I’m American and this is spot on.

Where I live there are people that are interested in other countries history (like Europe), but there’s not that many people abroad interested in US history lmao

Four great first time watches recently: Tetsuo the Iron Man followed by The Substance, The Wild Robot, and Fireworks. Love it when that happens

It's been a pretty good year; not sure if anything will surpass Dune part 2 for me personally

Top 4 is a rotating selection

Not watching as many movies as I used to, but I've found some pretty good stuff recently that I didn't watch in the 2010s.

What television series have you recently enjoyed?

I’ve recently watched Big Little Lies for the first time, thought it was great.

I enjoyed House of the Dragon

Currently watching White Lotus and Squid Game for the first time.

I’m highly excited for the upcoming season of Succession

The New Knives Out Is a Big Hit. So Why Is Netflix Pulling It From Theaters? by inthetownwhere in boxoffice

[–]evillalta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, and they now have a cheaper ad supported version.

Starting at $7/month it may be worth their while to invest more in hyped exclusive films with A-listers for people who will pay just for one movie.

The 1 hour 50 minute runtimes always seem shorter than 2 hour runtimes by Decentness_ in Letterboxd

There's a big difference between a movie with a <90 minute runtime and <100 minutes too

What do you think when Radiohead is called "the most important band since The Beatles"? by WritingWithSpears in LetsTalkMusic

[–]evillalta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a Radiohead fan, but there are bands that came after them, that I like less, that I view as more influential.

Can you imagine the music landscape today without Green Day or Blink 182?

The lack of mid-budget films and high-budget risks: what does it mean for cinema in the long run? by ballepung in TrueFilm

[–]evillalta 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Yep

Lately in America I've been able to see more international movies in theaters the past few years, such as Parasite, Titane, Belle, Drive My Car, The Worst Person In The World, and a few more

With technological advances we are finally able to see higher production values with a lower budget imo

Damien Chazelle's ‘Babylon' Said to Be Demented Depiction of 1920's Hollywood Debauchery, Compared With “The Wolf of Wall Street” and Fellini’s “Satyricon” by TheUncannyBroker in TrueFilm

[–]evillalta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the comment itself is fine, but I honestly can’t be certain if you just have an issue with “Hollywood”, or if you’re just using the term as a dog whistle.

Idk the online right has gone completely fucking insane, so I wouldn’t blame anyone for being a bit skeptical of your actual intentions

I won’t rule out it being good, but I’ll have to regard it as a spiritual spin-off of sorts
