What's a movie that gets better and better every time you rewatch it? For me, it's Detention (2011). Super underrated film. Every time I watch it, I'm absolutely DYING the whole way through. Every character is beyond unhinged, and the humor's absurd af. No other movie like it.

This is immaterial to my thoughts on Celine Song or her work but I think more filmmakers, actors, whoever should keep responding seriously to these glib attempts at viral bullshit

The lesson Hollywood should be taking from horror movies performing well is they’re usually the only non-IPs (remakes or sequels) opening. People are starved for originality. It would probably work with other genres too.

Interesting thread. I think this is multifaceted and also agree with some of the replies OP seems to disagree with. Individualism has spiked with social disintegration.

For a movie I only saw once in 2005, I think a lot about how Coach Carter punishes his students by making them do 1,000 pushups. Like, is basketball practice three-hours long?

A lot of these YouTube reaction channels are like an old Internet comedy video I remember where a girl at a party has never heard of THE SIMPSONS. It’s like, what do you mean you’re 32 and are hearing “Billie Jean” for the first time??

You know what I hate? How current "cinephiles" tolerate open ended storytelling in IP because they expect it will eventually get answered five or six films later, while ambiguity is despised in original movies. Minor characters get blasted in original movies for not having full

One of the main qualities of seeing movies in cinemas is that you watch them with your shoes on. Now that more people stream movies at home, directors must factor this lack of audience foot apparel into their aesthetic.

I’m not realistically worried about an impending Terminator future. The dystopian reality of AI is it will further increase wealth inequality and tighten big tech authoritarianism, who can maintain that power by confusing the rest of us about what’s even real.

What bugs me about that band Third Eye Blind is they want to have it both ways. Either you have third eye perception or you don’t. Just call yourself A Normal Amount of Functioning Eyes.

I think it's sexist to call Asami a feminist figure just because she's a female who's experienced trauma. Most male serial killers have experience trauma, and we don't root for their violent acts. A killer is a killer, and we shouldn't call female killers feminist or "empowered."
