Added 2023-06-23 03:30:01 +0000 UTC
We complete our seven-year cycle of covering the DC Cinematic Universe with a review of The Flash: a gross mishmash of CGI dreck, digital necromancy, multiversal genocide, and actual criminal performances that serves as a fitting cap to the franchise and, why not, Cinema in general. Grab your popcorn, throw your baby in the microwave, and listen in!

You guys didn’t watch Oppenheim? And I read this?

The pitch for Pixar's "Sodas" was really compelling following the Flash recap.

2023-06-28 22:03:41 +0000 UTC
According to a VFX supervisor on The Flash that cause of the poor CGI was being force to low-bid competitors and horrible initial shots (invariable due to Miller's inability or unwillingness to perform in part) with unreasonable turn-arounds. Once again, it seems that corporations create mediocre and unreasonable/unsafe conditions and spend all the money on the media marketing (such an extraordinarily parasitic industry) counting on labor de-valuation and government subsidies to create their profit; with the ultimate goal as being monopolization so that mid-budget media can't be profitably created.

It depends on what they took before they sat down to watch. Coke? Dudes Rock movies like Top Gun Maverick. Weed? Chill beautiful movies like Avatar 2. Opiates? Terrible movies like whatever Felix likes ironically.

Felix 100% did not watch this movie. “I watched a lo-rez torrent in 3 languages with ads”. Sure. More like before recording, he looked up some hot takes from Twitter leaks with clips or had Matt and Will give him some bullet points of some of the shittiest bits.

Gosh dangit Bobby, can't you see superhero movies aren't making superheros better! It's making movies worse! The endpoint of AI is on demand, completely personalized and atomized, entertainment to whatever prompt you can give it. Simply ask the benevolent machine - "Show me Superman in prison fighting off the guys from Oz, but he has daddy issues." - and while it won't be anything approaching art, it will give the seals something to clap at. Another movie in the Chapo cannon, unfortunately, Ready Player One, this is an annoying plot point. Prophetic archon Steven Spielberg saw what that novel was. The protagonist uses VR to insert themselves into the movie War Games as Ferris Bueller and recite the lines 1980s movie War Games in order to progress or whatever, but insinuates that this is the only way people enjoy movies anymore. The only entertainment was regurgitated relics of the past, and the entire country was like Will's fellow movie goer.

You hate the movie because it's demonic trash, I love the movie because it's demonic trash. We are not the same.
