It's the equivalent of liking a band but hating every band that inspired them.

I don’t know if it’s been discussed before but Norsemen on Netflix is loving hilarious. I’m not done but the gist of it is Vikings but as a workplace mockumentary with modern dialogue. It’s smart, dark, and makes me laugh hard.

Watched Devilman Crybaby last night and marathoned the whole series. You were all right it was pretty gonzo. I remember watching parts of the original OVA and I was surprised that they had managed to keep a lot of the really over the top violence that I thought was really cool as a young edgelord.

The marketing for It Comes at Night was all wrong. The trailers present it as a white-knuckle post-apocalyptic zombiethon when it is actually a very subtle and considered character study with an imperceptibly slow ramp up in tension (with no zombies). It's no wonder the movie has such negative word of mouth.

And the ooh dark ending. Bleah

The true monster is man. Welcome to The Twilight Zone. The problem with approaching the advertisement for It Comes at Night is that it needs to functionally compartmentalize the main features of the film. In the film itself, there is in fact no monster, no hint of a monster, the plot is about a deadly contagion, and the "It" of the title is referring to nightmares. So when you boil that down to a two-minute stinger, you have pure evocation divorced from plot, so the irony becomes that a completely new narrative is created in the mind of the spectator, in which the "It" is referring to some kind of boogie-man. Potentially, some spectators may have assumed it was a monster movie because of its aesthetic and titular similarities to It Follows. The marketing wasn't "wrong," per se. They did everything they were supposed to do: showing tense, spooky imagery while giving away as little of the plot as possible, drawing in the viewer based on the filmmaking rather than superficial content. It's a very interesting example of where the trailer is a work of experimental art that's almost as compelling as the film itself. The trailer puts you into the mindset of the characters, it invents a diabolic force that the film then clarifies is just the abyss of their own fears looking back at them. You are the monster.

Not sure what you mean by "fun to watch" I found the whole thing gripping. It was pretty obvious it wasn't going to be a fun movie.

All this talk of It Comes At Night makes me think of this lovely movie called something like It Knows or It Follows I saw at a film festival. Probably half the dialogue was ‘What is it?’ ‘It’s it.’ like that Faith No More song.

If you liked It Comes at Night (I did), you should catch the director's first movie Krisha, on Prime. Wrote, directed , and edited the whole thing, shot in his mom's house using a lot of his family members as cast. It was hard to watch, but great. That dude is a real talent and really knows how to move a camera.

A bit late to the party, but Altered Carbon stays legit. I'm up to the seventh episode and so far it maintained its quality really nicely. It actually manages to nail that kind of noir-ish cyberpunk atmosphere, which is pretty surprising for an apparently quite big-budget show that aims at a mainstream audience.

Someone said it earlier, but everything involving the cop's family in Altered Carbon is terrible and feels totally out of place. I really hope that was just a one episode thing and not part of a bigger trend, because they just wasted like half an episode on it.

Joel Kinnamon looks like he went around to all the disgraced Russian Olympians and Para-Olympians, stole all their PEDs, and mainlined them for his Altered Carbon audition dude got huge

His head looks kind of weird on that body lol. I suspect he got huge to play Robocop.

I suspect it's because, for Hollywood, Kinnaman might as well be Shaq.

Just watched A Futile and Stupid Gesture on Netflix. It's about the guy who founded The National Lampoon magazine. Will Forte is delightfully unannoying in it, but what makes this a must-watch is seeing who they cast to play a young Chevy Chase.
