It's like tommy wiseau rewrote primer but he changed time travel to dreams
what a story mark
[spoilers]
Just finished watching Blade Runner 2049, and am now reading the wiki on it, and am *now* blown away that some cunt still managed to find the film 'eye-gougingly sexist' considering the ***entire anchor of the plot*** is focused around the female being the saviour of the entire fucking species of replicants. The biggest plot twist of the film is that the male protagonist of the film *isn't* the saviour, but just another replicant with the memories of the *real* saviour implanted within him
Not only that, but Gosling's digital girlfriend has more character development that nearly any other in the film (and the 'sex scene' was remarkably powerful), the main antagonist is female, the boss of the protagonist is female, and the main characters in the replicant rebellion are all female - and I'm saying this not as a counter-critique of the film as being 'too female' or 'too female-empowerment', simply as matter-of-fact. What a time to be living in, where a movie centered around the propogation of species, and the power of the mother, appear to be considered fucking *mysoginist*

You know how there's that annoying trend where the villain in movies explains his entire plan for no reason?
That is the entirety of inception
Yeah
I hate that
except punchlines
Well not just punchlines
What they could show with five seconds of screentime, they take four scenes to explain
It's to explain to plot to the viewr
i haven't seen the new blade runner, i should get on that
and it's horrible
In q very lazy way
*very lazy*?
*VERY LAZY?*
YOU MEAN THE MOVIE WAS MADE FOR THE AUDIENCE OF DORA THE FUCKING EXPLORER
It's lazy because it's easy
It's bad.
Dredd was amazing
Yeah
very bad
I love nolan's older movies so much, man
I already commented on Dredd here a few days back, but I'll add to that by saying how nice it was that the film, despite being life-and-death for the characters in the film, wasn't a 'save the world' epic either
The writing and characters are amazing
and he does it all without needing to explain shite
Kinda why I liked John Wick but was left with a bad aftertaste regarding the sequel
Should I watch the john wick movies?
yes
first one is top stuff
Yes.
All right!
Right after I finish watching friends
second one is a good film, but the longer it goes on the more it seems to be setting up for yet-another-comic-book-universe-where-everything-must-be-epic
first one is just very good, gritty, arthouse-noir action
The first was very very good, second one was decent but I agree too much setup for a sequel
again, noone is saving the world or anything
Hey guys, what is your favourite marvel series?
