Today's film, #2, "Promare." No idea what this one's about but the animation looks cool.
@Alexis@beepboop.one GET TO THE CHOPPER! wait wrong movie
@InspectorCaracal hasta la vista
hasta la windows 8
hasta la windows 10
@Alexis Have fun!
@Alexis I hope you know to stop there! (I've heard Dark Fate might be worthwhile, but otherwise, uhhh)
@naga I already saw Genisys with friends in London, so yeah, uhhh, I know what you mean.
But nothing wrong with a dumb popcorn movie!
@naga I'd only seen the first one beforehand, and lemme tell ya, I bet it makes exactly as much sense *with* all the context.
@Alexis Dark Fate apparently pulls the Highlander trick and ignores the intervening ones (each Highlander sequel, and even the TV series, spun off directly from the first movie)
@Alexis I agree on the verdict.
@Alexis as someone who hasn't seen a single Terminator film, my understanding is: time travel?
@The_T I've *seen* the fourth one, and don't remember a thing about besides Matt Smith playing Skynet, so: I guess?? Probably??
@Alexis sigh should I just go ahead and watch these as well
@Alexis there's a TV series also isn't there. is it Joss Whedon??
@The_T I don't think it's one of his, and I also don't think I need a mid-2000s Fox version of this franchise in my life, honestly.
@The_T Terminator and T2 are legit great action flicks.
@Alexis yeah but surely we can't stop there
@Alexis@beepboop.one that neatly summarizes the core flaw in the terminator franchise
@Alexis The post-T2 movies are the very definition of "wibbly-wobbily timey-wimey"
@Alexis All Terminator movies are just remakes of the first one.
bad word
@Alexis pooper
bad word
@The_T death to all the world's anuses

re: ⛓️ "I Am A Fugitive From A Chain Gang" (1932)
@Alexis@beepboop.one more like "yes i've gotten rid of all my guns, where guns means rifles and i've still got a room full of revolvers"
