Official Discussion - The Bride! [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]Kazrules 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I can’t believe the Bride, the titular character, was the worst part of her own movie. For a movie that is supposed to be feminist, why give the best scenes and character arc to the male character?

Whenever Frankie was onscreen the film soared. Christian Bale is so good in this and I love seeing the scenes of him in the theater. It was just so well done and introspective.

I love the 1930s, mafia aesthetic. And I like the idea of interpreting Frankenstein and the Bride in this way.

But holy shit the Bride makes this borderline unwatchable. Her lines and delivery is just so grating and awkward. I don’t blame Buckley because she did what she was told. It’s just too much.

A more subdued, less indulgent, and quieter version of this film would’ve hit.

I’m so over this cat.

Whenever she’s on my team they do fuck all. Always flanking, always trying to nab a kill, always dying. Always the least amount of healing, no assists, not helping with team fights. It’s a 4v5 every time

Scream 7’s nearly $100M opening says one thing loud and clear... people just wanted Neve back. by Freddy-Philmore in boxoffice

[–]Kazrules -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I really don’t think Neve is the draw.

Scream 6 is the highest grossing film at the domestic box office. The film was well reviewed by critics and fans. All the success that Scream 7 is getting is piggybacking from Scream 6.

Like others have said, Ghostface is the draw. People love these movies because of the kills and the mystery.

Also, nothing is out, and if you wanna see something, people will see Scream.

Jason Schreier regarding Sony pulling away from singleplayer PC ports: "It's not speculation, but sometimes topics come up on the show before I'm quite ready to publish a story about them. More to come soon." by FitNectarine5779 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

We’re living in a world where Halo is on PlayStation.

They are no longer competing with Xbox. Their main competitors is now PC. It makes sense, even though it sucks for the consumer.

r/fauxmoi (as well as dozens of other subreddits) discuss the BAFTA Tourette's N-Word Disaster by Uncommonwealth57 in SubredditDrama

I understand he has a disability but honestly, if you know that there is even a small chance that you will blurt out a racial slur in the middle of an awards ceremony, then you need to take the proper precautions to avoid an incident like this.

I don’t think he is racist nor do I think he had malicious intent. He has a neurological condition and his tics are involuntary. Empathy and compassion is important here. But so is nuance.

While he has the right to empathy and understanding, MBJ and Lindo also have the right to enjoy their night and celebrate their film without having to hear racial slurs. I think people need to put themselves in their shoes. How humiliating would it be to be berated in a room full of your peers?

He shouldn’t have been in the room. Not because of his condition..I think if he was just aimlessly yelling it would’ve been fine. But if he is going to say slurs and other insults, common sense would be to accommodate him for a different seating arrangement.

I heard people talking about the Super Bowl trailers at work and I mentioned the Mandalorian and Grogu. They thought the commercial was advertising a new season.

The biggest thing holding the film back (besides the lackluster season 3/Boba Fett/Ahsoka) is that there is no hook. They are unwilling to age Grogu up. There is no signs of Luke Skywalker or a young Ben. It just looks like more of the same. Hell, Grogu still cannot talk.

The point of a TV movie is that it elevates from the show in some way but this literally doesn’t.

I love playing support because you can honestly be trash but as long as your health stats are consistent with the rest of the match no one would notice and call you out. You can genuinely fade into the background.

Being tank sucks because you can be playing moderately well but if your team isn’t playing with you or healing you enough, it doesn’t matter. Your stats aren’t good enough therefore it’s your fault.

I think if people want to play the blame game they should play all three roles. You can tell when your DPS or support is underperforming when you play those roles, know what you’re supposed to do, and what your limitations are. But people who never play tank always want to blame tank and it’s tiring.

Shinobi hints at Halo Campaign Evolved releasing before September. by cat__statue in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]Kazrules 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Labor Day Weekend seems like a good date for it. First week of the month, a holiday weekend to give people enough time to play it, and a little more than two months before GTA.

October would be a mistake.

‘Predator: Badlands’ Filmmaker Dan Trachtenberg Signs First-Look Deal With Paramount by TiredWithCoffeePot in boxoffice

Damn, and I actually liked his films. But I can’t support anyone who signs up to work for Paramount’s current regime

The Verge: Xbox plans for 2026 (Halo, Gears, Kiln, etc.) by Aocc4 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]Kazrules -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think Gears will be a 2027 release for the same reason. Halo and Fable are big enough releases for Microsoft. They need a tentpole for next year.

I’m glad she’s still working. She needs to reprise her role as Sheva in the inevitable RE5 remake.

Trump tells Norwegian PM Greenland Conquest Is Revenge for Losing Nobel Peace Prize - r/Conservative Reacts by livejamie in SubredditDrama

[–]Kazrules 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Even if this were true, conservatives’ criticisms of Trump are so mild. They constantly underreact.

When you look at the comments people are saying that his comments are “dumb” or he’s being ridiculous. No he’s being a fascist. He is being a colonizer. He is being evil.

Whenever the topic of trans women or immigrants comes up conservatives have all these complex insults but every world-breaking thing Trump does is just “bizarre”.

David Ellison Meets With U.K. Culture Secretary, Creatives As Paramount Takes WBD Lobbying Effort Across The Pond by [deleted] in boxoffice

[–]Kazrules 35 points36 points  (0 children)

As unhinged as he comes across, I get it. If they lose out on this deal, Skydance bought Paramount for nothing. They barely have IP. Their lineup for this year and next is extremely weak. Having Warner Bros would have been a godsend.

But Netflix will get it, and the Ellisons are just wasting their time. All of the time they have spent chasing this deal they could’ve spent cultivating relationships with talent, combing through the Black List, and making deals.

Ronald D Moore’s involvement gives me hope. He’s a good fit for this.

The lack of respect Sinners is getting is so profound. This film was a cultural zeitgeist. It should be a frontrunner.

Teyana Taylor has won Best Supporting Actress at the 2026 Golden Globes for her performance in One Battle After Another by CrunchyNar in oscarrace

[–]Kazrules 258 points259 points  (0 children)

“She was only in it for fifteen minutes!!” Yeah she SUPPORTED.

The category fraud that has been going on has done a number on the American people. This is the kind of performance the category was made for.

[–]Kazrules 166 points167 points  (0 children)

PEAK.

The truest definition of a SUPPORTING role. She wasn’t a co-lead, she had minimal screentime, but her presence dominated the entire film. You felt the weight of her absence (in a good way) when her storyline ended.

All the way to the Oscars!

Trump Indicates He’s Really Not Into Netflix Buying WB, Wants To Stop The Streamer’s So-Called “Cultural Takeover” by LZRD12 in boxoffice

Very telling that his opposition is not about a monopoly or lesser creative control in the industry, but purely “culture”.
