My wife enjoyed it as a simple popcorn flick, I enjoyed ranting about it on the drive home.

“Ok guys, listen up! Emperor’s been killed, and we got a whole bunch of dead senators, gladiators, and soldiers in the Colosseum. I know you guys have probably heard there’s an army of 5,000 soldiers marching in a straight line right outside the walls and also that there’s another army of 6,000 people that just got mentioned in the previous scene, but still we got a job to do. We gotta get these dead bodies outta the Colosseum right this instant!” “Boss, you want us to clean the whole Colosseum right now, when it was loosely implied that the whole city was fomenting a riot?” “You’re goddamn right, Wazlowski! All the bodies, weapons, any debris, I want it gone. Now!” “Alright, boss, you got it. What do you want us to do with the giant platform that all the senators and that old lady were tied to? Obviously we’d remove that, too, right?” “Don’t get smart with me, Wazlowski. Unchain all the dead senators, have someone climb up onto the giant platform and untie the dead broad, remove absolutely every bit of the carnage that’s still raining down all around us, but don’t move the giant platform one inch! That gladiator who got on a horse and chased Denzel Washington out of here a few minutes ago even though it doesn’t make any sense that he and Denzel both ended up riding horses out of the same gate based on where they were literally seconds earlier, that guy may want to come back here immediately after the battle to gently touch the giant platform with his hand and stoically stare off into the distance, considering all he’s lost…and all he’s gained.”

Late the the party, just saw this a couple days ago. What a ridiculous film.

Yes, you have correctly interpreted the answer.

Because you don’t want to make a sequel at all but the studio forces you to, so fuck it.

They’re already very low. I hope it pays off for them in the long run, but FM25 sounds like it’s gonna be a mess.
- Comment on Why does my beard grow back faster after shaving? 2 months ago:
It doesn’t, it’s just that going from zero to 1/4" inch of hair is a lot more noticeable than going from 1 to 1.25 inches.
- Comment on [Monthly thread] What have you been watching? September 2024 3 months ago:
In the last month, have gone to the theater for…
Twisters - exactly what you expect it to be.
Deadpool & Wolverine - aggressively boring, walked out in the final half hour. I don’t fully blame the movie, I was in a bad mood to begin with…but it did nothing to charm me.
It Ends with Us - ridiculous movie with a strange take on domestic violence
Alien:Romulus - entertaining, if you can get past the “it’s a dystopian corpo hellscape grinding these dirt poor miners into dust, but also they’re all in their early 20s and sexy with perfect hair.” I’m not a huge Alien lore purist, so I didn’t have the same reaction that more hardcore fans probably had.
My wife wants to see Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice but has not seen original Beetlejuice, so we’re planning to stream that tonight or tomorrow. I haven’t seen it since it came out and barely remember it.

The Mad Max people had it right, there should be way more mohawks and scrap metal body armor going around.

In Iraq. On guard duty. Go to the med station when I get off. Extracts two teeth, here’s an aspirin, 24 hours bed rest. Back on guard duty.

Emma Stone/Yorgos Lanthimos is one thing, but when Jesse Plemons showed up in the trailer it was a done deal for me. That dude does not miss.

Thought it was good, not great. Definitely not the “you had to be there” big screen experience that Fury Road was.
Tap for spoiler
I was surprised that Anya Taylor-Joy didn’t even show up until an hour into the film.

- Comment on [Discussion thread] The Fall Guy 7 months ago:
Just watched an early screening last night. Loved it! It’s not an outright comedy but it had the audience laughing throughout by being just clever or humorous enough in between the copious action scenes.
Your enjoyment of the movie will be highly dependent on whether you find Ryan Gosling charismatic or not, because he’s in pretty much every frame.
