can't work out if Ickerman is a trailer for an actual movie or some sort of MRA thing looking for crowd-funding

Apparently Iron Danger, which looks completely bonkers, is based on the Kalevala? Okay then.

Would be up for a watching party, surely netflix is the natural home of this kind of thing.

Yeah, I've watched a lot of enjoyably terrible things on netflix (and a few surprisingly good things I'd never heard of too). Somehow me & my friend ended up watching this *TWICE* while very drunk:

Top thread addition.
Btw can we get tuomas in here to tell us exactly how many giant nazi robot tank dogs there are in the kalevala?

tuomas is badly needed currently -- i want to quiz him about finnish cops (and the finnish language)

Iron Danger is genuinely terrifyingly bad. tt was saying it looks like a film by a religious organisation

also quite funny that only britishes are posting itt
Lots of big-name suckery in that last batch. Z for Zachariah sounds like it would've been more interesting kept closer to the book (which I just looked up, never read it).

I'm quite up for watching Passengers, cheesy as it looks.
― chap, Monday, 12 December 2016 15:45 (seven years ago) link
In fact I'll probably end up seeing a load of these.
― chap, Monday, 12 December 2016 15:46 (seven years ago) link
I think I watched too many of these in one go, had very odd apocalyptic dreams last night.
(Also I've now forgotten which one Passengers is, they really do converge into one.)

Oh yeah, I have images off so can't tell if youtubes are embedded and don't get the preview image to refresh my memory. The first one in this thread, right?

watched passengers
as a sociopath who has ruined the lives of several poor undeserving girls i guess i should appreciate what the film is trying to do for me, but it is bad. very very bad

has anyone ever actually seen Chronicles of Riddik? I always think of that when the topic of Sci-Fi I refuse to watch on principle comes up.
― Frobisher, Thursday, 29 December 2016 03:11 (seven years ago) link
Seen a minute of it. It's laughably bad (not that Pitch Black is anything to write home about either).

I enjoy watching trailers for these kind of movies so much. Someone needs to figure out how to make a feature length movie structured exactly like a movie trailer, I would watch that.

trailer does a heck of a job of burying the lede. but who is the real villain, the creepy guy who robs a girl of her future for his own pleasure or the spaceship designer who doesn't build in any fail safes or human oversight?
