The movie is way too unrealistic. No one plugs in a USB cable on the first try.
why does this show like to hurt me emotionally
I get that's it's a fantasy about Hollywood, but for me it's immersion breaking given the time-period.
And what does it say about people who had to actually live those lives? all they had to do is be brave and all will be good & well? I'm sorry but it just feels disrespectful to their actual struggles & hardships. Strikes a nerve really.
Having said that, it's well acted at least. Just think it fails at delivering the message it set out to deliver.
They Dared, Jesus as a mexican inmigrant. Only a show like this could. Why not?
Sad to see him fall for professional victims like Anita Sarkeesian and Brianna Wu and make fun of some rational statements(telling somebody that taking nude pics is a bad idea is NOT the same as claiming the victims are at fault, it's sensible advice in the same way that "lock your door when you go out" is a good idea and isn't the same as claiming that somebody with an open door is at fault for being robbed) in this episode. First time he disappointed me.
I'm definitely not a fan of slasher movies, but John Carpenter's Halloween is just incredible in my eyes. It's one of those movies I can rewatch constantly and never get bored. I feel that much of it has to do with how fantastic the direction is. Carpenter uses plenty of long shots and slow transitions, and there's almost always some chilling detail daring the viewer to find it. The villain feels especially scary because of how quiet and foreboding he is. The iconic music and sound effects just seal the deal. Despite how many times I've seen this, it always surprises me with how effectively it can build tension and how firmly it can grab my attention, despite my adversion for the genre. It doesn't do that by being original (I mean, it is one of the most quintessential examples of the genre) but by just being a damn good movie.
