Because it’s disgusting.

Eh, Fonda is the main guy

Silverado

It really doesn't feel like a main character exists, because it shows the troubles that happen to multiple people.

“Traffic”

“The Trial of the Chicago 7”

“Magnolia”

“Spotlight”

Come to mind… I’ll think of more, if I can soon

Henry Fonda is definitely the protagonist there.

The Sweet Hereafter. It’s probably not as well know as any of the other movies mentioned buts it’s a very good indie film.

This thread is so tame and anglocentric lmao

I don't see a connection unless you imply that the meteor or asteroid that destroyed the dinosaurs instead brought a deadly cargo inside which is the Death Angels and then they wiped out all major life forms on Earth. Well I suppose in that sense its plausible but then how would you explain how the marine animals and flying animals go extinct as well? In the films, it is shown that they can't swim. It is also never shown what their life cycle is either, how do they die? What do they eat? They kill everything else around them and then they all die of starvation?

Why not simply execute them there and then?

Yeah, it's weird. Here in America, I saw one trailer before a movie a few months ago, and I go to the movies every week, and it's only playing in one or two theatres in a pretty decent sized metro area. It's pretty good though. Definitely worth seeing.

and the bit where he throws the gun at bond who catches it and throws it back, hitting him.

Just answer the question. My feet don't smell, if that's your problem.

Technically, "A Brighter Summe Day" is based on the story of a real teenager who was responsible for a crime in Taiwain as its focus point but the film is meant to be less of one person's narrative and more of an exploration about a society and its sociopolitical problems at the time that leads to the characters react in certain ways to the environment around them. Young gangs are created as a sense of security from a flawed educational system that leaves them unsure of their future, a husband and father is suspected by the government of working for the Communist Party Of China, a wife lives an unsatisfied life, etc. It is also one of the most epic stories I've ever seen and one of my favorite movies of all time.

Fair enough.

Cloud Atlas.

I feel like The Departed is like, right on the line with so many characters and how the story works out. But DiCaprio feels like hes still pretty clearly the main character.

Annihilation should be here. I'm tired of aliens being either outright monsters or just functionally weird-looking people and Annihilation dares to convey something truly out there.

"I don't know what it wants, or if it wants..."

Now that's fucking alien

This movie reminds me of my dad. We watched it together and it blew both our minds. Good times…

Gummo

The silhouette fight in the skyscraper was SO GOOD.

Great list! And I would add The Usual Suspects to that list

ummmm i think Apocalypse Now is mind-blowing, but more in the sense of it having so many moments where u wonder "how tf did they do this?"
