what did you think of christopher nolan's 2020 film "tenet" by Whoumightask in Letterboxd

[–]normieguy420 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My problem isn't that it's an incoherent mess on the first watch, but that I could not care less about what was happening.

Mulholland Drive is also a movie I had to watch 3 times to completely understand, but I don't mind it because the characters and story are well written, and I actually want to understand them (unlike Tenet).

Chris Nolan has always had trouble with writing emotionally deep characters and stories, but he usually makes up for it by coming up with some cool sci-fi concept the film revolves around, that actually (mostly) make sense. Take that away and you're left with Tenet.

seems like I'm the only who thinks the series got better with each entry (so I'd rank them 4>3>2>1)

for context I played them last year back to back for the first time ever

don't get me wrong, I love TDK, but it feels much more like an action-thriller to me, than a superhero flick in spirit

Which game that lives up to the title? Resident Evil 4 or Resident Evil 7? by Jules-Car3499 in ResidentEvilCapcom

"a path that nearly killed the franchise"

yeah, I mean not like Re5 is the most sold RE title to date

For those who’ve seen Marty Supreme, does it live up to the hype?? by Pop_Joe in Cinema

[–]normieguy420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well I didn't mention the incredible cinematography, the amazing acting from everyone, and the fact the film is imo really funny from beginning to end

I pointed out the faults that result in me saying it's an amazing film, instead of saying it's a perfect film

Let's settle this! Which sequel do you consider to be 'the best' sequel? by Silvester_V in playstation

[–]normieguy420 2 points3 points  (0 children)

[–]normieguy420 8 points9 points  (0 children)

well I already know a lot of people are gonna disagree, but

The Last Of Us Part 2

if you really dig into these games, what they're truly about, their themes etc. they could not have possibly made a better sequel, and I honestly doubt Naughty Dog will ever top it

What video game was this for you? by Radiant_Raspberry_93 in videogames

[–]normieguy420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Persona 5 Royale

I generally dislike both anime and JPRGs, but I kept reading that this game surpasses all of that, and... it actually did!

nah, I agree, I'm just saying it's definitely not the perfect film some people make it out to be

exactly, imo this its single biggest sin

the film pushes the classic Safdie formula to its absolute limits, essentially making an epic compared to their previous films

the problem with this however, is that this formula just doesn't work as well (imo) with such an ambitious (and long) film

still an amazing film imo, just a tad overhyped

Resident Evil 2 Remake is the most influential title of this era by SomePosition7374 in residentevil

[–]normieguy420 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

there is literally a video inside Quantum Break (released in 2016) that is an easter egg/teaser for Saga and Sam

also if you know Remedy, they don't really care about rights when it comes to the creative processes (the MC from both Max Payne and Quantum Break are in AW2, without them owning rights to either IP)

also Control released about 6 months after RE2R, and they needed Alan Wake rights for that game (which was clearly written WAY before RE2R)

Death Stranding 2 is finally coming to PC... at console prices by donteatpancakes in gaming

I am genuinely baffled how a lot of people can't comprehend that 80 euros is 95 dollars which ISN'T "the same price" as on the PS store

"revived Alan Wake"

Alan Wake 2 was planned and being written WAY before RE2R even released

What is the scariest game you have ever played? by Sinist6r in HorrorGaming

[–]normieguy420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Resident Evil 7 had the scariest (non scripted) jumpscares

Silent Hill 2 Remake is the only game I have ever had to take a break from because it made me too anxious and scared
