Name an interesting movie plot that came out after 2010.
What movir is that
some retard greenlit this
Yeah, did you miss the last 20 years of Hollywood adapting every YA novel series they could to try and recapture the Harry Potter money?
It's stupid but entertaining. The movie fucking sucks though.
No you don't get it, it's actually a powerful allegory to colonialism.
Media literacy much?
Mortal Engines
I only know about this from it showing up on the list of all time biggest bombs
steampunk was always gay and retarded
dieselpunk is the way
It would have worked with 2D or stop motion animation.
*tips fedora*
It's fun, but the movie was bad because the rolling cities are the bad guys. Should have just been hot city on city action.
There are no fedoras in dieselpunk
It's all the same. Even cyberpunk.
is it worth it for the city fights?
are there even any or is it 100% about the gay characters?
I literally somehow watched this movie twice and can't remember anything about it.
yes, it is known that cyberpunk movies are about flying steam trains and quirky girls dressed in 19th century burlesque
If this was a book people would live it
It's fun in 3D. Only in 3D though!
Here's your hideously disfigured heroine, bro.
The movie was based on a book.
This is what smart cities will be like soon. They already exist underground.
they couldnt even spell the title right
get out
What about unleadedpunk?
Cyberpunk actually has some "meaning" to it and earns the "punk" moniker. Steampunk is bereft of any deeper meaning than what fat ugly women and men, invariably homosexuals, can glean from sticking clock innards on their faces and squeezing their goyslopshaped bodies into tight, anachronistic clothing in order to ape a retarded and meaningless fantasy version of a time period that would've seen them all cast out of society or hanged for their degeneracy. Cyberpunk touches on themes of corporate dystopia, transhumanism, urban and societal decay and the resulting ennui befitting such a dark future.
Dieselpunk is the same empty thing as steampunk but more obscure and since it's from the same period as the dreaded nazis the aforementioned fat homo sois would never even consider it. Even as an aesthetic concept steam and diesel are empty beyond a handful of art pieces and 1 or 2 films and only dysgenic white detritus that think showing up to a renaissance fair in "steampunk" getup is a good idea give a shit about it. It went nowhere precisely because it cannot catch on because it is empty.
It's obviously about the tans experience, chud.
Okay nerd.
You missed the most hilarious
London, the most multicultural city in the UK nowadays, is represented as all white (because they are the bad guys, OFC)
A walled city somewhere at the border between Europe and Asia (so... the Caucasus?) is represented as a Seattle-like melting pot
The simple fact that a non-moving city can perfectly exist and thrive makes the starting point of the story completely nonsensical: "the age of moving city is over" well yeah, what was the point of that to begin with?
The good guys are protecting a wall, as per the plot, but you can't have "protect our borders" as the moral of the story in the current year
so the walls/city ends up being destroyed in the process of beating the bad guys (destroying London), because "we need to tear down the walls that separates us". This has zero negative consequences for either of the inhabitants of these cities. Instead they suddenly get along and learn to live together
Solarpunk is real
Harry potter? They were trying to recapture the hunger games money and that venture ended with the 5th ring or whatever that thing with the hitfirl actress was
yeah it's just trying to cash in on the hunger games trend of young adult novels with pseudo leftist social commentary.
its a metaphor for capitalism and stealing natural resources and shit.
True enough about steampunk, but the LARPers have simply overshadowed that steampunk is supposed to be thematically about exploitation and the clashing of the industrial revolution with common folk and the "old way". Dieselpunk, very easily, has it's main them as simply Great Wars. It's all about overuse of technology in warfare.
Cyberpunk has just as many LARPers, it's just that it at least has popular media to explain the themes, unlike most steampunk and dieselpunk where its just an aesthetic.
Basically, they lack well known media. I could name some good ones I personally like, but they simply aren't nearly as popular as anything cyberpunk related.
The YA adaptation years produced some really hilarious Hollywood missteps. Bookfags seething, random actors losing their careers, multiple film series stalling out at one entry. What a time it was.
most steampunk and dieselpunk where its just an aesthetic.
Yeah a lot of it is just retro-futurism.
we want a story set in x time period, but we still want guns and robots and shit.
reminds me of the anime decadence
its pretty nice
The actual concept of Tenet is very good. The plot they surrounded it with an the execution of that concept are disappointing.
What's wrong with it
Ripoff of Stepford Wives which is why the bit makes no sense in Get Out
It is. I did love it. And the prequels about the quirky teenage girl tech genius.
Guns are usually less common in steampunk than the 19th century. It's one of my pet peeves with the genre.
I saw it in Imax 3D. Not the best 3D I've seen unfortunately.
80s 3D movies utterly mog this sort of thing.
B-but that's a good idea OP? Reminds me of Half Life 2
I cant think of dumber idea for a movie, yet some hollywood retard greenlit this for $200M
It was greenlit on the clout of Peter Jackson. Don't blame some anonymous Hollywood suit.
The premise is obviously metaphorical, and you look like an idiot criticising it for not making sense literally.
no i was telling you to get out of the thread
Gah! She's so ugly and disfigured. Yuck! She should cover up that horribly disfiguring, and not at all unique and fetching facial scar, the one that just ever so gently zig zags across her otherwise perfect face, like a bolt of lightning piercing a cloudless sky. Wrap her up with a mysterious mask so we don't have to see her wretchedness.
They just want the golden age of piracy on airships.
the golden age of piracy on airships
We had one of those. It lasted about a week.
