How did you manage to watch Nightcrawler? I know you live in Malaysia…I live in Singapore, it's not out here yet. Is it in cinemas, or are there…other means to procure it?

Agreed! Nolan is indeed truly terrible at conveying spatial coherence and the passage of time, stuff that should be the most basic meat & potatoes-part of filmmaking. He over-explains the "heady" sci-fi concepts (which doesn't matter anyway, since the day is saved by The Power of Love), and utterly fails on the most…

Quite a lot - after the reveal he's waddling around in that thing for the entire second half. He's a somewhat fat Diabolik, though, not a cut John Phillip Law-type. Not sure whether that's a plus or a minus in terms of appeal.

Yeah, she's decent in The Girlfriend Experience exactly because she is playing a character that comes across as distant and dead inside. Cold, lifeless shark eyes. In this film, she's asked to cry, shriek and rage against her captor. There's a 5-minute long take where she gives a long, heartfelt monologue! Who the…

I was disappointed in this, largely because there are so many glimmers of what could have been a great film. The review mentions 'revenge thriller' as the genre he's mashed to the high technological concept, but I'd say it's even more indebted to Italian giallo. It's really cool to see the stereotypical giallo shots…

Now now, there's no need to be mean. He tries, bless him.

It probably would have been a straight-up D had it not been for the gorgeous cinematography.

Ah, but once you start venturing towards a D or an F you might get some entertainment out of it. A C is just boring, the gravest cinematic sin.

The C is well deserved. This film is a fucking turd - heartbreaking to see it dismantled like that for someone who read and loved the novel. I get that not ALL the backstory can be included, but what they chose to excise and what they chose to include is just baffling. The reveal of the killer is particularly awful.…

Aren't we all! And who can forget Ronald Reagan Cut Up While Talking:

I would say that this, Willow Creek and common sense proves that bigfoot will never be scary. But this SCP case file is pretty dang freaky:

It stinks of "I wanna write the pissiest thing possible to get some buzz". I'm sure he pictures that the TOS commentariat are gonna look back and say "LOL, remember that Birdman review? That was some EPIC ownage!!"

There are usually way less comments on TOS than here. If you look at the review of "Watchers of the Sky", which was posted at the same time and got "Essential Viewing", it currently has 13 comments. Like you say, it's because of the childish, stand-offish tone of the review.

Whuh? Even if you don't like it (I think it's great, personally), I don't see how you could see it as something he just did for an easy paycheck.

Eh, Sonia's gotta impress her former Women's Studies professors SOMEhow, so.

Drag Me to Hell was only five years ago. Dude's still got it.

Yeah, this Doctor doesn't have a catchphrase yet. Maybe it should be fucking "BAZONCHA!!" or whatever.

Can't deny that this show is good, but man: I thought season 2 was a HUGE step down from season 1. Too much of the incredibly annoying mum, too little of any of the fun characters, and the whole mental hospital bit was clearly Josh Thomas having seen Orange iTNB between seasons and thinking "I wanna do that!" I blazed…

Don't blame me, I voted for Frankenstein.

I watched it in a fantastic mood, and I thought it was a god-awful piece of shit.
