Ma-donnie Darko?

So. Detective Pikachu. Discuss

by **Wolfpack** on Tue Nov 13, 2018 11:43 pm

I bet they'll have a scene where Pikachu wakes up in a messy apartment and immediately pours a glass of scotch while a generic, bluesy guitar plays in the background.

by **Al Shut** on Wed Nov 14, 2018 6:27 am

I just can't get past the fact that Pikachu is talking.

Ultimate sign I'm too much of a nerd.

You forgot to have it in b/w with shot from the angle where it was behind a spinning ceiling fan.

Damn it feels good for Orcus to be back since Orcus' shadow ban down below

Did you get banned on the main site?!?

by **Orcus** on Wed Nov 14, 2018 12:02 pm

Shadow banned.

Which is basically a pussy way out where you can post, and you can see your post, but the post is invisible to everyone else.

Basically this was to give the illusion that you can still post without fearing that you will come back as a sockpuppet.

Considering Orcus's old posts are in closed threads, they were effectively preserved in amber an not affected.

Besides, the culture there has changed and most of the old guard has drifted away so there is really no point to going back

by **Wolfpack** on Wed Nov 14, 2018 4:39 pm

Whoever banned you must've been a fan of Species 2.

Man, the moderation of those Talkbacks is brutal. Puts the olden days to shame.
After Harry left, I stopped going to the main site. Not only were the Talkbacks so heavily moderated, but the thought of earning them a cent of ad revenue creeped me out.
I frequent Dark Horizons now. They're pretty decent on being up-to-date with the news, and the comments section is pretty decent there.

by **Orcus** on Wed Nov 14, 2018 5:28 pm

Orcus missed the golden age of AICN. As long as you proved your knowledge you were in. Now it's a pissing ground. Yeah you have some good folks but it' has gone downhill. Sister Satan seems to be keeping the brand alive so more power to her. Folks seem to be more positive towards her than Harry. Guess that's a plus

when i first saw they were releasing a Dumbo film, i thought "isn't it a little soon for a Trump biopic? at least wait a few months for the impeachment"
then i saw all the elephants, and i realized it's not about how dumb Trump is.... it's about how dumb the republicans in general are.

Would Orcus like a trailer link?

It kind of looks like a giant commercial for the new Nintendo console.

by **Orcus** on Sun Nov 25, 2018 9:47 am

Nah it's cool, Orcus checked it out and it looks bizarre enough that Orcus might check it out when it's released on cable or whatever. It kinda has a Roger Rabbit vibe to it though

by **Peven** on Wed Nov 28, 2018 4:57 pm

have not read the books but this trailer has grabbed my interest

by **so sorry** on Thu Dec 20, 2018 1:52 pm

Thor in a sharp black suit.

This looks terrible to me.

This all feels sort of....unnecessary.

it's amazing how much mileage you can get out of people making creepy faces at the camera.

by **Fievel** on Wed Dec 26, 2018 2:46 pm

Rupert Grint did it for 8 Harry Potter films.

by **Peven** on Sat Jan 19, 2019 10:35 am

i'm not embarrassed to say it at all, the John Wick movies have been a joy and I expect this one to step things up just like the second one did. Keanu doesn't get his due for these movies, he's created an American version of a French new wave crime figure, like a modernized Mellville film. a meanwhile The Rock is getting more $ than anyone else for playing the same mentally challenged steroid freak in every movie with that big dumb shit-eating grin on his face. Jesus Christ the general public suck

Shaft: The Comedy Edition Remake.

by **caruso_stalker217** on Fri Feb 08, 2019 1:45 pm

I'm not sure that I can dig this.

I liked the James Bond line though.

so... it's a sequel to Shaft, that is also named Shaft, which was a remake of Shaft made nearly 20 years ago.

enough is enough! i've had it with these muthafukkin' Shafts on this muthafukkin' movie screen!

by **Al Shut** on Fri Feb 08, 2019 2:49 pm

I think the remake wasn't a remake but also a sequel. It had a Richard Roundtree cameo as uncle Shaft if I'm not mistaken.

by **Ribbons** on Fri Feb 08, 2019 2:52 pm

They should have called it The Shaft.

Wait, there was already a Shaft remake? I missed that.

in that case it should have been called Shaft Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Shaft, with Sam Jackson as Shaft Windu

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels with Vaginas.

I don't know why Rebel Wilson keeps getting movie deals.

Monster trailers cut to "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" is perhaps the strangest trend to emerge in recent memory:

Iggy Pop was rumored to not have used any makeup.

Carol Kane and Bill Murray together again!!!!!

This looks very entertaining.

Are we sure this movie isn't an April Fools joke?

it's the new Inception BWAH!

my favorite part of that trailer, though, is finding out that apparently yakov smirnoff is one of the screenwriters: 'in soviet russia, you don't read book, the book read you!"

Jarmusch is one of those directors who doesn't make a lot of movies but when he does they are worth watching, for their uniqueness if nothing else. I never thought he had a movie that is as funny as this one looks in him, though. I wish I knew when this one was shooting, apparently it was only a couple hours away from me over in the Hudson Valley
