What’s that one scene where you say “you had to be there” to someone who never experienced it in theaters?

Who’s a movie or TV character that’s fully aware they’re evil, but believes they are “necessary evil”?

Tywin Lannister from Game of Thrones is one of the first that comes to mind for me! He is fully aware that his malicious actions destroy lives, but he is prime example of someone who lives with the mindset that “the ends justify the means.”

Remember Screamers from 95? A tense sci-fi thriller about deadly machines, based on a Philip K. Dick story. Rewatched it recently and was impressed by how well it holds up.

I feel Matthew is one of the best comedic actors of our generation. However, based on his acting in Scream, I think we missed out on the opportunity of watching him crush some serious/ action/ drama roles. What are your thoughts? Am I wrong? Was he meant for comedy alone?

Best of all Wahlberg’s acting? Donnie Wahlberg in The Sixth Sense (1999).

The Jimmy Hoffa disappearance may be the most justified crime the Mafia ever committed. How dare he use an ethnic slur.

Mrs. Doubtfire is a weird movie

302 Upvotes

So I got to choose a movie to watch with the kids (9, 13 and 15) and decided to show them a childhood classic. Mrs. Doubtfire.

That movie was a hell of a lot weirder then I remember.

I remember Pierce Brosnan being the bad guy but honestly the guy didn’t do anything wrong and is mostly the victim of Robin Williams.

And the part in the restaurant with Robin Williams telling him he has to compete with a vibrator which pounds like a jackhammer. WHAT KIND OF KIDS MOVIE IS THIS!? 😂

I mean the kids liked the movie so mission accomplished but damn the 90’s were something else.

For me, it’s The Reflecting Skin.

This film has wonderful cinematography, a gorgeous atmosphere, and a beautiful soundtrack.

The story is absolutely bone-chilling, and very nicely executed.

I definitely think it deserves more recognition.

How come the Avatar movies evaporate completely from the collective memory?

Post image
Upvotes

I remember when the first movie came out, everyone was obsessively talking about the visuals, going to see it multiple times at the cinema and collectively making it the highest grossing flick of all time (not inflation-adjusted but still a great result). Of course, the plot was at times laughably derivative but generally it was good fun. Then time passes, 3D is no longer in vogue and the movie is... Largely forgotten. A decade and a half later a sequel is released, flocks of people head over to cinemas again, critics are more harsh this time, but the visuals are still pretty impressive, and the box office performance is phenomenal. Nevertheless, I don't think the Avatar movies come up in discussions often enough taking into account their box office results, the name of the director and groundbreaking CGI. It seems even Cameron's relatively low-key True Lies is more revered than Avatar, let alone Titanic and Terminator 1&2. No one seems to really care about Avatar besides Cameron himself and probably the actors involved. I swear, Marvel, DC and Star wars commercial flops generate more heated discussions than the adventures of Jake Sully and Co. The pinnacle of stupidity, which is the fast and furious franchise is more likely to spring to mind when asked about successful blockbusters. What's wrong with Avatar lol?
