Mega64 Movie Club: Zack Snyder's Justice League
Added 2021-04-23 11:15:37 +0000 UTCIt's FINALLY HERE! No, not the Snyder Cut. It's us TALKING about the Snyder Cut. Pretty amazing considering NOBODY else on the internet has done this yet! In Mega64's true groundbreaking fashion, we are once again the FIRST to do something completely revolutionary. We give our reactions (some of us right after the credits rolled) to the film in a format completely new to Movie Club... that's right, we're ALL in person! Do you like this or like it better the other way? Let us know- just don't tell us you prefer that "JOSSTICE LEAGUE" stuff!!

I saw this and started laughing before even watching the video..

2021-05-01 20:04:44 +0000 UTCI think this format is better. Derrick's audio was just a little worse than everyone else, but not a big deal.

2021-04-30 20:53:41 +0000 UTCWoah, this movie turned Derrick into the Joker.

2021-04-28 05:16:28 +0000 UTCI have never felt so much second hand embarrassment than watching this lex luthor, glad I’m not alone

2021-04-26 19:13:48 +0000 UTCWhile I loved the movie, I am always down for your honest thoughts and opinions.

2021-04-26 17:53:11 +0000 UTCMuch like the new format but like it has been said, it would be even better with quick access to trivia.

2021-04-26 14:48:15 +0000 UTCWell we already know they liked Uncut Gems, they even mentioned it in this episode!

2021-04-24 21:31:20 +0000 UTC^ agreed. The audio was quiet in some parts. Derrick’s audio especially. The one thing I will miss is the phone buzzing into Derrick immediately having his finger pressed against the camera to silence it lmao

2021-04-24 12:01:31 +0000 UTCThe back and forth is definitely better in this format and everyone seemed more engaged as they usually are on a podcast, the prepared and in promptu movie trivia was lacking this episode but I think it was only due to the movie in question and I dunno if it's only me but the audio is waaaaaay lower than usual so I had a very hard time trying to listen, sometimes it was only mumble and I coulnd't make out what they were saying, maybe doing this in the main podcast setup would be better.

2021-04-24 08:25:18 +0000 UTCHey y'all! Love the show. Here are some cool movies of varying quality I'd love to see y'alls thoughts on: A New Leaf (1971), Aeon Flux (2005), Desert Hearts (1985), Edge of Seventeen (2018), I Shot Andy Warhol (1996), Love & Basketball (2000), Nine To Five (1980), Paris Is Burning (1990), Shiva Baby (2020), The Birdcage (1996), The Foul King (2000), The Love Witch (2016), The Red Shoes (1948), The Secret Garden (1993), The Watermelon Woman (1996), and finally To Wong Foo, Thanks For Everything! Julie Newmar (1995). While I was eagerly awaiting this episode, I decided to test out my new keyboard and make a spreadsheet so I could get an idea of what to recommend. Before anyone asks, no I don't have anything better to do. Of the 42 movies covered so far, about half of them have been from the '90s and '00s. The most common year is 1995 with 4 films, 11 in the '90s total, but only 9 films pre-'80s. Only one documentary has been featured. There have been no repeat directors, but two Davids, two Marks, four Roberts, and two Stans. The only repeat writer is Adam Sandler. Only 4 films (9%) have had women directors: Jupiter Ascending, Private Parts (Betty Thomas), Billy Madison (Tamra Davis), and Free Solo (Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi and her husband Jimmy Chin). Three of these four have male protagonists. As for writers: the Wachowski Sisters, Babe Pig in the City (Judy Morris), It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World (Tania Rose and her husband William co-wrote), Twelve Monkeys (Janet Peoples and her husband David co-wrote), and two women in a large room for Borat 2. These movies have some space for female coded characters. Looking at representation of people of color, just 19% feature writers/directors that aren't white, or of European descent: Dolemite (director D'Urville Martin, majority Black production crew), Ghost in the Shell (director Mamoru Oshii, a Japanese film), The Sixth Sense (writer/director M NIGHT BABY!!!), What We Do In The Shadows (written/directed by Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement), The Great Wall (director Zhang Yimou, six (6!) white writers), Ghosts (MJ is credited as a writer), Fast and the Furious (writer Ken Li, three white co-writers), Enter the Dragon (producer Bruce Lee, two white co-producers), Twelve Monkeys, and Free Solo. These are my calculations based on 20 minutes of looking at crews on Letterboxd. Thanks for taking the time to read :^)

2021-04-24 04:25:36 +0000 UTCStar of Close Encounters of the Third Kind's own, Francois Truffaut directed The 400 Blows. I have known this for years and I also have never seen it.

2021-04-23 22:03:07 +0000 UTCIn person is great, but movie club has been solid from the jump. Thank you guys for doing this, always look forward to these.

2021-04-23 21:56:13 +0000 UTCIn person is better and I've always really enjoyed the fight choreography and visual story telling of Zack Snyder and that s it.

2021-04-23 21:48:12 +0000 UTCI would leave the other format on the table if you ever need to do that for easier scheduling. I don't think it would bum anyone out too badly or anything like that. This obviously worked well though. I hope we can get a guest appearance from some of the other Mega64 guys here/there eventually too.

2021-04-23 20:13:55 +0000 UTCYes I’m so happy the boyz are together in person, the way god intended

2021-04-23 12:15:27 +0000 UTCI like this format in terms of the quick back and forth discussion, but I feel like it might make it harder to pull up all the extra movie trivia stuff that I loved getting when you did it from home. So, this format + all the movie trivia stuff = best combo.
