The cinematography alone made it worth a nomination, but beyond that, there’s a lot more to praise about it. It’s so unique and touches on a ton of different ideas. And the sitcom flashback may be the best single scene I’ve seen in a 2022 movie.

That said, Goth absolutely deserved to be nominated.

Are you alleging that Alanis went down on him in a theater?

I didn’t realize Dr. Pepper at McDonald’s was a regional thing. I’ve never been to one that didn’t have it. Though McDonald’s isn’t usually my first choice when I’m visiting somewhere else.

Yeah. For me, it’s where the focus of the film is, as my earlier comment alluded to. Could easily shift the perspective and the music choices slightly and make a lot of thrillers horror.

Letterboxd agrees.

Yeah, most movies in general are not good or at least not great, but being good is less of a qualification for being financially successful or beloved in horror than in many other genres.

Is Silence of the Lambs really terrifying to you? It’s not to me at all. Having creepy things in a movie doesn’t make it horror. The focus is on Clarice solving the crime and her growth as a character, not on scaring the audience. It’s like Se7en in that regard. Also creepy and potentially scary for some people, but…

I don’t actually expect it, but it’s as likely as the AV Club not reporting on every single response, which is what’s being asked here.

True, but the reporters should still stop asking that same question repeatedly.

It’s not totally their fault. They’re not the ones who keep asking every single person connected to the MCU in any way to give their thoughts on something Martin Scorsese said like three years ago.

LOL You accuse me of “being a hater” while calling Microsoft a “cheap whore” and making fun of people who own their consoles. This entire response is juvenile console wars bullshit.

Did you not read the article? 50 Cent’s music career may not be what it once was, but he’s been very successful as a TV producer.

60+ points is pretty wide, no?

“I ain’t got no duds. I’m battin’ a hundred, I’m battin’ a hundred.”

Yeah. Just got added. People have been making a big deal about it.

Thora Birch perhaps. She was 17 when they filmed American Beauty. Her father is a former porn star and a real piece of shit, so it wouldn’t shock me if there was some coercion.

But Sony “building up relationships” with studios and talking them into making their games exclusive was also bad? How does them buying the studio after years of that make it better?

I agree that Microsoft buying Activision is bad for consumers. I do not agree that Sony buying studios was better because they had “a working relationship.”
