I've seen Get Out after Us and thought Us was the better film. It's more subtle in its intent to provoke and I found it to work better.

2021-07-12 15:34:30 +0000 UTCI didn't think of that. I was thinking more about Chris Weidman's leg break not long ago in the octagon.

2021-07-12 00:37:48 +0000 UTCGet Out is one of the most overrated movies of the past decade. The twist with Alison Williams's character is pretty obvious from the get-go, the mix of humor and serious moments doesn't always flow very well, even though my favorite part is the sequence were guests at the party have awkward conversations with Kaluuya and Williams. Also call me cynical but I prefer the downer alternate ending to the crowd-pleasing one we get in the movie.

2021-07-10 10:54:05 +0000 UTCYou should do a formal review of The Sopranos since you've mentioned it a few times as being one of your favorite TV shows. Especially since the movie is coming out later this year.

2021-07-10 10:39:53 +0000 UTCRectify is one of the most underrated shows ever. When talking about the greatest shows made in the last 20 years, it deserves to be in the conversation. Aden Young is phenomenal in the lead role.

The cast and crew were still figuring out the show during the first few seasons of Breaking Bad whereas Better Call Saul came out solid right from the gate. Also BCS has better cinematography, production design, and more subtle moments compared to BB.

2021-07-09 04:23:36 +0000 UTCJames Cameron is a far superior filmmaker than Steven Spielberg and Cameron's films are far more memorable, better characters, and more watchable than any of Spielberg's classics. Prove me wrong.

2021-07-08 23:23:26 +0000 UTCProbably won't be a hot take in this circle of film fans. But yeah, definitely had the same experience at pretty much the same time. Everything with the Disney logo on it from here on out fills me with utter disdain.

2021-07-08 23:22:21 +0000 UTCDisney is the most disgusting studio in the entire industry. After growing up on their animated classics and Pixar like we all probably did, I went through an existential crisis after the live action Lion King came out. To go from Toy Story 3, Up, and Inside Out to nothing but utter cynicism and laziness in only a few years was like emotional whiplash. Then the behind the scenes story of live action Mulan put them in a new category of evil for me. If I ever had a kid, I would never show them any new film of theirs. I wonder if anyone else went through a similar phase?

2021-07-08 23:17:30 +0000 UTCLes Miserables (2012) is a good movie. It trades the intimacy of live theater for a close, in your face camera that puts you almost uncomfortably close to the performers as a way to recapture that experience of being in the same room as a live performance. The performance, while nowhere near as technically proficient as a Broadway cast, make up for their lack of technique with deeply emotive performances. It's by no means a faultless film but I find it very engaging beginning to end and think it uses the medium of film to its advantage in a very unique way few musicals do and its better for it.
