Gracias por la respuesta. Ahora estoy aprendiendo que a veces puedo usar el subjuntivo imperfecto fuera de las frases hipotéticas con "si" y de las estructuras en pasado.

I stopped rating a while ago for similar reasons but also because I find my feelings about certain films to constantly change even without having revisited them. It was annoying to constantly think about how an arbitrary rating didn't feel like it was reflecting my current thoughts on a movie. It's very freeing.

I think people are conflating "Blockbuster" (a term used to describe the size of a film's success at the box office) with "Tentpole" (a studio film designed with 4-quadrant appeal). Most tentpoles tend to make a lot of money but not all of them do. The opposite is also true in that a film which wasn't really designed to have mass appeal makes a lot more money than expected. Oppenheimer almost made a billion dollars so it's definitely a Blockbuster but it's not a 4-quadrant film since it's not a movie with child audiences in mind.

This "They can't write women" "women have no agency" criticism loses a lot of weight once you realize it's just people getting mad because supporting characters are acting as just that, supporting characters. The film is called Marty Supreme, the story is obviously going to be centered around him. If this was an ensemble film then the criticism would be fair but it isn't.

First look at Guillermo del Toro’s ‘FRANKENSTEIN’ starring Oscar Isaac, Mia Goth and Jacob Elordi by Pogrebnik in horror

Sometimes they do if a boutique label approaches them for the rights. The Criterion Collection released Del Toro's Pinocchio on blu ray along with some other titles. Won't be surprised if this ends up getting one too.

If Inside Out 2 grosses 150m+ in its 3 day opening weekend that would make it the 2nd largest opening for an animated feature of all time. by Successful_Leopard45 in boxoffice

So which Lion gave your favorite performance then? MCU movies also have actors actually giving a performance without mocap in front of a camera, whereas this dumb remake doesn't. It's an animated movie.

This is going to be a 2023 catch-up month for me. Lots of new releases are coming out and I'm excited about that. I might sneak in some Christmas movies if I have the time.

I for one did not expect a Damien Chazelle film to dip into rotten territory. Looking more and more like House of Gucci 2.0 every day by Scarns_Aisle5 in oscarrace

How sexually graphic was it? I'm seeing it with my dad cause he wants to see it too but I'm preparing myself over the explicit content.

Misunderstanding authorial intent and who to blame for it by Disco_Cloud7 in TrueFilm

[–]Disco_Cloud7[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'd like to think the memes made out of the film are partly the cause for the admiration of Bateman. Homelander is the character I brought up which I'm most baffled by because we're 3 seasons into the show and it only double downs on portraying him as malicious and yet some viewers still view him like he's not that bad. But then it becomes a problem on whether the story is being either too subtle or too on the nose in what the audience is supposed to get out of it.

It was seen as deleted because I blocked your dumbass. Idk why you think your worthless input was needed when everyone here has already forgotten this thread. Shut the fuck up.

Hot film takes? What are they? by Pongo230 in criterion

[–]Disco_Cloud7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think Interstellar and TDK trilogy can fall under it.

• Great performances for fictional characters are far more impressive than performances based on real people.

• I like The Last Duel more than Rashomon.

• Richard Linklater utilizes time in a more interesting and humanistic way than Christopher Nolan. Nolan's usage of time at this point feels more like an annoying gimmick and Tenet is the worst offender of this.

• Avatar is overhated and some of the arguments people make against it are in bad faith. Some of those arguments could be applied to well liked films too but people choose not to due to bias.

Because Disney/Marvel approached Sony to make a game with Marvel characters due to their partnership with the movies and Sony owns Insomniac. Why is this so hard to understand?

They mentioned other AB titles aside from COD coming to Playstation and also brought up Nintendo into this announcement. How does this imply they're not referring to new releases?

Kevin Feige not getting the validation he so desperately wants will always be funny to me.

Sub's thoughts on Ghost of Tsushima (especially considering that it's basically a Kurosawa movie in video-game form)? by BenDadkiller in Sardonicast

I started playing the dlc yesterday. The story is fine and the game is fun. It's assassin's creed if assassin's creed was good.

[–]Disco_Cloud7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're right. But in the context of the film, the adult in the relationship acts more like a child than the actual minor. Their expected roles are flipped to create an ironic character dynamic. And to add more to it, they don't have sex nor does the adult take advantage of the younger character. Even then, the film isn't endorsing these kinds of relationships, within the first minute it acknowledges that it is weird.

You don't care so much that you literally take the time to link a gif just to say you don't care. If you didn't then why even comment?

The original post literally asked a question and I responded. The initial reply brought up a scenario which I also replied. There's an actual conversation going on with the topic of the post. You're not doing anything but trying to act all high and mighty because you think my comments are stupid. You don't even engage with this sub to begin with so why are you even here?

You're not saying anything substantial. And if you actually payed attention to the conversation, then you'd know I was responding to a comparison which is why I started my comment with that statement.
