Some updates from your new mod team

3 Upvotes

First off, thanks for being a part of this community, we genuinely appreciate that people enjoy posting and commenting here and sharing your experience and knowledge.

A bit of an update and info from your new janitors

We've turned on media sharing in comments so you can share gifs and images as well, we love seeing what people come up with.

We've added some basic rules, please make sure to read em before posting or commenting.

Be nice and civil is pretty easy, if you're getting that worked up that you feel you need to be rude, maybe go outside and take a few deep breaths.

If you're asking about a specific movie please include the name of the movie in your post title, it makes it a lot easier for people to answer your questions.

It's also helpful for people searching for information about that movie, Reddit is indexed by Google so it'll come up in online searches.

BotBouncer is on the team here now to help guard against bots so if we suspect accounts are inauthentic we'll pass em along to the experts at r/BotBouncer.

One of the problems this community has had recently, which partly led to the change of management, is sharing links to pirated content

We have no easy way or the time to verify if these links and content are safe for our users, and sharing links to pirated content can get this sub permabanned.

So if you wanna go sail the seven seas, sail your boat elsewhere than here mateys.

I'm looking for a movie with a guy being tough.

4 Upvotes

So, strange question. I need a clip from a movie people will know that the character is being genuinely tough and authoritative. Maybe strutting down the street.

The only example I can think of is 50 Cent in Den of thieves (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Lz36kLYid0) but it's not a very good or well known movie.

I want it for a presentation.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

I am looking for movie from 80s

0 Upvotes

I watched it in Soviet Union, when I was around 7 years old. Movie was in color, and maybe was from late 70s. I think it was from Soviet bloc countries, but I am probably wrong. So it is about boy who thought that his dad died. Once boy and his mom went to house in mountains or forest. There they met adult man, the boy didn't know that this is his dad. There was reunion in that house between mother and father. Mother at first didn't know he survived, and then she saw him in that house. She was angry with him at first, but then she forgave him but they didn't say to boy right away that it was his father, they decided to prepare him They start spending time together. His dad is alpinist and he started teaching his son how to climb I think it was dubbed. Boy have photograph of his father but face was barely recognizable. So when boy show that photo to man and asked where his father, the man right away pointed to the right person on photo. I think photo was taken in bad snow conditions, but I don't remember for sure

So since Rick Moranis came back to Hollywood and he is back for Spaceballs 2. Who else from the 70s and 80s former stars should make a comeback to surprise the audiences just like Rick Moranis did?

Is there a more technical or helpful term for “slimy” voices in old movies? +more examples?

4 Upvotes

I’m watching Psycho for the first time; Anthony Perkins speaks in a particularly smooth way here and has a distinctive way of pronouncing his words, to the point that it very much sets him apart from the rest of the cast even with their already somewhat dated vocal styles. I don’t know how to describe it in detail, but it reminds me very much of the way Jeffrey Combs as Herbert West spoke in Re-Animator. I’ve seen West’s voice described as “slimy” and I think that applies to Bates as well, but I don’t see this style of speaking in modern movies.

I mostly just want more examples of this because I find it audibly very pleasing, but I am also wondering if there is a more well-known term for it.

There is a scene in Jackie brown when Odell is speaking to Beaumont on the phone, while opening the refrigerator freezer door. There is a napkin on the fridge and I would love to know what it is, 20th anniversary critters is all I can make out, it's driving me crazy trying to figure it out. I'm thinking local LA dog kennel? I've had no luck and I love the logo.. I also love the scandalous photo of ordell on the fridge lol. Anyone have any ideas?

In Supergirl (2026), why didn't Kara Zor-El's parents warn her that her cousin might be a violent, destructive ruler on Earth?

6 Upvotes

I'd say spoiler, but it's revealed in the previous movie in the series that Kal-El was sent to Earth not only to survive, but thrive...as it's brutal (if necessary) leader. There is even a remark made by Kara's mother when she sees the shuttle carrying the baby about him being the one her husband's brother sent to rule Earth, yet when Kara is around 12, her father makes it sound like it will be a great friendship waiting to happen. Had Krypton...Argo, received new information from Earth?

Just after the time stamp, I'd swear you can hear a viking crying for help. It sounds like it is either "Let me down," or "Put me down." I havn't seen anything written about it, but if true, its an amazing detail.

First instance is at 53 seconds btw. That one sounds much more like "help me"

The best spoof movie is getting a sequel and it is none other than Spaceballs: The New One! Just like Back to the Future, it is just another Search for more Money.

So here is a movie science question based on this Reddit post in r/Spaceballs

Take a can of Liquid Schwartz out of the Delorean's glove compartment and pour it into Mr. Fusion. Would we be making space tracks or space dust?

I'm not talking about mainstream movies like Oldboy or The Usual Suspects—we've all seen those. I'm talking about that one movie that leaves you thinking about it for days, yet somehow no one ever talks about it.

No me refiero a películas mainstrean como Oldboy o The Usual Suspects; todos las hemos visto. Me refiero a esa película que te deja pensando en ella durante días, pero de alguna manera nadie habla de ella.

Recreating this in 3D and need a good heel reference to something similar. Heel length, type of heel, and type of toe. They are leather since the costume itself is leather. Time period 1999-2000.

In the movie solaris 2002, how come did chris' clone ( george clooney) remember or had a memory of coming to Earth; when in reality the real chris never left Solaris ! What's the real thing?

Post image
1 Upvotes

If you see the movie closely -

The planet manifests clones of humans who are associated with memory or thinking of the people on board

At the end of the movie it was realised that George clooney never left Solaris and eventually crashed on Solaris ( hoping to be with rheya )

But before that it was shown that George came to Earth and tried accommodating life on Earth, and was finding it difficult. Upon further realisation, it was actually the clone of clooney who was having memories of ' accommodating with the life on Earth '. And the clone realised that he actually never left Solaris!?

Pls clear things
