Wuhu, a sequel, a reeboot, and another sequel. No wonder we live in the golden age of television, not film.

Grampa Simpson AND Lovecraft in the same sentence? I bow in front of you!
Stormy Weather (1943) is easily one of the most entertaining musicals of all time: https://www.youtube.com/wat…
Well. There are a couple of extremely bad films I coudn't stand watching in the cinema. I first would have gone with Beowulf, but that was actually a quite an entertaining mess. Pearl Harbor was quite similar, except for that it's waaaay worse, since you have to sit in that cinema for nearly 4 hours. Nothing works in…
Take a shot whenever Simon and Garfunkel's "Baby Driver" is heard playing in the background and you are in for a great evening.
Uh. You know what would help? Making interesting movies would help… but that comes only with effort, and it's much easier to complain.
I might be in a minority here, but I think Chicago is really a great film. Damn well edited and acted, and it finds an interesting way around the "Why is everybody all of the sudden dancing and singing?"-trope, that tend to take me out of the story of musical films. As for the other films in the set: No Country is…
Alright, here's my crazy bonkers theory: Could VU&N be so influential BECAUSE it's not perfect? I mean, what you call "just fine" in the article, I'd call "imperfect" in the same way, that the Venus of Milo is imperfect… The sometimes poor production value, the noisy recording, the not-quiet-there songs, they really…
Here in Switzerland, we simply call it "Pants on Fire". (And I totally did not just make that up…)
Yea, well. I mean, it's always a bit tricky, since not every calendar year is bound to have an undesputed masterpiece, and more often than not has at least a couple of films I'd consider great, especially during the 70s. Also, it really comes down to the definition of "best" in best picture. I think, as pleasing and…
I agree with Fury Road. However much I love Star Wars, I think Annie Hall blows it out of the water…. have you watched it?
So, if we can retrospectively change the best picture winners, can we FINALLY announce "Brokeback Mountain" as the winner?
So deep, broh.
I agree, the Nerdwriter is sometimes a bit shallow. I think he's best when his videos are not about films, like the one about President Trump's use of language. https://www.youtube.com/wat…
"Bring out the gimp."
"But the gimp is running for Vice President…."
Stop being a dick, Jesus.
Oh crap, there goes another interesting premise down the gully. It's one of these "let's put all the funny stuff already in the trailer"-trailers. Could Hollywood please stop treat its audience in this condecending way? Just once?
Maybe any of you know, but how did he get elected TWICE?
That's very interesting, thanks for the quote. Isn't this basically the argument Some republicans made to argue against gun-safety measurments in mass-shootings?
Yep. That scared the shit out of me as well when I re-watched it the last time. A politician like, for example, Andrew Jackson would be unelectable today, and Trump is very much that man.
