It's being re-released in select theaters across the USA
Fricking based. Seeing it this weekend.
at the mountains of madness. It's a book, I don't know if there was ever a good kino made of it but it's excellent source material for one.
Del Toro wanted to make one but studios were reluctant because it's so dark
Was that supposed leaked script for the Del Toro film genuine? Cause if it was, then the movie would have been crap.
So, just like all of his work.
As a Lovecraft fan, I'm kinda glad he never got his hands on it. At the Mountains of Madness needs a subtle touch, not just making CGI of tentacle stuff. Which is not to say that Lovecraft himself was always subtle, of course. Much of Lovecraft's stuff is shlock. But At the Mountains of Madness isn't. It deserves a 5 hour long film done with a Kubrick's sort of misanthropic, eerie touch.
I'm glad that fat frick stayed away.
i was so disappointed when he gave up on it but in retrospect thank fricking god, that fat frick hasn't made a decent movie since hellboy 2
good, frick that hack
Del Toro doesn't seem bold enough to deal with Lovecraft's blunt material, he's a bit of a manchildish director and his politicizing is distracting. Lovecraft has to be filmed as starkly as possible, warts/tentacles and all.
The Beach House, a modest indie movie with cosmic horror undertones, did that, it's very relentless.
Admiral Byrd's adventure there many decades ago.
Scott of the Antarctic (1948) and the Shackleton miniseries with Kenneth Branagh
Maybe the most overrated Antarctic explorer before 21st century.
If we're going old docukino I'd recommend The Great White Silence. It's also about the Scott expedition but it was shot by people who actually took part in the voyage. They have film of Scott and his crew, it's a wonderful doc even though it's a silent film.
First time I saw this film it was the 1933 sound version. 90 Degrees South. I'm glad I started with that because it was shocking to finally hear voices of actual members of the expedition. I think both versions are more or less the same otherwise only with commentary instead of title cards.
Why does it look like a giant brain?
alien vs predator
Nazi UFOs, Nephilim, Pyramids, Arks, and Penguins.
What's not to love?
Wait a minute....
Why won't they let the average man set up a settlement their bros? They won't even let him set foot upon the place in fact? What are they trying to hide?
Also SMT: Strange Journey.

The international community nobody is allowed to get close, no tourists or anything or anyone but people approved by their respective governments.
And we're told it's because of penguins.
There's literally dozens of tourist cruises to Antarctica every summer.
They only go to very specific spots with permission, there's no unchartered tourism to Antartica.
You can't just show up if you feel like it, even though you're not illegally entering any border since it's not part of any country.
Complain that you can't bring your dog too because "how is that possible if it doesn't belong to any country?"
>Complain that you can't bring your dog too because "how is that possible if it doesn't belong to any country?"
I'm who's permission do you need to sail to unclaimed islands in the pacific or atlantic? Nobody's? oh..ok.
I didn't have to because I know this stuff but looking up legal status and treaties regarding the Antarctic took me about 5 seconds.
Ok, why does the Antartic get such special treatment. And if you say penguins I'm gonna be pissed.
Some countries still claim part of the Antarctic, some expeditions were looking for possible resources, sometimes it served as something to get people interested enough to fund expeditions I think only Mawson was really serious about possible colonization and mining but thankfully nothing became of it and in the late 50s and subsequent decades they decided it's too valuable as a nature reserve. The Madrid protocol will be revised one day and it's gonna be a shitshow like in the Arctic.
Fun fact, it’s basically a continent sized tomb.
Slow drift of Antarctica over the pole, everything, every tree, animal etc, died.
Well, a few took to the water to avoid the apocalypse, but not many really.
And you want to go there so you can piss and shidd all over it, bravo.
Are you pretending to be moronic in hopes of someone offering you a spot? Because even though tickets may be expensive and you need to wait a bit there are more remote places. Especially if you just want to visit the huts. But if you want to go to the Amundsen-Scott station they built South Pole Overland Traverse so that even an amateur can get there but expect to get billed if you twist your ankle and they need to rescue your pathetic ass.
Yes, all worth it for penguins. We're all just there to photograph and study penguins.
You can photograph penguins if you want I prefer the adventure.
what the FRICK is going on over there
>LE PYRAMID
Literally none of the sides line up straight
cope
How is that a cope?
You morons analyse inches of snow to find "hidden mysteries" yet ignore the obvious shit disproving it
cope
aliens are in antarctica and theyre going to frick your ass
...The Thing (1982)?
Farce of the penguins
IM FREEZING MY NUTS OFF
I did not care for The Thing, and I thought the practical FX were obnoxious and stupid.
Antarctica is the Ice Wall circumventing the flat earth. That pic is a fake.
Gotta love how any mildly interesting subject on this board gets taken over by schitzos.
I could talk about the Heroic Age for hours. Wish there were more movies about it. I think we still have quite a few but the literature is so rich. People are really missing out. It's so much more interesting than any fake conspiracy. Thankfully schizos mostly attached themselves to less interesting "mechanic age".
how's that amundsen film that came out a couple of years ago?
It's ok but honestly his career is tricky to get on screen unless it's a miniseries. In a movie you probably have to drop the Belgica expedition, his friendship with Cook, the Southwest passage (his time with the Inuit and how he evaded and basically run away from debt collectors). I think the movie showed the South Pole expedition, then Maud (at least some of it), his near death and amazing rescue during the 1925 attemt at the North Pole, Norge and disappearance. That's still a lot and it's good overall but it's not the best format. Amundsen's story is good if we're talking about his entire career because he didn't have that one expedition that deserved a whole movie not counting documentaries.
Didn't realize how big Antartica is.
