So, instead of the mostly racially insensitive portrayal of Native Americans, they've instead went for racially insensitive generic Islanders. Interesting... Other than that, the trailer looks bizarre but in a good-ish way.
The way American Indians have been portrayed in Peter Pan movies are very bad. I think it might be a plus.
Then again, Frank Miller left out Ebony Brown in "The Spirit" and the movie was still horrible.

Wasn't Donald Duck banned in several countries for the same reason? Makes me wonder why Donkey Kong never seems to have any problems with the censors.

I cannot tell if its Shatner or Pine?

To anyone who bought products this weekend, thank you! I still haven't gotten around to playing with the Army of darkness figures it is still available. Especially since the show is coming out soon.

Darn it! I love Clancy Brown.
-
Wow, you guys have done a podcast episode on all the shows covered in the preview. Good on you!
-
After watching Highlander and The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai: Across the Eight dimension, I am convinced that killing off Clancy Brown is condemning your movie to have a horrible sequel or never have a sequel.

Is "Wages of Fear" any good? I have been told the main characters A portly Italian with a mustache named Mario and his taller friend Luigi may have had an influence on two video game brothers.

Thank you for fixing up the entry for Roshi onYoshi, as well.

agreed, I was never aware of the sexism until my coworker mentioned all the harassment she experienced on Xbox live. I would not be surprised if this becomes a chapter in her Dissertation.

I still say The Village is the worse film, just for it being the height of his terrible addiction to dumb twists.
Of course it is going to be bad if you only transfix on the twist. Then you would miss the whole point of it being a subversion of American Ideals. I saw it went against the ideas that everyone was happy and innocent in decades past (I am even including the Era of Good Feelings). By showing how easily the masses could be swayed and distorted with fear to fit one persons idea of the American Dream. Remember, this came out during the war on terror, which only proliferated more terror around the world.
I also saw the love triangle between Bryce, Adrien and Joaquin (I will get to the lack of their names) was fascinating. How often do you see a triangle where the most able bodied is the odd one out? In most movies, especially with a love story, everyone has to be physical perfection. If there is someone with a disability they have to overcompensate in one way or another.

Even in real life I am encouraged not to be with or marry someone with any kind of disability because then it is implied that I will live a difficult life having to take care of my mate and progeny. However Bryce had to be the one to step out and save the able bodied man she loved. Adrien could have easily been the Joker but you feel pity for his character. I almost saw a look of relief on his character when he dies.
Also this movie was a good example of the Worf-Sapir Hypothesis in action. Everyone addressed everyone as a collective, never as an individual. They never gave a name to the wolf creatures, making them indestructible. At least until the end, when one is killed and they are given a name.

The Prisoner Wow! just wow. I can see why this is such a cult show. Patrick McGoohan is amazing, Leo McKern reminds me so much of Brian Blessed. Alexis Canner also had a great performance as both villain and the victim. But my favorite character was Angelo Muscats "The Butler."
-
I just got off a binge watch of The Prisoner. The final boss scene at the end seems to have a lot of similarities to Zardoz. I wish Angelo Muscat could have made an appearance as "The Butler."
-
How about "The Happening?" Gaia is mad about pollution and she tries to kill off the human race. Seriously.
"The Mist" offended me on a personal level because of the negative way it cast Christianity. Pure propaganda. Ruined the movie for me.
I completely understand. I remember being offended with "The Invention of Lying."
All the women in my life (mother, sister, aunts, girlfriend,) are unapologetic M. Night Shyamalan fans and they all hate "The Happening."

Ah, the Roshi-on-Yoshi, a fine selection, sir.
Does that mean Roshi-on-Yoshi is a food of the tiradesverse?

I like that you guys consider the bartender to be the real protagonist. In "Best Worst Movie" they found the actor who played him and it looked like Troll 2 screenings were the only things he could look forward to.

Off the top of my head:
- James opting to retire "it worked in Blazing Saddles" during Highlander 2
- Dubs finding the plane safety video on youtube
- The intro to The Last Airbender (James' robot)
- James' Jake Roberts impression
- Dubs recapping the entire Transformers trilogy
- The Haikus
- Torque's keyblade
- The Muffin Button
- A montage of Final Words
I am waiting for the Jamesbot to make a comeback.

(fighting the urge)..... (remembering forum rules)...... (shuddering).... my post in Shameless self promotion has something that would go well with this news! (hides in shame).

I am glad that Star Trek did not remaster their footage like Star Wars, or else we may have seen Checkov inserted to encounter Khan.
-
I find it mind boggling that the songs you guys mentioned were used in the opening and closing. Especially since many anime fans consder Death Note's 2nd opening to be the greatest theme.

Can you save Ash from being opened up. Among my nerd toys being sold this winter I have a unopened Ash and deadite set.
If nobody will buy the set I do not think I could let such fun go to waste. I may just open it up give Ash his boomstick and have him go up against a deadite with a sword. But then again It is splitting Ash so It may be the good or bad guy with the gun.
To save Ash or see some other fun nerd items sold at a good price check out the things I have for sale on my Ebay site.

Rest in Peace Michael Crichton, for soon you will be spinning in your grave.

Actually I think I am going to like it. It seems to have that element of wonder that I missed in 2 and 3. Plus it seems like there aren't going to be any troodons or dinosauroids like I have heard some of the scripts were calling for.
