Reply to guillermo del toro pinocchio by IdealCreative3781
You loved the film? It is baffling to me that you would love a film that you couldn't finish because you found the voice of the title character so annoying.
I will never bother to watch this, mostly because I don't give a shit about a Pinocchio movie and Del Toro movies are trash.

Knowing that Rosebud is the name of his sled doesn't ruin anything.
Feels very weird to get downvoted for this correct and true statement.

Counterpoint: I think it's selfish to ask everyone to cater to spoilerphobes.

Reply to How do you feel about movies with main stars that were cancelled / or had done nefarious things in the past? I post this after having watched American Beauty tonight. by Fischer_Jones
Its just the free market working as intended.

History Buffs (good YT channel) covered this years ago.
Ultimately, as long as there are no discernible words, I don't see a problem with it. It would be weird if the germanic tribe was speaking Zulu, but the chant is just intended to be intimidating in both cases.
EDIT: Just found an example of a recycled effect that irrationally annoys me in movies. This wooden door sound is forever associated with Diablo in my mind, but keep hearing it throughout a surprising number of movies. The Wilhelm scream is amusing, I don't mind it. But this one just sounds lazy, like no one's recorded a new door sound in at least 20 years.

Reply to comment by Trxnquill in What are the Top 5 films you think got snubbed from a Best Picture nomination? by Positive_Yam_9125
I didn't think the story was boring in the slightest. I thought it was compelling to watch Dani's journey throughout the film.
>!She starts off feeling lost after the passing of her parents and sister. Then we watch as the cult cleverly disconnects Dani from anything she has left of her old life. She feels that the only real home she has left is with them!<
Then of course the great acting, cinematography, and dialogue. It's definitely not for everybody.

Krull (1983) was not a good movie, but has a great score by James Horner.

Reply to I keep end up disliking good films simply because all the characters are sad degenerate fucks and I hate them for it. Is there a trick to liking these kinds of films? by KellyKellogs
Wow, you don’t deserve to be called a psychopath for not rooting for insufferable people doing insufferable things. That’s kind of the opposite of a psycho anyway.
I also am not a fan of the trope. I need a reason to spend 3 hours of my life with a bunch of characters, and those films never provide it. But that’s why I check out of sigma cinema in the first place.

Reply to Are there any movies that use fundamental movie making mistakes as plot devices? by concept_I
Honey bunny’s line delivery in pulp fiction … the change from the opening sequence to the final sequence is to show that we are watching the scene with a different character as protagonist (ie Jules instead of Ringo)
Or it’s just an editing mistake …

This is my answer for life and I will gladly die upon this hill.
The assumption that everyone has seen the movies you've seen is really fucking weird. There are young, healthy, sapient, literate humans scrawling the internet every day that have no idea what happens in <your favorite movie from the 70s, 80s, or 90s> and it's weird that you would include those people in your arbitrary spoiler timer. Why punish 15 year olds for not being up to date with all of your favorite 30 year old movies?

I've noticed it's becoming a thing now that weirdos try to downplay Goodfellas and how incredible it is.
