Yea that’s funny to read about the suits. I was just listening to an interview where Daniel Kwon talks about how he learned to use after effects to do his own vfx in college, and decided to do the vfx like that with a group of his friends vs a big post studio.

It's also funny reading about Swiss Army Man and how Dan Radcliffe tried to do as much as possible himself, which included the scene where Paul Dano rides him around like a jetski.

What a fuckin' movie A friend recommended it to me and I'm glad he did. After leaving the theater, I texted him that it was like a Satoshi Kon film with a Marvel budget and a Vonnegut moral. drat.

Did anyone's audience get faked out by the The End after Act 1 and have anyone stand up to leave?

I'll just say that as someone who has struggled with depression and anxiety, being able to see the good in life despite knowing everything is enviable because the alternative loving sucks.

When the bald headed security guard assumes his fight stance in the final fight scene you see his big floppy wiener and it’s like “did they intend for the floppiness of the wiener to impact the severity of the fight scene or was the stuntman just hanging dong and James Kuan was like “brilliant! Use it!”

I liked how that fight involved a particularly high number of splits and high kicks, just really hammering his pantslessness home.

This was an amazing theater experience. This movie gives you an insane, balls to the wall amount of tonal/emotional whiplash between joy, frustration and awkwardness, but it's all earnest and earned. I physically recoiled when Evelyn describes her life as a movie star and that she should have left Waymond. All the principals are great; I'd never seen Stephanie Hsu in anything before and I was blown away by her performance, especially as regular Joy. Quan is so good in every scene he's in. The film asks how we defeat nihilism, and the answer is plain, simple kindness. My favorite Easter egg that might not be an Easter Egg: I don't speak Chinese, but I could have sworn I heard Gong Gong call Evelyn Shu Lien as her Chinese name, which was the name of the character she played in CTHD. Movie of the year, and probably high on my all time list. I can't wait to see it again.

The rest of the movies of 2022 are gonna have to work real, real hard for this not to be my film of the year (all years? Possibly!). I laughed, I cried, it was exactly the movie I needed to see in my life now. And just in time for tax season, too!

I absolutely love how this little $40mil movie came out smack dab in the middle of the giant Multiverse tentpole craze with the MCU and now DCEU and their narrative interpretation of corporate mergers and absolutely sets the bar extremely high and blows poo poo like Loki out of the water(and I loved Loki). Sam Raimi has some stiff competition this year.

I don’t think EEAAO multiverse has much to do with MCU multiverse. They’re using the same borrowed concept from physics but employing it for entirely different ends. Apples to (rotten) oranges.

Eggnogium posted:I don’t think EEAAO multiverse has much to do with MCU multiverse. They’re using the same borrowed concept from physics but employing it for entirely different ends. Apples to (rotten) oranges. Well yes that is fairly obvious. Point being there's an edge to the inventiveness of how they incorporate the multiverse into the action scenes and narrative that outshines most of what they do in the tentpoles. As fun and nostalgia bait cool as all this multiverse stuff is, youd be kidding yourself if you didnt recognize theres an element of obvious big studio merger influence as to the why and how. For DC its some sad attempt to fix their gently caress ups with the start of their film universe. All of this reflects on the screenplays. My point being this movie is free of that and it shows, a lot, and the genre is better off for it then strictly being dominated by Marvel and soon DC. This movie is generally very much part of the current Hollywood zeitgeist but also absolutely shatters through it. With $40mil. It is absolutely fair to compare them. The Russos were even producers on this movie. I say this as someone who enjoys and is excited for all the comic book movie multiverse poo poo Im just so absolutely elated they took this very currently popular concept and made something this good with it before its been completely run into the ground by Marvel and DC.

I think it’s like comparing Chef and Halloween. Yes, both are exploring uses of kitchen knives but for entirely different purposes so it’s not that deep a comparison. EEAAO is in the tradition of Blind Chance, Run Lola Run, and other movies that explored how choices impact our fates through the narrative device of a multiverse well before the MCU even existed.

In one interview i heard, the Daniels talked about how their idea for this movie came from seeing how fractured the internet felt with all its little communities and the chaos that happens when the different groups clashed. So the multiverse is a tool to look at not only the personal choices and family dynamics, but also how divided the world can feel. I guess we will have to see how Raimi uses it. I assume it will be used at least to introduce new characters and make various ones fight each other, but maybe they will explore some interesting ideas too.

It’s gonna be for cameos mostly. But I’m sure it’ll have some fun rear end Raimi angles

Waking up in a dreamy haze from a long nights sleep and the first thought I had waking up was “it got lost in the chaos of the ‘escape the IRS’ scene but Evelyn explaining Racacoonie and everyone, audience and characters, all having the same moment where we think Evelyn is misremembering the popular film “Ratatouille” and that subsequent payoff were nuclear-level gags that both subvert and give in to your audience expectations at once, an astonishing piece of meta-adaptive screenwriting. Also, did anyone else not even notice it was Jamie Lee Curtis until the credits rolled? Everyone is acting their pants off in this flick but her physicality in this role was phenomenal, she was LOVING it! She disappeared into the roll, and I bet that was really her in the “and now I’m standing up straight and I’m really tall and in great shape” sequence.

Apples to (rotten) oranges. I mean, hell, Rick and Morty brought multiverse silliness into mainstream consciousness like what, 8 or 9 years ago? Marvel doesn't own the concept of multiple realities, they just grew and reached a point where they finally have to acknowledge it as part of its own comic book history (and to be able to continue writing movies after the whole Infinity Stone arc). This movie was really good, btw. Saw it yesterday on a whim (but in kind of a lovely theater), and I fully intend to see it again in a better theater very soon.
