Movie - Riverworld (2010)
TIME is a river !
@@Unknown15916 That might be the name of the books. Riverworld is the name of the MOVIE.
@@homesteadgamer1257The book is "Riverworld" by Philip Jose Farmer. It's a sci-fi classic.
@@taknothing4896well this film is low budget sci-fi channel mediocrity. Probably trying to cash in on the Lost buzz that occurred at that time in history
Im pretty sure this wasn't a movie and the pilot to a SyFy Channel miniseries, that was cancelled after the pilot
@@cfltheman But the movie was the 2003 release and the 2009 (this one) and the 2010 reboot, were both miniseries were they not? I seem to remember, when this aired originally, there was supposed to be more, but it was cancelled after the miniseries pilot because it was trashed by critics, viewers and had VERY watchers.
I concur there are a lot of SyFy actors here
Technically, it's both. This was the second attempt to start a River World tv series.
@@MrAntoineoliver Honestly the only reason I gave it a chance, was because of Tahmoh Penikett. I liked his performance in dollhouse.
@@ColinStevensyou would like him in bsg
The novels are great - read them instead. Remember books? I know they are pre-Internet but you should check them out.
The novels were amazing, apart from Farmer's constant self insert (Paul Janus Finnegan in The world of Tiers and Peter Jarius Frigate in Riverworld) and his weak endings. But still very *_very_* enjoyable. Farmer clearly did a lot of research when writing his books.
All very fair points and you are right. Peace to your brother. @@thefurrybastard1964
books what are those ?
Do the books offer closure?
@@CalBruin Yes and no. Farmer is well known for having trouble finishing a story. The story arcs and threads are cleared up, but he leaves it open to revisit.
Watching movies to give us the cliff notes on an otherwise (I’m assuming) a horrible flick and make it sound interesting shows your talent and sacrifice. Love your content, keep up the great work.
It's not that bad, it's a sci-fi channel movie. it's based on a book series, that I haven't read. They did two movies, I like the first one more than the second but they're both good if you watch them for what they are which is a low-budget movie so don't expect Hollywood quality.
The writing on the air ship in German says "Herumfurzen" - "farting around" - I guess it was not in the Philip José Farmer books, maybe some kind of joke by the film crew?
What is it in Dutch?
I came for exact that detail at 11:49 😂😂
kr from Germany 🦅🇩🇪
They couldn't even find a Japanese actress to play Tomo. At least her name wasn't Kieko .
Are there any good Japanese American actress?
Surely you're not serious.@@Dave_of_Mordor
@@subliteral yeah...that's why i asked
@@Dave_of_Mordorhard to have well known Japanese American actresses when the only roles they can get revolve around being an assassin, a ninja, a ninja assassin, a concubine or some variation of an exotic Asian temptress/victim. Samurai swords are optional but encouraged. They couldn’t even give that the role of Major (in Ghost in the Shell) to a Japanese American actress. I’m not saying a white women or a black women can’t play the role but considering very few roles Japanese Americans get, it would have been nice to see someone of that ethics background have a chance. If you have seen the movie, you might agree having a Japanese American as Major couldn’t have made that movie any less faithful to the anime/manga.
2:48 "Punching Matt in the face..." yes because Richard's head is composed entirely of fists.
Head Butt actually, probably AI didn't want to use the word butt so yeah...
in the original version of this that I remember, the blue dude was actually an alien from
another planet, and one of the plots of the show/mini series or whatever was trying to find out
why he was resurrected there with the humans and why he was the only alien.
that whole story was LEFT HANGING just like this one, as far as to WHAT THE HELL ANY OF
THE EVENTS HAPPENING IN THE STORY EVEN MEANT.
IKR the story was all over the place probably they thought of making a series and then make up something something as they went along, but series didn't take-off so they cut corners to make up an "ending" happens all the time kind of like "Lost"..
The books were a lot of fun. People from all times through history. Riverboat helmed by Mark Twain...!
So that's what happened in Galactica after they reached earth...
Yeah! :)
Lmao
Has two characters from the books, the riverboat and the river. Other than that, there is nothing of the books in this movie. Read the books, they are much better than either of the movies.
They couldn't cast a real Japanese girl?
Must have been made by Disney
@@malahammer Ohhhhh, that's cold and funny at the same time but it's also the truth
It’s called ACTING!!!!!!!!
She's Chinese--American with citizenship in Canada and Japan, and her father while American is by profession a Japanese translator and professor,. Genetic heritage aside, as a Japanese citizen, she IS Japanese. Because Japan, after all, is a COUNTRY and NOT a race.
That said, if one is a good enough actor, with the right make up, you will never know their origins. Just like YOU assumes she had nothing to do with Japan because she doesn't look the traditional and stereotypical part of a Japan resident. How very racist of you to assume she can't be a resident of some country because she doesn't look like the stereotypical resident.
@@malahammermmm
Is this another Mystery Recapped channel? Or someone making money off MR and Adam's hard work? Adam's voice isn't exactly easy to mistake.
You can tell this was made in Canada because everyone seems to be very nice. Almost too nice.
No it wasn't made in Canada if it was Justin Trudeau would have made a cameo in Black Face
And of course, because the woman is 'Japanese', she is an expert with Katanas.
it's genetic !
Aren't they born with this knowledge?
Warrior Nuns, dude
Also, a biracial Japanese Buddhist nun from back then? Might as well made her a cyborg.
That was an interesting looking "Japanese" woman.
I remember a pilot movie called Riverworld. Glad to see a reboot...
I had to order this movie on a CD!!!
Poor Felix, always drawing the short straw ...
2:04 A woman who's meant to have been from Japan 800 years ago? They could have at least gotten a japanese woman to play the part...
I loved reading this book many years ago.
This movie was a complete bastardization of the original novels.
9:23….that was a holy moly scene right there
So many of the cast of Battlestar Galactica!
The book is so much better than this. "To your scattered bodies go" by Philip José Farmer is one of the most original sci-fi stories written. And one of my favourites. The other 2 novels are not so good. I think they are making another movie about it but again have butchered the story and characters. It's a bit like Dune where they made some not so good version before they finally made a proper version. We are still waiting on someone to come a make a decent movie for this novel.
It could be such a brilliant film too.
Yeah, they really did a bad hatchet job of Farmer's book.
i have seen a river world before, did they remake it?
I also once thought about same thing
This actually looks worse than the 2003 adaption of Farmer's Riverworld Novel series.
I had an aneurysm trying to read the title properly
Can a plot get any more ridiculous? It's like the writers were throwing darts on a sticker board full of bizarre plot ideas.
The book was much better. It was a collection of short stories. Weird ASF.
The film bears a distant, very vague resemblance to Philip Jose Farmer's river world novels.
Interesting
14:15 Ronin????
Omg and Gaeta!
What!??! 🤔
This would of been a decent ARPG!😊
Would have? There was a 1998 game of that name.
Great Isekai!
@7:26 the girl he had killed in a previous traffic accident? Dude, that's the same girl that killed everyone with the bomb at the bar.... what am I missing?
River World just didn't make enough sense to catch on. As an aside, Richard might have been a dick, but he wasn't the villain. He was trying to stop the torturous cycle of reincarnating and was probably pushed into doing whatever he had to do to achieve that noble goal.
Looks like a rich mans daughter school project and she got an A
I remember watching this on Scifi channel back in the day. I remember having a hard time following it and finding it interesting beyond the premise.
I always wondered if I just gave up on it and wrote it off too quickly.
NOPE! Even a recap cant make this live up to the potential of the concept or make it easy to follow/care about.
As I recall, its based of a mildly popular book or movie before it. But where I think it failed is... it feels like its trying too hard to be unique. It throws the concept at you, but does not explore it in any interesting way or provide answers. Thats fine to a limited extent with a mystery, but this was not. It's a drama. It's treated more as "Lets have a bunch of random people spawn in a new world, and make the story about some cliche drama no one cares about, that is barely if at all science fiction". I bet Scifi was hoping this to be their own Lost. But COMPLETELY failed at it. If it continued as a series, maybe it would be interesting as to why the aliens brought them there, why out of all people them, and randomly some people they know, etc. But it failed to be remotely interesting before that in order for viewers to get to that point.
This was just before the SciFi channel became SyFy. When it was starting to go down hill, thanks to producing BS that just did not feel like Science Fiction. The fact that the Scifi in this takes such a backseat... makes this a prime example of why the channel went to sh!t.
The Book series is right there with Dune & MORE CLOSELY RESEMBLED
"Requim~Chevalier Vampire" coimic/story from Heavy Metal Magazine.
There everyone respawns in Hell ruled by Dracula & all famous villains
and famous Nazi are there..Similar to the way they show up in Riverworld.
~1~ the good guys alien faction reincarnate Humanities greatest
~while the villain faction reincarnate Nero,Goering etc.
i suggest watching the SciFy mini series over this movie version...
Mystery recap guy moonlighting 🤣
He's getting that bag 😂
@@jupiterapollo4985 what if the AI just copied his voice and he's unemployed now
@@kristingallo2158 lol
The first STRAND type movie
The “air floating plane-like vehicle” is called a zeppelin.
What are they teaching in schools now?
Not history obviously.
“Air floating plane like vehicle” 🤦
Is this real? At 11:49 they called their airship "Herumfurzen" (German for "farting around")?
Wait......is this Battlestar Galactica?
Yeah! :)
If anyone doesn't understand they are dead in the spirit world this is their afterlife. It's kind of like the matrix the two blue beings. Are really working together just like the Oracle and the engineer. And yes in The matrix they are in the spirit world too.
in the matrix they are literally in a computer system bro not the spirit realm.
@@rtruth7002 in the animatrix the second Renaissance the robot war when that robot blew up the Earth that killed everyone which means we went to the spirit world but we went to their universe that they created and now we're inside their reality manifested from the spirit world back into their physical world. Their world made for us. We are no longer in the regular world where the Creator created. So now we're in their physical world but it all comes from the spirit world. This is real stuff and if you can't see that we are about to be sleeping with robots. And all the stuff in the movies is actually manifesting right in our face. I've been going to the spirit world since I was a kid I've been studying this stuff way before this movie was even thought of. In The matrix there in the spirit world that's why they can jack in and out. Through the different realms.. they are not in the physical world like we are in now. That's why they keep reliving it over like the new movie they actually tricked them to reset the matrix. They tricked them into believing in the one and he blindly resets the whole game so they can keep playing.The architect and the Oracle are on teams. You have human eyes. You got to look with your spirit eyes.
I wonder how much this movie lost financialy
Zero stakes as anyone who dies is instantly resurrected. Way to build tension there. Stupid af
really dislike the word "decimate" because it's always used wrong, it means to reduce by 1/10th
This was a horrible mess. There's 10 minutes I'll never get back.
Helo!!!!
This story makes zero sense.
"Read the books read the books"
If only you would say the title of the books...
Yeah thanks :)
It says the title of it in the pinned post.
@@homesteadgamer1257 afaik it is the name of the movie that is pinned
@@DoNotPushHere Well, most movies made based on books have the same or very similar names. If you looked up the movie name, you'd find the book name
@@homesteadgamer1257 true, we nowadays can google up almost everything. I recognize it was simpler for me to ask here, plus the human contact can provide extra information, like related books or authors, not simply a bot answer.
Anyway thanks man
Adam
River world older science fiction.
The Illuminati has their own trademark lunch boxes now WTF 🤣🤣😂
Riverworld...the idea was brilliant, however the original pilot was canceled, the series was then rebooted, but then canceled again ..... I have to say tho, the originL pilot was way better ..
Nothing about this makes sense.
Cant be cancelled l have it
the word on the 'plane like vehicle' in old letters "herumfurzen" is german for "farting around" - wtf?! why? how? wtf?!
The book was so much better.
Wow, can I have my 15 minutes back?
air floating plane like vehicle.. is this ai or blind narration
it take a special kind of something to screw up one of sci-fi's greatest series of books. every attempt has failed. all they had to do was stick to the books.
I died shortly it was Nice and i was here i did not go anywhere ok. No Hollywood storkes. Ok. We are here ok
this was the remake mini series from 2010, the movie is from 2003, the movie was better
Didn’t know you can die after you die 🤡🤡🤡🤡
Ever seen Bleach 😂
Sad to see the brilliance of the original story contorted in a such a schlocky and crappy movie.
gave up at the 5min mark.... completely nonsensical
guy simped for jess
My rating for this movie is negetive 100....
Even Adam’s voice is not enough to save the plot of this show. It was confusing, poorly written, sub par acting and an even more ridiculous plot that just didn’t make sense. Yeah… I had forgotten about this movie … and will probably forget it again because it was that un-memorable. Lol
Sounds like this movie tried to be profound (like Matrix) but ended up stupid.
This movie sounds awful, good video though
This movie looks like a hard pass.
What? Stolen from lost, stolen from xmen ( with no effort to even make the mouth not two tone) and profoundly dumb😂
From x men? How? 🤨
@@kingdon7795there was a blue woman.....😂
Tbh, looks rubbish..
seen this before, its called the matrix. They are on the tables the entire time.
