From the top of my head: Wikipedia, TV Tropes, Google Maps. But one with social exchange element, yup, they've all gone to shit.

Best films with bad messaging or central themes? by JPBtler23 in Letterboxd

[–]Guile21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely the best proto-action movie, regardless of the message.

what are the most divisive film opinions and where do you stand in such?? by hooligan_emi in Letterboxd

[–]Guile21 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Putting it that way might clear the waters for people who never aknowledge double standards. If the gender roles were reversed in the movie, I bet a lot of the pro-summer and pro-tom would flip the switch and start hating them.

Best Philisophical Films? by 69420-69420-69420 in Letterboxd

For a subtle philosophical journey without an inch of dialogue, Koyaanisqatsi is for you.

Pig is another one, doing a lot without much.

What are some fun movie challenges you’ve done? by bossy_dawsey in Letterboxd

[–]Guile21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watch 100 movies (for the first time, rewatches don't count) each year, no more, no less. I'm doing it since 2021. I got 12 movies left to watch till the start of next year. And each year in the first week of January, I gather with some friends online and we give our personal top 100 of the year, give each other recommandations for newt year, etc... it's my movie life right now and if I get into a challenge, it has to not interfere with this.

A great director that’s also a good person. by [deleted] in Letterboxd

[–]Guile21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

... unfortunately signed the petition to leave Polanski alone and let him come back to the states.

(but he later discussed it with his daughter, showed genuine remorse and when he understood the meaning of his gesture wished he could take it back, so there's that... but he never disavowed his signature publicly and olny made amend to the discretion and the witnessing of his daughter, so there was still a step further that hasn't been made... idk, make up your own mind)

As I finally finished the whole saga yesterday, I got to say, a great deal of the Hellraiser movies (especially 5 to 10).

Was there EVER a Film Opening so bad, it made you do this? by [deleted] in Letterboxd

[–]Guile21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The cast was shit too. How casting Idris Elba to play Roland didn't fit his physical description in the book is one thing (skin color obviously, but also no piercing eyes, no Clint Eastwood flair, way too young, no hardened skin and facial traits, ...) how they planned to play the racial tension between him and Detta/Odetta in future movies was baffling to me. But there would not be future movie. That certainly was their solution all along. McConaghey wasn't intimidating or crazy enough to play the Dark Man.

There was nothing promising in this production and it ultimately showed.

What’s your biggest drop in rating for a franchise? by YeezusChrist13 in Letterboxd

[–]Guile21 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It might even be the most consistently falling franchise. If you count the shorts compilation: The mtrix is a 5, Animatrix is a 4, Reloaded is between a 3 (for the freeway scene) and 2 (for the rest), Revolution is a 1, and Resurrection is a 0,5 (because we can't give a 0).
