What was the last movie you watched? (2014 Edition)


Recommended Posts

Divergent (2014)

 

6.5/10

 

Highly predictable movie. I usually don't complain about that but in the case of this movie the predictability of the story did not help. Overall i'm sad to say The Ender's Game was slightly better ... and The Ender's Game was not great at all :(

Hopefully they improve for the next three movies in the series.

My wife and I went to the movie theaters for the first time in about 4 years.  The only reason we went was because we got a gift card.  Any way, we saw Into The Storm.  Those who have seen Twister will enjoy the updated version of it. 

Godzilla 2014 Military - 3/10 - I didn't mind the military part but they kept interrupting the movie with Monsters nearly fighting. Thankfully, when they fought at the very end it didn't happen for very long. Awesome special effects.
 

I'm glad they killed off the only redeeming quality of the movie in the first 20 minutes. I was starting to enjoy it, and I don't think that was their intention.

Except for The Fifth Element, obviously.

OH so you're familiar with the term "multi-pass"

 

Ok so here's how it works... i have my password for neowin right, just my one password, ergo it's a "unipass"

 

If you give me your password, I would have two, so it would be  "duo pass"

 

IF rappeh gave me his, then i'd have a "Multi-pass".

 

I promise i'll just look here and there, ban a couple of peeps for fun...

 

So how about it, you know, for fans sake :P

The Zero Theorem

 

While the movie was visually striking and well made. I was very confused the whole time and I am still not entirely certain what was going on with it.

 

6/10 

 

Tried to watch it.   I like WTF movies, but this was just out of it.

    • Good point Anti-spoofing protection for cloud mailboxes Anti-spoofing technology in Microsoft 365 specifically examines forgery of the From header field (also known as the 5322.From address, From address, or P2 sender), because email clients show the From header value as the message sender. When Microsoft 365 has high confidence the From header is forged, the message is identified as spoofed. https://learn.microsoft.com/en...g-protection-spoofing-about
    • I sort of agree with you on that. I had a telescope - a real hefty thing, although only around 500CHF - that got me so fascinated about the stars and planets. I would stare for hours, amazed that I could see the craters of the moon or the rings of Saturn in "realtime" (quotations because, y'know, speed of light and whatnot). A friend of mine has a telescope like the one mentioned in the review, and the pictures are amazing to look at. But there is something missing for me. I may as well just go to NASA's website and look through their gallery.
    • As opposed to catching bad press because it's the engine's fault? The engine has all the tools a dev needs to optimize their game, Epic isn't gonna hold their hand to make sure they use them. Also, Epic isn't forcing anyone to use Lumen, Nanite or super high resolution meshes and textures. Just because Nanite can render meshes with millions of polygons doesn't mean you should use it like that, in fact, Epic recommends you avoid doing that. Most of the stuttering can easily be fixed by cutting down on unique materials by using master materials, using instanced meshes or combining meshes, generating a thorough PSO cache to allow shader pre-compilation and also managing what must be loaded and unloaded at runtime. It's up to the developer to set all that up properly and no the engine can't do all that for you that's not how any of this works.
