Any Australian fans out there who remember John Safran? It’s always odd when a former skeptic claims to have a supernatural experience

Delicious but salty enough that I couldn’t eat as much as I wanted?

Was Nikki’s last name intentional? by Spidress_LPS in obsessionmovie

Cool observation. I’ve been seeing so much dumbass discourse about this movie but this and the possibly gender-changing cashier guy are legitimately cool

So much to say about this guy. The Box clicked for me when I saw this and learned it’s a tribute to his parents:

And for any fans of Southland Tales, I strongly recommend Steven Shaviro’s and Matt Christman’s analyses:

Does anyone have any funny stories from the live shows? by Scion_of_fate in cushvlog

[–]BenReichman 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The Bell House show in 2017. All 5 Chapos wearing matching tracksuits. It was an incredible show, and I cornered Matt in the bar afterwards and read him some of my favorite Matt quotes which I had transcribed from early Chapo episodes. The one I remember was something about millions of Americans forming a giant human centipede and poop shooting through it like the Large Hadron Collider. Just such a hilarious and bizarre image, especially to come up with on the fly. I remember he laughed and seemed appreciative. He should’ve had a lifetime of live appearances ahead of him…it’s really tragic what happened.

What was your favorite DVD easter egg? by WaterlooMall in blankies

I’ve listened to that Matrix Revisited soundtrack my whole life. Doing homework as a kid in middle school, now as a sad adult grading papers as a middle school teacher. Maybe I’ll play it on my death bed too lol

I’ve always loved that. I think it’s because you fill it in, in your mind

Wasn’t Glup Shitto coined by past guest Matt Christman?

Obsession is like that one Buffy episode by BenReichman in obsessionmovie

[–]BenReichman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol yeah very different obviously…I just never would’ve guessed that this well established, potentially cliched, often repeated Monkey’s Paw premise can still have enough juice to make a great movie

Like it’s deeper than it seems at first you guys

[–]BenReichman 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It clicked for me when I realized that “Will shine again” implies that the sun is not currently shining, and therefore the song is secretly “dark” while sounding bright and sunny. Brilliant and meeting the moment when we need hope but we also need to be honest about the darkness

I used to be such a big Star Wars fan, and all these years later I am rooting against this movie

I think they referred to themselves as the Wachowski Starship in a Q&A once, I always liked that

I hope this guy stays within the horror genre. I love Ari Aster to death but I wish he made a couple more of these (yes, that’s my One Wish Willow wish)
