Never Cap a Locked Pocket! Risk Progressive Capitals

[@SirGeeeO]

I think the fascination with Zombie's isn't about the zombies, its about the post apocalypse which people like because it represents a return to simpler times.

[@RealitaetsverweigererDerAmpel]

Thats definitely it for me.. not having to go for work all day but having to survive in the wild with guns and trying to create your own fortress and food source, being independent and able to do whatever you want. I‘ve always been fascinated by nature, would be a real adventure.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

I'd prefer a simple time of peace

[@abelrodriguez8354]

One time I was locked in my room and convinced my mind that there was a zombie apocalypse going on. I imagined what it would be like. It was nothing but fear, I imagined the banging on the doors, the screams and family and strangers who couldn't make it. It was awful, never again

[@jegsh4299]

Zombies can also represent the now, and the banality of existence in a world where human experience is quantified and reduced to economic metrics. Like once once you get bit, you're one of *them.*

[@STR4nG3boy]

Ex Machina is an amazing film, good choice for a recent pick. Film recommendation time: Burning, directed by Lee Chang-dong. Steve Yeun's performance is subtle, but captivating the entire time he is on screen. A beautiful film, one of my favorites in the last 5 years.

[@FinalCataclsym]

Wapow! What an ending! Green got impatient at the climax and got sent packing. Watching you pull wins out like this will never not be satisfying. Another great job Pete.

[@danielkanewske8473]

Ex Machina is one of my favorite films. I have a theory about the meaning of the film. Pete, if you're interested, let me know and I will write a brief synopsis.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

I definitely am

[@danielkanewske8473]

@@TheKillPeteStrategy Ok, great. my premise is that the film is about the rise of women. Oscar Isaac plays the old male, violent, drinking, dominating women. Domhnall Gleeson is the new male, gentle, thoughtful, kind. The black robot smashes it's arms to pieces in a rage because African women are still almost completely subjugated. the Asian robot can't speak because Asian women, while better off than African women, still have no voice. The white robot, murders the old male and locks the new male in a house, metaphor intended, while she goes off to, presumably, take over the world. Pete, what are your thoughts on my take?

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

@@danielkanewske8473 I would be curious to hear what Alex Garland has to say about that. I don't tend to pay a lot of attention to things that subdivide humanity into groups like race and gender but i definitely understand why so many people do.

Chris Nolan movies are fking awesome bro wtf 😂. Interstellar is one of the best, most heartfelt movies of all time IMO, just to name one example

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

When I got to the end of interstellar and I realized that was it and I wasn't going to be satisfied that I had any clue wtf was going on I felt like I had completely wasted three hours of my life and that Chris Nolan had stolen them from me.

I think Christopher Nolan has only made 3 great films, and everything else is...interesting, but sometimes not good. Memento, Prestige, Dark Knight.

[@daveocutter]

I fell asleep during the Bane one too, and I went on the opening night… I really tried to care. I went back the next night to try again, and fell asleep again. It’s pretty much unwatchable. And my friends who love Christoper Nolan think I’m the biggest idiot for not liking that movie. You’ve vindicated me here Pete…

Actually, the inspiration for the Indiana Jones series are the film serials from the 1930's-1940's and the James Bond film series (not the Ian Fleming novels). Comic books as we understand them didn't really exist until the very late 1930's. The earlier comic books were almost entirely digests of newspaper comic strips. Indiana Jones is also the spiritual heir of Allan Quartermain, but H. Rider Haggard's character never had adventures outside of Africa, unless a chapter on a pheasant hunt in England counts!

Naval and air bombings paratroopers and storming the beach. It wasa blowout success.

I think the rap music thing has less to do with age since we're about the same age and I very much enjoy rap. Do you know why you dislike rap (usual lyrical content, lack of melodies and harmonies, etc?) or is it just that it isn't to your taste? While I can't agree if your assessment is that Kingdom of the Chrystal Skull is a movie that had any business being made, I appreciate your perspective. I can't say I would have thought of it that way and I appreciate your insight on the matter.

[@ericgulseth74]

Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull isn't bad because of the source material, it's bad because it's a poorly written movie that doesn't hold true to the original 3 movies in tone. The first act is great. Everyone gets upset with the gopher and the fridge, but those things didn't bother me. If the rest of the movie kept along those lines, great, but it went off the rails, going corny and goofy, and relied way too much on green screens to make a big feel. Of course all opinion.

Zombies are a thing because they are metaphors, usually representing the inevitable march of death. But they also allow us to view an unavoidable and disturbing terror, the fear that every human will always act in the worst possible way during the worst of times. But there's always a sliver of hope. People always try to rise above and use the horror to make life better for those around them. There's a bit of an in depth on how the apocalypse is always something humanity focuses on, and they mention why the zombie apocalypse is unique, done by a KZbin channel called overly sarcastic productions that can explain it better than I can here. But it has been done to death so I can understand the dislike of the genre.

[@krops2331]

Man, I love zombies. Such a good metaphor or whatever. It's just downright horrifying yet grinds you down by creeping inevitability.

[@jaysnow701]

This. I think it is also a way to sugar coat the violence. It is not human on human murder everyone. But more a predator prey situation so you can cheer on the protagonist with no guilt for their actions.

[@arcderek]

"usually representing the inevitable march of death." Romero was very clear in his anti-consumerism message of his early films, especially Dawn of the Dead. The pregnant woman representing the fact that children are born into this capitalist world where the only thing that matters is their ability to spend and keep the status quo.

[@arcderek]

@@jaysnow701 "you can cheer on the protagonist with no guilt for their actions." Most zombie media written in a post-9/11 world usually makes it pretty clear that zombies aren't the real threat: other humans are. The message about violence is more so that it makes us question when enough is enough. And when have the characters committed an act so depraved and necessary that it is their own crossing of the Rubicon moment? When has it changed them for the worse and destroyed their own humanity in the process (the abyss staring back), making them worse than the zombies? Can they recover from that? And if so, how?
