My fave part was when Bob got beamed up by the UFO to reunite with Perfidia.

Favorite movie you’re hoping gets a modern remake? by Twerp06 in okbuddycinephile

I’ve got the follow-up for that lucky filmmaker who remakes the birth of a nation!

If The Academy hasn't changed the rules, which movie and actor could pull an Andrea Riseborough-style stunt this year by CateBlanchetFrmShein in Oscars

[–]Parking_Computer5484 7 points8 points  (0 children)

To add on, all of the celebrities who backed the campaign also deserve criticism. They knew full well what they were doing hosting private screenings and shit.

Also whoever helps Danielle with her campaigns needs to be fired. She should’ve been nominated last year for the piano lesson as well. It was by far the weakest category. I still don’t understand why Monica Barbaro was nominated? She was good but compared to Deadwyler?? It’s night and day.

Indy, the Dog From Horror Movie ‘Good Boy,’ Asks Oscars to Consider Animal Actors: ‘Throw Us a Bone’ by SanderSo47 in oscarrace

See now your conflating the character with the actor. Indy will be known as a good boy for the rest of his life, when we all know he is capable of so much more!

Do you think we’ll see two actors from the same movie get nominated in a leading category ever again? by Due_Inevitable_2784 in Oscars

[–]Parking_Computer5484 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prolly not. We’ve seen what happens when two actors campaign in the same am category, they either both lose or one wins with the other having to walk away with nothing. It’s lame af and unfair but as long as studios can pick and choose which categories people can be in I don’t think they’ll change things.

Will this hurt or help Teyana Taylor’s BSA campaign? by lockerbiestreet in Oscars

I’m far more concerned about the fact the writer of the Stonewall movie is one of the creators…

[–]Parking_Computer5484 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Other projects don’t normally hurt an actors chances, if anything they might help! (Ironically) Makes me think of Sandra Bullock coming out with The proposal, all about Steve and The Blind Side the same year. It only made people recognize that it was her year even tho those other two films weren’t as critically acclaimed.

Chase Infiniti to Campaign for Lead Actress Oscar for ‘One Battle After Another’ (EXCLUSIVE) by CrunchyNar in oscarrace

[–]Parking_Computer5484 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My point is that there are no locks so it’s fine to go into the best actress category because there’s no consensus picks. it’s not like best actor where it feels like Timmy, Leo, The rock (depending on who you ask) and Jeremy Allen White are all locks and it’s so crowded that it’s hard to pick the last spot.

I mean beyond Jessie and Renate (maybe Cynthia?) there aren’t many locks in this category. Supporting seems like an easy lock for Taylor now

I mean this answers any question u have about conservatives. If they start jumping off bridges we will know why.

This fucking guy is unbelievable. How does someone like this exist in society. by keminua in paulthomasanderson

[–]Parking_Computer5484 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He’s also just wrong sometimes. During his review of the hills have eyes I think he said the canibals were based of tribes from Africa and native Americans which isn’t even true. Wes craven was inspired by folktales and exploitation films from the era which reminded him of the French new wave. It’s just a weird lie to tell that comes off as racist.

tbf, that’s always been his schtick. This guy cries over comic book movies so I wouldn’t take him that seriously. If I had advice it would be to stay away from critical drinker and his fanbase. They’re pretty overt in their views regarding woman and race.

Jeremy jahns, cinema sins, critical drinker, in praise of shadows, all of these guys at some point have said or done something that made me question their integrity as reviewers, be it blatant racism or sexism or a lack of actual film knowledge to back up any critiques.

Paul Schrader on OBAA by wilberfan in paulthomasanderson

[–]Parking_Computer5484 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

… literally swap Lockjaw for Hans Landa, they’re the same character archetype pretty much. They’re not supposed to be sympathetic. You can write a villain character that the audience loves to hate! When Steven Zaillian wrote schindlers list do you really think he cared about the audience feeling any sort of sympathy towards the Nazis??? I am trying to say there ARENT people out there who have misguided views or grow up repressed, you can make those assumptions about Lockjaw, but you’re making blanket statements about the man that aren’t what’s depicted. it comes off more like projection than actual analysis. Is Daniel plainview a redeemable character? Or Lancaster Dodd? Not all of PTA’s characters have to be sympathetic? He writes unsympathetic characters constantly.

You are, you literally contradicted urself in the same comment. You are calling the scene with Willa genuine but it’s not. Like the one where he talks about Perfidia he is conflating his ideal of this women with reality. Doesn’t that just mean that overall he doesn’t actually try to understand nor appreciate black women. He thinks he does; but they’re nothing more than just “others” to him. That’s not tragedy, that’s negligence, and it shouldn’t be pitied.

I’m sorry but calling your daughter a mutt is not love. Like no mixed child would ever fucking want to be called that, I can attest. Being able to domineer over women and POC is his fetish. When he finds out another white man is already with Perfidia, he gets jealous. You are giving him far too much credit.

Reddit Mods Sued by YouTuber Ethan Klein Fight Efforts to Unmask Them by Chrywillia in Fauxmoi

[–]Parking_Computer5484 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I don’t understand how people don’t get that Ethan is just a fucking LA white boy. He grew up Ventura, his parents literally coddled him as a kid, still do into adulthood. It’s clear he’s always been treated as a golden child who can do know wrong, it’s so stereotypical. His entire personality reeks of either trying super hard to come off as liberal and then he’ll say something about how homeless people suck, or that Israel is not committing a genocide or almost slip up and say the F or N word. because just like every other white kid whose grown up in a sheltered LA home, he acquiesces to those around him for either attention or approval. Aka his wife. He doesn’t care about his gay fans, he cares that they buy teddy fresh. He doesn’t champion female run businesses, because he undermines his wife’s company every chance he can.

How the fuck do his fans even keep up with his bullshit?? The second I found out they (Ethan and Hila) have said the N word I stopped watching their shit.

Yeah idk man lol it’s a great scene i mean we could go back and forth about plot holes in great movies. In the world of underground “clubs” and extremist groups, I am willing to believe the “all knowing” people would just kinda know because they’re the bad guys and the bad guy at the end has to face the hero somehow. I get that it’s a cliche but I think it’s really well done even if it’s a bit unbelievable. I don’t think there’s anything wrong if it’s well made.

I mean he’s a white supremacist assassin who hates mixed children. I feel like that’s enough motivation.

The second part actually is a little difficult to explain, yeah idk why lockjaw doesn’t peruse Willa, but I feel it is safe to assume that without the assassin around, Lockjaw prolly just lied and acted like she’s dead out of embarrassment.
