MOVIE TALK TIME!

On the other hand, some people might like those sorts of titles. (But I would recommend avoiding them if they mean you're putting yourself down. Don't put yourself down, especially not right at the start.)

If you want to post at a steady rate, tie your topics to regular occurrences so that you have deadlines you can stick to.
Always assume that everything you write will be read by someone. I know it's true for me, and I think it's true for most people, that the presence of an audience prompts taking greater care of every…

#HotTakeResponse: I haven't seen Only God Forgives.

I'll add the caveat that bad CGI generally doesn't bother as much it does others. But I did think it was pretty solid here, and in the screening I was at, when there were close-ups of the shark, there were definitely more gasps than groans.

I wouldn't say that, but I wouldn't stop someone else from saying it.

As I mentioned above to @PenelopeRockatansky:disqus, the backstory - while silly - isn't that significant.
Perhaps puppetry or animatronics would have been better, but I think this was a really solid CGI creature.
And I honestly thought it was rated R until I read this review. The gore is about as intense as it can get…

The backstory is hardly bloated. It is kind of unnecessary, but it apparently had an outsize effect on Ignatiy. I really don't think it gets in the way. It's like, 10% of what the movie's all about.

Exactly! I've been saying for years she just needs to focus on comedies.

And we're about to get shot?

Does H. John Benjamin look like H. Jon Benjamin?

I'd have to disagree. I thought the teaser was the best piece of minimalist cinematic advertising since American Sniper, with a premise to actually match that simplicity.
The full trailer couldn't possibly be as tight, but it did a nice job of remaining focused.

Oh yeah, I forgot that's coming out, too. Thank God I've already seen it, and that Free State of Jones is apparently terrible, because that means there are now only 5 new releases this weekend on my to-do list.

Do you mean demanding attention because of formal innovation, or because of social consciousness? Or both?
In terms of the former, I would point to The Grinder … except that I can't any longer. (But what if … I could?) I'm surprised it wasn't renewed, because FOX had lately been giving its lower-rated sitcoms a few…

It could be Wiener-Dog, Todd Solondz' latest.

SUPER CHUNK ANSWERS
1. West Philadelphia - just "Philadelphia" was accepted. (I got this.)
2. Ali and The Pursuit of Happyness (I got this.)
3. Made in America (I guessed Six Degrees of Separation.)
4. 4 - All 3 Men in Black's and Wild Wild West (I guessed 3 - I knew MIB 1 and 2 for sure. I wasn't sure if he did MIB 3 or…

That's the main reason I want to see it.
