In Cloud Atlas he played the female, middle-aged, sadistic matron of a care home that imprisons it’s residents. Honestly, ¹⁰/₁₀ movie just for that.
He also played a Cajun devil in the post apocalypse
And a prototype version of Agent Smith in the 1960s.
Presenting the Desert Eagle as a practical sidearm is deep fantasy.
Isn’t there a non .50cal version
Yes…and it’s not much better…357 still kicks like a bitch.
Source, I have said .357 DE and it collects dust and only comes out when someone wants to fire it. It’s boring and a complete waste of money as a firearm, but it’s a collection piece.
Right but if you’re a superhuman sentinel program that only exists as subsentient code in a simulated reality, and you need to shoot through four inch concrete walls, well… Then you’ll be glad to have one.
Exactly. Think of it like a video game, where the .50 DE is a practical weapon. Remember: we only see the gun in the matrix and not in the real world. 😌
Am I in a program?
Agents can punch through a brick wall.
What then is him in Priscilla or Cloud Atlas?
a goddess
“The Dressmaker” Hugo approves.
Hell yeah
And “family film” is when he looks like this
Me on Monday VS me on Saturday
WHOA your hair grows really fast
In both cases he looks like a disappointed dad. “Why aren’t you more like your brother?”… “When I was your age”… “Stop playing with your friend Morphius”… “Don’t you dare put on that ring!”, yatta yatta yatta.
Dad, it’s all a simulation!
What is it when Hugo Weaving looks like Guy Fawkes?
It’s the 5th of November.
What is it when he looks like a tall blonde woman with a sparkly dress, a massive flowery wig,and a strong jawline?
Majestic.
Science fiction is a subset of fantasy. Fantasy is any work in which the setting is deliberately made different from the real world. Science fiction is when those differences are due to the presence of advanced science and/or technology.
No, Sci-Fi and Fantasy are two distinct subsets of Speculative Fiction. Another would be Supernatural Horror.
Counterpoint: Science fiction is fiction which shows a world different from our own, but different due to changes in culture or technology that plausibly could take place within our own universe, whereas the differences in fantasy are ones that are fundamentally incompatible with the known physical laws of our own universe.
Edit: How sharp of a division one wants to make out of that “plausibly could” clause is the dividing line between hard and soft scifi.
This is a great definition. There’s a lot of “sci Fi” that is much more firmly in the realm of fantasy (I say this as someone who kinda likes Dr Who). Being in space is not enough IMO to be called sci Fi.
We need space elves with space magic like albator
What about sci-fi that’s literally only different from the real world because of fictional technology? That makes up a bulk of the kind of sci-fi I am into. Cyberpunk and the like.
Star Trek technically takes place in the actual universe. Is it fantasy because it’s almost never on Earth?
The genre is usually divided into “soft” and “hard” fantasy.
Cyberpunk is generally considered hard fantasy, as is stuff like The Expanse or Interstellar.
Star Wars is unabashedly soft SciFi, it’s a straight Fantasy story in space.
Star Trek is a half-breed - it pays some lip service to scientific “plausibility”, but much of it stretches that envelope beyond the breaking point. Scientific accuracy was never the point of the series to begin with.
