r/movies btw

I thought that movie was a lot of fun.

Made me think he was dead for a second there OP

If you haven't watched Arronofsky's (director) other films, you really should. One of the best storytellers in the industry today.

I haven't seen The Whale yet (or Mother), but Requiem for A Dream is one of the most emotionally devastating movies I have ever seen.

Boy, I've never heard The Weeknd talking. Is he gonna do those sing-talk kind of thing here like they do in those musicals ?

But jokes apart, I genuinely want to hear The Weeknd's talking voice for once.

I'm not sure how you could use something like that as a part of the plot, but breaking those "rules" has been done a lot.

The camera breaks the 180 degree rule at the end of American Beauty as Lester changes his mind.

You also have Ozu's entire filmography. He would consistently break the 180 degree rule, have characters speak directly into the camera, ignore continuity if it meant getting a better looking shot.

Switch, Seal Team (2021)

All of them equally, except the Oldboy remake.

That wasn’t a good performance in a shitty movie, that was a shitty movie with an even shittier Sharlto Copley performance. He had no idea what to do with that character.

Literally everything else he did is gold.

Crimes of the Future most recently.

Unpopular opinion (maybe): I hate it when famous singers use their fame and influence to force themselves in Hollywood. Just let real actors and film creatives who don’t have your fame have a chance. It’s already too difficult as it is, and now they have to compete against famous people who decided on a whim some Sunday night that they wanted to be in Hollywood.

Between this and David Byrne singing the EEAAO song, I'm hoping there will be some decent musical performances at the Oscars.

Lots of spoof movies. Frank Drebin walking round the set wall instead of through the door being a classic example.

Sarcastically, I'm in charge

I absolutely love Ready Player One, and in the same vain Alita, they’re just fun movies. I can’t wait for both sequels

Jodie Fosters The Brave one has a scene of her and a character having an intense conversation sitting next to each other but never looking at each other. At the end of the scene it's revealed theres a big mirror in front of them and they were making eye contact with each other through the mirror.

Not so much a mistake the movie turned on its head but I felt it sort of works for the question

The opening 40 minutes or so are so intense and then it finally let's up and you can breathe but you are still 100% invested in the story. Great movie!

Army of Darkness

Please do not pull an encanto again and totally wreck the performance.

Why is it not being an accurate adaptation a sign of lacking quality? The parts where it deviated from the source material were by far the best parts of the movie

Abel is kind of a douche, but I'm here for Trey, Jenna, and Barry.

Helpful, thank you.

Waves is one of the most underappreciated films of the past decade.
