[11:50
AM] Mr. Silver:
Looking
it up just based on this: “any movie bold enough to feature a GIANT
ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD is a movie worth watching.”
Can't
find their rating rules
[12:15
PM] Ms. Rose:
My
dad is going to LOVE this site.
[12:20
PM] Mr. Brown:
[12:20
PM] Mr. Silver:
Easy
enough in the end based on the ones I knew...Skull is unbelievably
bad, and the drops add up.
[12:24
PM] Mr. Brown:
Looks
like an old vulture from HR Puff n Stuff
lol
[12:29
PM] Mr. Silver:
Anti-matter.
"No
one will be admitted during the "buzzard detonates like a
supernova when entering Earth's atmosphere" scene."
(Kid
looking in telescope) "Is it dangerous, doctor? It looks
big!"
(Scientist)
"Yes Timmy, big enough to eat a commercial airliner.
However the direct conversion of energy as it comes into contact with
Earth matter will leave the western hemisphere looking like a cracked
and empty eggshell."
"Gee
willikers!"
"Gee
willikers indeed, Timmy. If we're lucky it'll hit a satellite
and merely damage the atmosphere enough as it explodes to drive us
underground for a few decades to avoid rampant skin cancer and cosmic
ray damage."
"Well
that's good then."
"Right
you are, Timmy."
[12:36
PM] Mr. Blue:
They
should remake some Twilight Zones into full length movies
[12:37
PM] Mr. Silver:
Terminator
was basically one, wasn't it?
[12:37
PM] Mr. Blue:
Outer
Limits
[12:37
PM] Mr. Silver:
Ah
[12:37
PM] Mr. Blue:
It's
kind of 2 different Outer Limits episodes
Demon
with the Glass Hand and uhh... Soldier
The
beginning of Soldier is identical to the flashback (or flash
forward?) scenes in Terminator of the future... with like those
roving hunter/killers and lasers in a desolate wasteland. it's pretty
cool.
Cameron
didn't even try to disguise it. If anything he tried to make it look
as similar as possible
2
links there
[12:46
PM] Mr. Silver:
Yup
[12:48
PM] Mr. Blue:
Harlan
Ellison wrote both, I think
[12:51
PM] Mr. Silver:
Ever
see the frame-by-frame opening of Raiders of the Lost Ark thing?
[1:03
PM] Mr. Blue:
Hmm..
no
[1:04
PM] Mr. Silver:
Rather
cool
[1:04
PM] Mr. Blue:
Watching
it now
I
wonder if every one of these is intentional or if they were just
stuck in Spielberg’s subconscious
[1:05
PM] Mr. Silver:
I
believe it was all intentional
Been
years since I watched it, but the conversation reminded me.
[1:06
PM] Mr. Blue:
Indy
needed a MASSIVE pith helmet
[1:09
PM] Mr. Silver:
I've
only seen those huge ones in movies.
Just
went off searching to see if there are real ones
No
luck. Wonder if Hollywood found them as, like, oversized
demo/models/advertisements from hat shops, or just built them.
[1:15
PM] Mr. Blue:
"If
someone tries to walk out of here with our sacred amulet thingy we're
gonna crush them and the amulet with a huge boulder"
[1:15
PM] Mr. Silver:
“The
god won't mind”
(long
shot...full room...traps visible on floor as Indy approaches
flattened dish-like idol on pedestal)
[1:17
PM] Mr. Blue:
LOL
[1:18
PM] Mr. Silver:
(Flunky)
"Dr. Jones! I thought we
were after a figurine."
(Indy)
"Shh...it just means someone was here before, checking it
out...and checked out... (winning, smarmy grin over shoulder)"
I
can't get the plane landing and takeoff from "Jungle Goddess"
out of my head. Ever watch that MST3K?
[1:38
PM] Mr. Blue:
I
don't think so
[1:39
PM] Mr. Silver:
Steve
Reeves was in it
(fight
scene) "Man of steel, eh? (smack!) Give THIS to Perry White!
(punch!)"
Anyway...
Whoever
was in charge of making the "jungle" miniature did a fine
job with foliage and little trees and such...like a big carpet of it.
Whoever
was in charge of the "plane" miniature got a really nice
detailed model.
But...
Whoever
was in charge of the landing scene just rolled the plane over
the target and mushed everything under it. Plane would have to
be nuclear powered, made of adamantium, and the jungle made of rubber
to get a landing like that.
And
it took off the same way.
[2:02
PM] Mr. Blue:
Was
the plane scene at the beginning or end?
It's
around 36:00
LOL
I
see what you mean
Take
off is 1:30:00
LOL
That's
pretty outrageous
Crash-landing
a plane in a jungle and then taking off with the same plane from the
same jungle
It
reminds me of a scene in some movie with John Leguizamo and Mark
Wahlberg where he's getting chased by a car and he runs into the
woods... and the car follows him into the woods...and the car is just
sawing trees in half and it just keeps on going
Wait,
it was Lou Diamond Phillips
[2:10
PM] Mr. Silver:
See
how the plane just sort of levitates in and up at about 20 MPH?
Hehe
"We're
getting up to taxiing speed! Press that "up" button,
sweetheart!"
[2:11
PM] Mr. Blue:
LOL
It’s
like it's a helicopter
[1:29 PM] Ms. Rose:
I
hope all this crap melts so I can stop ice skating to work. I would
make a crack about jerks in town don't shovel their walks. But we are
one of those jerks, so...
[1:31 PM] Mr. Silver:
Honestly,
as a walker, if the temperature changes are right, the only safe
sidewalks are the unshovelled ones, and the only really safe place to
walk is on the street.
[1:32 PM] Ms. Rose:
Yes!
It's
like: fast walk through 4 cement pieces that are clear, slow waaaay
down and skate through the next 10 pieces of cement, fast walk again,
dodge the one random frozen puddle, back to crawl pace...
[1:32 PM] Mr. Silver:
Which
brings up my thought from this morning I forgot.
"It's
not safe to walk the streets anymore."
(ponders)
"When
and where has it EVER been safe to walk on streets?"
"There
are cars, bikes, horses, trollies, wagons, oxen, stagecoaches..."
[1:34 PM] Ms. Rose:
LOL
[1:36 PM] Mr. Silver:
"The
coroner's report was that he was walking the streets."
"What
was he thinking? Its not safe!"
[3:27 PM] Mr. Brown:
Um,
ok
[3:28 PM] Mr. Silver:
"Russian
16 year old boy wins puberty"
"A
vast compilation of international rite-of-passage events, "scores",
"wins", purity tests, and the like has been compiled as a
universal reference, and this kid's achievement scored so high that
it is not even on the scale as "possible"."
"Several
ailing traditional and monarchical governments have offered Shedrin
the throne as "king", citing the manifest divine hand of
God in the Russian boy's fate."
[1:28
PM] Mr. Silver:
A
headline really can't get much better than this:
The
writer used the word "beclowned" (swoon)
[1:29
PM] Mr. Blue:
Is
that a tattoo?
[1:29
PM] Mr. Silver:
AND
he was armed! (squeeeee!)
Oh,
I HOPE it is a tattoo, yes. Ballpoint would be OK, but...
Good
LORD this can't keep going like this! (cries) -
“he
had smoked meth from a pipe left sitting on the counter.
Officers
searched Worthington, and they said they found LSD wrapped in foil
and some rolling papers. His book bag contained a jar of psychedelic
mushrooms and a jar of marijuana, as well as a digital scale and gold
box that contained still more pot and unidentified white powder,
police said."
Sadly,
no, it is not a tattoo. But he should be encouraged.
They
even ended it with a loopy quote from the guy.
I'm
so happy now.
