The Official Movie Thread

the funny thing with harry potter is that as the children's roles become more complex across the series you really find out which ones can actually act lol. out of the main trio rupert grint is lagging so far behind i started to feel sorry for him.

Speaking of Radcliffe though, Jungle intrigues me. It's directed by Greg McLean too, so it can't be too bad.

That one does look pretty good. I need to watch the second film and Tv series of Wolf Creek.

I have always felt Emma Watson was the worse one.

My God.
 
i will say i never found emma watson even remotely attractive and didn't get why everyone was suddenly drooling over her once she was legal lol. give me kristen stewart or jennifer lawrence any day over her.

have you seen any other ostlunds? ‘cause this sounds more or less like my take on the square; painfully unfunny, unfocused and overreaching satire that has a few interesting ideas but feels like a first draft and takes a lot of cheap shots. he really thinks he’s the second coming of bunuel or something lol. force majeure was alright but just a worse version of the loneliest planet to me (or you can just go to the source with contempt). play i don’t remember too much but i remember thinking it was provocative but shapeless as well.

I actually really liked The Square, though I don't recall it particularly well. The 'monkey' scene was always great. It definitely took some cheap shots but my memory is the humour was a lot more dry than Triangle of Sadness. I haven't seen any others.

Anyway, it sounds like whatever you didn't like about The Square is even more pronounced in Triangle of Sadness so best to give it a miss.

Triangle of Sadness was an absolute joy to view. One of my films of the year. The way it blends working class and upper class aesthetics is masterful.

Not a big fight movie guy but holy fuck this was incredible! Was not expecting the soundtrack to go so hard! And it's got a real monster of an antagonist, too.

Apparently this is Donald Trump's favorite movie lol. Meanwhile no country gave it one star on letterboxd. Need to reconsider who my friends are.

I was not prepared for this amount of Van Damme ass

This really dragged compared to Bloodsport, with way too much time spent on setup and training. The villain has very little presence in the story outside his two fights. But the last 40 minutes were quite good. Love how it just cuts to credits 30 seconds after the antagonist is downed; they know what we're here for. (Sudden Death did that, too.)

The whole section. Dropping coconuts on JCVD's stomach, the sensei playing the flute as he casually almost drowns JCVD, the underwater movements, the shin conditioning, doing those 360 kicks just above the sensei's head, the amazing silhouetted scenes at the ruins.

This is all genre staple stuff.

id rather see training montages than disney bullshit where the person is just good at everything for no reason. Live action Mulan was so offensive even my wife was like "why can she just do everything? where's the fucking dragon?"
 
Time for some garbage tonight. Fam's asleep and I'm wide awake.

I have no idea if I've seen the original but I feel like it doesnt matter. Some half ugly porn girls getting murdered and monster raped in an Evil Dead rip off. Fuck I love Evil Dead rip offs even if they're really shittyy.
