What was the last movie you've seen?
Re: What was the last movie you've seen?
Beyond the Gates.
It's a film released last year made to feel like 80s film but takes place in modern times. Story revolves around 2 brothers father vanishes and start clearing out his old video store. They eventually find a old VHS board game and it becomes a horror version of Jumanji. Cool film,a slow burner tho.

Sci fi all day. I'll pick this one up next trip to the store. Is it similar in tone to The Martian?MrPopo wrote:Yes, and it's fantastic if you like the harder sci fi stuff.strangenova wrote:Nope. Is that the one with Amy Adams and Jeremy Renner?noiseredux wrote:Have you seen Arrival yet?

I haven't seen The Martian yet, but Arrival is amazing. My Amy Adams obsession aside.
Re: What was the last movie you've seen?
In terms of using science to solve a problem then yes. It doesn't really have humor in the same way The Martian does; people crack a joke now and then but for the most part they're all overwhelmed by the momentousness of first contact, whereas The Martian was using a lot of it as a coping mechanism for the marooning and the various setbacks. But in terms of presenting the nature of the problem and being willing to break it down into the little pieces it's very similar, though here it's a linguistics problem rather than life support.strangenova wrote:Sci fi all day.

This sounds good. Does it present the problem and solution in a realistic manner a la the Martian?
Noise you should definitely watch it, I think you'll really like it.

It looks good.
Dude watch Arrival. If you love sci-fi or don't, it's still great.

I'm gonna watch it. Like I said I'll pick it up this weekend when I get out to the store again. I'm looking forward to it.

Saw Guardians of the Galaxy on FX again this weekend. I still tear up a little when Drax scritches Rocket's head at the end when Rocket is mourning Groot's sacrifice.
