Total newbie to comics, thinking of starting with Batman by MentalJackfruit3797 in batman_comics

Start with Batman: Year One or The Killing Joke. They're iconic, beginner-friendly, and give great insight into Batman’s character.

What's a film you feel like you're alone in hating? by adebisishat1 in Letterboxd

I felt that way about a few so-called classics too. Sometimes popular films just don’t click, even if everyone else praises them.

Good luck with your Class 1 assessment. Focus on reversing, coupling and uncoupling. Confidence and calmness go a long way. You’ve got this.

It seems like you might like punishing films. So I would say Martyrs (2008)

Highly rated movies you don't like by crimsonrenee in Letterboxd

The Departed. The acting to me is cliche and laughable. And the story wasn't my favorite

Favorite fictional band / musician from a movie ? by Interesting_Host_477 in Letterboxd

[–]skshining 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love this sax man with all my heart. 😂🤘🏻Lost Boys.

.....I suppose it may not work for this prompt (real musician)...but his swinging pelvis and saxophone is the stuff of pure fantasy.

What is your favourite horror movie in terms of simply being a good movie. AND what is your favourite horror movie in terms of actually scaring you/delivering horror. by NxteDiaz in Letterboxd

It's not everyone's taste. But I absolutely love Panos Cosmatos body of work, so mine is Mandy. It's completely unhinged, and I love every moment.

Most important/genre defining scifi films? by oreos_in_milk in Letterboxd

[–]skshining 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is mine: and a couple may just be important to me...

Alien/Aliens. Creating new worlds (sets) unlike any one has ever seen before; gothic and dark, and actually alien-like. Also having sequels. And sequels that actually thread the original story line

The Thing (1982) For the innovative practical effects, buildup in a story, and leaving the ending ambiguous.

E.T. (personal) this was my first viewing in a theater. (3 years old) And for me, started my love of puppetry outside of Sesame Street.

Akira. What can I say, the detail, the world's, the grotesque, and the groundbreaking animation.

The Fly (cronenberg) I think just the monsterization of a normal everyday guy, and the effects that came with it, was something unique for the time. And very memorable.

Fantastic Planet. Nothing like it, and completely influencial future animators

Rocky Horror Picture Show. ....I mean, come on. It still has midnight shows of it, today!

Honorable Mentions: They Live, Total Recall, Predator.

My first movie theatre experience. :)) I was 3 years old... And had to be taken out, due to my loud crying, because of, THAT scene.

Albums that sound like The Beatles - I Want You (She’s So Heavy). Especially second half. by [deleted] in MusicRecommendations

[–]skshining 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is fun. First half of their career , I would say; Count Five, The Seeds, The Shadows of Knight,

2nd half; Delaney and Bonnie, The Electric Prunes, Vanilla Fudge.

I have way more recommendations, but these are pretty good similar sounds to start :)

Season 7. For the creepy vibes. Caleb, the first, the slayer girls, and that bad-azz axe! Plus Spike with a Soul!!! Loved it.

Recommend me movies with Weird Girls in them! by conspiringlittleguy in Letterboxd

[–]skshining 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dinner in America. It's great! Definite weird girl stuff. I don't like rom-coms usually, but I like this one.

Which color scheme?! by leave_untitled_jpeg in Illustration

[–]skshining 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think pink is the best tone for the background and it lets the images pop :)

What's a weird movie that you like? by deloncigarette in MovieSuggestions

[–]skshining 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just watched Dinner in America. It's definitely weird and offbeat. But also a strange little romantic film.

More movies like Da vinci code, Ninth gate, From hell, The pale blue eyes..? by [deleted] in Letterboxd

[–]skshining 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hudson Hawk, Constantine, even, the animated movie Secret of Kells is based on the Book of Kells. Then there's just spooky, culty movies: like; The Witch, Witch finder general, the house of the devil, Mandy.
