I think for me it’s alien: covenant. I was really interested in the ideas explored in prometheus and covenant just expanded on them. I don’t get much into the details of why it is or isn’t a good movie.

Luckily, though, HBO ran raised by wolves which really delved into ideals about AI and planet seeding etc. So that itch got way scratched even if the run was cut short.

    ‘but it’s not historically accurate!’

    Y’get to see heath ledger in armor win the girl, bust heads, and have a grand time doing it! All to a solid soundtrack.

      The lack of historical accuracy also isn’t due to a lack of research, but a deliberate style and tone choice, as demonstrated at the very beginning of the movie when the trumpeters play We Will Rock You and the crowd claps and stomps along.

        Tell me about it. Anybody who saw the first few minutes of the film and still expected the rest to be historicaly accurate should probably get tested for autism. The director made it clear from the very start that A Knight’s Tale is satire.

        Really, cool. I’ll have to watch it one of these days, if it ever comes up on streaming

          Cancel all your subscriptions and look into Stremio + Torrentio + Real-Debrid. For $3/mo you could have any show or movie you want, streamed directly to your TV, without having to wait for it to “come up on streaming”.

            Thanks, that certainly makes it seem like a fun movie. I wonder how many ren faires did that back then
