  1. I just judge horror movies based on how fun they are now. I'm not looking to be scared because films rarely do that for me, just keep me entertained. Malignant was my favorite horror of the last few years because it was a god damn blast, not because it was frightening in the least.
  2. But what do his justifications matter if he knows his actions are going to lead to a genocide? I just can't see him as anything other than evil.
  3. I get the criticism of Alien: Isolation being too long / weirdly paced, but I enjoyed the fuck out of pretty much every second of it and probably still would've even if it were twice as long. That was the ideal game for me. I love Alien. I love horror and feeling frightened, but horror movies rarely if ever scare me anymore. That game probably made me feel the most genuine terror and fright from any piece of media I've ever consumed.
  4. All this #discourse over what a movie that you haven't seen yet is trying to say. Movies are back
  5. People act like Prometheus & Covenant are the worst pieces of shit ever made but they're perfectly watchable despite their flaws. Same for Cubed, haven't seen Resurrection.
  6. Honestly, pretty good Oscars. Seemed like the was a determined effort to get the hell on with it and not have the thing last all night. John Cena, Danny DeVito and Arnie were fun. Kimmel's a good host. I'm Just Ken was great, c'mon. Some nice speeches. Godzilla & Wes Anderson winning. Great gowns. Good show.
  7. Correct choice. Would've been annoyed if Oppenheimer won best sound, I couldn't hear a word of dialogue over the music.
  8. Watched it again yesterday and had a much better theatrical experience this time. Better seat, better screen, better edible. Movie holds up fantastically on rewatch, still an A+ Some random thoughts: In the beginning when the Harkonnen soldiers are being sniped on top of the hill and one of them says to use their shields, why does the other soldier say no? Seems like the right move. Both times I watched it, for a brief second I thought the harknonnen bodies lying in the desert were crash test dummies. They're so pale. Stilgar's "of course the Lisan al Gaib is humble!" moment got a big laugh both times. Javier Bardem doing the literal "mind-blown" gesture is so funny. He's great this whole movie. I thought he was underused the first one but I see they had a plan for him. The harvester attack would make a great encounter in a video game. ^How do you not root for this guy in this moment? Austin Butler and Lea Seydoux lowkey have better chemistry than Chalamet and Zendaya Speaking of Chalamet, his performance gets so much better after he drinks the water of life and gets some bass in his voice. I'm so over the whisper talking that's so prevelant now Loved Lady Jessica's villainous turn. Al her scenes using where she uses the voice are so menacing. All in all I'm just obsessed with this movie. I had a similar experience with the first one but this one is even more captivating. I think I'm going to start reading the books, I was on Quora and Reddit finding out more about the story and world and it's really fascinating.
