Why don’t they just release it on HBOMax? “

I think they would like to make some money.


This is one of those comments that are just self-reviewing

So you’re saying the more we are asked to notice when people make mistakes, the better we’ll learn, privacy be damned?

What you do in your personal life and what you film and upload to the internet without people’s permission are entirely different things. Also, just because something exists in the entertainment sphere doesn’t always make it ok (see hidden camera prank shows).

Sure, we all laugh at people’s foibles, it’s human nature

Yes.

Yes, it’s very -- uh, I did this already.

Is this some kind of joke?

Yeah, I just don’t agree with that at all and I wish people didn’t take it as such as given. There’s absolutely wonderful stuff in the whole movie that builds on and pays off the themes set up in those perfect first five minutes.

I’d argue that Up is one of their most daring films because it manages to not have any real rules about how it’s world works, establishes nothing but Carl’s backstory, and we still buy it because it grounded itself so well at the start.

The montage is achingly real. Then, after grounding you, it increases the strange

I would agree with that assessment. The opening earned Up all its good will. And good will goes a long way. The flim basically got a free pass after that, and it is a little strange people are so hesitant to criticize the rest of it, which I would say, is the actual movie.

I love the talking dogs and I think the first five minutes lends transcendence to the entire movie.

I kinda thought it was more “I was just looking for a quiet night out and he recognized me.”

“It’ll open the right doors. Also some of the wrong doors. Like cat-flaps, for example. You can’t use a cat-flap, but it’ll open up anyway.”

They’re ideology is stupid, but they aren’t exactly getting the reference wrong. The red pill in The Matrix was always a symbol for the process of radicalization, on a literal level in the movie it’s the process of discovering that the machines control people and deciding to rebel against them, but the allegory can

It’s rudeness like this from you Democrats and other Leftists that made us Conservatives vote for President Trump, somehow!

“I feel kind of...invincible. Is it hot in here or is it just me?”

The reason this works and most other video game adaptations fail is that they keep with the game’s very simple premise - it’s Enter The Dragon with magic powers. That’s it.

Who bothers to check their own tweets for coherency? You just type some nonsense and let the cookies fall where they may.
