I hope the plot revolves around Bates and Anna's baby being arrested for murder.

I only watched season 1 of Downton Abbey but, from my recollection, the show centered on the rapid decline of the landed aristocracy due to their inability to adapt to a changing world, with the house patriarch leading his family into near financial ruin, his children sabotaging one another's chances at happiness, and the servants realizing they could abandon the manor to seek other opportunities. Also, I think the first season ended with World War I and a suggestion that the family would be annihilated by it?

Am I misremembering or did the show abandon those ideas?

It became insanely popular because we limeys loving love to wallow in the Good Old Days and the yankees love authoritarian caste systems when they have English accents, so they kind of just kept being insanely miserable and loving up each other and everything around them but got happy endings anyway.

I saw it last night and wasn't a big fan :( I was really looking forward to it because Killing of a Sacred Deer was on my favorite movies of the year list last year, but The Favourite didn't come anywhere near that one. It was just kind of standard and unremarkable outside of some cool camerawork here and there.

It's well shot and acted, but easily Lanthimos' weakest film. Still worth it.

For some reason this trailer was in front of Spiderverse last night (along with trailers for two very religious movies....). It's .... It's just literally the entire plot.

I don't understand

Also who did they think was in the audience at a late night showing of a superhero movie

The movie would have been more dramatic if they had waited until after the food shortages to start production.

It's a lot less shocking so it doesn't have that wow factor but I suspect it'll be a grower

That's funny, I think that's the very reason it'll age more poorly, that it's such an immediate hit and crowd pleaser.

That being said, I had a good time and the ending was unconventional.

Cumberbatch has already played Julian Assange, Alan Turing, and Thomas Edison, so I don't see any reason why he shouldn't also play Brexit.

I'm sure Cumby played Alan Turing because they were both from the University of Manchester.

Hellboy trailer leaked, get it while it's hot: https://vimeo.com/307276977

Can't say I'm impressed. It doesn't look bad by any means, but it looks way too similar to Del Toro's version. And I was really hoping for a much smaller and more grounded movie.

Yeah... not crazy about that. The Hellboy makeup looks like a DTV imitation of the original, Harbour sounds... not as charismatic as Perlman. I like the look of Ben Daimiyo.

They initially said it would be closer to the comics and feel almost like a horror movie, what the gently caress happened to that.

Also how the gently caress has no one used Red Right Hand for a Hellboy trailer yet, I mean come on.

It was in the first movie, although it used a cover instead of the original.
