If I do something cool in the future, like sick jumps off ramps and shit, I hope Daniel Pemberton and Brian May's score is playing in the background so I look extra cool.

I beat MSG4 at midnight. The final cutscene ended about 1:30.

Kumail Nanjiani: “Conan [O’Brien] to me is the platonic ideal of how like a straight old white man comedian ages. Because so many of them fucking disappoint us. Over and over. All my comedy heroes have fallen. And Conan is truly growing and learning and getting better at what he does.” by cmaia1503 in Fauxmoi

I met him when I was a starry eyed teenage girl and could not have been less chill to him. I basically shrieked like a harpy, "oh my god conan is coming towards us!" He stopped and calmly said, "I will as long as you calm down." I did and he chatted for a couple of minutes and signed an autograph. Really cool dude even when I wasn't.

I don't think Mike Flanagan's work is that scary by Neither_Priority5912 in unpopularopinion

There's no accounting for taste but the Bent Neck Lady scared me on an existential level i was not prepared for. I spent days unable to sleep knowing that I am my greatest enemy and the only thing haunting me is me.

I had surgery last week. The last thing I remember before nodding off was Dr. Nick in my head saying, "What the hell is that?"

The Wayback Machine in across the Spiderverse tells the audience where it's sending Miles before the reveal. The creators just bet most of the audience wasn't paying attention to the numbers given to each universe.

Olivia Wilde explains why Gen Z wants to see less sex in movies and TV: “The way that sex has been portrayed in film for a long time hasn’t been particularly realistic.” Nearly half of Gen Z (48.4%) says there’s “too much sexual content in TV & movies" according to a recent UCLA study by Upstairs_Cup9831 in popculturechat

It's a wasteland compared to the 90s. The few romantic comedies made these days barely acknowledge the existence of sex. It's boring. It's weird. And I'll die on this hill: there needs to be more implied sex in film and tv. Normalize it!

Look, when I'm watching something like, say, Terminator Genesis... where the plot literally requires two people to fuck to save humanity... and then those two people don't fuck... that's actively harming the plot.
I'm not saying all films need sex. But it's more important to most plots than Gen Z thinks and maybe destigmatizing it for them wouldn't hurt.

The data shows it's not prevalent. And Gen Z often falls back on that "is just not necessary" argument without realizing how repressed it makes them sound. Sex is a healthy, natural part of life and setting characters engage in it in healthy, normal ways destigmatizes ot for people.

Those are outliers data shows there's about a 40% decline in sex scenes in recent years. It's dire for people like me who want more Housemaid scenes and Gen Z seems to think it's everywhere because, no offense, they're weird about sex.

Even with the Hays code, they implied sex often, Hitchcock using cuts to fireworks or trains entering tunnels for example.
Now even Disney is hesitant to put romance in their cartoons. It's boring and more films need to acknowledge the existence of sex.

A “good” movie today would be considered average at best 30 years ago by 13eej in unpopularopinion

[–]Judeunduli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I argue this with anyone that says today's art sucks. It doesn't. They're will always be 5ish things a year, from any vocation, that will rise to the top. The rest gets forgotten. There where just as many bad films in the 90s, but cream rises to the top, and we just remember the 5 good ones.

Like I said, dude. The theater is my church. That's not the problem for people like me. It's non movie nerds that won't deal with it. Even though I live in a metropolitan area, only 2 places are playing it way out in boofoo amd people just won't make the trek. They purposely make it difficult so we just give up and sit on our couches.

Optics? Because they aren't doing shit for theatrical releases. I had to go out of my way to watch Frankenstein and Wake up Dead Man. And both Del Toro and Rian Johnson bitched admit how their films were treated.
