I finally caught Minus One the other day, myself. (The first film I saw in theater since The Lighthouse.) The criticisms that it feel like Godzilla-by-way-of-Spielberg are about correct, in both the good and bad sense. The theater actually had a power outage toward the end, so I ended up missing everything between the destroyers crossing paths and Godzilla being towed back out of the depths.

Halloween Jack posted:There's no modern equivalent. There are still goths, but gothic style and music has been mainstreamed to the point that I don't think there are a lot of teenagers and early 20somethings who feel the need to identify as part of a goth subculture. Yeah, calling yourself a goth doesn't really mean anything beyond have certain aesthetic prefs. Some folks are just down for the Count.

There's not much that offensive exactly, but the super early Discworld novels have some matter-of-factness about some crass genre cliches that the newer books handle a little better. Still probably fine for kids.

Gripweed posted:When people say consumerism in this context, they mean an obsession with getting stuff. The mall is a symbol of the getting of stuff because up until malls all died like 15 years ago, they were the place you went to get stuff. Honestly, they weren't/aren't at all. Malls were/are just a generic third space people could go take a walk without worrying about the weather and to meet up with friends. People by-and-large did not go to malls to shop. Malls were built to accommodate people so afterwards they could build stores where people hung out. You don't go to the mall to shop at Hot Topic. You shop at Hot Topic because you were already at the mall, anyways.

That rumor has always bothered me because it seems to have come from other people deciding on Shelly Duvall's behalf that her experience should have been traumatizing. But when you listen to what she actually has to say aboutit, she mostly complains how having to cry was physically draining and otherwise seems to have a high opinion of Kubrick. https://movieweb.com/the-shining-shelley-duvall-stanley-kubrick/

Pitch Black has a perfectly calibrated amount of Vin Diesel. Any more would be excessive.

Grendels Dad posted:Not quite agreeing. You put that amount of Vin Diesel into any other movie than Pitch Black, you get Bloodshoot. Granted, but part of calibration is making certain that every other parameter is correct as well.
