Movie thread

The only real departure from the book was the final journey to the other MAV, which was epic and full of peril and near-death experiences. The movie almost completely skipped over that, like "oh look, we're here!"  1200 miles later...

so can you really grow potatoes in your own shit?

I liked his methodology for creating condensation as a way to keep the crop irrigated.  Aside from the mis-calculated hydrogen production.  LOL

One of my favorite lines is after he realizes really what kind of situation he's in, he just sits back in his chair, on camera, and goes "FU@K!"  I mean, what else is there to say at that point?

The commander'a choice of music was an excellent running joke in the book.

"You know what, no, I'm not going to turn the beat around....I'm just not."

I would be in favor of taking the money that the millennial's want for their party life in college loans and putting it towards funding the mission to mars, probably get much more ROI

Finally got around to seeing Deadpool.  Awesome movie.  Definitely looking forward to the second one with Cable.  Hopefully they keep the 'charm' of this movie now that they're guaranteed to have a significantly bigger budget next time.

^^ How much footage are they going to release for that movie?  Every day I see something new come up on my news feed.  I haven't watched anything other than the first couple of trailers, but man, talk about spoilers.

 

[Road Guy]

why don't they just do something that people want to see, like Batman versus Darth Vader?

Superman vs Hulk.

Did anyone else except me and Jada boycott the Oscars last night? I heard that Jada plays the field so I was trying to "jump" on her movement!

Off course I haven't watched that show in 20 years, but don't tell her that..

I have never watched it before last night.  Decided watching Chris Rock host a #allwhite Oscars would be entertaining, so I DVR'd it.  Only saw about the first hour (with a lot of fast-forwarding), but so far it was pretty good.

I did not watch the Oscars. I have no interest. But, I'm looking forward to the BET Awards.

 

[Road Guy]

I don't know why people like to celebrate the awards of millionaires? I wonder what would happen if there was a tv show where all the fortune 500 company CEO's got awards every year and they showed up in their $5K suits and $10K dresses?

 

[Ramnares P.E.]

I didn't watch it but saw Chris Rock's opening monologue.  Thought his comment to Jada about her boycotting the Oscars was like him boycotting Rihana's panties - they both weren't invited in the first place was particularly funny.

 

[Road Guy]

When I lived in Atlanta It was always in the local news rag magazines that Jada and Will were "swingers" and that they would come to some club that was in some swanky hotel in Buckhead- Chris should have used some of that in the monologue..

I didn't see concussion, maybe its the tom hanks moment of his career where he moved from Bachelor Party to Forest Gump, but I don't think he is "all that and a bag of potato chips" in terms of acting.. I mean most all these movies that win are usually terrible in terms of joe public.. enjoy being a millionaire and have a big cup of shit the fuck up!!

^^^ Only one post for Fox?   :blink:

 

[Ramnares P.E.]

Also he's now in the acoustical field and doesn't want to share his gender.

 

[Dexman PE PMP]

Turkey bacon will do that...
