I just started watching Us and was bothered enough to pause the movie get out of fullscreen and come here to say what a weird way to eat a strawberry.

Watch fearless with Jeff bridges

I never did but I was shown the scene where he eats a cherry(?) because he’s allergic and after surviving a plane crash he does dumb adrenaline junkie poo poo

All I could think of was man what a loving stupid way to die

Gone in 60 Seconds bugs me because they spend the entire movie stealing cars for this Scottish twat and at the end he’s like “yeah I’m gonna kill you anyway binch” and Cage is like “naw I’ma kill you instead”

Rendering the whole loving movie pointless

I had largely the same complaint about John Wick 2. Like I get that he's supposed to be going along with what that guy wants because otherwise he'll be banned from the Continental but it's a loving hotel chain, just give them two stars on trip advisor and tell them to gently caress off. :v:

same, gently caress that guy

bigger problem is giving John Wick a motivation to live in the series now (other than "so I can remember my dead wife") but I'll keep watching these things

I don't watch a lot of horror movies, but man alive I cannot stand the cliche where the camera sees the Bad Guy, pans back to the victim, pans back to where the Bad Guy has vanished, pans back to the victim, and then Bad Guy appears out of nowhere and does what the Bad Guy does.

I've never seen it. That was a "they did WHAT?"

the comic is worse apparently. Iirc mclovin character implies they are going to gangrape her mouth. It's implied they do

it's okay though because she's kickass' cheating ex or whatever

original Wanted comic ending (the comic also has the secret society letting them rape celebrities with impunity)

I've seen a couple of movies recently where a passenger shoots the driver of a car and even though blood splats all over the window, the window itself doesn't break, which seems unlikely. Reminds me of Pesci killing the old lady in Casino when he wraps his arm around her head before shooting her. Bullet should have went right through his forearm.

Faramir's change of character is good but only works in the extended version with the flashbacks establishing his central conflict.

But yes, more songs would have helped. The songs are important.

I bought Thief (2014), played it for a few hours and then deleted it and this was an extremely annoying part of the game. The background dialogue must've been keyed to where you were and just constantly repeated itself over and over, sometimes overlapping in a cacophony of repeated dialogue. Which was especially infuriating because I was probably in that spot specifically to scope out the path forward so imagine trying to memorize guard movements while 4 npcs jabber endlessly.

it was pretty immersive in the 90s :shrug:
