Love the authoritarian right liberalism part-of-history blu-team

I've heard weapons was written as a way for Zach to deal with the grief of Trevor Moore's death. Anyway good ranking, though the political compass is kind of weird way of doing it, but it's funny and that is the most important part.
Sucks you decided to depict lex Luthor as a Chad though. Hes the biggest soyboy around.

Unlimited Shaheds on the political compass

one battle after another #3

there's no way this person isn't weird about black people

It's a good movie. We don't have to do the online contrarian discourse thing of pretending something isn't good because of something else or it's not good because a lot of people like it.

Defies Iran's theocracy in a variety of ways

They oppose the great satan but they still suck.

It's by Panahi, it's pretty good. He's an Iranian dissident that has been forbidden from making films in Iran, yet he keeps making movies in Iran (often about how much he doesn't like the Islamic Republic and its attitude towards women and freedom of expression), gets thrown in prison, everybody in the West goes "hey when you get out next, you should leave Iran," and he declines and continues to live in Iran and make movies because he loves Iran. His movie about his daughter dressing as a man to sneak into a football match because she's a football freak is fantastic. No Bears is probably my favorite of his. He opposes the Islamic Republic but under no circumstances is he a freak like the deranged Iranian diaspora who wants Iran to get bombed; during the Twelve Days War he supported Iran and condemned Israel, so I imagine he's doing the same now.

I have no doubt in this clear and non-negotiable point and I have stated my position explicitly and will say it again: an attack on my homeland, Iran, is in no way acceptable. Israel has violated Iran and should be tried in an international trial as a war aggressor.

Panahi is important because you can show his movies to people, and the overwhelming impression they get of Iran is that it is a "normal" place if that makes sense. It's not some foreign strange where with zealots and crazies and robes flowing and shit, it's just a normal place where people gotta pay bills and grumble about their government and go to parties.

Superman is visually ugly? It's no Roger Deacons but I liked my cape slop of 2025.

The worst movie I've seen this year was called 'Not Without Hope' and it was about a bunch of obnoxious rich footballers getting stuck in the ocean by their own stupidness and also it's about Christianity or something.

I thought K-Pop Demon Hunters was a netflix series until I saw this.

I don't think I've watched a movie that has come out in the last...3-4 years. This political compass thing is making me think I'm not missing anything.

[–] BanMeFromPosting@hexbear.net 3 points 3 hours ago

One battle after another is incredibly funny. Sinners is a good action flick kind of a la supernatural Green Room, with less pressure. Also the latest mad max (2024 I think) is great too, check it out.
Honestly the top ten movies in this list are definitely worth watching

[–] ZWQbpkzl@hexbear.net 9 points 9 hours ago

Ranking seems actually accurate based on the handful I've seen.

I have only heard of three of these movies (Avatar: Fire & Ash, Superman, K-Pop Demon Hunters), of which I have only seen one (the latter) blob-no-thoughts

[–] Ath3ro@hexbear.net 14 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

I am begging you to watch sinners, it is one of my favorite movies ever

In looking it up I realized that Michael B Jordan isn't the most famous basketball player ever, but an actor. Clarifies some of that discourse around the tourrettes N word situation. I really thought the basketball player was involved

Sinners, One Battle After Another, Marty Supreme, and No Other Choice are the ones on this list that I'd say are must watches

[–] SevenSkalls@hexbear.net 3 points 6 hours ago

Feel like I have to watch Uncut Gems before Marty Supreme because I've heard them compared to each other a lot.

[–] EstraDoll@hexbear.net 2 points 5 hours ago

K-Pop Demon Hunters came out like 3 years ago and you cannot convince me otherwise
