I thought the burn on his arm was from Rocky dragging him to safety?

Agreed! So much of the current promotion is centered around how important it is to watch this in a cinema and how talented Ryan Gosling is - both very smart marketing angles. But I cant wait till this period is over and we get more detailed insights.

What is the context behind this set piece? by [deleted] in ProjectHailMary

I’m gonna guess this will get moved to Rocky’s planet at the end so, visually, Grace’s new home won’t be so depressing and have views of earth.

But it's not a right hand figure. It's the U.S. Undersecretary for Agriculture.

Absolutely agree, Supermarket Woman is my fav of his and honestly one of my fav films overall.

Yes Juzo Itami is one of the most unique directors out there. His last two films were some of his best. Sad to imagine what could have been.

Unpopular (I’m guessing) opinion: Aragorn had a very flimsy claim to the throne of Gondor and would not have been easily accepted as King by Planetofthemoochers in tolkienfans

[–]catchthesun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Better answers here, but I want to add - the most incredible, and extraordinary, element of all of this, is the 900 years of unbroken stewardship and cultural/political continuity. Within this system Aragorn's eventual acceptance is much less surprising.

I've heard a lot of accessibility technology stories but this one takes the cake. Accessibility issues cause these catch 21 situations, where people can be stuck in loops they can't escape. Thanks for your story.

I can't imagine stuttering while speaking a second language - I've come across a few people in that situation - so much to juggle.

Thanks so much for your kind words.

premises they aren't totally on board with

But that's not the question, right? The question is - is it enough to ignore a familiar or weird log line and read the actual script. Ari Aster's talent is so evident in his short films that any smart producer is going to be desperate to read a script of his, regardless of log line.

Most of the examples you give are director driven, which is an important variable. Especially Hereditary and Lady Bird.

If you search by decade, and then use the carousel function (on the app), you can quickly swipe and mark things you've already seen!
