What kind of grade is that, for real? in Movies ·
This movie was more than pleasantly surprising. I expected some sort of generic romantic comedy, but this turned out to be so much more than that. The dry American wit hits the mark perfectly, and the plot successfully avoids falling into genre clichés. The ending is one of the craziest things I've seen in movies like this.


"Samsara" is a documentary without a single spoken word about... well, what? About nothing and everything at once (now I'm just rambling). It cuts between shots of nature and scenes of human life, activities, and man-made structures. Those shots are spectacularly filmed and even weave together a narrative; they aren't just thrown together randomly. While I felt like I needed an explanation for what exactly I was watching at certain points, Ron Fricki (who specializes in this style) decided to keep us in the dark.

Do I really need to spell it out for you?

Based on that description, you still haven't figured out if his movies actually hold up, have you?

Replacing a PSU fan in Computer Peripherals ·
This is regarding a 120mm fan. I'll have to take it apart one day soon. I just hope I don't mess up the wiring while I'm at it..

I have a Corsair 400W power supply in my rig. It has served me faithfully for years, but I’ve noticed the fan gets quite loud when it kicks in. Is there any way to fix this, or is it time for an upgrade?

All these posts and I somehow missed this one? :-)

A remake of Scarface? WTF? in Movies ·
The more bad movies you sit through, the more you actually start to appreciate the good ones.

The true successor to Tony Montana's masterpiece is actually the game Scarface: The World is Yours

I didn't mean to be dismissive. I simply meant we used to see more films of this caliber across various genres in the past. Regardless, let's move on from 🙂.

I suspect people in the 80s were saying the exact same thing about the 90s. Everyone tends to romanticize their own era, convinced that the music, movies, and games were peak perfection back then..

Did people also question whether anyone would dare attempt a remake of such a masterpiece by De Palma? At least thirty years have passed since the last version hit theaters. That’s much better than those remakes released just a year or two after the original... [Rec] (2007) and Quarantine (2008)

Maybe they'll just rename the Best Actress Oscar after her so they don't have to nominate her anymore.😁

- truck driver - and honestly, robots already do a better job (even as we speak!)

I haven't seen a single robot behind the wheel of a semi-truck yet, and frankly, the whole concept doesn't sit right with me... just imagine if its microchip suddenly glitches out while it's hauling freight on the highway...

And what about human drivers? They fall asleep, sneeze, or misjudge their own abilities all the time.

It drove perfectly without a single accident until a human took over, and then—boom—a crash occurred.😁

Yes!

Plus, if this device actually works, we might even be able to manufacture our own printer filament right at home.

What’s the current price? I stopped by Walmart earlier today. It was quite an experience.
I just placed an order on Amazon. It’s always such a relief to have everything delivered right to my doorstep.
When trailers lie (SPOILER THREAD) in Movies ·
They're lying. Those extra scenes always end up on the special features. Honestly, the inaccuracies completely ruined the movie for me.

No, the thing is, based on the trailer, I actually thought it looked like it might be a genuinely good parody, rather than just the usual mindless nonsense.

I don't know, is it actually worth it?

What would you even say then? example: trailer for Mystery Men (1999) original theatrical trailer

Richard Wilson4 said:Look, I already put the trailers for everything I mentioned in the opening post.🤷

True, though some people clearly need a quick refresher.
I just finished watching two trailers for 1 and 2. Based on the footage, it looks more like a comedy-drama, especially with the "thank you for smoking" reference. Sometimes people just jump to the wrong conclusions. It's easy to misread things when you're expecting a wild slapstick comedy, even if there aren't really any signs that it'll go that route..

It wouldn't be a bad idea to just post the movie trailers right away. That way, we have immediate proof of what's being discussed.
