Not a sequel, not a reboot, but a wonderful tribute to the franchise that we all fell in love with so many years ago.
I see you shiver with antici......................pation
this movie made me a lesbian
To the 1.3k people from the future who have already watched this episode before release: How was it? :eyes:
COURTESY REMINDER: PLEASE don't spoil the last four words for anyone, no matter if they are amazing or eh. Some people have waited almost ten years for this, so make the spoiler tag your friend on here and in real life.
It is full of outstanding performances by its losers and legitimate scream-out-loud scares. An instant modern horror classic.
so fucking creepy. i love how it ultimately was a story about the victims and the survivor. there was no part that looked into the grabber’s pov or reasoning, it was all the kids. the other victims were used in a truly heart wrenching way to show finn’s motive and strength and intelligence. also no part of it tried to justify the dad. it was clear he loved his kids, but even his apology at the end fell short to the connection between the siblings.
I think it's really easy to miss the point of this "horror" film. Keep an open mind to the end and look for the clues.
For me, the Babadook was a manifestation of the mother's grief. The ending feels really awkward unless you think about how people deal with grief. You don't "defeat" it but you manage it. And at any moment it might consume you all over again. The boy isn't allowed to feed it at the end because like grief it can't be completed processed as a child.
It has been 4 seasons and I still have no idea what the f*** this show is about.
I loved the novel this film is based on - possibly my favourite of all King's works - and this closing chapter does his story justice. It's not perfect - it does tend to go from one setpiece to the next at too rapid a level - though as some of these setpieces come close to brilliance, this doesn't detract too much from the film. A genuine horror blockbuster with horror, comedy, and heart, this film will make you jump one second, laugh the next, and perhaps even shed a tear a moment later. An accomplished film, and it's just a pity that there is no Part 3 to look forward to. Will miss you losers!
This is fucked up and I kinda loved it. It is surprisingly funny in a I'm a terrible human being way. Matt Dillon is great.
This one was the best season I must say... Intense, thrilling and suspenseful, and this final episode was excellent, great in every way since the beginning to the end, and Tom Hardy really stole the show in this one and the previous in his scenes.
The book didn't have this level of detail for their relationship, I am so glad we are getting a continuation on the source material. The growth of these characters is great, everyone loves a gay dad progression - here's to the shared car.
Very similar to It Follows and The Ring. It builds tension quite well and gives you a well crafted jump scare once in a while. I found some parts pretty scary. The camera work in here is top notch and so is the transition between scenes. The psychological horror elements weren't anything new or impressive but still pretty enjoyable. The story got very predictable but I loved the third act it was a blast and some nice CGI/practical effects? I wanted more smiles in the movie it feels like there weren't that many but then again too much would ruin it too. One things for sure I was smiling whenever it happened on screen! Would of liked more explanation as to what the hell kind of entity that was and why it likes to smile so much... I'm willing to bet this is getting a sequel.
ineffable husbands to ineffable dads. we love the growth
I don't recommend eating while watching this ep :)))
This is not as bad as some of the comments here. I don't know what people are expecting to get from a show like this. Meaning of life? That's 42 btw.
If you like "The IT Crowd" or even "The Orville" you will enjoy this show.
I have no idea what I watched, But loved the every minute of it
I don't know why this movie is getting low reviews. The visuals are stunning. I love how "futuristic" it looked. Both visually and the technology used within. Some stuff i could see being possible in real life. that virtual market was an amazing concept.
Additionally, i thought the story kept a good steady pace with very few boring parts. Overall I'm pleased, will watch again.
Great episode! Best part? Itadori watching Lord of the Rings!!!!
10/10 just because they killed that disgusting copper and for Thomas surviving
The one thing that is creepy to me is that, you can see "it" coming from afar so slowly but surely and knowing that no matter where u go "it" will find you. As the saying goes, "you can run but you can't hide".
People need to stop being so obnoxiously negative. This show is extremely entertaining. Maybe not always funny, in a sense, but certainly always entertaining. Entertaining isn't as subjective as funny. And if you don't find it to be entertaining, at the very least, you're doing something wrong. Lower your negativity, lingering expectations, and I bet you'll begin to find it entertaining, a little bit, at first.
Anyway, all that aside, I enjoyed watching this show very, very much. The fictional history of the in-show world and the subtle references to little bits and pieces of it came out of nowhere and was probably one of the most shocking aspects of it if not the most. But it was super interesting from the start, and then began to be entertaining and a very wonderful running gag, so to speak. The gradual descent into anguish and madness made for a compelling theme and didn't disappoint.
The VFX (or CGI?) of outer space, and maybe the space ship itself as well, something that I think I've seen a person or two complain about and call bad, or at least comparing it to a much older show that had "bad" VFX/CGI that also didn't age very well, didn't look remotely bad to me. In actuality, it looked quite good and...crisp or whatever, I don't know. Each significant character was entertaining. Yes, even Karen. Sure, if you're more passionate and generally immersive in what you watch than I am, you probably hate her and don't particularly like any of the other characters. That's fine.
Moving on, the main issue which a lot of people have with the show that I've seen is that it isn't funny, and I think that's a load of bollocks. While the show is advertised as a comedy or considered to be a comedy, first and foremost, you're supposed to be entertained. Not to mention, this is, without a doubt, and very obviously, a much different version of the comedy genre than usual. That alone should've been obvious before going off and complaining about how much the show sucks, and how remarkably unfunny it is. That being said, feel free to freely act negatively towards the show, most of you probably already have. I liked it and I'm looking forward to the second season, and it's a good thing for the show that those of you who I've mentioned, you know who you are, have been weeded out and won't be returning. Goodbye.
If you liked what you seen in the trailer then you will probably love the movie. If you didn't why the hell are you watching it anyway? It's a movie about Nicolas Cage beating up Satanic possessed Chucky cheese robots, what did you expect? I thought it was great!
I always love seeing Australian cinema out there. And movies about demons...spirits etc. They're something I'm especially keen on.
Talk to Me is about Mia, a girl grieving her mother's sudden death two years prior. She is introduced to this unbelievable game that her classmates play where they set a ceramic hand on the table, grasp it and say "talk to me", leading something out there to come to the other side.
This movie doesn't shy away from gore, and it's especially impactful as the characters are teenagers. The tension builds in each scene, almost explosively delivered in horrifying outcomes (especially given the sound mixing and how freaking loud it is). There's not really noticeable music in this film, just the regular bush doof pumping beats but nothing I really enjoyed and it still keeps its jump scares kind of obvious with the sound cues.
The story unravels with really great pacing but I found Mia's character development to be a little weak. I can justify it by seeing her as just a teenager out there, lost and alone. She's an outcast because her family changed, no one can relate to her and she's sad and a downer. She's still grieving her mother and the movie's core concept puts her back at the start of her grief journey. She's drawn in by having a connection to someone, by feeling like she's part of a group...which leads her to make poor choices. I did feel like we needed more growth to come through - she has a found family who love her and care for her but she still almost falls to the words of her spirit mum, she's not able to see what's really surrounding her...and that didn't make that much sense to me. It's obvious she cherishes Riley and Jade, and feels loved by them. so I needed more convincing to believe that the script choices were ones she would make.
I did wonder if her wearing yellow in every scene was just style choices or a symbol of her place in her grief journey and joy...but I'm not sure.
I did really enjoy the ending sequences of the film and how it tied back to its lore. It's a solid film and worth the watch.
According to manga readers, this is where the real story starts.
The last 30 minutes absolutely ruined the movie, turning the victimized sister into a superhuman boogieman. WTF were they thinking?!?
That's not empowerment. That's vilifying victims of abuse, and perpetuating the stigma of "broken" people.
