I really loved 1917, its extremely well made. The camera is definitely the shining part of it, like GOW it elevates the whole thing.

So I watched, I guess half, of Wonder Woman. Not the new one. It was so boring. Even that last fight with Ares was so bleh. Why was it so praised? I mean, Chris Pine is acting gold, but everything else was so... bland. Even Gal Gadot was off. She played a better Wonder Woman in that hack job of a movie that Whedon put together called Justice League. Was there some amazing movie from when they leave the island to when she fights on the battlefield?

I'm on an Alien binge. I've watched Alien, Aliens, and Alien 3 Extended so far.

I'd definitely say the first one is my favorite. Still need to watch Alien Resurrection (haven't seen it) and I might watch the AVPs (have seen them).

Saw Raya and the last dragon and was blown away! Audiovisual feast and a decent plot imo

I'm looking forward to watching this, I love Disney animations

Also, I really liked the badass female characters. Seemed unusual for a Disney film (lots of female characters but usually princesses etc)

nnodley · Mar 07, 2021, 11:21 PM

Yeah i really like Tenet. Those are the type of movies i think Christopher Nolan is best at. Interstellar and tenet are both great.

I really like tenet as well. the reverse time machine was a pretty cool take on time travel.

I don't have anything in particular to complain about but I did feel like the idea wasn't as fully realized as inception was. still a great idea with some pretty awesome fight/action scences as a result of the premise.

a sign of the times. no one wants to see a damsel in distress type movie anymore.

personally I'm a bit disappointed that so much of "equality" is making women be agressive, violent, and independent. it is basically writing the role for a man and casting a women. I genuinely think the quote "femine" qualities deserve to be idolized more: kindness, empathy, community, ect.

I suppose that doesn't make for as entertaining of a movie though.

I hated tenet. Well, didnt hate it. But its bellow meh

Raya was great. Had dumb baby humor but I'd recomend it. No spoilers Kitler, but watch it. Plot was original.

Tenet was also great. I liked it less on my second viewing but I still love it.
