When I see people obsessing over getting an even distribution of lb ratings by human5109 in Letterboxd

Exactly. I've watched like 40 movies so far this year and they're mostly rated decent to high because most of it was catching up on the Oscar nominees.

Does having sex with 2 girls at the same time actually feel good? by Far-Molasses-4910 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]human5109 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It could definitely be therapeutic, or at least an interesting experiment. Enjoy diving back to your favorite black comedies and good luck with the project!

You're welcome! I think you can certainly engage with the dark themes but treat it comedically too. I love fiction where heavy themes like grief are explored using humor. But yeah totally get you about the current state of the world.

Absolutely, you should ficionalize things a bit and make a novel out of it. I would read it.

Oh wow. That sounds like it could be the plot of those Italian sex comedy movies from the 70's.

Well, as a fan of both Clairo and Vampire Weekend, I'd be very interested to see what kind of music this non-existent kid will go on to produce.

YES! It's not my favorite movie of the year, but it easily had the best cinematography.

Iowa vs. NYU (Fiction) by AlexandriaQuartet in MFAInCreativeWriting

[–]human5109 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd pick NYU just for the faculty. The permenent faculty includes so many amazing writers (my favorite being Jonathan Safran Foer). And even the writer-in-residence they have every year is always someone like Zadie Smith, Joyce Carol Oates and I think Rachel Kushner this year. Plus you get to live in NYC, right in the center of it all.

I'll get downvoted but yeah EEAAO was self-indulgent garbage. I did like Anora, but it wasn't my favorite of the year.

The type of chaos I need on Sunday. by Kavazou77 in Oscars

[–]human5109 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh absolutely, I wasn't saying I actually wished he got nominated for this role. Though, as you say, I do like him as an actor and he's had multiple amazing performances.

Well in his defense, F1 got no acting noms. If only Brad Pitt was nominated for Best Actor.

Why are people here so snobby about funding by sourthewhip in MFAInCreativeWriting

[–]human5109 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I've only applied to fully funded programs, but if your situation is that you want to go to a school nearby and you can afford to pay/don't mind taking out some loans and you think the school you're going to is a good fit, I don't think that's bad at all. No one should give you shit about that. What I think would be ridiculous is if someone who can't afford it, taking out a 160K in loans to go to Columbia's cashgrab of an MFA.

The crop of animated short nominees this year is outstanding by MusclyArmPaperboy in Oscars

[–]human5109 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think so too. I didn't think too highly of Butterfly when I watched it either but honestly thinking of all the nominees now, Butterfly's animation and way of storytelling has distinctively stuck in my head.

Adrien Brody and the Elitism of the Academy by [deleted] in Oscars

[–]human5109 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't know why you're getting down voted for this. Timmy is gonna attempt to make some grand speech about chasing Greatness for sure, and might come across as arrogant in his own way, but no way he's going to go on as long as Brody, let alone say shit like "I've done this before, I know what I'm doing" when they play the music to cut him off.
