That movie you just watched

[Gypsy]

Oh, by the way I just watched this piece of """"avant-garde"""" garbage.

WOW how subversive! 1 hour of an unentertaining re-dub of a cheesy kung-fu film where all characters are slogan spewing machines and the "hilarious" jokes come from obscure Situationist stuff and from a female narrator who does hilarious remarks during dialog-less scenes such as "Imbecile bearing a sack of petitions, justly trampled underfoot by the servants of the State." (we get it already, STATE CAPITALISM BAD), "There is no suspense, only a jerk would not know how this ends." (yes I'm wasting my time watching this thanks for the reminder) and "For this part please refer to 'bla bla bla something something'. pages xxx-xxx." (uhh no, f*ck off lady. And yes, she does ask you to refer to one of their publications in the middle of the goddamn movie, I'm serious )

No I didn't watch the movie fully and I'll never will, I'd rather buy their back catalog of propaganda and eat page by page. That would have been more enjoyable than watching this trash that ironically undermines itself by being so propaganda filled to the point of feeling like a parody of what it's trying to parrot to the viewer.

This is obscure for a reason. A propaganda movie made by Situationists for Situationists, there is literally zero value for anyone not under their ideology. Maybe some hardcore leftist can find something here, I don't know and I certainly don't care. ZERO/10

Ha, what in the actual f*ck. How did you discover this?

I'm almost done with the Samurai trilogy. The power went out in the middle of the third one which annoyed me but I'll finish it today.

I took my kiddos to see Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle and it totally didn't suck!  Like, it had some cheesy moments, but honestly it played out like a pretty classic action flick that had some pretty well placed plot points.  It had some really funny moments too.

I'd recommend if you're looking for a fun popcorn action/comedy flick.

2 Phantom Thread
3 Three Billboards
4 Call Me by Your Name
5 Get Out
6 Lady Bird
7 Darkest Hour
8 The Post
9 Dunkirk

Now I can go back to watching trash and smut.

Interested to see Get out so far down. I've heard nothing but amazing things about it. made me wonder if I missed something

I've also heard lots of great things. However, I started watching it and instantly found it incredibly predictable and boring. I continued watching, waiting for it to finally "get good", but stopped after 45 minutes. If a movie can't grab my attention within half an hour, it's not worth finishing.

If someone on here thought this movie was great, I'd love to heard why.

Get Out was fun and I enjoyed it, but was surprised to see it lumped as one of the year's best or one of the greatest horror movies ever.

In my opinion 1-4 on my list are genuine Oscar worthy films and 5-9 have a pretty big dip in quality. Would be happy if they just went back to five nominees.

Best two movies of the year weren't even nominated.  The Handmaiden (Korean movie) and Blade Runner.

Apocalypto. (2006)

Gruesome stuff. Gibson is never content to show us just one or two decapitated heads bouncing down the steps of a temple when he can show us eight or nine.
The type of absolute fascination with gore that distracts from almost everything else the movie tried to do.

Woody Woodpecker

Being There

Great movie, I recommend it.

I still haven't watched that korean movie and that kung fu dub still haunts my mind at night.

[NightWolve]

"Black Panther."

Much hype with this one, didn't live up to it... It's so-so for action blockbuster popcorn flick, doubt I'd watch it again. I was bored at times.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to watching "Ready Player One" tonight instead!!
