What's with the bad votes it didn't even come out yet-
Edit: Fair enough.
how could a film that bases an entire storyline around a Ratatouille joke not be absolutely fantastic?
Funniest movie I have seen in years. There is no way Dr Strange In the Multiverse of Madness is going to do multiverse better.
Yeah, there's plot holes. But the movie is so damned funny you just don't care. When they first explained how the multiverse thing worked my reaction was "Really? Is that all?". But it just got better and better and better.
There's periods of the movie you're struggling to breathe you're laughing so hard, and others that are just slow, deep, and sad. It's heartbreaking and hilarious. Slow and a thousand miles per hour. Nothing happening and more happening than you can possibly keep track of at once.
This movie is, without a doubt, brilliant.
I was about to walk away with mixed feelings from Haruhi after the lackluster and most of the times plain boring second season, but in hindsight I'm really, really glad I didn't. This movie is a masterpiece, simply the most moving and powerful piece of media I've ever experienced. No other has brought me to the verge of tears and to heights of awe that many times, even in rewatches. I urge anyone with even a vague interest on this to just go ahead and do it, it's worth every second of its really long runtime.
I swear that Daniels have a direct line to whatever it is that I seek in movies. Long time since I laughed and cried so hard and all together at the movies (probably since swiss army man). Will have to watch more, of course... but WOW.
Saw it at the lone screening that is happening in my city, it was packed but, it's a bit of a bummer that more people won't catch this movie in theaters. Especially on IMAX. No matter...
I feel with this movies like Abbed's dad at the end of Community 1x02. Amazing and I REALLY can't wait to see what they do next!
At worst a blatant self-congratulation without any real substance. A commercial at best.
I saw the 2016 reboot yesterday and decided it was time to return to the original. Many people have slated the new film - it cant' match the original - it can't work with women - blah blah blah - etc. Guess what, the 1984 movie is not perfect. Its very much of its time, the special effects are variable, it isn't as funny as you remember. Return to the film and you might agree - we remember the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man, the demon dogs, the library ghost - all with affection. But it is rose-tinted and not as good as remembered. For its time though, it is a good film, but it does not warrant the classic status that the 2016 Ghostbuster haters are making it out to be. There is room in the world for both movies and for the record... I kinda prefer the new film.
The 70's, 80's and 90's gave us great spoofs and Top Secret is one of those. It's sad that the last good spoofs were probably Scary Movie 1 and 3.
God even after all these years I still love this batshit crazy show. Great animation, awesome fights, well fitted plugsuits, nice fan service, Shinji being a little bitch in the beginning, this movie has it it all. I really enjoyed how they wrapped up the whole story, didn’t think they could pull it off.
Don’t read the comments or reviews, just fuckin watch it. Not for the Evas, not for the fights or the quality of the animation, watch it for the best delirious poem around, This is not anime or entertainment whatsoever, this is pure art.
To watch after the season 1. Worth watching, roller coaster should be an anime category, this would be on the top 3 for sure. Man i need some time to recover now.
I'd always wondered what I didn't like about manga gaming films, and now I know: too much dialogue and repetitive, unoriginal fight scenes.
Well made with performances so strong that I don't want to spend time with any of the characters portrayed. So effective, in fact, that I didn't want to spend any more time in the theater than was necessary.
The rating should at least be in the 90s for sure! Very inspiring movie for me personally. If you have an idea you are trying to get off the ground, watch this movie, then you will start working on it immediately after. Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross do an amazing job with the soundtrack. Interesting note that approximately 83% of trakt has been coded while listening to this soundtrack :)
Yikes.
If I must be honest, I only checked this one out because of the heated controversy surrounding it. I knew we were in for a dumpster fire when the first trailer dropped and Sia's unprofessional response to the controversy on her Twitter amount.
But man, watching the whole movie was so difficult that I can't fully describe it in words. Incredibly embarrassing to watch and doesn't do its subject matter justice. There are some good songs, but it's so chopped together in these music numbers that it felt so disjointed as a whole.
This should have never been made.
In 2015, Hideaki Anno said anime as an industry is dying and only has about 5 years left, then it might go through a resurgence.
jump ahead 3 years
Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 is finally announced for release in 2020. OH FUCK. Anno is going to kill the entire industry by releasing the final Evangelion movie. The madman will do the deed himself. Just more of what you'd expect from the master.
Watched this one on the big screen with a Rocky Horror-esque talkback thing going on. It was a lot of fun! My favorite bits from the crowd were people greeting every establishing shot by saying "Meanwhile, in San Francisco" in unison, throwing spoons everytime the framed picture of a spoon is shown, and making "nom" noises every time people kissed. It was very ridiculous, but a fun atmosphere and enjoyable way to breathe some new life into this evergreen film.
God Don Hertzfeldt is awesome. It's hard to give this a proper review, since there's so much to unpack, but it fits the ideas and theme Hertzfeldt has been working out in his work for some time now. It has concepts of identity, about what a human being is apart from their flesh and blood, about a sense of being unstuck in time and events feeling random, about what gives us comfort and what we try to hold onto in the unavoidable transience of our lives here. And of course, it's full of things like the letter from Emily's grandfather that are simultaneously hilarious and sad. How Hertzfeldt is able to make these crude-yet-complex drawings into something that feels so profound and so touching is still such a mystery, but I bow down to the alchemy he uses to make a story about time travel and transferred consciousness feel like the most earnest, human thing in the world.
This is an 8~9 movie, but rating 10 as to offset all the delusional veteran fans.
It's OK. I didn't need my heart anyway.
