  1. Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, or advocating violence will be removed.

  2. Be civil: disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally insult others.

  3. Spam, self promotion, trolling, and bots are not allowed

  4. Shitposts and memes are allowed until they prove to be a problem.

    Regarding spoilers; Please put "(Spoilers)" in the title of your post if you anticipate spoilers, as we do not currently have a spoiler tag available. If your post contains an image that could be considered a spoiler, please mark the thread as NSFW so the image gets blurred. As far as how long to wait until the post is no longer a spoiler, please just use your best judgement. Everyone has a different idea on this, so we don't want to make any hard limits.

    Please use spoiler tags whenever commenting a spoiler in a non-spoiler thread. Most of the Lemmy clients don't support this but we want to get into the habit as clients will be supporting in the future.

Failure to follow these guidelines will result in your post/comment being removed and/or more severe actions. All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

Event Horizon. TMNT (The OG live action) Any documentary

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Event Horizon was vastly underrated. Also, I learned the other day there was a scene that was removed due to being so disturbing but the footage was stored poorly and became so degraded we will never get to see it. Which only makes my imagination run wild.

I am not familiar with getting stoned but I bet It's Such a Beautiful Day would give any non-sober (and sober) person an existential crisis, if that's something you're looking for.

I've been meaning to rewatch it so maybe I get some of it the second time around...
