Fair question as there are a few. I would say the tank type one from the Christian Bale batman's as it also comes with the bike

Yeah, it's actually really great, rides up the walls, flips around, can beat any apocalyptic traffic or road blocks in it, be it cops, cannibal gangs, or zombies.

Where's my Time Machine, and quarters, I need to get to a payphone between December 1990 and January 1991, after listening to a Special Audio Cassette on my Sony Walkman.

Yes, I'm one of those people hating, animal loving 'freaks'. I'd rather a dozen people die, than one horse, for example.

Agreed. Sadly, my pet baby Zebra was killed by my neighbor just 1 month ago so I totally know how you feel on this subject.

@JinxyKatte I'd say either the: Tumbler from Batman Begins cause that is one hellva cool tank or the Machine Gun Joe's 04' Dodge Ram he drives in Death Race with the big ass snow plow with spikes on the front. I hit a deer recently where I live out in the rural so it would ensure that my car doesn't get defeated so easily next round!!

It's gotta be the Tumbler from Batman Begins. That thing is schweeeeeeeet.

I think the death race mustang is nicer but all are cool yah.

I have just invented a new blu ray player. I call it, the multiverse player.

So how it works, you put in any movie, and you then can customise it. For our first time using it we have settled on 1 minor change early in the movie. What would you wanna watch first. And what changed. How would this effect the movie?

My Alter Ego Daily corporation launched a competing player, that doesn't change anything in movies, but recreates them in virtual reality around the viewer, so he can experience them first hand.

AED Simulcast VR - which titles would you like to see first?

No, that was a game, with some environments recreated within.
I'm 'ripping off' Strange Days, obviously, that came 16 years before.

I think it would be cool to see the events of any movie from within, as if you're there, one of the characters, and if you add the ability to feel things, that's a whole another level.
Like in Strange Days, some could rob a store, others would **** and kill, third could just take a shower as a naked girl, and touch yourself.

I freakin' love that movie! I know it has its detractors, but I just can't help myself.

So we're talking 'one minor change early in the movie". Hmmmmmmmm.

Okay....I think I've got it.

In the movie Dark Shadows (the Tim Burton version), we start out in like the 1700's, and when Barnabus is cursed and buried he awakes in present day America. My change would be to entirely scrap awaking in the present day, and having the battle between Barnabus and Angelica occur in the 1700's.

I just love the old Dark Shadows TV show, and when I learned it was going to be a movie I was super excited. The beginning of Burton's film was appeasing my desires, but the turn to present day, and making it a comedy, destroyed it. Is that to say I didn't enjoy it? First watch...no. I was bitterly disappointed. But once I came to the understanding this was Tim Burton, and much like everything else he does you cannot trust it to be sacred to the original and it will have little to do with the 'true allure' of Dark Shadows....Yeah. It was okay. Just not Dark Shadows.

I long for this to be done correctly. How awesome if Tarantino got ahold of this.

Honestly it is something I have thought about a bunch. Like maybe you could customise what you wanna change. Like what character makes a decision. Maybe you could just flat out let everyone in the movie have free will and let it play out. Or just the main characters. Imagine watching how John wick might play out differently.

They only used to have that I Want to Buy button on preorders, or sold out items, as a way to get on a waiting or reserve list, and promptly sent out links to pay for items once allotted 3 days for 'fancy pants' elites with penthouse numbers ran out.
What's going on now, why it's activated at tye same time, I don't know, but if you can buy it now, and pay now, I'd do that. Plus you can add something else to cart, to share that shipping charge between items, while I Want To orders were always just for that one item separately.
My friend orders 3-4 of the same FAC, like The Thing last time, in one order, one cart. Two by the numbers owned, and two extra, just because he asked and they're available, so no problem with that.
They'll be happy if you buy 10.

This is good, especially when you live few streets from their warehouse like me!
I used this method now for JL and Basterds. Once i ordered those i also got second email (followng day) as infomation that those orders are secured.

Like in John Wick, what if he had gotten beaten up, and his car stolen, but they left his dog alone? Would that not possibly be enough to make his murderous rampage, just a violent rampage? Maybe just a need to exact some, shall we say, equalization by beating the crap out of the punk in question.

Or if he hadn't responded at the gas station. Or if his wife hadn't died. Hell what if he just didn't retire.

Or like you could have really weird ones. Captain Marvel doesn't rescue Tony in end game and they die and the movie just ends after his recording lol.

Seeing as you brought up End Game, and I've been pondering this anyway.....(SPOILER ALERT: SPOILER ALERT: SPOILER ALERT: SPOILER ALERT: SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!SPOILER ALERT: SPOILER ALERT...........

As we all are aware, Thanos snapped half of life out of existence in Infinity War. In End Game, when they find Thanos, Thor exercises his right to vengeance and ends Thanos. But.....half of all life is still missing.

When our heroes went back in time to undo Thanos plan, they unfortunately encountered Thanos of the past, who was in the process of searching for the Infinity Stones. This is how Gamora showed up to fight in the final battle; being from that same timeline as the 'new' Thanos.

Okay...so the battle rages on and Thanos is defeated and Iron Man saves the day by wiping him out of existence, but paying the ultimate price and succombing to the impact of the snap.

So our heroes saved the save the day, and all creation, from Thanos.

But..........

They also saved that new alternate Universe the pain and suffering of ever knowing about losing your loved ones to Thanos, because THAT Thanos was taken out by our Iron Man. He's no longer there to wreak havoc and work toward his plan. So the Avengers, in that time line, never have to go thru the peril that OUR Avengers did. Indeed, Tony Stark and Pepper are still happily married with a beautiful daughter. Nothing that has played out since that time would occur in that world. Including Captain America finally making it back to Peg, because he never would have had to return the infinity stones because they never would have needed to gather them.

Just like the movie Sliding Doors, where either Gwyneth Paltrow's character Helen Quilley either does or doesn't catch a train and how it plays out... understood.

Ok, what about Run Lola Run. Lola can make all the decisions in the last story and we can skip the first two tries to save that boyfriend

I saw Run Lola Run back in 2007 with The Bays doing a live mixed soundtrack, more here and it was awesome

Back to Sliding Doors, being the UK after all, it would be a day of train strikes IMO, so yes the story ends with her death - runtime 48 minutes.

Been doing daily themes on my Instagram and today is Comic Books. Thought I'd share.

Interesting. I thought that Alita: Battle Angel was based on an anime not a comic book. I never read either of the comics for- Jonah Hex or The Losers but both of those films are guilty pleasures for me. Wish they would partner with HBO Max to do the R/ TV-MA rated Jonah Hex for television so we could get a more authentic film. Since the script Taylor & Neveldine had originally written was bonkers cray with horses firing weapons, and Jonah Hex eating dogs.

It was a Manga wasn't it? I'm pretty sure. Either way it's an awesome steelbook lol.
