Classic Conversation Thread

Aw man, the day has come. My dad sold his 91 BMW M3, only 5,000 were made. The "White Lady" is what we called it. End of an era, that car is a classic.

@Just Tele I just read Annihilation in a single sitting. Good book! I am curious how much the movie is changing things around based on the trailer. Reading the book, it's DEFINITELY something the GA would hate and be left cold by.

 

The movie is allegedly very different in terms of plot specifics and yet very similar in terms of tone, mood, etc.

It made sense for them to go 

  Reveal hidden contents

Go to the middle of a slamdancing crowd with the value of what they were holding and did not feel like the script just wanted them to be there (as most of the events felt to me ?)

 

Or Will Smith character shift of mind from needing to absolutely survive for is daughter, to oh well let just die in glory in this script club did fell fully honest and owned ? Or just that the script needed him to care about is daughter to not care from scene to scene....

 

Most felt plugged in to me.

 

I thought what you meant by "didn't make sense" was that you found it confusing and you weren't able to follow the plot.  

 

It's definitely not a great film but I liked the world building and enjoyed the ride.

Trust me, that will be the least of your problems.

Twelve and a half minutes in and I'm already sick of Will Smith. Please stop talking.

Yeah I'm nowhere near as hyped as I was for Clemson vs Bama or even FSU vs Auburn and OSU vs Oregon. I'm in SEC country and even I don't care for two SEC teams. Tired of seeing the same crop. The fact that Atlanta is not currently a carpocalypse means that everyone must already be passed out.

Netflix can approve them and with a director with that track record they said yes I imagine, Fury/Suicide Squad were also 2.35:1 :

The only think they seem to never backtrack is digital camera, except for Scorsese.

Yeah I get that, I just don't get why the filmmakers would choose ultra wide when they know every viewer will be watching on a 16:9 screen.
