You betcha!

I completely agree with you about Gone Girl. Fincher is doing that remake of Utopia next, and if you are familiar with the original you know there's a lot more substance there for Fincher to explore.

How can that be less fun? Man, I want a David Bowie sex dream.

'71 Very good movie, I enjoyed it a whole lot. Tight, energetic direction, wonderful actors (between this and Starred Up, Jack O'Connell joins my list of cinematic crushes, he's going to have a sterling career, he has buckets of charisma and talent, this guy), stunning cinematography, with some really pretty night

It looks quite promising to me. Granted, I kind of scare easily. But it sure looks pretty, and I like all the actors involved. Jessica Chastain in particular seems to relish her part in this.

The man made the Robocop remake and The Killing. He can't go but up.

Well, it could've been a whole lot worse. I'm mildly optimistic.

While Phil Collins' In The Air Tonight plays in the background.

If you think that Haneke is all about punishing the audience you're missing a whole lot of what a layered, intelligent auteur he is. Some people here say he's not complex, when he is the very definition of complexity and intellectuality. He just makes you angry because the end goal of his movies is not to make people

The Hunt. Really? It's such a formulaic, didactic, moralistic and drab, stuffy movie. The performances were good, yeah. There are a lot better, more original and cinematically innovative movies on that list. To each their own, I guess.

You assume correctly.

That happened to me with Polanski's What? I saw it when I was about 10, not knowing much about movies and it left me kind of wonky. All I could remember for a long time was this thought that it was the craziest thing I've ever seen and a scene in which the woman protagonist showed her fanny to a dying old man. I still

Mel Gibson's Braveheart.

Well, I'm the opposite. Amour made me feel such sorrow for these characters and filled me with dread, but The Fly just felt kind of meh, even though I love Cronenberg's work. Maybe Geena Davis is part of the reason. She's a sleepwalker in that movie, and poor Jeff Goldblum had to carry the whole film by himself.

Post Tenebrax Lux. That's a mindfuck of a movie. And the opening was just superb. There's a magnetism and dreamlike quality about it that really draws you in. I can't understand the people who say it's boring and unintelligible, it's a mesmerizingly bizarre piece of art.

That's a mighty long list you expect people to know. I'm only familiar with Jubilee, as I love the X-Men. I like superhero movies, but I haven't read a comic book in my life. I suppose I'm like a heretic to you.

Considering this site wants Childish Gambino as Spidey, you could say that.

I presume these are all Asian American superheroes (I have no knowledge about superheroes that didn't have cartoons in the 90s), but I don't think we'll have movies about them in the near future. So, I still vote for Asian Spidey.

Jack O'Connell? He's bound to get into the superhero business, so why not this? Although I'd like to see an Asian American as Spidey as I said downthread.

Oh, stop it, I didn't even think of that.
