By Elchele Go To PostbasicallyWrong opinion tho
Ok. Just finished WW84. Shlock movie but not as terrible as some made it sound. It's neither Thor2 nor BvS level of bad.
2 quick things though:
1st: Whoever went ham on the fake digital film grain/noise. Fuck you. Distracting in both the HDR10 as well as the Dolby Vision version.
2nd: The optics of having IDF sympathizer Gal Gadot fight Egyptian security forces after an Egyptian "racist" wishes his land back and have the "heathens" banished forever, culminating in a giant wall through the city of Cairo resembling the Israeli West Bank wall and then have Gal Gadot grab on to a missile Steve Trevor fires on Egyptian kids playing on a road is bonkers. Fucking bonkers. Not spoiler marking this because everybody who cares or not cares should know this. Fuck Gadot. Fuck Patty. Fuck Chris Pine. Fuck anyone involved in this mess who thought that was ok.

By FortuneFaded Go To PostYou couldn’t remember Keanu Fucking Reeves?It's a 15 years old movie. Gimme a break.
Zack Snyder's Army Of The Dead hasn't even got a trailer and the prequel has already finished filming.
Matthias Schweighöfer directed it and is also the lead.
Think it's is first job as a director on a movie, he previously directed (and stared) in You Are Wanted, a Amazon Original show that I heard good things about.

By inky Go To PostLOL, nice catch. We should've known it was a Max Landis joint.Apparently the movie has been through some heavy rewrites and they've tried to distance themselves from Landis.
But that was said by Chlöe Grace Moretz and she has a past history of working with some shitty people.
By DerZuhälter Go To PostYour Name is an anime chick flick. If you say it's awesome you might as well say same about The Proposal with Reynolds & Bullock.
It's bearable but well animated.
Why go for a bad movie instead of something great like When Harry Met Sally? Oh yeah doesn't fit the narrative that romcoms are inherently bad
By Zabojnik Go To PostAre we going to at least acknowledge that Wonder Woman literally rapes a guy?
Let's just pretend the movie doesn't exist and talk about something good.
I watched this today https://letterboxd.com/film/love-exists/
Pretty big fuck you to the capitalist that exploited Paris and the French people after WW2.
By Apollo Go To PostWhy go for a bad movie instead of something great like When Harry Met Sally? Oh yeah doesn't fit the narrative that romcoms are inherently badbecase Your Name is a bad romcom, not a good one.
wish people would actually say why they think something is bad/good instead of just saying "actually this thing you like, it sucks"
People don't necessarily need to like what you like. I can say without problem that David Lynch is certainly unique and we'll regarded. But I wouldn't recommend anything I've seen from him.
Mulholland Drive, Dune, Twin Peaks, I hated anything I've seen from his stuff. Our subjective impressions doesn't say shit about the singular qualities. Or the sum of its parts.
And that's ok. Some have trouble articulating these impressions or don't have the time or energy to do that. And that should also be fine.
"I didn't like XYZ" doesn't necessarily need to be followed by a 35000 all caps - my name is FILM CRIT HULK - essay, explaining why everybody should feel bad liking XYZ.
Just please refrain from the purple GAF style of politically labeling people because they like / don't like a movie or show and don't explain it.

Just caught there's a shit storm online because the Portuguese dub for Soul is made by mostly white voice actors.
i never thought about it (because i don't do dubs) but that's obviously the case for a lot of dubs made in white countries.
By Kabro Go To Postthoroughly enjoyed Soul.
let's forget Coco ever existed.
reilo, how do you ban a mod?
By LFMartins86 Go To PostJust caught there's a shit storm online because the Portuguese dub for Soul is made by mostly white voice actors.I was about to comment that there aren't going to be that many black Portuguese voice actors, but then I remembered Brazil exists. Seems like a justified shit storm
By Kabro Go To Postthoroughly enjoyed Soul.As a Hispanic we need to take what we can get
let's forget Coco ever existed.
