I watched a Dick Tracy retrospective on youtube after it came up in the last thread and it had some interesting stuff about the film's relationship to Warren Beatty's general career trajectory but tragically it was Patrick H Willems

save you a google: his brother jonathan wrote the line, and nolan was bringing it up in the context of how oppenheimer was treated after the manhattan project for some reason christopher nolan is very interested in how the public builds people up as legends and then tears them down lol hmm

My folks, in their early 70s, are after me to watch something together so I turn to you nerds for some rec's. Framas and thrillers, no excessive gore and no sexuality. No horror. They can handle some language and the occasional scifi. Last thing I screened for them was Sling Blade, which they loved, but that's a downer. They loved Arrival. They liked No Country but found it paced too slow. Doubly so for The Conversation. They don't really get the quirkiness of Coen Bros stuff. Any ideas? I would thinking There Will Be Blood. Struggling to think of more middle-of-the-road dramas that are worth watching that won't offend old fogeys too much.

I can recommend you some B+ dramas that I think moms and dads might like but they are not as good as There Will Be Blood the finest hours, deepwater horizon, the descendents, stranger than fiction, that jim carrey one with the memory wipe machine or I could recommend some of the best movies ever made?

So, one of the Youtube movie critics parodied on Nerd Crew refuses to review Madame Web because he's a "positive guy" and saying negative things about a piece of poo poo garbage movie directed by a WOMAN featuring WOMEN is just toxic behavior and wrong.

On the other hand it's very boring when something everyone knows is terrible comes out and every person whose bread n butter is making background noise videos take their turns dumping on it, nothing new or interesting to add, just having permission to dump on something and taking their whack at the already busted pinata.

Seems to do a good job painting a picture of the late 90's Tokyo scene and doesn't fall into the trap of focusing too much on Ansel Elgort's character. He's a huge gently caress up more than anything else. It got me interested in checking out Shogun, but I love the book and something tells me I'll be disappointed by the show.

All the characters are spread out and doing their own things independently of each other, but it's all interesting and you get the sense that it's building towards something.
