kai media thread!!
seminar ended early because it's the first session so i'll get home before sundown!
NOPE (jordan peele) 🤝 Insel der Tausend Leuchttürme (walter moers)

"cloud"
can you tell i had 8 hours of uni in film seminars today? xD
Varieté (dir. E. A. Dupont)

this was so tense and thrilling! of course the female (non-white? i'm not 100% clear on that) character was treated like shit but did i expect that from a film released in 1925? yep.

so i still enjoyed it, just had to ignore that the woman is a straight up object (ugh)
Sherlock Jr. (dir. Buster Keaton)

this is over a hundred years old now and it's really good. i kinda want to watch it again because there's so much going on and i did really enjoy it. the special effects are so good!
Hog Wild (dir. James Parrot)

yeah this is funny even nearly a hundred years later

they invented a technology that makes you worse at your job while convincing you you’re better at it. also your boss has to believe you’re better at it or else the entire economy explodes. they made the sophon from three body problem in real life
"But when the team looked at the employees’ actual work output, they found that the developers had completed tasks 20% slower when using AI than when working without it. Researchers were stunned. “No one expected that outcome. We didn’t even really consider a slowdown as a possibility.”

i thought it was watchable... but imagine if ares and athena were swapped. i found her acting much better than his and that plus some dialogue tweaks... a) lesbians, b) it being a woman would've worked as a parallel to the sister eve lost...
lots of missed potential. also lame action, unfortunate

Anyone interested in a rush $30 headshot comm? Will be done by tomorrow night. (I want to buy a video game before it goes off sale lmao)
the soundtrack does the heavy lifting for me here btw, i was expecting hype moments and aura to nine inch nails and i got mid moments and aroma to a BANGER ost so it's watchable for sure
goodbye program... :(
and jared leto's terrible acting did not help the weak dialogue... anytime depeche mode comes up that's suppose to be this humanising moment for ares but leto just looks into the camera like he's trying to emulate a frog...

and he has no chemistry with anyone, especially egregious with flynn :(
like that athena moment was supposed to be some terminator shit but i just saw a woman walk up a parking garage with a brisk walk lmao
that bike chase sequence...

sfx look geniunely great but the set pieces are sooo lame. a car is sliced in half for no reason.
there's an akira bike slide. athena gets hit in the head by the tron ducati and it looks SO silly.
she then has to walk back up seven stories, looking just as silly.
Tron: Ares (dir. Joachim Rønning)

would've WILDLY benefitted from ares and athena swapping roles because a) underdog story and maybe better acting with reversed hero/villain and b) i would've rooted for the relationship if they were lesbians

but yeah, cringefail movie, funny to watch with friends

michael sheen plays a gay socialite black market dealer (idk how else to describe it) who betrays his clients only to get blown up by his other client. this entire plot beat is there for exactly two things: to give the macguffin to the bad guys for a minute and to give daft punk a cameo appearance.
Tron: Legacy (dir. Joseph Kosinski)

so i'm seeing ares tomorrow so i wanted to have seen this beforehand.

it's fine, entertaining enough, the score is really good and the action was fun.

it lacks the charm of the OG and the updated designs kinda don't work for me.
dialogue was just okay.

2.5/5
