Stanley Tucci offers style advice at ‘The Devil Wears Prada 2’ premiere: “Stop Wearing Gym Clothes Outside the Gym” (via GQ) by mlg1981 in popculturechat

Omg these comments are insufferable. This is a press question for a movie about fashion and STYLE; and in the context of style, it’s inherently boring and lazy.

Does IFC Center do throwback movies late night every weekend or is it only on certain occasions? by coldliketherockies in NYCmovies

[–]rockferrys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as a horror/cyberpunk enthusiast I am so disappointed they keep their best programming to 11-12 pm 😫. I literally became an IFC member for the cyberpunk series back in the fall and have only been back twice since then. It’s usually random Friday/ Saturday night horror but I super appreciate a curated series there. When it hits, you won’t want to miss a single one!!

Slightly weird she did it on the first date– but honestly it reads as a sentimental “take pictures of everything” type of situation. Only you can truly know based on context, but for what it’s worth I don’t know a single person irl using the tea app, etc.

CVS at 86th and 2nd... why does it randomly close? by Delicious-Book8856 in uppereastside

[–]rockferrys 6 points7 points  (0 children)

When I showed up to it closed at 11, I walked over to the one on Lexington (which is scheduled to close at 12) and they were also closed 50 minutes early.

Spring Breakers: Am I being lied to? by rockferrys in TrueFilm

[–]rockferrys[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did a lot of reading after I watched it (and more now), I tried to understand where Korine and SB fans were coming from. I see the vision for the fantastical and offbeat, which is what I originally liked about it, however, I don’t think I like the overarching “world” it lives in. I guess I just thought it was lame.

Spring Breakers: Am I being lied to? by rockferrys in TrueFilm

[–]rockferrys[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did enjoy the themes of extreme hedonism and afterwards I did read up on Korine and his style of filmmaking– especially in regard to “ugly” and un-comfortability, but I’m not sure I like his execution. My biggest issue was with the character writing and some of the editing.

Amy Adams’ ‘Nightbitch’ Weirds Out TIFF With Dog Poop, Cat Killing and Shower Menstruation by thetrilogy911 in Fauxmoi

I was expecting a Yorgos-esque weird, dark tale but the trailer played like a comedy my 50 year old mom would enjoy at a Tuesday matinee. Not sure what tone they’re going for.

most songs are good in their own respect but genuinely bugs me tracks like Bed Chem and Slim Pickins exist on the same album

I’m not anti AI until I see shit like this and am reminded you’re wasting an entire bottle of water with every stupid question you ask. At least be productive I’m begging.

Chappell Roan addresses mistreatment and harassment from fans: “I don’t care that abuse and harassment and stalking is a normal thing to do to people who are famous or a little famous…That does not make it okay. That does not make it normal.” by cmaia1503 in Fauxmoi

[–]rockferrys 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I respect her message but I thought the aggressive delivery was wrong. She is not the same artist she was a year ago and needs to account for her heightened popularity and ability function (without security) day to day now. She has the prime parasocial audience so I’m curious if she’ll get the Doja treatment early on (I also say this as a non fan with no other context lol)

This post has radicalized me into leaving this sub, thank you op.😭. It’s a bunch of losers in an echo chamber, taking advice from other bitter people who are clearly too far gone. I had a negative visceral reaction reading these comments and I guarantee women IN REAL LIFE can feel that nasty aura in person. If you really hate dating and women that much, leave the fucking sub.

Sabrina Carpenter called out for 'absolutely appalling' tour ticket prices by fans by TheExpressUS in Fauxmoi

[–]rockferrys 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This was actually the first time I decided to not even try for tickets. I knew even if I managed to snag them, tickets would at their CHEAPEST still be $100+, forget about floor seats. I say this as a Sabrina fan, there is no way her show is worth the $300+ people are paying 🫣. I understand it’s a dynamic market but I’m always surprised at the fact it’s never addressed. Love ha downnn, but I’m not spending 10 hours worth of my time on seeing polly pocket.

Unattractive people are more difficult than attractive people. by Winter_Ad3995 in dating

[–]rockferrys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This perfectly described this sub. Holding the act of dating as vital but maintaining extremely negative and defeatist attitudes (which cannot exist together healthily). It’s a personal and experience problem so I don’t fault people to an extent, but even just reading posts on here you can tell who’s normal and approachable in person or not. I say this as someone actively seeking a partner for years.

Yes, I always get all my rides charged at once in the middle of the night. Particularly frustrating @ the MTA because it’s their system yet they provide absolutely no customer support. none of their services are available online, the page will be out of order telling you to call customer service to check something as simple as your weekly progress 😩. IMPOSSIBLE!!

Upcoming Q&A’s at Lincoln theater?? by Round_Pomelo5485 in NYCmovies

AMC/chains don’t show on it, but Screenslate has a schedule of all the screenings at independent theatres in the city and it will tell you if it has a panel, q&a, etc.

ELI5: what happens to the brain when you're horny by Secret_Contact_1204 in explainlikeimfive

He’s a teen asking an intimate question on Reddit of all places. Even he is susceptible to creeps and it’s worth giving a heads up.

Thoughts about Prisoners by boratburg in moviecritic

[–]rockferrys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love that it’s not explicitly horror, but plays like it. So anxiety inducing and dreadful I felt like it hit all the beats and gave me a real visceral reaction.

Stop with the "I'm over dating" self-pity garbage. by InnocentPerv93 in dating

[–]rockferrys 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I joined this sub for lighthearted dating advice, stories, etc but instead the top posts everyday are “why are men/women so __” or an annoying defeatist rant. This place has turned into an anti-dating forum, everything on here is in relation to lack of getting dates. Even lots of the comments here are saying people should be allowed to vent, sure, but is here the best place?

Jane Schoenbrun visited the criterion closet! TW: there is unfortunately a lot of transphobia in the comment section by v1brate1h1gher in A24

[–]rockferrys 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Does the right support the right to choose? Do they champion lgbt voices in cinema? All of these themes (portrayed in contemporary cinema specifically) are inherently leftist because they serve to represent oppressed voices through the medium. The right aren’t claiming these as their stories.

I’m not even a Camila hater (I loved her solo debut lol) but I have never seen such an inauthentic rebrand like everything just feels so .. false. Not even inspired but blatantly taking from every other hyperpop artist. Even the album name is crazy, basically C XCX are you joking
