NieR Occomata posted:There is a common trend in film discourse, specifically film bro discourse (hello Snyder fans) where the movie is poorly made enough but throws enough random bullshit in there that assholes can collect the ideas they like from the movie they watched because it threw everything but the loving kitchen sink in there and praise the movie that they made up in their head and you end up having to argue against a non-existent glorified fancanon. Calm down nerd. Nobody uses the extremely debatable presence of those "easter eggs" as a defense of the movie, Army is a fun little ghoul movie on it's own empirical merits. Your question is incoherent, so of course you can't receive an adequate answer to it! If someone says that a movie has only a single tiny aspect they liked, and that's it, they're not praising it as an incredible movie - you've badly misinterpreted or confused your own made up example!

NieR Occomata posted:It’s such a poorly made film that the character that they spend the entire third act saving is never adequately written out of the film, leaving a plot hole so gaping (I guess she died in the helicopter crash? I dunno!) you could run a truck through it. By every empirical metric it’s an overlong piece of garbage that introduces a billion plot threads that serve no purpose beyond inflating its runtime while centrally failing at delivering on its stated premise, a zombie movie that’s also a heist movie. Which is more my point. As a film it so fails at every aspect of being a coherent, watchable movie because it gets so tied up in its B-Z plots and “easter eggs” or whatever defense Snyder fans use to pretend a very bad movie is good that it fails at very, you know, super basic stuff like sequential storytelling. That extremely minor character simply isn't important beyond being motivation for the daughter and maybe the coyote to join the expedition. She probably does die in the helicopter crash, but if you want her to survive she could just be knocked out! It wouldn't change anything either way. The movie is entirely sequential, there's no flashbacks iirc. How does the movie fail to be a zombie heist movie lmao Do you know what 'empirical' means

Maybe it's a bit? It's p funny to be your own example Like it's one thing to say, "so & so fans are bad at criticism/communication"? Sure, many such cases, whatcha gonna do, etc. But then to follow that up with "this movie objectively fails it's own standards" like wut, it doesn't have a single zombie or a heist in it?! What are you trying to say lol

Punkin Spunkin posted:Did France make a Napoleon movie? It's not like I want the soft treatment but between Waterloo and Napoleon (which I enjoyed elements of both of) I really want something that isn't peddling Anglo cliches. I remember watching the 2002 miniseries. It covers all the hits, avoids lionizing the man too much and is well made for a tv series but was honestly pretty boring iirc

The big bang of "I've never interacted with someone of Eggsy's socio-economic standing, but this is what they are like and what they need" coming off it is truly powerful.

One of the central elements is a train being built, symbolizing civilization coming, therefore bringing the death of the Old West.

Hibbloes posted:Okay i have a random question i need a perspective on. I just finished watching Robin Hood 2010. Towards the end, in the last big fight, the main villain of movie, Mark Strong's Sir Godfrey, decides to book it out of the losing battle, and takes an arrow into the neck as a parting gift from our hero. We see a brief shot of him reacting after getting hit, and he's smiling, almost laughing about it, seemingly. I have no idea why, it doesn't seem to reflect his character to me, or act as some callback to something earlier. I have missed plenty of obvious movie signals before, so im wondering if someone has any idea why he was like that? Sometimes you get so thoroughly owned you can't even be upset. He's just impressed at the unbelievable shot.
