re-watched Poltergeist (1982). still slaps even after 40 years. I miss movies that establish characters and families in a way that is empathetic and relatable. I totally forgot that the parents in Poltergeist smoke dope and laugh at silly little jokes with one another after putting the kids to bed, and they aren’t painted as delinquent freaks for doing so. the kids are also pretty great in the film — they aren’t precocious and wise, they act like kids — and do/say things that actual children would do. Even Carol-Anne, the youngest, has her own personality that reflects what a six year old girl would be like. You can tell she’s kind of weird, but she’s weird in a little kid way, not a ‘wise beyond her years’ way. spielberg’s touch is also all over the directing. the film really effectively moves from a feeling of wonderment about the haunting (the mom is so excited by it that she shows off Carol Anne being moved independently on the kitchen floor by the spirits to her husband) and pivots to outright terror/horror as things ratchet up (a steak coming to life and crawling on the counter…) there was a good Reddit comment about this movie that said that it didn’t make you afraid of the spirits/terrors that infest the house, rather it made you afraid for the family because it so effectively sets up the dynamics of the Freelings in the first 1/4 of the film. I have to heartily agree with this. Horror without some kind of empathy with the characters is just a demo reel of effects. what do you all think?

just watched black adam and it was fun. felt like a super hero movie that was before marvel. the script was pretty funny, but I enjoyed watching the rock killing and melting people. I also liked all of the second string heroes. very very enjoyable imo

I tried watching it and just couldn't. Its not like the Munsters was art or anything to begin with, but that movie was a rare display of anti-talent. It wasn't just not good, it somehow directly subtracted a quantity of fun from the universe. What a rare achievement.

Aglet56 posted:rotten tomatoes' whole pitch is that even though it just boils down any individual review to "thumbs up/down," if you aggregate all of those, you can get percentage grade that's supposed to be totally ordered. that is, a movie with a 90% RT score like, say, hot fuzz is supposed to be better than a movie with a 60% RT score like, say, die hard 2 even if no individual critic came out and said "i like hot fuzz better than die hard 2." Die Hard 2 is better than Hot Fuzz

I like it but it's not great without a doubt his worst is last night in soho. it's ugly, unfunny, eyerollingly unsubtle and its plot is just a recycled Doctor Who b-plot. a completely unnecessary movie. As kind of unnecessary as Baby Driver is, it at least has a lot of style. soho is just a waste.

Remember when GB2016 got like a 90% on RT the year it came out because reviewers were legit afraid to say it sucked and gave it 3/5 or 2.5/4 or whatever the lowest possible score was that RT considered "fresh"

Yeah, either Last Night In Soho or World's End are Edgar Wright's worst films. But you know what not's the worst? Andor. (But it's also not the best because that's Avenue 5.) But Andor is pretty loving good. The villains are what make the show for me; I don't give a gently caress about Cassian Andor and don't find him compelling, but the nazi twunk and the desk jockey with permanent fart face are pretty good love to hate villains. Mon Mothma is decent too.

loquacius posted:Ghostbusters, sorry I find this movie especially disappointing because, if it weren't for the fact that they insisted on making it a Reboot rather than a Sequel PLUS the bad Paul Feig "just keep improvising and I'll keep rolling until we run out of film" direction, the bones of a good Ghostbusters sequel are in that script. I actually really like the idea of the villain - a guy who has studied the ghost trapping tech and used it to make something that attracts ghosts instead because he doesn't necessarily view them as like "pests" to be eradicated. But the movie itself is SO bogged down with those shot, reverse shot scenes of two comedy actors doing bad extended improv bits that it like can't even get off the ground. The opening scene alone is like 10 minutes long just so Zach Woods can really stretch his legs and do as much comedy as possible - in a scene that, in the original, is maybe a minute tops and exists solely to introduce the concept that ghosts exist.

I just mean that so often when you aggregate like that the summary of the reviews in total boil down to "good but not great", "bad", or "AMAZING" The 30-50 movies are the ones that reviewers have really divergent opinions, movies that people see in incredibly different lights based on their personalities and life experiences, the weird movies, all that stuff
