in Sweet Sweetback's Badass Song first, so executives would dimiss the whole thing as just black people making a porno and leave the team alone, giving Peebles the freedom to make a powerful film.

AC is good for keeping the temperature down in Spring but once you get past a certain point (May) it won't get down to the set temperature until midnight or so (if that). Choosing between indoors and outdoors is choosing whether to be boiled or baked. It does get a lot nicer in Fall/Winter though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
