‘Terminator: Dark Fate’ is one of the most vapid eye-rolling reboots ever. It is beyond laughable that the T-800 who assassinates young John Connor decides to become a family man for the fuck of it, only then to develop a conscience as a result, and realize the error of his ways. Can you imagine the original T-800 killing machine who Reese explains- “can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear.” -ever turning a new leaf on its own?! Also, it is SO obvious how hard they are just using this movie as another platform to push “THE MESSAGE”. John Connor is a white male hero, therefore he must be replaced with a teenage hispanic female as resistance leader. The protector, must also be female. Because of course a human super soldier augmented with machinery would be.. a woman. GTFO! 🤣

I’ve never understood why people think that, at the end, Andrew cared about Fletchers approval. He very clearly does not at the end. If approval was what he wanted, he wouldn’t have started without a cue, or played a totally different song, or kept going after the lights went out and tell fletcher “I’ll cue YOU”. When you seek approval from someone, you put yourself beneath them- that’s the pure opposite of what Andrew did. He put himself ABOVE fletcher by showing him “you don’t matter to me, the music does”

In reality, none of it makes any sense. John Connor is painted as the hero whose conception Reese is sent back to ensure (literally), and the same reason the T-800 is sent back. Without which, Cyberdine never would have been given the technology to create Skynet. So really, John Connor’s future existence is what causes the rise of Skynet in the first place.. so wouldn’t the T-800 succeeding in killing Sarah Connor also erase the future where it’s sent back to prevent his conception? Meaning the fact she lives and John Connor is born is actually causes Judgement Day, and the original T-800 is the good guy all along?.. 🥴 **popsicle headache**

I have to disagree with the idea that this shows freedom of will. If we are driven by our wants and we are not the arbiter of our wants, then even in this story when another point allows the two to make a different choice, they are no more the arbiters of that choice that all the infinite ones that precede it. there will be no point at which the experience of will is free because there will be no reckoning of all the elements of experience and training that goes into the smallest of willful acts. But easily one of the best time travel stories I've ever seen done for the screen. I can recommend "Predestination" as well, based on the short story, "all You Zombies", by Robert Heinlein.

Logan loves his family but sees how the world actually works. His conversation with his bodyguard proves he sees the world as one big game of importance (if you’re not important you mean nothing to the world) so he builds a new world for his family to live “safely” without a need to suffer building a legacy, but he struggles to actual accept they are people. When they lash out, it proves to Logan that they only care about what he can provide, not he himself, and he in his own fucked up way wants to spare them from the real consequences of the real world. Instead he excites rebellion in them and has to beat the, back down. I truly believe he loves them but cannot accept them as more than his children in his playbox.

He loves them in the only way a deeply broken and emotionally avoidant person can. He does the same thing to the women in his life, he finds fake reasons for betraying them. Hes a deeply insecure person and hates that his children are the same. He wants them to be evil like him but theyre all too soft to fully commit. He loves them but also wants to corrupt them.

_Bram Stoker's Dracula_ boasts gorgeous visuals, lavish production design and a sumptuous score. Though it is a tantalizing aesthetic experience, it suffers from the wooden acting of the supporting cast and a screenplay that is poorly adapted from the source material. Oldman's performance as the titular antagonist is unique and very memorable, but it isn't enough to carry the entire picture, which is tonally inconsistent almost from the beginning, jumping erratically from scene to scene. Seemingly random lines of dialogue are recited and never addressed, and the transitions between each act occur in such a disjointed manner that I question the editor's sobriety. I have no idea whether these inconsistencies are the result of intentional creative choices or bad screenwriting. None of the actors have any chemistry, delivering their lines in rote fashion. Oldman tends to be overly theatrical in his delivery, and Coppola evidently yielded to the marketing department with the casting of Reeves and Ryder, who are here to help sell the film to Generation X. It feels like Hopkins was tacked on at the last minute and didn't bother to read the script, giving the first lacklustre performance of his career. Sadie Frost seems disinterested in her role, while her three suitors seem like little more than extras, though they are played by reputable actors. Tom Waits turns in a performance so bizarre that not even his character being a raving lunatic can account for it. Despite its failings, the film has a great deal of charm, with its reliance on old school practical effects, optical illusions, and all manner of camera trickery. If the acting and screenwriting were on par with the production design and special effects, it would be a timeless masterpiece. Alas, the lack of narrative continuity is the stake through its heart.

Just thought about something. Let's just say we keep inverting even beyond the end of the movie. The protagonist is given the completed algorithm by Neil and ives. Neil then somehow reverses the truck and lowers P and Iveys into the center as the explosion is reversing. The algorithm is now back in sators possession, and They then run into a version of Neil who got there in time to open the door for them to run out of. Unfortunately he gets shot in the process. But there's still other neils in existence. I think the one at the opera dealing with present protagonist. But the Neil who lowered them in, is the one who runs to open the lock.... Wait. I'm confusing myself...brb😂😂😂

I intentionally excluded it since this video only covers "Tier 1" canon per the post I mentioned in the intro (linked in the description). Though, I'm considering an "Expanded Alien Timeline" next year when Alien: Earth comes out which would include Colonial Marines + some other expanded universe materials (other video games, comics, etc). Basically, anything that can fit the canon without being overly contradictory.

Art k*lls a child in Terrifier 2! The child eating the cereal in the clown cafe sequence. It's been very interesting to observe the psychology that people have around this fact. Because it was in a "dream-like" sequence, with a gun, and Not in the first scene of the movie nobody cared or talked about it when T2 came out, nor does anyone seem to even remember it nowadays with all of their react and breakdown videos. I speculate that the reasons people are So focused on it with Terrifier 3, despite it happening in T2 and countless other horror movies before, is because 1) Terrifier 3 hit a Fever Pitch in the culture and a lot of people are going to see it that are not regular fans of horror and likely havent seen the other two movies. And 2) Because it happened in the Opening Scene in the movie.
@OneTakeVids2 күн бұрын
Fair point! Though, I don't read that "clown cafe" sequence as just dream-like.... I read it as a literal dream, meaning no child actually died. Though the dream does have important consequences (i.e., it's the "divine test" which tells the side of good she is up to fighting Art, then they imbue her sword with power). Having said that, even if its a shared dream, it still shows Art's willingness to kill the child so its still relevant.
@myleswagner77102 күн бұрын
@ Ohhh very true! I guess it is literally a dream, maybe with real stakes for Sienna, but not for the other characters. Yet another way Damien Leoné shows his genius, he kind of “softly went there” in the second one to emotionally prepare us for really going there in the third. lol. Which he also does with Art attacking Jonathan in the second one. God I love these movies 🔥😄 And thank you for your great content and the fantastic and detailed job you do going through movies. 🙏

In the present, the team is surrounded by a yellow aura when they're inverted without masks. The windmill that TP enters after taking the pill has a distinctive yellow band, making it the only one with this marking. Could this indicate that the windmill is 'inversion stable'? Also didn't Max have the same pendant on his backpack?
