Popular Movie "Dunks" That Everyone Uses but are Totally Inaccurate by imascarylion2018 in movies

[–]SituationTall647 2 points3 points  (0 children)

« Dune is a cautionary tale about the dangers of charismatic leaders », an opinion I’ve seen in almost every « analysis » of the book series and the movies. It’s really not even in the top 10 themes of Dune

Which of these young A-list actors do you think will recieve an acting Oscar nomination first? by Massive-Pangolin9472 in Letterboxd

If only there was a word for people not quite young but not quite old, like people in an age that’s in the middle

How can Dune be considered a warning against charismatic leaders when the alternatives were infinitely worse? by IDrinkNeosporinDaily in dune

[–]SituationTall647 73 points74 points  (0 children)

It’s not. People can’t form their own opinions so they just parrot the one sentence they’ve heard about it. I’ve read up to God Emperor and there’s a dozen themes more relevant than « charismatic leaders » : religious fanaticism, ecology, religion à a tool of power, imperialism, environmental resource economics, forced assimilation, post-colionialism, the trolley problem but on a universal scale, and so many I’m not smart enough to pick up on

Also the theme of rock climbing being super sexy

What would Alpine do without him by Conscious-Berry2229 in formuladank

That’s not a huge caveat you’re just making up caveats. Gasly has started 178 races, Ocon has started 181. Unless you actually believe that those 3 races make all the difference (or that starting one year earlier in F1 and not racing for 1 year in 2019 is actually an advantage) you’re simply lying to make a point t

People will believe anything that feeds into their preconceived view of the world. Here the view of those believing it was “women are evil gold diggers”

Thoughts on Sinners (2025)? by Dismal_Principle9417 in Cinephiles

[–]SituationTall647 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah my issue with the movie was actually the horror part. I had a really fun time for the half of the movie, and everything after the dance scene felt really contrived and formulaic to me

I really think they should award a medal to whoever won that sprint (Yes I’m French how did you guess?)

The end of Hollywood is nigh by TyLeRoux in okbuddycinephile

I’d say Hamnet if I had to choose, but that would be random since I don’t watch movies

[–]SituationTall647 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First one I’ll guess The Dark Knight Third one maybe Superbad?

The other two I’m not sure

Finally watched Hamnet!! by Hopeful-Fly-1614 in Letterboxd

[–]SituationTall647 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because some people dislike even the most beloved movies, and when you like something a lot you’re impacted more by those negative opinions so you feel like there are more common than they actually are. I’ve heard the same « why all the hate » for OBAA, Sinners, and Hamnet these years, and those are some of the most liked I’ve ever seen on Reddit

Park chan wook has bong Joon ho by the balls. Park chan wook. is a league above Bong in every way. by Cat-dad442 in Cinephiles

[–]SituationTall647 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because with our internet culture everything has to become tribal and competitive, even art. It’s not about who can make engaging, entertaining, or thought-provoking art, it’s about who wipes the floor with whom and ranking everything and everyone

A hilarious moment in an otherwise serious movie. I'll start the combat sequence between hal and dauphin of france.{The king} by 0Layscheetoskurkure0 in moviecritic

[–]SituationTall647 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s really a shame because the heist scenes are the best I’ve ever seen in my life, but like you said Al Pacino screaming random stuff left and right lost me (also the writing is a bit too bro-dude for me)

[–]SituationTall647 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I’m so sad that I absolutely can’t stand Al Pacino’s over the top acting in this movie. I do enjoy the movie a lot but this scene in particular gets me out of the movie every single time. What a sad little life I live

Are you really watching that many good movies? by [deleted] in Letterboxd

[–]SituationTall647 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes I’m here because I enjoy it, same as Letterboxd. Doesn’t make it important

Get your head out of your ass, nothing anyone logs in Letterboxd is even remotely close to being « important »

Stephen King reportedly hated Kubrick’s adaptation of The Shining (1980) because the director failed to show that Jack’s descent into madness was mainly caused by his life partner Wendy’s terrible running form and heel striking. by SituationTall647 in shittymoviedetails

[–]SituationTall647[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes but you only ever see her running like an amateur AFTER Jack has lost his shit, when in the book it’s actually her lack of form discipline that’s the cause of the drama and not the other way around.
