Russian soldier caught with his pants down

BSR says...

"A snuff movie is a motion picture genre that depicts the actual death or murder of a person or people, without the aid of special effects, for the express purpose of distribution and entertainment or financial exploitation."

Not sure why, but this video bothers me.

Maybe it's because it's likely snuff. But it's sad that people are getting killed whether it's the attackers being manipulated by their government or the people defending their homeland.

War sux.

STAR TREK BEYOND Official Trailer #2 (2016)

Sylvester_Ink says...

I'm thinking you probably don't understand Star Trek. The TNG movies were no work of art, but they were still decent Star Trek movies. Now none of the Star Trek movies, not even the first 6 (with the exception of the Motion Picture, and arguably The Voyage Home) truly represent what Star Trek is with relation to their respective TV shows, as they choose to focus more on space action and conflict, but all of them stuck with the core premise that Gene Roddenberry laid out: To explore the human condition and show how mankind can better itself.
The TNG movies certainly could have done better, and while First Contact was pretty darn good (especially if you consider how it relates to the Borg "trilogy") I've come to see Generations and even Insurrection in a more forgiving light. Heck, as painful as it is to admit, even Nemesis had a lot of potential, judging by the scenes that were cut. (But that's being REALLY generous.)
However, none of the new movies come anywhere near what the old movies were. Yes, Star Trek 2009 was actually a better movie than several of the previous movies, but otherwise, all of them, even what I'm seeing in this new trailer, lack the vision laid down by Roddenberry. And also, it's very hard to appreciate a Star Trek movie that doesn't have its core points laid down in a TV show, as it really is best suited for the TV medium. Without that character and setting development, you can really only get by with nostalgia and action.

Now some of the fan works, on the other hand, seem to do their source material better justice. I avoided them for quite some time, but after hearing about some of the good ones, I've started to look into them and have been pleasantly surprised. They are certainly rough around the edges, but they do seem to stick to Roddenberry's vision a lot better. Heck, that Axanar thing looks pretty compelling, if they ever get to complete it.

This trailer is still better than all of the TNG movies put together. Yes, including First Contact.

Tom Cruise Knows How To Negotiate

"From the moronic mind of BATFAN comes the motion picture event of the afternoon: IRON CAN, the incredible true story of the founding member of the legendary Appliance Alliance™.

Ultra Downy Jr. (now with floral scent!) stars as Tony Starch: Genius. Billionaire. Philanthropist. Can of fabric softener.

After being pressured into revealing his secret identity, Starch attracts the attention of the nefarious Fabrice Crimp, leader of a cult of creased cottons who believes that since the world isn’t flat, nothing should be.

Only Iron Can has the power-setting to flatten Fabrice and put an end to his ruffled reign of terror.

No one straight is safe. Everyone bent is probably ok for a change. The fate of looking presentable in a button-up rests on the nozzle of one can.

But even the greatest of heroes eventually run out of steam..."

Call For Global Moratorium On Killer Robots

chingalera says...

Indeed, and any number of scenarios may play out that could render a future variant of a "terminator" paradigm far from unimaginable. The tech you see in a motion picture today (should you care to use the most obvious rule-of-thumb) has been tried and tested, implemented and reviewed...But we won't see the meat of it until the military or other similar proprietary goons have declared it "unclassified."

Uhhhh, fer instance: Nanobots removing plaque from arteries through a technician's commands??-A SOLID 30 years ago this was already being done. Is the same technology available to grunts, cunts, or the monetarily impaired??-HELLO?!!

Sounds silly but only because our only real point of reference that we're used to is sci-fi.

Despite sounding ridiculous (and making RT briefly sound like ONN) this stuff has to be considered sooner rather than later as the technology is pretty much there now.

Voyager: 35 Years Later

critical_d says...

That's not as bad as Voyager being associated with Star Trek: The Motion Picture.

>> ^Reefie:

I wish the names Voyager and Janeway weren't related in any way. Unfortunately at the mere mention of Voyager I am instantly reminded of her grating voice...
