More theaters need a rotation of classics. There's a whole subset of movies I'd love to see in theaters again and having to wait for some small theater half an hour away to show one of those for one weekend a year is a bummer.

I didn't think One Battle After Another was very good. Felt like my generation's Crash, though not nearly as bad

Its TikTok now. No Real hollywood is a lot of TikTok slop.

Cinematic universes shouldn't live forever. At some point, there is just too much of it, both for people making it and for people watching it.

I cannot stand The Godfather. Any mafia shit, really. I hate the whole family hierarchy thing, I hate the guise of freedom when it’s just an organization reminiscent of cops or the military, and I hate the blind loyalty to a system that only serves one person or family, it’s all just so petty and capitalistic, the mafia is fucking stupid.

This is like saying that you hate 'Apocalypse Now' and 'Full Metal Jacket' because you hate army.

You’re not supposed to like the Mafia in these movies.

I agree that the system sucks and that, IRL, they're bad people and harmful to society. Still a good movie though.

Lookie here boys, we gots ourselves a tough guy. Hey, Rico, why don't you show our friend what happens to tough guys round here. Maybe a little swim with the fishies will show him we ain't so bad after all.

Inception isn't that great.

It's complex for the sake of complexity and the complication needlessly makes the story more difficult to parse. The revelation about there being an additional layer before reality is such an overused trope that it wasn't an interesting twist and added nothing to the plot.

I didn't find the movie to be that complicated or difficult to understand. it had a lot of cool visuals that made it seem like your brain was supposed to be surprised or something. but there was nothing complicated about it
