I'll try to fix up the ugly pictures and maybe add some color when I have time, and reupload another version later :b (don't know when though.) For now feel free to watch this one and laugh at it huhuhu

Eurovision nightGot myself some ice cream and will be making myself compfy on the sofa so I'm ready for the big, glittery, horrible music, camp, pointless politics, drama that is eurovision. It never disappoints me.

Sadly I will be alone for this one. Matt had to do a concert he didn't want to do, so I will be live tweeting (humonlazydiva) my impression of the whole shebang.

The Echo chamber dilemmaThe promise of the Internet was that unlimited information and experiences would draw us together. But instead it seems to have driven us apart.
For years I've observed this behavior but haven't been able to vocalize it correctly. Originally I called the behavior of collective opinions as "the hive mentality" of the Internet. But that wasn't exactly right and I often got called out on it. The most prominent example was when I made a comic about a guy disagreeing with opinions and being shouted at till he remained quiet, eventually fading into the background with everyone else. The consensus of that comic was that if you disagree with someone you aren't bullied into not speaking, but instead are free to go someplace else where people who do agree with you exist. And you know what? That wasn't what i was trying to convey, but is sadly true. The Internet is not a hive mind. It's many tiny pocket echo chambers of mutual agreements.
And this is becoming a growing problem, I think, because n

Bad Movies?

by ~jimmymcwicked, Apr 8, 2011, 2:57:55 PM
Journals / Personal

There are no perfect movies - not even the best are flawless... There are a lot of bad movies. The following 11 aren't among them...

- Jurassic Park III
- Superman Returns
- Beowulf
- Terminator Salvation
- Alien Resurrection
- King Kong (2005)
- Mission: Impossible II
- The Spirit
- Pearl Harbor
- X-Men: The Last Stand
- Spiderman 3

Many movies are worse. Too often the internet polarizes opinion, becoming a crutch to those who can't decide on their own... Anyways, I was going to write a short bit in defence of each, but I lack the energy.

FIGHT!

Bad Movies?by ~jimmymcwicked

~pencil-ambush Apr 8, 2011

You forgot to add "Groundhog Day "to your list. Its a classic. Also a recent favorite movie of mine Which has some pacing issues , but also has some really well done scenes is "Let Me In".

Cheers, G$

~SyrinaAstles Apr 8, 2011 Hobbyist General Artist

Actually a lot of those i dont like, lol.

These are what i consider to by my favs. Dont worry its not an outoing link, its from my DA profile ^^

[link]

Im so not saying your taste is bad, lol. I just merely would like to hear your opinion on my list.

I forgot to add Jurassic Park to the list, absolutley one of my favorites. Only the first one though, lol.

~jimmymcwicked Apr 14, 2011 Professional Filmographer

i am not very objective towards animated movies, as i have never seen one that i like. i see you like them a lot, so i think we are coming from different places... of your list, i like alien, maybe die hard and the lord of the rings movies. currently i am numb to anything star wars, even the originals.

~SyrinaAstles Apr 14, 2011 Hobbyist General Artist

Yeah i dont like the new Star Wars, ewww.

However yes i love the orginals!

Thats too bad we dont like the same movies, lol

*DR-EmpireZombie Apr 8, 2011

you forget to put human centipede and sucker punch.

~jimmymcwicked Apr 8, 2011 Professional Filmographer

um, i have no reason to believe that they are wrongly deemed bad by the masses, as i haven't seen them (and one of them i won't).

*DR-EmpireZombie Apr 9, 2011

sucker punch is very boring movie not a lot going on that and human centipede is the wost movie that may have ever been made, you question god in why was this movie made.

~XCBDH Apr 8, 2011 Professional General Artist

Hmm, I agree with you. I haven't seen all of Beowulf or the Spirit, but for the others I'd consider them pretty watchable. There's at least one good moment I could recall from watching each, and it's pretty easy to leave 'em on in the background. It's too bad Spiderman 3 and Salvation weren't home runs though, I think they really could have been.

Personally, I'd consider the worst of these to be Pearl Harbor. Bay and drama is a hard mix. People talk bad about Windtalkers, but for all its hokeyness, that movie actually had me interested, and touched on a fairly ignored part of history. Watching Pearl Harbor though was like...eating a bucket of plain yogurt, or something. I just felt like I could have been watching something else the whole time.

You know, when I was a kid, I actually liked Nuclear Man. Hey, far as I'm concerned, that guy was just as well conceived as like, 70% of the anime villains out there!

~jimmymcwicked Apr 14, 2011 Professional Filmographer

though i'd never call it a favourite as a whole, the attack scenes in pearl harbor were pretty amazing. if michael bay could focus on this sort of grand scale yet purposeful action, he'd be far more respected. yeah, the romance drama monopolizes too much of the movie, but i suppose helped set the context of the attack.

i have seen windtalkers just once. i like and am quite forgiving of john woo, however, him + an attempt at WWII = terrible in my eyes. anyways, this isn't such a tragedy, as the pacific HBO series and even the not-so-great flags of our fathers touched on the same content with more respect and effectivness.

~XCBDH Apr 15, 2011 Professional General Artist

I dunno, even with its goofy action and predictability, I just know I could sit through Windtalkers a couple times, where I could hardly sit through Pearl Harbor once. Maybe I just find Adam Beach more interesting to watch?

It's a similar feeling I get when I rewatch the Spiderman movies actually. I definitely consider Spidey 3 as the worst of the three, and hate it more for the potential it threw away. However, I admit I can actually sit through that one more times than Spiderman 2, and even more times than movies like Watchmen or Mystic River, which I liked WAAY better. I guess it's that replay factor that lets me know even dumb movies like Spidey 3 aren't the worst I could be watching.

I agree that the action sequences in Pearl Harbor were good though, and Bay does do some good action sequences. I think I'd have fewer hang-ups with him as a director if it wasn't for that excessively spinning camera move, and these recent Transformer movies.

It's a shame too, cuz I really like Bad Boys, and John Turturro is a great actor!
