The Lord of the Rings (1978) in Movies ·
It is true that there is a massive discrepancy between these scenes and classic animation or rotoscoping, but then again, I suppose a brief respite from all these modern CGI cartoons—which have honestly become quite exhausting—is certainly within reach. 😁
How to reduce video file size? in Software ·
Actually, I believe you're mistaken; within HandBrake, one can manually input a specific value rather than being restricted to the preset options provided.
Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters (2012) in Movies ·
I just watched the trailer and I have to say, my opinion has shifted. It doesn't look half bad, actually, and I suppose it somewhat reminds me of Van Helsing, though I might add that I actually found that movie rather enjoyable. 😁
PS1 vs. PS2 controller compatibility? in Computer Peripherals ·
I suppose I should ask whether this is intended for the PS1 or the PS2? Based on the photo provided, it looks like it's meant for the PlayStation 2, even though you mentioned the PS1 in your text, so I suspect it won't actually work on that console.
The X-Men series (2000-2019) in Movies ·
The characters feel incredibly two-dimensional, particularly those residing at Xavier's school. They just listen and follow along, appearing as harmonious and uniform as a group of Smurfs. I suppose Wolverine is the only one who actually stands out from that mold.
And as for Magneto... does anyone here actually feel any desire to identify with him?
The X-Men series (2000-2019) in Movies ·
casualhound42 said:This is easily the most idiotic and completely useless entry in the entire X-Men series—honestly, it feels like someone ran out of ideas or cash and just rushed this through production to get it over with. They could have just given every single character their own standalone movie instead; then we might actually have had a decent franchise.
I don't get it—Wolverine is such an unlikable character. Why on earth do so many people identify with him?? 🤷

I suppose it’s because, in these movies, he’s pretty much the only character who actually seems to have blood in his veins, whereas everyone else tends to act like they're programmed robots.
The X-Men series (2000-2019) in Movies ·
I suppose you could start with X-Men: First Class... then move on to Wolverine, and after that, maybe just follow the chronological order.
Honestly, that whole debate about who the greatest James Bond has ever been was settled ages ago, and I suppose it’s probably best if we don't go cluttering up this specific discussion with it.
Tesla, World Leader (2012) in Movies ·
If the director happens to be a total Tesla fan, I suppose they’ll just turn him into some sort of mythic hero and credit him with inventing every single thing under the sun, much like the way those writers over at Wired tend to do. I suspect that without all that mystical nonsense, the movie would just slip by unnoticed, though I have a feeling it might end up being a flop regardless.
Reeve as Superman was just untouchable.

Tesla, World Leader (2012) in Movies ·
The Secret... used to be a staple in theaters, though I suppose if you're young, you might not recall it. 😁
Given how things usually work in Hollywood, I imagine it would be quite a shock if they didn't include an alien invasion or some massive explosions. 😁
Tesla, World Leader (2012) in Movies ·
Betty Hayes10 said:There have certainly been plenty of documentaries, feature films, and biographies produced about Tesla, but I suppose we haven't actually had the chance to see him portrayed on the big screen quite like this before.

So, what exactly are we looking at here? The Secret of Nikola Tesla (1980)
Or perhaps it is the series Nikola Tesla (1977)
Jaws in Movies ·
I suppose it feels as though the filmmakers didn't even bother making a genuine attempt at crafting something original or engaging; it seems their primary objective was simply to throw a handful of 3D gimmicks at the screen to see what stuck. 😁
Best Sci-Fi Directors? in Movies ·
Terminator 1 / 2, Aliens, The Abyss, Avatar... I suppose it has to be James Cameron.
How do I download videos from Dailymotion? in Software ·
There isn't much to say here, really. If you have Video DownloadHelper installed, I suppose you just need to start the video, click that little arrow next to the Download icon, select the link from the list, and then save the video file.

Is the site down for everyone else? in Forum Help! ·
This is just that same old chronic issue we keep running into, and I suppose there have been countless threads dedicated to it already. For instance: 503 Service Unavailable No server is available to handle this request.
I suppose you could probably get away with doing that using pretty much any photo editing software out there, I guess.
I suppose the most straightforward answer is actually the correct one. And it really is the right way to look at it, mostly because that's how everything is explained during the movie's final scenes.
They aren't fake—they actually happened—but I suppose they feel fake because those shared experiences don't really exist anymore once that morning passes, especially since the ending takes place 150 years later.
E. L. E explained to him what actually went down after that morning, so they decided to pick that exact morning to start the virtual reality sequence, which wraps up right at the end of the movie.
