But yes, .lnk has no legitimate use cases in a torrent.

22·1 month agoThis is not an issue on Linux or Macs.
Even on windows, if you play the movie (so M2TS with external audio and subs), you would simply get subtitles with the PowerShell code as subtitle text at one point.
They are way over hyping this issue.

43·1 month agoBased on the title, I first thought subtitles embedded in a container (like MKV) could be used to launch malware.
Thankfully this is not the case. I was really worried for a second.
This honestly has nothing to do with video formats or even torrents.
If you are pirating you should have enough common sense to not click on random .lnk files.
Most reputable trackers/indexers don’t allow .lnk files or even random raw M2TS files.

2·1 month agoI am not from the US (although I’ve lived there for several years), thankfully the blue/red pill thing is not that relevant where I live.
Not a fan of those type of polemics at all.
I generally enjoy b-movies (especially 90s sci-fi), so The Matrix seems fine, even though it could have been way better. It’s very superficial and they never really explored the truly mind bending stuff.
I am normally sceptical of remake/reboots, but I would love a psychedelic remake of The Matrix, with a bigger focus on the early part of the movie where Neo feels disconnected from reality. The 90s retro vibe would be the cherry on top.
Animatrix was great, some parts were not particularly memorable, others were top notch. The Second Renaissance could have been a feature in of itself, same for A Detective Story.
I would even go as far as saying The Animatrix as a whole is a better take on the Matrix concept than the OG movie itself.

3·1 month agoI see what you mean and I generally agree, I just don’t think it was full on bad.
Don’t get me wrong, I rewatched it with a 10+ year gap since the last viewing and I thought it would be better. It didn’t have that same intensity that was there in the last viewing in the late 2000s.
But it’s not full on bad.
But yes, these matters are subject to a degree.

I have mixed feelings about 28 Years Later, but I do appreciate that they seemed to have tried to do something different, even if it didn’t fully work out.

movies@piefed.social•Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson to Return for ‘Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping’
42·1 month agoHunger Games: The Middle age Fajita Conspiracy
I’ve actually never seen any of the Hunger Games movies. I have seen many of the other YA dystopia movies from the early to mid 2010 (scary how that period is becoming “old school”).
The divergent series was sort of entertaining, but also very trashy. It had a teenage fanfic type vibe. I like the Maze Runner series, the first had a lot of potential; when I first saw it, I was hoping for a modern take on Lord of the Flies mixed in with Arthur Clarke’s Rama series. Didn’t really work out like that. :)

4·1 month agoWhile I agree with you that The Matrix really hit the Zeitgeist, I wouldn’t call it a bad or even mediocre movie. It’s a solid sci-fi cyberpunk action movie.
I personally wish they explored the early part a bit more where Neo is wondering about reality. The action is great, but a contrast with broader discussions behind the meaning of The Matrix would only make the action even more intense. The part about “Neo (The One)” and Trinity’s and Morpheus’ relationship to the prophecy was really weak though. I thought it sucked even as a late pre-teen.

1·1 month agoFor Alien: Covenant and Prometheus I strongly recommend the Ninth Circle and Chaos edition fan edits respectively, it makes both movies far more coherent and enjoyable.
Prometheus, with the Chaos Edition fanedit, in particular becomes a completely different experience with characters behaving much more rationaly and viewers getting more insight into their personality and motivations.
It is strange that Scott did seem to have filmed more coherent versions of both films (most of the content is from deleted/alt scenes), but then decided to go with whatever we got for the theatrical versions.
I actually enjoyed the theatrical versions as well, but I love sci-fi/horror and I will watch almost any movie that combines these genres. That being said, many parts of the theatrical version of Prometheus were comically stupid, almost like an unintentional parody.
Alien: Covenant also had a lot of stupid moments.

More often than not, for niche and/or non-english content, this is indeed the case. I also don’t see the big deal with supporting a smaller publisher.

8·1 month agoDoes the future seem bleak? Are we going to be stuck with shitty WebDLs for most new content?
For mainstream content and somewhat well known content, both regular BD and 4K BD rip are widely posted shortly after release.
You do have some truly niche content and non-english content where it’s difficult to find BDRips / BD Remuxes, but you can usually access older DVDRips. If you’re into this kind of content (as I am), you might as well just buy the BD (or stick to the DVDRip which is fine as far as I am concerned).

There is a lot of lore to work with and expand upon.
I really enjoyed Iron Lung, but I always really curious about the broader world (would have preferred an RPG game set in the Iron Lung universe, but an indie movie would work too).
