    The French Dispatch is getting destroyed by basic American critics who saw it at Telluride. Guys like Scott Mantz (who btw aligns with Oscar voter opinions and loved stuff like Green Book) hated this. Personally more excited because this sounds like Anderson's best.

    Death Sentence was so good. Why is at a 20% on RT? Also incredible how much he retained a lot of his sensibilities in his glossy PG-13 blockbuster stuff.

    Finally a movie we seem to have similar opinions on (I was a tad bit higher than you though merely because of Tony Leung and a scene involving him at the start). You could already see hints of the movie falling of the rails in the bus scene. The moment the breaks of the bus stop working, the entire scene becomes poorly composited CGI mush with some nice choreography hidden under.

    Have any major films been added to TIFF so late before?
  5. lorddemaxus
    Down to 75. The lower the score goes, the more hyped will be. Movie looked way too polished in the trailers. Something divisive and messy is what this movie needs to be.

    It would've been cool if it didn't make my eyes bleed everytime I looked at the screen. I mean Tsui Hark made more elegant dragon fights 30 years ago. And the CG here somehow looks cheaper than some of the more recent Chinese stuff I've seen.

    A industry that was made to show all kinds of movies being used to show just films from just one studio is pretty much the definition of that industry going downhill. Just because you'd prefer that doesn't change it. And maybe you should try watching those other movies too.
  8. lorddemaxus
    Yeah, that it's going downhill. Something most people here have been aware of for a long time. Nothing there to "expose".

    And The Lost Daughter is pretty much getting panned outside of the US. Spencer's reception seems to be worse outside of the US too.

    Shang-Chi 9/3 Friday 6:00 pm ~60 people Trailers: Jackass Forever Venom 2 Sing 2 No Time to Die King Richard The King's Man Eternals One joke got a really big laugh (wrote what joke it was in the spoiler thread). Awkwafina and another character I wont mention got consistent laughs. Annoying guy filming the bus fight got some laughs too. I think I heard some people whisper "whoa" twice during the last act but not too sure.

    The joke about Awkwafina's character doing a honor thesis at Berkeley got my theater crowd going wild (and would not be surprised if that happens during every show here). Only joke that got a laugh out of me too.

    What about Malignant?

    Bill Pope is dead. Its William Pope now. This guy shoots movies like a CW show.

    Was supposed to go watch this in the weekdays to watch this but me and my roommates got nothing to do tonight so we just booked a show that starts in half an hour lol

    European critics were pretty mixed/lukewarm on Power of the dog (Hand of God on the other hand getting raves) so that's where the bad buzz came from. And Belfast rose in your predictions? The movie ended up being overshadowed by two other Telluride premieres yesterday and I wouldn't be surprised if it kept getting overshadowed throughout its festival run.

    Nevermind

    The meltdowns on here are due to high expectations set by certain folks on here.
  19. lorddemaxus
    People here seem to be ignoring that basic bloggers didn't seem to have a problem with the pacing of the film.
  20. lorddemaxus
    Even with worse reviews, the movie still has more going for it. Easily would've beat BR2049 especially with December.
  21. lorddemaxus
    Seems like David Rooney covering the film for THR didn't like it.

  23. lorddemaxus
    First reaction I guess:
  24. lorddemaxus
    Lmao Billington didn't get to see this (or was his press status actually removed after the Joker incident)? Edit: No, he went to watch Spencer.
