The Matrix: Resurrections (2021)

[Kradan]

I guess, I somehow missed it

[SiL]

Possibly also people kind of stopped caring about Giger 20 years ago.

[Kradan]

As long as there are Alien fans there will be people who give a shit about Giger

[BlueMarsalis79]

Why does nobody talks about that "real world" is literally a Gigerland ?

I talk about it constantly with Necro.

People never stopped caring evidently then.

[SiL]

Y'all need to familiarise yourselves with the concepts of generalisation and hyperbole.

Giger inspired, Giger ish, etc were a lot more common terms to describe the aesthetic in the past. Today the aesthetic is diluted and generic and there's a lot less specific reference to him.

I'm not saying literally everyone stopped caring, he just sort of slipped out of the zeitgeist.

[BlueMarsalis79]

Hyperbole for me not for thee. 

And I massively disagree, consider how often he's brought up, even in contexts like Scorn when it's more Zdzislaw Beksinski than H.R Giger overall, I think the idea that he slipped out of the zeitgeist's absolute nonsense frankly not to the general public as the Alien guy or most certainly not in the art world.

great movie people just don't get language

study language people start seeing films and franchises as exercises of style - you can already do that if you like alien and predator

study language people

I've never studied anything in my life and I don't intend to start now.

Especially since this part's true and I grew up with them.

[SiL]

Was that not word salad? I can't make sense of it.

[[cancerblack]]

Was that not word salad? I can't make sense of it.

Study language, people! Start seeing films and franchises as exercises of style.

Added punctuation for you.

[SiL]

Much appreciated.

[OmegaZilla]

Was that not word salad? I can't make sense of it.

yes by intent

[SiL]

But why?

[OmegaZilla]

But why?

such are the questions wandering in a mind trying to dissect mine

Spoiler

I often write in jet mode so there is no punctuation even though I know where it should be

[close]

[SiL]

Ah, I ain't got time for that.
