I don't know if those angles are worse than the ending of Leviathan, though... which is a really underrated horror movie. What the hell is wrong with Peter Weller yelling "Say AHHH Motherfucker!" before tossing an explosive into the monter's mouth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.K.o.S. Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Aftermath I've been a Scoot McNairy fan for years. And now he takes on ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER. Get me an opening day ticket! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted February 8, 2017 Author Share Posted February 8, 2017 Speaking of movies with Johnny Cash songs... I really like that Arnold decided to do a post politics run of doing these "smaller" type movies that he probably wanted to do all his life instead of doing 48 Terminator sequels (Granted - not all of them might be good but still) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's done some crap but he's also done some really good stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Aftermath looks great but that's another one of those titles that has probably been used a thousand times and this one reminds me specifically of Nacho Cerda's film about necrophilia. Not a good memory right there. Back to Life, whether he dies early/at all or not, it's still awesome seeing Clarke Peters having a big role in a big Hollywood film. EDIT: Holy shit, after just typing "aftermath film" into Google, the first one was in 1914!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 I did a paper on dystopias in fiction for a sci fi class 20 years ago and there were more written after 1945 than all fiction before that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Action movies keep the bills paid, but not all of Arnold's sequels and vanity vehicles were mindless. I still have fond memories of watching Total Recall and True Lies in an actual movie theater. Maggie is also pretty good and a huge departure from what you'd expect from Schwarzenegger.

odessasteps Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 That may have been worded poorly. (Multitasking at work) Should have said more dystopian fiction after 1945 than all the dystopian fiction before 1945. I might still have it on disc somewhere. Id be curious to read that and my paper for sitcom class on F-Troop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odessasteps Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 I think it was a decent premise: the dominance of the tv western ended its cycle with parody (f troop) and pastiche (wild wild west). The one paper i do have is one about MST3K and "electronic shadow memory." I may also still have this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig H Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Oh my goodness. I'm seeing The Circle just for EVIL Tom Hanks and EVIL HENCHMAN Patton Oswalt. The best this movie could do for me is to be so completely absurd with casting those two as totally evil dicks. Also, good on Patton for keeping himself busy. Seeing what my mom went through after my dad died, I can imagine how tough it is for him or anyone else who has lost a spouse to keep on going.

Eivion Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Still haven't seen the original films. I watched Stand Alone Complex, its film, & the Arise ovas. I'm going in mildly optimistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
