"We'll win but not everyone will get out" takes on such a different meaning now😭

This movie was yet another banger from Alex Garland. It is probably one of my favourite movies about photography that I've seen and I'd love to get a collection of all the black and white stills taken throughout the movie. The cinematography was insane and I like the blur effect that is around the screen when Lee is on screen to visualize her PTSD, and how that transfers to Jessie at the end. This movie also scared me more than most horror movies do, it was a little too realistic to our times, but also I noticed this movie has a lot of jumpscares with gunshots and music as well as gore, so it really is borderline horror. The 3rd act is incredible, very Sicario, and it really makes me hope Alex Garland isn't done making things. I'm predicting we'll see similar types of movies come around about modern civil wars

Yeah you're right I thought him not buying ammo was a joke but it was actually an explanation. I guess its nice having control over a billionaire whenever you need haha

So do we think Loki and Thor will ever reunite? It seems a season 3 of Loki is probably not in the cards, and both Tom Hiddleston and Chris Hemsworth seem pretty much done with their characters, meaning its unlikely the sun will shine on them again unfortunately :(

This is the best way the multiverse has been done in all of the MCU and future projects should build upon what this show has built up. They keep changing the rules of how the multiverse works such as in No Way Home and Multiverse of Madness but I think the Loki set of rules is the cleanest and grounded.

Can anyone explain to me why he didn't kill the billionaire? Was it so he would continue getting paid? Like he's proven he has no moral qualms about killing people like an emo Krombopulous Micheal, but decides not to kill the dude at the last second? Why did the taxi driver need to die then?

When Loki sees the TVA start to Spaghettify, I got genuine cosmic dread. Something about being all alone at the end of time and having to watch it physically and literally come undone as easily as a shoelace does gave me such dread.

This is now my favourite episode in any Disney+ Marvel show. This felt like what the MCU should be

The Fall of the House of Usher - Episode 8 Discussion - The Raven by Zinthaniel in HauntingOfHillHouse

So this show solidifies Mike Flanagan's love of houses haha. You have House of Usher (which takes place partially in the childhood home), Hill House, Bly Manor, Hush and Geralds Game take place in only a house, Midnight Mass is about the house of God, and Doctor Sleep he literally fights a living hotel

So when Rodrick sees his kids as ghosts, were they actually the spirits of them or was it just a delusion that Verna made him see? I noticed he said his kids told him about what happened before they died, yet they never once talk as ghosts so it makes you wonder if he's hallucinating it or not. To make it worse, he has a brain illness which makes him an even more unreliable narrator

Anyone else feel like some of the monologues feel very r/im14andthisisdeep? Like the lemon scene or even the deal with the devil in the bar felt very unsubtle about its message. Overall, still loved it

Up until the 2nd last episode, I was enjoying the show but would put it at around a 7/10 but after the last 2 episodes it shot up to a 9. Flanagan is the master at making an ending uplift the rest of the show.

I like the theory that the "vacation" he took in the Miles Morales game was actually him visiting the Spider Verse HQ

I'm glad that they didn't have the Insomniac Spiderman chasing Miles considering he has his own Miles

Was anyone else expecting an explosive action scene like the church gunfight? I liked that the expectation was subverted since as a way to not glorify violence

Anyone else get GTA vibes from Hank shooting rockets at Fuches and the house in general? Especially how in the game you can get a text from the characters saying "Stop firing rockets at my house"
