Help I'm getting vague, hazy memories of Weird Movies

I can't think of their titles and am beginning to question whether or not they ever even existed

One involved a video game where the playable characters were real people

Like players were somehow controlling actual, real, living people

I don't think they knew though?

And like I think one dude who was playing figured it out and so the whole thing was him and the guy he was controlling trying to figure out how to like free everybody or something

I feel like it came out somewhere around the 2000's or 2010's

The other one was about mpreg

Yep

Maybe an 80's or 90's film? Sometime back when they were still recording stuff on actual film I'm pretty sure

Because I'm fairly certain it had that grainy looking quality that you only get with film

There was some sort of experiment and I can't remember if it was the mpreg or a separate thing

Probably the mpreg, I feel like

And the mpreg was done by transferring the fetus from a pregnant woman into a man somehow? I think??

And it was an action film?

I wanna say the main character (who I believe is the one who got mpregged) was being chased down by some spies or whatever who wanted secrets related to the experiment

There was a scene of him giving birth

I remember at the end Main Guy + Main Guy's Ladyfriend + their baby + Main Guy's Dude Friend + Main Dude Friend's Ladyfriend were hanging out having a picnic

And Dude Friend's Ladyfriend mentioned being pregnant

And her + Main Guy + MG's Ladyfriend all turned to Dude Friend and started trying to talk him into getting mpregged

Also I'm like 63% sure Arnold Schwarzenegger was the main character?????

??????????????????????????

I'm losing my mind cuz it sounds fake and ridiculous but I'm pretty sure it exists and if it does I want confirmation but I'm not about to add "Arnold Schwarzenegger Mpreg Movie" to my search history

It's 4 AM, do you know where your car is?

When i readt this prompt the first thing that came to my mind was that scene in the movie "children of the sea" where Umi gets really sick while the three of them are alone on the beach and Ruka has to take care of him and does that same thing, i spent a while looking for a screenshot of the scene but i can't find It anywhere.

I see the caretaker with their warm, damp compress on the whumpee's forehead a lot but rarely one over the eyes. Can confirm it's comforting

enough strong bads... time for strong sads (theres still a strong bad here)

[image description: a page of drawings of a human design of strong sad from homestar runner, where she is depicted as a fat, tan-skinned trans woman with gray and brown hair pulled into a bun and multiple piercings. she is wearing a gray sweatshirt, jeans, and steel-toed combat boots, and next to her is a note stating that she is trans and bisexual and that her pronouns are she/they. next to that is a drawing of her smiling and wearing a sloshy t-shirt, and above that is a comic of strong bad poking her in the stomach and saying "even her gender is my hand-me-downs", to which she stays silently angry at him. end id]

Columbo and the Knight (1984)

put me in the universe where Columbo ran through the 1980s and had a crossover episode with Knight Rider. I think they deserved it, and I am not just saying that because they're my two favorite Old Shows. @telebeast wrote a little fanfic blurb about it and I HAD to visualize it into a comic (which is also the longest comic I have finished thus far at five pages...), so writing credit goes to them.

People who say 2019 cats is a crazy/weird masterpiece have never seen an actually crazy weird movie in their lives I'm so sick of 2019 cats propaganda it's not even entertaining bad it's literally completely devoid of creativity and artistry and I'm SICK of people acting like its anything more than bad acting and bad cgi the visuals aren't even that weird!! Nothing pisses me off more than someone acting like 2019 cats is anything more than a poorly made normie film. It's a "weird" film for disney fans that's it.

Carrie (1976)

[bridoesotherjunk]

so I saw this article today

That says "5 years later, Sony still doesn't understand why it's biggest spider-verse hit worked"

And the article mainly talks about how the Venom films are self contained and don't try to be films in a cinematic universe. They have a clear identity. Yes, there is no Spider-Man in them, and that's okay because they knew what they wanted to do without him when they made the films. They even say at one point "the Venom films are not for everyone, but at least they know what they are"

This is something I personally have talked about many times. And I've seen other Venom fans talk about. And what I'm seeing MCU fans starting to say more and more now. The movies work when they have a clear story and identity and don't feel interchangeable or formulaic.

You could take any Disney plus marvel show or 'phase 4' movie and switch the characters around and the story would probably stay largely the same, or at least feel the same. We all know what I mean right? The characters all make quips like Tony Stark no matter if it is in character or not. They talk and act the same.

But the Venom films? You couldn't take Tom Hardy's Eddie and swap him with the mcu cast. He acts so differently than 90% of them, he wouldn't fit in. He's fucking weird and unhinged and is very much Tom Hardy's brain child.

.

Also the Venom movies worked because queer people liked them. The films were hugely popular with LGBT audiences but you didn't hear that from me 👀👀👀👀
