Feast was dopey and juvenile, but mildly clever and a pretty decent Sam Raimi knockoff.

The only I thin I can think of is that Matt's romance is a complete non-entity who's main purpose in the story is to look hot and be a fetish object.
I just imagined Max Landis' Walk Hard and now I can't stop throwing up.
Money. The whole story takes place in almost one location, and it's a cheap location to boot. Anyone can find a swamp and an old mansion to film in.
This looks almost exactly like the first movie, just with higher quality equipment and a bigger budget.
Paranormal Activity 2 and 3 were good.
I sure can't wait for Sava's "reviews" of Iron Fist!
Actually, not really. They sort of threaten to start that plot again, but it's basically forgotten when the actual narrative starts.
Hot take: The Sabotage scene was awesome. It made me want to start high-fiving the people next to me, it's such a wonderfully ridiculous, gorgeous sequence.
If you've ever seen a single sci-fi movie before you'll be able to figure out who the villain is/was as soon as the Enterprise starts watching the Sunshine-esque crew videos of the old ship, but they do build a decent mystery out of trying to figure out what the fuck turned him into an alien.
100% good, and awesome to boot. The trailers can't show much of her because so much of her character is tied to spoilers, but she's great.
Actually, the Federation are shown to be surprisingly reasonable here considering.
I feel like someone from the Vulgar Auteur Fan Club must have made that at some point.
Watching Nolan attempt to do Steven Spielberg schmaltz is like that scene from T2 where the Terminator "smiles." The man is a robot, Interstellar is so far in the opposite direction of Nolan's work that it was fascinating to watch him try and understand what the hu-mans call romance and love.
I mean, we as a country could learn to stop thinking police-officer and start thinking Playstation.
That first XXX is a gigantic pile of shit but I watched it enough times as a teenager that I still really enjoy it.
I'm a little wary of that Atlantic article. It's a little too earnest to dismiss the pre-Gone Girl style of crime fiction as some sort of nostalgic dinosaur that should be laid to rest, and it ignores the issues the modern trends of crime fiction have now picked up in favor of claiming these stories are more "human"…
"Yes officer I have a problem, you see there are too many bullets in this gun."
I think part of it has to do with the show itself. Regardless of gender or race, it's a soap opera set in a prison and that's only going to appeal to so many people.
Oh sure, but a thinkpiece article on the Internet about a TV show isn't the same as the "ALL LIVES MATTER FUCKING FASCISTS" morons who always pop up after every PoC shooting by police.
