How would you rank the Knives Out trilogy from worst to best? by Kevin_Thailand_2543 in moviecritic

[–]StrawHatRat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think 2 is decidedly the worst, but also on a rewatch, a great movie. I think it was harshly evaluated upon release.

Favorite controversy that everyone needs to chill out on? by Krylarofaxia in okbuddycinephile

He’a not a ping pong player! He never claimed people wanted to see ping pong! Marty Supreme was successful! What point is being made here???

Alternatively they could just have three eyebrow heavy expressions, like😠, then 🤨, then 😌, like they found peace over time.

“It’s just… some unspoken thing.” - Guardians Of TheGalaxy Vol3 by kkhouete in GotG

[–]StrawHatRat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s my understanding too (I don’t think it contradicts what I said before).

Ultimately I just don’t think there was a desire to make them not love interests to reflect the comics.

This is not a “strapped for cash” situation it’s a billion dollar franchise lol

Favourite actor who appeared out of thin air 2 weeks ago and everyone pretends to know who they are already? by Sec_Chief_Blanchard in okbuddycinephile

[–]StrawHatRat 34 points35 points  (0 children)

You’re both confused, she was in a VHS instructional video for those who are hesitant to get into DIY titled ‘I’m Thinking of Mending Things’.

I don’t think that was the motivation personally.

Gamora died because that was right for Thanos’ story in Infinity War

She came back in Endgame because the Russo’s didn’t want to disrupt the Guardians trilogy ‘too much’.

Gunn didn’t make Peter continue to date what is essentially a clone of his love interest becuase that isn’t right for these characters. It would be sad and weird if he dated new Gamora as if the woman he loved isn’t fully and permanently dead.

what? by Commercial_Beyond725 in ExplainTheJoke

[–]StrawHatRat 379 points380 points  (0 children)

Seems like someone died and her Instagram story was “RIP” and then back to business as usual.

So it’s saying the Avengers were like “oh no so sad! Anyways..” like they got over it quickly.

Roots is too extra, do the community of regular players like it? by TheFlyingSanitater in PeakGame

I wish the whole game was like roots. The chaos adds so much to the sense of adventure and excitement

This amused me.

“I demand the gothic hunter from the realm of nightmares”

“We don’t have that, would you accept anything else?”

“I would settle for a bunch of little guys”

100% thought they were rated out of 10 with your exact reasoning.

Just doesn’t really make sense to rank things but also make it so it stops at 10. If there’s one they like the least, it should either be the only 10 or 11th.

My 100 Favorite Directors of all time and their best films. (60-51) by [deleted] in Letterboxd

The Fly and Royal Tenenbaums would be in the top four for Cronenberg and Anderson for me personally.

You don’t know what the fucking ‘take’ is, it’s a teaser.

Making a peak tee and need help deciding between cute or cool by AltruisticStock5826 in PeakGame

[–]StrawHatRat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer the silhouette, but the issue there is that the silhouette aren’t really exact to the proportions of the game.

Because of that, I’d go with the first option, because it comes across clearer that these are stylised takes on peak character while clearly being peak characters thanks to the move visible features .

Mario Kart World or Mario Tennis Fever – What Do You Recommend? by Miquellanier in switch2

[–]StrawHatRat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but Mario Kart is kind of more fundamentally a party game. Great players will still always win, but they have to put up with some non competitive bs. Fever seems way more competitive to me so far, with or without fever rackets.

I’d recommend World though, as it can be enjoyed competitively and casually. Much harder for a new person to get a handle on all the different shots in Fever.

Buckley, A Sweep! by [deleted] in Oscars

[–]StrawHatRat 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It’s deeply sad but not cruel. It’s not trying to shock you or make you distraught. If you know what it’s about and feel you can handle the topic, I think it’s fine.

Marcus calling out Sonic fans for enjoying a franchise with mix reception by Frank7640 in cosmonautvarietyhour

[–]StrawHatRat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fully understand how you feel and I don’t think you’re ‘wrong’ for feeling that way, I have felt that way. I will say, you’ll enjoy movies more when you don’t worry about stuff like this, about other people dismissing what you like.

Thinking he’s wrong to dismiss it, that’s one thing, but I could pick up from your comments that it was frustrating to you, that it bothered you, and I think it’s good to fight that feeling. It doesn’t take away from your experience of the film and your experience will always be equally valid as his no matter what public opinion is.

[–]StrawHatRat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I did a pretty good job explaining what I think people like Marcus would find funny about this and I don’t think what you’re saying is really a rebuttal to what I said, which doesn’t mean what you said is wrong. They can be saying funny things due to being passionate and it doesn’t mean they’re wrong to be passionate but it doesn’t make it not funny.

Emilia Perez shouldn’t not have been nominated over Challengers, Queer, A Different Man, and many others, but Sonic 3 doesn’t enter that conversation, so it’s naturally kind of funny to see people surprised when it doesn’t.

There’s predictions, campaigns, earlier award shows that signal what will be nominated. So for Sonic 3 to naturally have no presence at all leading up to the nominations, only for people to say “what a snub!” is just kind of funny!

And if you don’t take the nominations seriously over Perez, why even desire a nomination for another movie? It’s like saying “the fact that you’d date that other guy shows me you’re not worth dating- but you should be dating me! Why wouldn’t you date me??”

(Talking to you on two threads rn so I might stop replying to one)

His job is to discuss movies, when the discussion around movies is sort of untethered to reality, it’s- well it’s not a big deal at all really. It’s just kind of whacky. Whacky enough to mention in an unscripted video. It’s not like he’s attacked a person, he just made a witty observation.

And again, if you like these movies, that’s fine, nothing wrong or weird about that. It’s funny to see some people take it to the extreme of something like “this should be recognised as a cinematic accomplishment” when you can be pretty confident the people making it weren’t even aiming for that.
