What did tv/ think of Oblivion? Just re-watched it and thought it was quite cool
I was really pissed it didnt get an oscar nomination for sound editing for all the little robot noises and stuff
it's shit
why?
It’s one of my favourite sci fis ever and I normally am not inclined the newer more polished sci fi movies. Known cast was probably the worst thing (apart from cruise, mainly freedman was too distracting)
One of the best OS ever made though
I would have like a bit more Tet, it is good film though. Fun Scifi
Yeah same. Especially since the tet was actually pretty cool when we did get to see it. Mass effect vibes
I didn't like the twist. I thought the original storyline was much more interesting.
The twist felt like something you'd make up to save on production costs
Yeah fair point but the antagonists would be predictable humanoid aliens yet again. The twist made it more realistic. If there was anything powerful enough to travel space and harvest energy from planets it wouldn't be sending organic life. It would be some kind of self aware AI. Using the victim planets life forms as DNA fodder is genius.
Whats the original story line?
extremely generic and bad
I thought the movie Oblivion was very well done. The acting was great, the story was interesting, and the visuals were stunning. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for a good science fiction movie.
Hello GPT-3. How are you today?
I liked it. Still prefer Edge of Tomorrow however
You are correct.
I NEED TO KNOW NOW
One of Tom's worst flicks. Completely forgettable trash.
Jack Reacher? Mummy?
Reacher was fine. The main problem with it was if you knew the source material Cruise wasn't an appropriate casting. If you were ignorant of the source material it's a perfectly good action/detective flick.
It's underrated for what it is, but still 7/10 scifi imo
Filters normies pretty good
I really like it, even if the story is a bit weak and other than the original trio of Melissa Leo, Andrea Riseborough and Tom Cruise some of the acting is a bit sus.
Amazing visuals, aesthetic design choices, sound design.
And the soundtrack by M83 and Joe Trapanese (who also worked with Daft Punk on the Tron Legacy soundtrack) is brilliant, one of my favourite ever.
oh yea Apple Appliance Uprising
>and in the niiiiiiight
>you hear me falling
>you hear me faaaalliiiiing
Boner inducing soundtrack
Listen to M83
Good fun movie with an interesting twist. Nothing mindblowing (and definitely inspired by Moon), but it didn't have to be.
kosinski can't direct for shit
I liked it, but I never understood why it's called Oblivion.
another tiny tom cruise move. Too much of a narcissist to do other movies that don't have him as the main character who is amazing and invincible.
Tom Cruise is the most overrated homosexual in all of Hollywood.
t. Failing Brad Pitt
Ad Astra was great too but not as good as even Oblivion.
Ad Astra was like a remake of Interstellar 2014 but not as gay.
Yeah what’s funny is that Ad Astra are both as unrealistic; difference is Ad Astra is actually making an effort to make space weird and otherworldly while Interstellar tried hard but fails and ends up worse for it. At least the original Interstellar was original in that sense.
This but completely swap these movies around the other way
>Entire plot is based on finding a planet as similar to earth as possible
>Is criticised for not being otherworldly
I love that the opening credits kinda spoil the ending.
Based on the poster it appears very generic so I don't blame people for passing it up. It's a fun little romp though. It's nothing outstanding but it never gives the impression it was trying to be. Not like MI:II. I rewatched the first 3 MI movies the other day for the first time since their releases and I don't remember the second one being such a fricking turd. All of the John Woo trademarks with none of the soul.
Mission: Impossible 2 is really, really bad but people here inexplicably love to defend it, I can only assume because they only remember the dueling motorcycles and forget how fricking boring everything leading up to that scene is. I challenge anyone who has actually watched the movie recently to tell me with a straight face that it's good or even entertaining.
rock climb good
stealing chimera good

you just have garbage taste. back to your marvel threads
You’re a fricking moron, sorry MI2 isn’t some super slick spy thriller (which MI barely is)
The whole part with the underground humans sucks pure ass but the rest is pretty cool. You should check out Line of Fire/Only the Brave from the same director, it’s pretty nice as well.
Decent; a close second to Edge of Tomorrow; with War of the Worlds a ways behind.
Best theme turn, too...
nice link gay
Learn to Internet (and punctuate), transvestite.
thank for the proper link, Black person
do you have the song that plays during frick you sally scene?
Pretty certain that's "I'm Sending You Away"
Where's Minority Report land in that ranking?
I don't really care about the story but the setting, visuals and audio were great, it's an enjoyable 7/10 viewing, people made it out to be absolutely unwatchable back then but looking at the sci-fi movies today it's even better as there's nothing even half as good today, I would even say it's the last sci-fi movie of worth.
Wait Edge of Tomorrow 2014 is, I thought Oblivion was a 2016 movie but it came a year earlier in 2013.
I remember a lot of people shit talking it but I have no idea why, I always thought it was an enjoyable solid film. But yeah I've seen some people say things like "we didn't know how good we had it back then" in regards to modern culture etc. so maybe that's part of why many people changed their minds about it, in which case maybe they didn't hate it as much as they pretended to.
There was a trend in the early 2010s where sci Fi movies got relentlessly shat on if they were anything less than great. This, Prometheus, Avatar, Kelvin Trek, and Elysium were all hated by movie/sci Fi nerds despite the worst of those movies being okay at worst.
Yeah I agree with that, they weren't terrible but they didn't need to be great for me to like them either, as for those Prometheus was a decent and enjoyable film, Alien Covenant was the one that shat the bed big time imo. I even warmed to Kelvin Trek a bit but it really shouldn't have gotten any sequels because it feels like it really overstayed it's welcome. It's never felt like the quality of sci-fi TV and films has ever really changed over the years to me, we seem to get a real mix of stuff, some great and some shit like new Star Trek. Getting into the trend of nitpicking things until there's nothing left leads you to not being able to appreciate anything, it's good for people to remind themselves of this especially now.
Except prometheus and nuTrek are shit and the rest is mediocre.
Stop lowering your standards, start demanding better
I can't say I'd give a frick if either were wiped out of existence but Prometheus wasn't anywhere near as irredeemably shit as some people here act like it is, that's just the effect of Alien Covenant being utter trash that it ruins any chance of redeeming the series.
Prometheus is great. There's a reason 99% of the cirticism consisted of "lmao why did he look at the snek, why didn't she run to the side", Cineama Sins tier bullshit
To me, it was like the Truman show in space.
Cool visuals.
Probably the dumbest alien invasion plot ever.
Cruise saved it. Not a bad flick but it needed something.
One of the first movies to use tracked rear projection absolutely fascinating movie https://youtu.be/i9m6KzRMWnA
Insane it's a decade ahead of its time
Came out soon after Moon and was lampooned here as being a big budget rip off.
Moon is predictable from the get go, I liked it but at the same time the visuals were not strong enough to hold the paper thin setting. Specially the outside Moon shots, Ad Astra did those better.
I agree entirely. I much prefer Oblivion but Cinemaphile was Moon obsessed for years.
You immediately knew he was a clone? Stop lying.
Underrated kino. The kind of smaller scale sci-fi that doesn't get made enough, it has a total cast of what, four characters? Maybe five?
Also M83 is great and Kurylenko is beautiful.
Not CGI, these old school designers are probably retired by now.
but we all agree this was the real kino right?
the happy ending was forced and sucked
the ending was great though
why does that look like a faceapp smile
Tom himself is the progenitor of the faceapp smile. It's all derived from him.
It's less forced than the source materials incredibly contrived grimdark bad ending, sadly
It was alright. A bit too convenient, but fine.
This. All in all it was a great adaption, with a lot of small nods and details that isnt explained or put front and center from the source, which in turn shows that the writers actually gave a shit about the original.
What happy ending? She doesn't recognize him. He smiles through his tears as the song kicks in
Manga was better.
The aliens felt like an afterthought.
There were aliens? Honestly the movie is so painfully forgettable I can't even say anymore what is what about. I just remember old wise Black trope. Might rewatch this just see if it holds up
yeah
frick off weeb
The end song with m83 and susanne sundfor is amazing
Shit movie. Horrendous collection of cliches and nonsensical writing.
BUT the ideas are good, it's visually appealing and soundrack is great.
I "hate" it becasue it's wasted potential
Durr I am a spacefaring intelligent, I Cannae scan for nukes, Durr.
I laughed audibly at "wait that's not the human you said you were going to bring".
The 'nuke' was one of their own power cores.
>hmm, this clone had been behaving weirdly lately
>eh I'm just going to invite him to my CPU
>those energy readings from his plane I gave him (which for some reason is capable of space flight)? I'm sure it's fine
Maybe Earth was Tet's first planet it tried to conquer.
Those planes regularly carry those power cores, it's literally their job, why would it be out of place?
And he only got in because he successfully fooled the lie detector test, the Tet was an inch away from blowing him to pieces.
>humans know lie detectors are fallible and so they can't be used as evidence in court
>supposedly superior alien intelligence capable of interstellar travel doesn't
Even worse
This movie's got an incredible aesthetic, and Kosinski and Cruise seem like good fits for each other in how they both love practical effects.
I don't remember if I watched it or not, is this the one where he's a clone by himself in some spaceship thing?
>ten thousand grinning Tom Cruises step out of an alien landing ship
If you didn't get a massive boner in the theater when that scene played, you don't know shit about Television & Films.
>mfw i was 11
>one of my first boners from a movie
wtf, why did it have to be this one
also sorry if this triggers any oldgays
Oh yeah, and the funniest part is that Tet apparently did all of that shit to steal our water.
i never saw it will i like it? i LOVE edge of tomorrow and all mi movies and tom cruise
Good visuals, bad plot. Get out before the movie's (dumb) tweests are spoiled for you.
Honestly i loved their base in the sky seemed so comfy plus top tier redhead waifu.
>tfw evil alien intelligence moonlights as interior/exterior designer
>It killed 7 bilion guys.
The tech seems comfy and grounded but the random monuments and buildings buried fully made no fricking sense and were moronic
They mentioned the surface got completely fricked up by Earths gravity being changed by the destruction of the moon
Psaki-sexy-time.
Just a daily reminder that they took this/TR3N away from you because of "Jimmy Carter of Mars" and "Forgettoland" tanking. Pixar directors can't into live action.
mediocre
Pretty cool movie, that reminds me of calm sci-fi books from the 60s I liked being a child. Clifford Simak, Stanisław Lem, etc.
Pretty unusual how they didn't transform it into the usual shitty action-alien-like movie.
any shows similar to leftovers
havent watch shit in years
Blandcore sci-fi. Basically proto Dunc. I gave up on the movie when he saw the clone of himself
Love this movie, dont care what anyone says. The story is just okay but for the music and visuals alone, its worth a watch. Beautiful movie.
