I am the fly who dreams of the spider
Rewatching Snowpiercer, and I caught how Gilliam was reticent about the idea of trying to get to the engine and kill Wilford. And pointedly asks what Curtis will do then [to make things any better than they are now].
Also amusing was how Edgar thought he had memories of things like steak, and I'm looking side-eyed at him having memories of his mother.
After that incredible story near the end, I have a hard time buying the actor as 17-18/18-19 years old. I suppose I can handwave it as a hard existence making people appear older than they are. But sheesh, the actor is almost 30 now.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Yeah, Julie, that story confused me because I thought Curtis and Edgar were the same age.

Julie and PC, I had the same reaction.

Okay, I have a horrible memory lane movie question:
70's/80's flick. Missionaries. Non-white country. Lady missionary gets raped (offscreen) and then has her face blown off.
Yes, this imagery has been popping up in my head of late, I can't begin to understand why, but I feel if I identify it, I can move on from it. It's awful.
Also, why was I able to watch this when I was probably five years old? Even if I was ten, wtf?

Any word on whether to go 3D (or even IMAX 3D) for Guardians of the Galaxy? I'm thinking Saturday matinee.

It sounds like IMAX 3D might be cool for this one because it changes aspect ratios like The Dark Knight, even though it wasn't filmed with IMAX cameras. Seems like the new thing is to film with 3D conversion in mind rather than specifically film in 3D.
To 3D or Not to 3D says definitely do 3D. Alas, I'm seeing it in 2D.

Thanks! I'll probably end up making a spur of the moment decision based on when I can get to the theater and how sold out they may be, but IMAX 3D does seem like a potentially awesome option.
