love the part about events and things. very detailed

[@DeconvertedMan]

All you zombies is a great story, and so is the movie Predestination. Vampire's kiss. A THEN B THEN C THEN D!

[@Minecraft_at_Night]

Predestination holds up under scrutiny, Tenet does not. As someone who adored Memento as a young man I found Tenet to be a lazier version of that. Great video guys! Miss your Star Trek stuff 😢

[@TalkernateHistory]

That "all paths lead to Mt. Fuji" thing sounds very similar to the spiral pattern the bird from The Giant Claw was travelling in. Good to see they decided to steal from one of the greatest Kaiju movies

[@reverseangle]

Thanks for bringing up my traumatic memories from watching The Giant Claw. --Robert

14:27 Stop, he's already dead.

[@ogto]

just FYI, one of the reasons FF7r took so long is that it was initially developed by CyberConnect2, but they brought the development in-house to Square Enix after 1-2 years, basically starting over from scratch. so yeah, these games take a long time, but FF7r was a bit a of a different situation.

Excellent run through, guys! Loving the extended time. 🍺🍺

[@ryanmason2502]

Been a Godzilla fan for 40+, the odd thing about these G films is, I got no desire to rewatch the fights. It feels like there is nothing new to catch a 2nd time.

[@chrisdanks6447]

Capricorn One,Boys from Brazil,Hitchcocks the birds.

[@mr.a8315]

I *love* 'The Boys From Brazil' (1978), it's a pulp fiction classic 70s thriller, quite OTT. Superb score by Jerry Goldsmith. A few years ago, I obtained the original 1970s pressing vinyl soundtrack and the front cover has been hand-signed by Gregory Peck, Laurence Olivier and James Mason. I got from a USA dealer who obtained it from the estate of a famous autograph collector; Clark Gesner. From Wiki; Clark Gesner (March 27, 1938 - July 23, 2002) was an American composer, songwriter, author, and actor. He is best known for composing the musical You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown, based on the Charles M. Schulz comic strip Peanuts.

I enjoyed Capricorn One and The Birds, I will read The Boys From Brazil at some point because I know it's Ira Levin, and I will then try to watch the movie. --Robert

[@ninjalokust]

Wow, tell us how you really feel. (i hate people who say this line)

[@Snigglefugg]

Saying that paying for each installment of FF7 remake is to pay for something incomplete each time... couldn't you make the same criticism of any Lord of the Rings film? Any Marvel movie? Star Wars?

[@DeconvertedMan]

:)

[@Snigglefugg]

I find it way more irritating to call the creature in Alien films "the alien" than to call it "the xenomorph". I hate when people say "the alien in Alien". It sounds so dumb. I don't care if xenomorph doesn't make sense. Lots of naming systems don't make much sense. It sounds better.

[@mr.a8315]

To avoid confusion, I like to call it the thing. 👍
