Ah, so Birds of Prey has kitschy, campy visuals and it’s a masterpiece, but Eli Roth does the same thing and it looks “inevitably bad”, huh?

NGL, to see the clique that has dominated the Hugos for the last decade or so getting a taste of their own medicine is quite enjoyable, in a schadenfreude kind of way.

False.

The thing is, the movie presents Hobie subjectively, as the perfect embodiment of “the boy you think the girl you like digs”: he’s rebellious, mature, handsome, has cool stuff, etc. By design, it’s unclear how much of that is true and how much is just Miles’ feelings of inadequacy and romantic jealousy.

I thought the book was absolutely terrible. But the trailer looks, at least, interesting. I’ll probably give it a chance.

That’s not true, tho.

Considering the general critical consensus seems to be somewhat mixed, that selection of tweets is a little... curious.

I have a soft spot for Brannagh, and that includes his two forays into Agatha Christie adaptations. Okay, yes, Nile was terrible, but I found Orient Express much better than I expected, and I really like what Brannagh does with the character, ridiculous accent and all. So... considering this, and considering that this…

But if they don’t write a 1200-word article about it, how would people know they are in the *right* side?

Yes. The F&F series has wholeheartedly embraced the Dragon Ball dynamic of “your worst enemy at the moment will be your best friend in a couple seasons” for a while now AND I LOVE IT.

I honestly don’t see the point of this. First, there is no chance in hell that a Hollywood studio-helmed project can portray even a fragment of the things you see in Speak no Evil- when they say they were deliberately trying to do Denmark’s most disturbing movie ever, they are not being hyperbolic, and I would like to…

Saw it in the Sitges Film Festival. It was absolutely hilarious.
