What movie was like this for you?

For me it was a lot of films. For example Cars 2. I consider it peak. A lot of people think it's the worst Pixar film.

Another film is Southland Tales and also Hannibal Rising.

Not sure if anyone has pointed this out before, but when you watch Dune, the eye turns blue instead of green

Such a cool reference

Should There Be a Dislike Button?

I think it’d be useful for films that I would think are objectively great, but I just personally dislike outside the quality of the film (ex: Twilight Zone: The Movie). It’d also be good for people who don’t like to rate movies which gives people 3 options (Dislike, Neutral, Like)

Am I the only one with this issue?! I need to scroll for 8 seconds to access the reviews! Tried log in and off, with a VPN, in private browser... It's always like that!

What your Tuesday showtime says about you!

This is highly specific, but deal with it!

If you can see movies on a discount on a Tuesday, here is what your showtime of choice says about you:

(I'm basing these times on my local Cinemark's general schedule, so use your imagination to make the times line up with what you generally see)

10:15 AM - You either are going for a double feature, or you are half of an elderly couple who need to kill some time before the local Sizzlers opens

10:30 AM 3D - you're a criminal who belongs in jail, or you're James Cameron

12:50 PM - you're the guy who works an early morning shift that constantly goes “do you know what time I WOKE UP today???” You will definitely fall asleep 43 minutes into the movie, but won't disclose that on Letterboxd.

1:05 PM - you're a new mother who is tired of your husband playing video games instead of helping you with your baby, Carl (husband insisted on the name, you thought it was terrible from the start), so you told him you were going to the doctors, but decided to get a popcorn and watch The Devil Wears Prada 2 (it's bad)

2:15 PM - you're about to do a long overnight shift and aren't looking forward to it, but you're not gonna make it someone else's problem. You're like Ted Lasso, good lines, and very fist-bump heavy. People like you A LOT

3:50 PM - You are a child, and your parents brought you here after school. Your dad keeps saying, “I hear the new Marvel is gonna be insane.” You don't know how to bring up the fact that you have a science project due tomorrow that you haven't started

4:20 PM - I bet you thought I'd make a weed joke here, huh? That says more about you than anything I could write here… also, if you buy tickets for this time, you're probably just going on a date, then to Dave and Busters afterward.

6:50 PM - You're a UFC fighter, but you don't know how to tell your dad you want to be a baker.

7:25 PM - you're Ryan Gosling from LA LA LAND, and you're not aware you're getting someone to cheat on their boyfriend, and it's never addressed in the film

9:00 PM - coach let practice out early because you were crushing BP, nothing but dingers, and your mom took you to see Obsession, in which she covered her eyes for the last 30 minutes. After the movie, you crush four baskets of Red Robin fries.

10:50 PM - you're just a horny teenager who is mildly interested in the sheep detecting crime, but are much more interested in getting to first base with your new boyfriend/girlfriend.

Sorry, folks, thems the rules!

What Is Your Most Controversial 5/5

The fact 20th Century Fox paid Tom Green $14 million to make a movie is one of the most enduring jokes ever. I will always love how batshit insane Freddy Got Fingered is.

What films first showed you that the rules could be broken?

So I was listening to an episode of The Big Picture the other day & Network came up, and it was described by one of the panelists as one of the first films they saw that showed them you could “break the rules” of cinema. And so I’m wondering what those films were like for yall: what did you see that made you sit up and ask “wait, you can DO that”?; what made you see the movies in a new way?

My answer is very route one: Eraserhead. On the wave of a horror kick I found my way to Lynch and it ended up knocking me sideways — and definitely doing a lot to shape my taste in horror & experimental film
