I'll be honest, a lot of fiction, even good stuff that I really like don't have that strong of an emotional effect on me these days, but I left The Lighthouse feeling fucken' electrified.

that Pick post is actually pretty cogent? she's basically just arguing the success of a film can be measured by the intelligibility of its themes. that's not unfair

the only baffling thing is that it's about The Lighthouse

but
like, I hated No Country the first time I saw it
I'm not a perfect brilliant movie understander, sometimes I just don't get something
it took for me to read other people's insightful, thoughtful explications on its themes in order to appreciate what the movie was doing and what other people were getting out of it
I'm guessing you didn't call them retarded sheep for it tho.

Knives Out was pretty good, but I was surprised at how little of the cast was in it. The trailers made it seem like a big ensemble like Clue, but then 90% of the movie was Ana de Armas, Chris Evans, and Daniel Craig.

Wasn't there a very early trailer that focused on the right-wing troll nephew character? Kid had like 2 minutes of screen time.

Every sequel is going to be Daniel Craig saving another perfect flawless hardworking minority woman and white liberals will pat themselves on the back for how much service they just did for minorities by going to see it.

I was shocked that there wasn't a twist ending that Ana de Armas had set it all up herself and she'd been faking that vomiting thing.

Maybe it would have been too obvious. It seemed to be driving toward that the whole movie and then nope.

I haven't seen the movie but reading the plot online made it sound real cringey and overly "now." The last scene sounds like some real #resistance poo poo.

It's a very cliche genre movie. People like it because there hasn't been a movie in this genre for a while. I forgot 85% of the plot when I walked out of the screen.

What's the best media player to watch either of the Star Wars 4k versions? I've got them now and upon checking them out, VLC seems to do a pretty poor job. It's buffering alot, it gets choppy and all that. Plain having trouble processing all the data it seems. If it's of any interest I haven't updated VLC in a while.

MPC-HQ or MPV should do a better job than VLC.

Thank you, that does seem to work alot better. I really look forwards to watching- Though really I should look at hooking my computer up to a projector or at least a big TV for this. Watching it on a relatively small monitor is a bit pointless.


PC. But see above.

Re: Knives Out I did find it a bit obvious how the movie kept hammering you over the head with the “but I was outvoted” and messing up her country of origin. But on the other hand it was a bit clever because mysteries get your antenna up for anything telling in the dialog.

I was wondering whether there was some special significance to the baseball but in the end it seemed it was just a favourite collectable of the old man’s.

Knives out was pretty good. It was a pretty good homage to Sleuth and other mystery movies of that ilk.
