i was also gonna drop out of game of thrones after s7 cause it felt increasingly haphazard and wheel-spinning, but then they said s8 was the last one so i stuck it out for closure

I've never been a huge Tarantino fan but I put Once upon a time in Hollywood on as a random pick and enjoyed it a lot - I though Pitt and Dicaprio were both absolutely at the top of their game, and the slow-paced meandering light plot working up to that ending felt like 'real cinema' should, something I can't say for almost all the movies I have watched of late.

Lotta dirty bare ladies feet here though, not sure if anyone noticed.

it was a weird movie. excellent performances, and some great scenes, but it didnt cohere at all for me

i guess i should spoil this so

it builds up to the manson murders, but they are averted by a badass macho stuntman tripping balls who saves the day while sharon tate is oblivious eye-candy.

like, its a weird alt-history take in a bad way as opposed to inglorious basterds where its jews and women and a black dude who kill hitler

i remember thinking as it was ending that "oh now comes the denouement where it turns out that polanski doesnt become a pedophile rapist because his wife is still alive"

yeah the driving scenes were almost the most indulgent part lol. i have a real low tolerance for "hollywood mythology" type movies. everything i hear about Mank is good, Oldman and Fincher are extremely good, but it doesn't pique me in the least.

also ya the ending, it definitely felt to me like something was missing. some kind of thematic bow on its lack of historicity. it just explodes and then you wait for the punchline but there isn't any, which if that were the punchline, it could be done way better

in true detective it's a framing device to tell it in flashback not a whole thing where they intentionally confuse the audience leading up to some big reveal about it

Memento is the only one where the stupid gimmicky structure even remotely contributes to the movie in a positive way. It's honestly also one of the few cases where a twist ending is actually good and thought provoking.

id say memento is the one where the structure isnt a stupid gimmick

its a very bad film if you watch the scenes in chronological order

i wish it was confusing

i would probably like it a lot more if it was edited down to like 90 mins. all that runtime gives you too much time to wonder about the concepts and the plot, and the spectacle as is isnt enough
