Heh, this is the third place I've seen it, so far, and every time I've seen it, someone's neckbearded about Zangeif not being a villain. (one even *actually* neckbearded about how to pronounce Zangeif)

I'm going to neckbeard about how to spell Zangief.

Questions about Prometheus, from Red Letter Media.

Spoilers for the movie, of course.

I watched Prometheus with my father and sister earlier today. It's very entertaining seeing how many of our own questions get paralleled. Thanks.

EDIT:
Somebody singing the Song of Durin's Awakening from LotR.

Ohhhhhh fuck yes! I'm sending this to my friend who didn't find anything horribly dumb in the movie. The guy beats your head in with the stupid and keeps beating it until your head cannot take it anymore.

Some of the things, I can give a pass on.

The old man seemed to be telling him to find out more, get some kind of results.Before David infects the guy, he asks "What would you do?" and gets an answer like "I'd do anything, go all the way". THEN he dips his finger into the glass, obviously influenced by That Guy's answer.

There's some stuff that's dumbass characterization or plot-required stupidity, but a few things seem to be questions recognized and deliberately unanswered.

erik · Post by **erik** » Mon Jun 18, 2012 3:21 pm

Yeah, I gave a pass on that one too. It's not like that guy was of any use by that point and he may well have volunteered if directly asked.

I can also attribute much of the stupidity to that they are led by freakin archaeologists knowingly heading into a xeno-biologist mission. No wonder they don't fucking know how to use space suits or understand simple shit like "just because it won't suffocate you in 2 minutes doesn't mean it is fucking safe".

The real suspension of disbelief is why the fuck were these morons chosen in the first place? I think Weyland was losing it, spent top dollar to recruit people and nobody could effectively question his judgment both because he was the boss and he also played his stupidity close to the vest until they got there. End result, people join up without knowing what they are going to do, just content that they are getting mad cash for it, and then they find out oh, we are completely the wrong people for this crazy mission which is the last whim of a desperate senile dying rich guy.

Oh good, they slathered alignment stupidity all over it.

I was more annoyed by how bad it looked. It looks like a student film on a ~200 dollar budget.

I actually laughed when the guy exploded. I don't think that was the intention.

Prak · Post by **Prak** » Sat Jun 23, 2012 9:05 pm

Yeah, that was pretty terrible. I actually couldn't recognize a single effect in that trailer, with the possible exception of the Lightning Javelin-that's-not-really-a-javelin.

Why do they keep trying? Clearly no big name in Hollywood is going to touch the D&D property at this point. Ready made audience not withstanding, because said ready made audience expects D&D movies to be terrible. At this point, they need to either find a big name producer who wants to throw down money and save the D&D movie franchise, or Hasbro needs to throw down the kind of money they did for Transformers.

Well, the Knights of Badassdom can't even get released. Which, I don't understand why.

Ugh, I need to make friends in the Theatre department at school. I'm pretty confident I could make something better...

Because they actually think that a movie made by dedicated LARP gamers with access to a camera and computer is the best that D&D has to offer.

Prak · Post by **Prak** » Sun Jun 24, 2012 6:09 am

Except I'm pretty sure dedicated LARPers with a camera and computer could do better...

I let a laugh escape, but I thought that was the intention. That was a joke/fan trailer right?

TSR made a shitty deal where they sold the license to make D&D films to the company that made the first D&D movie. That company then transferred the license to Silver Pictures which makes it a shame that the second movie was as terrible as it was. Following with a tradition of failure the license is now apparently held by Zinc Entertainment Inc. No idea what they've done. It appears to be a deal where as long as movies keep being churned out or the license is transferred, and movies keep being churned out, whatever company is the license holder gets to keep the rights as long as they want.

Prak · Post by **Prak** » Sun Jun 24, 2012 9:34 pm

...I now suddenly wonder how much the D&D movie rights are worth. A Tome movie could be awesome, what with there being at least a dozen metaplots already outlined.

Came across it while looking for a different piece of religious crazy. Apparently Sunnis are whores and homosexuals

His logic goes roughly like this:

1) Take anything ever.
2) It's a passive homosexual!
3) No, that's it.
