I loved the triangular headed hook people on Geidi Prime

Basically all of Geidi Prime was wonderful

It cuts at a point Herbert made when asked why he didn't include aliens in Dune, where he said that given enough time and separation, humanity would basically "become" aliens.

That's pretty much what happened with Geidi Prime. All the people there barely look human anymore, the architecture is unlike anything we've seen. The sounds, the lighting, the way the people there behave (especially those fucked up hook people in the arena), it's all so... weird I love it.

I love Ragnarok and it gave them room to work with for the subsequent Thanos duology
Ragnarok was where the problem began, though.

Like if the movie was just "Thor: Planet Hulk" with the Ragnarok storyline cut out I probably wouldn't have had an issue with it

But Ragnarok literally translates to "Doom of the Gods". It was forshadowed in Thor's vision in Ultron as being the painful and horrifying destruction of Asgard.

As is, in the film it's more of an afterthought or an action set piece, and the ultimate destruction of Asgard is treated as a punchline to a joke Korg makes

I'll get flak for this, but Thor

I can't stand what they did to him after Age of Ultron.

I get that making the character a dumb himbo and turning his films into comedies was a way to give Hemsworth some more to work with, but the character is absolutely missing that larger-than-life sense of grandeur that he and his stories have in the comics.

Like give me an actual Thor movie with an epic scale to it

no, since he'd get nothing done
This is my stance

If Bernie wins the Dems likely don't win the Georgia run-offs, he has a garbage relationship with the rest of the party so trying to get anything done with the Democratic house margin being so slim and McConnell gumming up the senate means any legislative policy is DOA

As for any executive actions? You saw what the Supreme Court did to Biden's student loan forgiveness, you can bet they'd be equally as vindictive and terrible towards any of Bernie's EOs.

He probably still gets a boost when the Dobbs decision comes through, but who knows if Democrats will be in a position to take advantage of it in the midterms the way they did in OTL.

I think he polls the same as Biden or worse.

I actually went to see Tenet in theaters last night since theyre doing a 70mm rerelease, and that movie is absolute trash in this regard. Just the most convoluted exposition buried under an indecipherable sound mix. And the fact that Nolan defends it as a stylistic choice is baffling.
They had Michael Caine delivering exposition while chewing on his salad. It's fucking nuts lol

I mean dialogue is a tool like anything else. You can overdo it but it still has a place.

Also people absolutely remember movies because of dialogue. Pulp Fiction is a classic almost entirely because of its dialogue.
steve jobs is another movie that stands out because of this

the whole movie is basically three long dialogue scenes but because of the way it's shot and written, it works.

Kevin Smith described it as "an action movie but with dialogue instead of guns"

Hinakuluiau posted...
At the same time there's plenty of moments where you should tell and that the repeating of "show don't tell" is just as bad as ignoring it
I think unless you're a generational talent at writing expository dialogue like Sorkin or Tarantino you should focus on figuring out creative ways to show first and use telling as a last resort.

Like you're absolutely right that there's plenty of moments where it can be used, but many filmmakers just use dialogue as a crutch.

I kinda feel the same, but not to the extent he does.

The first rule of screenwriting is "show, don't tell" but A LOT of writers disregard that rule and use dialogue as a crutch, whether to explain what's happening in a scene, declare a character's motive or mood, or to worldbuild. And because media literacy is so terrible nowadays, people seem content for things to be this way.

Your first order of business as a filmmaker should be "how can I show or convey what's happening without a character speaking?"

Biden, however; you can tell has a deep, seething, personal hatred for Trump and it comes out whenever he talks about him. The times I've seen Biden most animated are when he's talking shit about him.
