I hate the movie Rubber (2010). I saw it years ago because I thought âoh a horror comedy about a murderous tyre, yeah sure!â And it turned out to be the most boring, pretentious slop Iâve ever seen; I should have known as it is a French film, but sometimes the French have good horror so I gave it a chance - MISTAKE! I watched it all the way through and just couldnât stop loathing it. I made the mistake of telling my mate at the time, so when I went to see him, guess what he had on đ¤Śââď¸đ¤Śââď¸đ¤Śââď¸ so Iâve seen it twice and it sucked arse both times.
Whatâs a film or piece of media that gets you irrationally angry?
bananas in pajamas
i fucking hate them so much, itâs the fucking laziest fuckingest twee utter shite made by a loathsome committee of upper middle class toorak wouldnât know a story if it fucked them up the arse twit mums
i donât think my utter hatred is irrational
You know what? Iâm here for your hate on BiP and The Wiggles. I didnât expect either of them to be a response to my question, but I love it!
I have seen so many kids shows, I even took the young seagoon to see the live The Sooty Show , and i generally love kids and YA fiction, cartoons etc
so itâs just the fucking bip , itâs the laziest childrenâs show that has no story, the pitch must have ticked all the boxes at the abc ( other than having an actually story )
đ¤Łđ¤Łđ¤Łđ¤Ł
I also hate the wiggles but I think they have improved some what since they started ( which was when my hate for them was peak ) so Iâm now mostly indifferent
Coincidentally, I watched a French horror film last night called Martyrs (2008).
There was a comment review on this thread recently about 28 Years Later and how it had no redeeming value (which is a preposterous notion by the way)
and soâŚ
Martyrs (2008) is a movie that actually has no redeeming value. Itâs a purely violent and brutal torture porn type film with no real discernible message.
It didnât make me irrationally angry, just confused. Who was this movie made for? and why? What does this piece of art bring to the world?
Morning shows. Donât talk to me about morning shows
decades ago I used to stay up to watch Today, an American syndicated morning show. I was like đ§. The journalism/interviews were better than anything I had seen on ABC or SBS. And then I was đThe journalism of âtrashâ American morning shows is better than our best journos.
Iâm not saying US morning shows are good now or that I agree with their views.
Oh Iâve seen Martyrs (the original and the remake), and yeah I agree with you. It felt like the theme was âtrauma can make you transcend and see beyond!â Which is fkn gross.
The only barely redeemable quality of that film was the end, where we donât hear what she said to Madame, and it was cryptic. I wanted more of that feeling, not the gratuitous torture the MC endures at the hands of some weird rich people cult.
I feel similar about A Serbian Film. That has no redeemable qualities at all, as well, and I do not believe the creators intent that the film was a comment on the Serbian Film industry. It was fkn gross for the sake of being gross, and they should just fkn own that instead of making up reasons as to why itâs a âcommentaryâ.
You have a good point with the cryptic message whispered by the victim at the end. Itâs ostensibly the revelation to what the fate of our soul is after death. Itâs a compelling idea that didnât require 90 minutes of cold brutality to reach that point.
Flatliners (1990) did it so much better.
Flatliners is a classic! I love that film.
A compelling idea pulled off extremely well; unlike Martyrs lol!!
I totally understand where that movie is coming from.
if you visit european art museums, churches and city halls they are full of paintings of martyred saints being brutally tortured. Not just a few paintings, so many. For example, the historic town hall of Leuven ( a city famous for Enlightenment values ) has a giant painting in a public room of a guy getting his intestines wound out . Why? These paintings are just hanging there , so many of them, and are totally out of context in space, time and culture.
I think it could have been done better, and made the Martyr theme more prominent. Instead it was âwatch a woman who is traumatised, go through more trauma and body horrorâ.
Actual martyrs died for a cause or a religious reason. She didnât have a long held personal belief that would warrant such treatment, it was just a fucked up cult doing it to her for a stupid reason.
Iâm glad that dumb cult didnât get the answers they wanted.
looking at the paintings you donât see a reason , there is no context at all, itâs just gruesome suffering
It used to be Paul Higgins doing the weather on the abc.
I had to leave the room.
Rick & Morty. Both voices drive me utterly nuts. No specific linked memory, just insanely annoying.
Hard agree. I used to like it, but I just couldnât really get over the voice acting lol
