I don’t think I heard a drat thing about an all quiet movie, how the gently caress did it get nominated for everything

the way the new all quiet movie changes the ending is utterly bonkers. Normally I'm cool with changing things up for adaptions but with this specific case it's dumb as hell!!

I watched M3gan, Smile and Avatar 2 last weekend with pals. I'd rank them in that order imo. Smile is really well made but has a very bog standard ending that drops all the potential threads they've been establishing and introduces the only bad actor in the film. Some people gave a poo poo about the film though, cinematography is strangely excellent and the acting is all good until the last 10%. M3gan was really fun to watch with friends and reminded me of Malignant which was my fav movie of the last while. Its basically a horror comedy with an intentional shithead main character. It got laffs from all of us and still scared the friend who isn't immune to horror films. The ending was a bit meh but as good as you could hope for if you're going with that ending. Avatar 2 was so loving long we split it into two and the second half still felt like it was 3 hours on its own. It's got some good ideas but the actual movie they made is baffling. The middle is just a kids show about making friends and learning to swim for 90 minutes. The cgi is an odd mix of very good (underwater) and looking like a high tech Myst cutscene and after a while my eyes just stopped caring about any of it. I like the whole thing being about modern humans vs the environment but as an action flick, and the evil whaling captain is obviously an evil Cameron self insert. Plus the movie ends with jake sully looking at the camera and telling you to start killing capitalists. But drat the actual things happening were mostly boring or happened by the time my brain had shut down from cgi overload

i havent seen Tar but it just seems like a movie that cate blanchett could have done in her sleep anytime in the last 25 years weird year for Award level movies where I'm just completely disinterested in any of them beyond Banshees. triangle of sadness somehow got a nom despite being a mess?? meanwhile eeaao and top gun knocked it out of the park, as did a dozen other great action movies. wheres the RRR noms at edit Best Original Song “Applause” from “Tell It Like a Woman,” Music and Lyric by Diane Warren“Hold My Hand” from “Top Gun: Maverick,” Music and Lyric by Lady Gaga and BloodPop“Lift Me Up” from “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,” Music by Tems, Rihanna, Ryan Coogler and Ludwig Goransson; Lyric by Tems and Ryan Coogler “Naatu Naatu” from “RRR,” Music by M.M.

WrightOfWay posted:The alien stuff in The Expanse sucks. God, yes. The setup is so promising as well, the different factions and their relations to each other are laid out so well, like, that's the show guys, we don't need this random external element introduced that forces them to ~ work together ~, and a boring protagonist whose only special quality is "the alien thing chose you to be the protagonist". It's like the white walkers in GoT, it is just so lazy.

It's like the white walkers in GoT, it is just so lazy. I thought I was weird for not like the Expanse. I read the first book and felt like the protagonist was too arbitrarily important and that it was too zoomed in for a system-wide story.

It's like the white walkers in GoT, it is just so lazy. It had a ton of promise to be an excellent setting with the Earth-Mars-Belter conflict and the grim reality of a corporate future dystopia and the value of commodities outpacing the value of human life as long as they kept everything in-system then the second book basically opened up the entire universe to easy exploration and expansion, undoing 90% of what made the setting unique

gradenko_2000 posted:Tár may feel politically inadequate to those who judge art solely in that fashion, but I found it to be existentially rich. And those among us who prefer our baddies to be properly punished need have no fear of disappointment. In a final scene of pure schadenfreude, we see Tár directing what appears to be a great orchestra once again. But then the camera turns to the audience: she is conducting film music, at some kind of Comic Con–type festival, to a packed theater of people in cosplay costumes and superhero suits. Tár has been relegated to the realm of kitsch, the lowest rung on the cultural ladder, which must mean she has been forced to subject her own good taste, her own fine aesthetic sensibility, to the demands of a financial necessity, i.e., she has “sold out.” And that, for a woman of Tár’s generation—believe me—is truly a fate worse than death. also this zadie smith essay was great, thanks again for posting —— great ending paragraph lol
