Alex' coming out was so pure/real and important fml. Yes straight ppl this is how you develop a gay character. That storyline is real as fuck IT HAPPENS IN THE FUCKING REAL LIFE so get over the "the writers just want to please the gays or can the writers stop writing stories that have nothing to do with their sexual preference?". We need/deserve this rep. And finally, i'm so glad the writers pulled this off i'm really looking forward to see maggie falling for alex ahhhhh fuck
This is not a movie about dragons and the world of Kumandra. This is about Earth, this is the real world. We are divided, groups of people completely hating each other inside the same nation.
Unfortunately we are facing our own Druun, our plague. But as in the movie, this isn't our biggest problem. The real enemy is our inability to work together as a community, to put aside political views and really trust each other, working together for the best of everybody.
Beyond the important and necessary message, the movie is a fun adventure, the world building is great and the technical aspect is what you would expect of a Disney movie.
☼ a masterpiece ☼
someone: what’s up?
me: thinking about The Korean Gothic Lesbian Revenge Thriller That’s Captivated Cannes
beautiful acting, great directing, astounding writing, i simply love being slapped in the face by plot twists and this was an especially amazing movie because it not only had one twist but two!
i mean i had to take a fukcing step back because that shook me in the best possible way god bless you chan-wook
Ouch.
The visuals are breathtaking, as already shown by the trailers.
ScarJo is trying, you can tell that she wants this to be her new franchise.
It's edited quite nicely, it's got a (simple) story, and it's coherent.
So where did it go wrong?
One of the problems is that it takes away all of the philosophical depth from the original.
Well, that means you can still enjoy it from a simple action flick perspective, right?
Good luck with that.
This film has such a ridiculous amount of exposition, that it badly hurts the enjoyment of the film.
Many sequences consist of characters just talking to each other, and explaining the plot.
Things are definitely shown, but then the filmmakers don't think we're able to put two and two together, and hence add another explanatory scene.
As a result of that, the film doesn't take its time to develop the characters, meaning you won't care about them.
Top it off with an awful performance from Juliette Binoche, and you have your modern style over substance film.
3.5/10
We applaud when the siblings win, though we should cry. We are applauding the worldwide decision to kill the planet and everything on it. Though, it is a good movie that can make you root for human extinction.
Really surprised how much I love this. Was expecting a cheesy teen show but this is genuinely great. Definitely going to check out the comic books now.
why is Sheldon turning into a such a sexist twat? bring our lovely awkward boy back.
This show is so eerie but in an excellent way. I could totally see having these human droid bots in the future as part of everyday families. Looking forward to seeing how this season turns out!
Well, Peacemaker’s time of holding the the title of best opening credits dance sequence of the year turns out to be short lived.
This is like a great Black Mirror episode (the philosophical kind, not the dystopian kind).
I’d also highly recommend it if you’re a fan of Alex Garland (the visuals in this reminded me a lot of Devs).
We’ve seen this concept of humans and AI living together done before (Westworld, Blade Runner), but this is more focussed on family relationships and drama, which makes it very fresh.
The cinematography is out of this world, acting is top notch across the board, good score, interesting storytelling that goes in directions you don’t expect, thematically rich, tight editing, it’s really great stuff.
Just know what you’re getting into: it’s reflective and meant to give you food for thought, it’s not a pulpy thriller about AI taking over the world.
8.5/10
I watched episode 7 of the Mandalorian today, so "The Rise of Skywalker" isn't even the best Star Wars I've watched in the last 24 hours.
It's been some time since I've seen a movie that I had the feeling I should/could/would watch again and again and again but this... I definitely will.
A marvel on so many levels... the cinematography alone! And the soundtrack... and the acting. I adore this movie. It has not left my mind since I've seen it and it will be there for quite some time I think.
BEST ROMANTIC COMEDY IN YEEEARSSSSS
"What happens in the Misty Dunes stays in the Misty Dunes."
The murder of the week has never been a less significant part of an episode than it was tonight. In more interesting news, Clive is still D&D'ing!!! That is so freaking awesome. And Ravi is in the game, too, but that's not surprising. And the cute new cop joins in! Workplace lockdowns just bring people together, I guess.
All in all, a consistent hour from start to finish. And I'm really rooting for Clive to finally find a little ol' ray of sunshine in the romance department. On the character front, Isobel is an appealing new addition and the casting is good there. And finally, the absence of anything from the Robert Knepper story line is a big plus since it's been nothing but a distraction that hasn't been going anywhere.
I never was a big fan of the over-the-top and outright goofy episodes of the X-Files but this one had me giddy throughout. The writing and twists (in the meta, dis-information kinda way) were excellent and had me hooked from the start. Besides the numerous easter eggs and brain-burny comments linking conspiracy, reality, memory fiction and everything in between this was indeed a good glimpse in our present time.
The "shame shame" fingers (in our area called "sliep sliep") made me chuckle. They really don't do that anymore do they... It's all so poco. This episode was great and a sublime way of introducing the "end" of the X-Files and them being so irrelevent in this day and age (even though we all know they were, and maybe are, completely relevent still).
This episode just confirms to me that AoS is the best of the current superhero/comic shows.
Well after seeing the first episode.I can't see what all the fuss is about. It's only putting the spot light on events that are sadly true. Google college racist parties an see what goes on at some colleges. If we don't confront the issues then they will remain an issue.
Such a phenomenal and truly important episode. This is definitely the best they've ever done and certainly going in my Top 10 of the year, and probably staying there. Literal art!
I don't think many people realize how important this episode, and Brooklyn Nine-Nine in general, are. The show's talked about many issues, and I think it's very important that this episode focused on white supremacy and police brutality towards the black community. I love Brooklyn Nine-Nine and I think it's one of the most underrated sitcoms of this generation. More people should focus on this show. Please do not get it cancelled.
Definitely the most beautifully constructed body of work of the year. This aesthetic, wonderfully directed and edited piece of video keeps it compelling from the very start to the end, as Mr. Jenkins proves for the first time he is a genre virtuoso, whose screenplay is plaintively artful and remains outstanding all over the film, a combination that delivers a masterful, at times unsettling filmmaking of immaculate ecstasy. Allow me to say something short and simple as it should be: this — ladies and gentlemen — is the movie of the year. This, is the story of a lifetime.
Sobering documentary on how a small town can disregard the sexual assault of high school girls in favour of the rapists, the football jocks, and the bullying that persists for the victims. Heartbreaking and maddening. Whilst one can hope the abusers can become better people than the actions they have committed, with repentance and sorrow, there is a need to remember the victims of these crimes and how difficult it is for them to move on. The film details the stories of a few and despite the sadness there is hope.
We must all remember that our actions have consequences. We should not be defined by what we do or what happens to us. We all have a future and life can get better. Speak out against those who hurt you. Protect yourself from harm. Be a good person and treat all others with care and compassion for the human beings they are and the life they possess.
There's nothing I've ever needed more than Alex's storyline.
Chyler's performance could not be more real; she's done so much justice to Alex Danvers and made her character so legitimate.
Alex's discovery of her sexuality, her coming out, her entire experience is so, so close to my own (and likely many gay women) that I can't thank the writers enough for giving this to us. I definitely could not stop the tears when Kara told Alex she wasn't alone in it. This could not be more important at a time where it feels like minorities are continuously disregarded and mistreated. My heart is so full after this episode.
And just when you thought it couldn't get any gayer... it does
Only worth the plot of the Android
I never really expected anything from this show to impress me very much, but this episode had a powerful performance by Djimon Hounsou that proved me wrong. Very wrong.
It may be realistic for every conversation to be interrupted by a phone call or a text, but it's seriously annoying for us viewers. I was praying for them to shut off the cell phone service, and this episode my prayers were answered. Finally the government did something right...
Manny and Luke only ever want to impress girls and it just gets so boring because there's absolutely no progress. And usually it's also incredibly awkward or weird ("Don't you know anything about trains? Chicks go crazy. The vibrations get them all worked up. Also, they're trapped which is nice.")
I mean actually it's not like any of the characters can ever surprise me anymore. They all got so one-dimensional that you can basically foresee every plot twist and joke.
I love how they compared Holden and Burton's characters by the one drinking coffee and the other drinking alcohol. Very poetic.
Ok, this show just went from "pretty cool" to "amazing". I enjoyed this show, but I just fell in love with this show.
This shit is so awful.
