OT: TV and Movies

GTFO of here with that new Prey trailer on Hulu. The predator would rip apart any native American or settler muskets in two seconds. I won't watch!!!!

Arnold beat its ass with Ewok tactics.

TBF, Predator losing to GOATed Arnold (1980's version) is like losing to Michael Jordan in the Finals. As Chuck would say, "there's no shame in that".

That is a really good joke.

Two (unasked for) thoughts:

- perhaps the Predators are 100+ years behind, tech wise, since this is set earlier much earlier than the original

- people (indigenous) who hunt stealthy for a living are going to be just as good at evading and stalking and hiding as elite American soldiers

Third thought, maybe the predators aren't actually good at the whole intergalactic kill thing? They do, in retrospect, get defeated by humans in almost every movie. Perhaps they are just a more alien version of stormtroopers, or the federales from Zorro (hapless losers, destined to die at the feet of heroes).

A funny thought but aren't pretty much all the Predators we've seen effectively young pups going through basic training and the ones that get killed pretty much just weeding out the weak?

I know alot of people didn't like the 1st Alien Vrs Predator (I actually quite like the 1st one) but at least it closes that inane plot hole that these super evolved hunters can get out done by a muscle bound guy in the woods useing mud

First three episodes of The Boys have dropped.

whoa, wut

so that scene about 10 minutes or so into the first episode was sure something. wow.

[Ron Swanson]

Season 3 of The Boys so far is really testing the limits of how much gratuitous violence is too much to the point of becoming distracting lol.

Well this looks awesome.

Paul Walter Hauser is so good.

Does anybody watch Joe Pera Talks With You? It's on Adult Swim but all three seasons are on HBO Max. It's set in the UP but they film a ton in Milwaukee. We just discovered it via recommendation and it's pretty fricken great.

Oh yeah, I love that show. Went to see his stand up in Milwaukee several weeks ago and it was great.

Stranger Things has been simply electric this season. I thought I was kinda over the show but this season has been a home run to me. It’s not like a true horror or anything but they definitely upped the horror vibes this season with some Nightmare on Elm Street and IT vibes. A couple of my friends that don’t dig horror had to bail on the show and I know some parents had to stop their kids from watching it but I’m personally loving it.

Finally caught up. I'm just so invested in these characters.

Spoiler:

I wasn't so sure about the new Freddy Krueger-esque twist at first, but I like it. Setting up for one hell of a showdown.

Stranger Things was excellent. Really well done to connect everything for a non-finale finale. Glad they let us sit on these before the last couple of eps so we can discuss theories and stuff with people.

I'm 3 episodes into strangers things...loving it so far, but the episodes are far too long.

You’ll love the second part to come then. Two episodes at a total of like 4.5 hours.

As someone that's grown really tired of CGI in everything, I'm genuinely curious to see how this works:

This is a real problem for me! Watched the first episode, mostly liked it, haven't seen another one. If it's one of the shows you watch with someone else it's hard to carve out chunks of time this big. I don't like breaking up episodes, but that's what's going to have to happen to watch it.

It's very distracting how much the 'kids' have aged in the '9 months' since the Starcourt Mall, and that they're supposed to be 14 when they're clearly adults and had been pretty close to their characters' ages for the first 3 series.

It's also distracting how hard the show leans into the period stuff and the homages, but that's always been the case and part of what makes it what it is. I'd like it more if less attention was focused on the setting (and the episodes would be shorter without these long, elaborate establishing shots) but the nostalgia is a core part of its appeal for a lot of people.

**** is genuinely spooky though and so fun and well-produced.
