lmao i'm legit nervous to watch this content now i feel like i'm gearing up to listen to two guys at the old folks home reminisce about how funny it was in the new star wars when the cartoon rabbit stepped in the poopy while their nurse tries to get them ready for their nap

It is that. Honestly if you're not in the right mood for it, just skip it. It's not a good scene

Milo and POTUS: Sep 3, 2017; I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

It's super loving pretty and I'd still love a blu ray but yeah not a whole lot seems to happen before I cut it off. But in that narrow valley of stop motion feature length films, it's probably right to call it a classic

They didn't even talk about how awful the Inquisitors acting were.

I don't mind RLM having fun with the show they never cared about Star Wars that much anyway.

I might have to watch this garbage myself to see the murder museum with my own eyes. What episode is it in?

I�m really surprised they enjoy the show that much. It�s poo poo but I don�t watch nearly as much garbage as them so their standards are different.

I mean�. who COULDN�T have predicted that? I correctly surmised her backstory as soon as she showed up and the other bad guys started giving her poo poo about her past, otherwise what would have been the point of the opening school shooting scene?

You joke, but 4real this is a show where I feel tangible disdain and condescension by the creators towards their audience.

These are real people, watching the dailies and saying actual things like, "Our core demo won't care, they'll eat any of this fuckin slop." And "Just shake the camera a bit, they'll defend it on Twitter."

These people really don't like you, and resent having to take your money. I bet part of them almost wish the subscriber numbers didn't get as juiced as they do when releasing slop like this. Part of them wishes their audience was smarter, more discerning, so they would have to try harder to tell good stories, and maybe be prouder of their achievements in the long run.

But they're not, so the creators don't care. Because they don't have to. Because artistic merit is just another column on the budget excel, easily offset by other columns like "after effects" and "memberberries."

The only constant is change. This just represents the current trajectory. It's only gonna get worse.

Moon Knight starts out interesting, but quickly loses steam halfway through. The ending is straight up bad, with the plot being resolved by two deus ex machinas in a row, and having it being yet another save the world plot with two giant gods fighting each other in a huge special effects spectacle. Its not the worst show, just incredibly mediocre and forgettable.

I have a question for anyone who has seen �the natural.� I want to know if I�m missing something since I watched this on a plane. Why won�t he tell anyone where he was or where he was from after he was shot? Why does he care if people find out some nut job shot him? Seems like a really weird blackmail.

NYC and tristate folks, MoMA is showing many horror movies over the next 10 weeks.

Horror: Messaging the Monstrous
Jun 23�Sep 5, 2022

In the six decades since Alfred Hitchcock�s Psycho reinvented horror as a mainstream box office attraction, the genre has morphed and mutated to become arguably the most complex and radically provocative in cinema. Much like musicals and gangster films during the Depression of the 1930s, or science-fiction amid the threat of McCarthyism and nuclear war in the 1950s, horror movies reflect the major concerns of our times. They are often a testament to the plagues of escalating factionalism and disfunction in the world, to humanity�s collective inability to address the conditions that threaten its future, from impending environmental collapse to racial, economic, and gender-based injustice and inequity. Rooted in reality and fueled by the fantastic, these works question the supremacy of humankind, and visualize a dizzying array of consequences for our folly. No other genre so effectively explores the mixtures of shock, fear, brutality, and grim humor that result from acknowledging the fragility of existence and accepting the ultimate end that awaits us all.

This 10-week series will highlight foundational works and key films that capture horror�s uncanny ability to embody the lurking fears evoked by evolving social, cultural, and political change in the world. Organized according to fluid themes that shaped how the works were conceived�Slashers, Horror of Place, Gender and Horror, Race and Horror, the Undead, Body Horror, Women Make Horror, Folk Horror, Eco Horror, and Creatures�the series comprises more than 100 features and an international selection of shorts by seasoned masters and important new filmmakers.
