This movie was building the universe that we know today. You were wondering about the location where they filmed Skull Island. Interestingly enough, it was actually taken in Vietnam, very ironic that the time period of the story takes places some time after the Vietnam War. When you have the chance, go back and watch the post-credit scene because it’ll tell you that this narrative is about to get very spicy for the next following film. Good luck.
It’s so hard to make a schlocky blockbuster look like something worth while but the director of this movie really hit it. I’ve been watching the Directors career since and ITS A CRIME HOW LITTLE WORK HE GETS! The only thing on his radar is a Metal Gear Solid movie with Oscar Isaac, but I want him to get a really fresh blockbuster IP to work on, he’s well on his way to being a new George Miller (the Mad Max guy). I hope the new DC picks him up for something, he’s got talent
I remember first watching this movie and was thinking to myself; “Wonder why they decided to make Kong so big?” Then the post credits revealed everything and what they were building up to.
when this movie came out, I saw the trailer on Tiktok, and the first shark scene, "But I'm not a girl. I'm a shark!" was part of the trailer, and I had to watch it. I was instantly in love with this movie and have probably seen it 20 times in the year it's been out. I've watched it again with at least a dozen people to share it cuz I loved it so much. After I got my wife to watch it, she watched it over and over playing it in the background for a week. Netflix also released it on RU-vid for free when it was nominated for an award. I'm biased tho, Nimona's look and personality is so like my daughter that I told her, if there's ever a live action, my daughter needed to audition. Love all the quotes. "Let's go ki... get him. Let's go get him." :D
This is a great movie in the Monsterverse and how it goes into the Godzilla: King of The Monsters. Is Kong bigger in this movie or in the Peter Jackson’s King Kong.
Maleficent crashes the christening and curses Aurora in both the 1959 film Sleeping Beauty and the 2014 film Maleficent. However, in the 1959 film the reason is petty resentment for not being invited. The reason for her actions in the 2014 film is much better and more believable.
This film was a great follow up from Godzilla 2014. The best part for me was the post credits scene when we get to see the ancient images from Monarch, showing the familiar kaiju from the Toho films. That blew my mind and had me hyped for the next Monsterverse film!
No...marijuana was very common in high school. I was a little like Bender, but only to the teachers. I ignored most of my classmates. Most of my friends were in older grades or already out of school. I had a terrible home life, so I was full of rage. I moved out on my own when I was 15 (it was a long time ago, so you could get away with stuff like that), and it took me a long time to learn that normal relationships didn't work that way. The transition was difficult and took many years and two divorces, but I finally lost that edge that made me an a-hole. As a teacher, I was nothing like that prick. I think my background helped me to empathize with the situations of my students, all of which were low income and/or in the system.
I had to watch this film in college for one of my psychology classes. As an aside: I used to teach Saturday school occasionally (retired teacher), and I absolutely got paid. I wouldn't have done it otherwise. I was one of the rotten kids in high school, always partying and eventually dropping out after the 9th grade. Obviously, as an adult, I went back to school and got an MA in special education (mild/moderate learning disabilities)....but when I was a teenager, I was a nightmare. Also, you said "of course" to the question of the redhead being a virgin, with reasoning being that she was in high school. To be clear, I didn't know too many virgins in high school, and I didn't know too many virgins when I taught high school. A lot of my girls were pregnant, or had children.
I actually have this movie poster because I worked in theaters when it came out. On the poster it says: "They only met once but it changed their lives forever."
The Baseball movie that Keanu Reeves is in is called Hardball from 2001. There a couple soccer movie I know of if you haven't seen yet The Big Green and Kicking and Screaming.
I would say I was a mix of Allison (the quiet and extremely shy girl who teachers and classmates wouldn't even notice at class) and Brian (smartass and super hard on myself) at school. The circle trauma dumping always breaks me, specially Brian's lines. It's just so true. Doesn't matter if you are nice with the popular girls/guys, you'll always be the outcast if you don't act like them. At some point I was bullied too, but that stopped after some years... So I guess I was fortunate to at least turn into the invisible one. It no longer hurt physically, but it still hurt mentally (to the point where I was like Brian).. I discovered this movie last year and it's already one of my favorites. It heals, but I can't help but be a bit bitter that I never experienced something like that at school - be seen and accepted. If someone would've just cared to get close to me, they would've met my comfortable self - someone who can talk nonstop about absolutely anything 😂
It's not normal now, but in 1985, it was very normal for kids to be, um, extremely involved in high school. I graduated in '88, and from eighth grade on, there was always at least one pregnant girl in school. One of my classmates had her senior yearbook taken with her baby. (Another had his taken with his gun. I'm from the sticks.) It wasn't everyone, but it was certainly nothing that would shock people. But that's really changed a lot in the decades since. Now, it's not very common (thank God), and it does shock people. Anyway, I was the drama nerd in high school, so kind of a cross between Brian and Allison.
Shit, kids were having sex when I was in middle school. I was too awkward. I had a chance when I was 13 with a 15 year old girl I knew, but was too naive and insecure to realize that's what she wanted.
Back when I was in highschool, I was a sort of mix between Alice and Brian. I was the quiet kid who got decent grades, but I was friendly with everyone. But, I hung out mostly with similar types of kids to Bender, or the kids who were fairly heavily into videogames (I never was really athletic or had much interest in sports except playing them to have fun).
It’s crazy how much emotion they were able to put into that scene of Mr. incredible discovering all his friends were gone. I didn’t even know those heroes and I was tearing up. That was at 14 years old. For reference.
That's it. The CG. If you have lots of money, you can use computer technology t simulate whatever you want, so you don't have to have the people there. You can even use that technology to create vivid, beautiful landscapes and use them in place of human presence.
Those sequels are all about the tech. I hate the practice contact producers phoning it in because they treat media history as a basis for taking even a potential audience for granted.
