Scene goes on for 20 minutes. Excessive nudity swearing. Tell your family "Don't remember this part must be the directors cut'
Can someone actually recommend a film with a long scene that has excessive nudity swearing in it?
Oops. Forgot there was a rape scene. Sorry grandma
Don't worry grandma, someone's gonna turn his face into putty with a fire extinguisher. Whoops, spoilers! :)

ive always enjoyed The Man From Earth, a movie about a bunch of people sitting together in a room talking about one of them being a 14000 year old biologically immortal cave man. its such a fun idea and they spend almost the whole time just talking about it with no flash backs or anything. ill admit some of it is a little hokey. one time i watched it with a group of friends and one of them said he wished he could have the time back lol. i still really like it, just dont watch the sequel. its so stupid idk why they bothered to make it.
That's one of my favourites, though I did find it weird how intense some of them got. Like I understand the one lady as her worldview was falling apart, but Art and Will seemed crazy with how they were reacting. Keeping it vague to avoid spoilers, but John should have turned what Will threatened at the end back on him after what he threatened in the middle. Guy shouldn't have had his license after pulling that shit, let alone act like he's the one speaking from wisdom.
But that sequel lol... They dialed the intensity even higher, though I can't tell if the movie was made with a "this is what you get for pissing a certain group off" mindset or a "this movie wants to show even more how crazy this certain group can be" mindset. The writing was so bad in the second one.
edit: never mind. only read the first half of the comment. Read the second half, and you said you'd seen the second one.
Ha, I remember screening Perfect Blue for some friends and feeling like this. I don't think they really liked it unfortunately, which is a shame. That movie is a masterpiece.
I kind of hate watching movies with other people because they turn their interest in the film into a referendum on me as a human being.
it's so fucking weird. it's just a movie man, it exists whether we watch it or not. your massive insecurity about your identity is not my issue man.
If someone recommends me a movie with a regressive subtext, I'll either assume they agree with it or are media illiterate. I loved the look of realization on people's faces when I explained that Kingsmen was a libertarian morality tale.
I probably would not recommend movies to you. Too dicey. Id love to hear your opinions on stuff but I woukd never attach my name to anything.
To me Kingsmen was just "dude, like, imagine James bond, but like, it isnt. And also the good guy from Bridget Jones totally murders a whole church."

Kingsmen is supposed to be satire though. The whole thing is drenched in camp and hamminess, as a sort of riff on the old Bond flicks. You can practically feel the writer rolling his eyes ironically during parts of it. They had Samuel Jackson play a character who is almost the exact opposite of the kind of character he's known for playing. It's funny that you'd pick that example and then talk about your superior media literacy.

I show Tetsuo: The Iron Man to anyone I can get to watch it. They thought they knew what weird shit was because they’ve watched some David Lynch, but then they saw a drilldo and a dick tank.
drilldo
Welp, I'm fuckin sold.
It’s fucking spectacular.
I had heard The Lobster was funny, so picked it to watch with my wife. I still remember the accusing way she looked at me every other scene.
And she STILL mentions this movie years later! Fairly I had just suggested watching Tusk with her a few weeks prior ( "it's Kevin smith sweetie it should be funny!"), and she'll never forgive me for that suggestion either - or the though that I might have a thing for people turning into animals.
Yeah, mine too
Decent movie, but I don't think it's Yorgos' best.
Well if it was a random pick then oh well, whatever. But otherwise then yeah -I find myself nitpicking more. Bc I’m vouching for it being worthy of our time, so it’s reflective on me. Plus I’m trying to gauge if my company is enjoying themselves.
Me too! I’ll pick lesser known films just to broaden horizons or see people’s reactions when they don’t know what to expect. It’s very much part of the fun😁
Okay but why am I watching 2 cats watch a movie?
spoiler
(you used POV incorrectly)
Or the POV just refers to the text, and the image is a separate thing acting as a visual aide
And this kinda thing is why I don't pick films, TV or music for groups anymore. That and far too often getting negative responses from others.
I hate it when that happens. I had a super abusive brother when I was growing up that would berate me all the time whenever I watched any kind of anime around him.
Thank God he moved to another country

The Immaculate Conception of Little Dizzle
Bad Lieutenant II. If you dont like it we can still be friends, but the harder you judge me for liking it the funnier it gets.
Ink is a fantastic watch. The whole movie used to be on YouTube but I don't think it is anymore.
LOVED Ink! It is an odd combination of low production value and oddly something that pulls you in!
What timeframe is "old" ?
Is there a name for this phenomenon? Just did a group road trip and the hotel I picked ended up being shit. Guess whose value as a human went down as a result? Mine.
Why? I did my best, I researched, the online reviews were good. So why does every observation about the rude staff and funny smell reflect on me personally?
I'm that way anytime it's my turn to pick what anime to watch.
Redo of Healer
The Stunt Man
Great movie with Peter O'Toole and Barbara Hershey.
One joke about a 14 year old prostitute, but what movie is perfect?
Guest House Paradiso.
Why is the POV from a third person? Is the cat having an out of body experience?
Got harder to handle the pressure the further into the movie they got.
I did this on my honeymoon and learned that the action-packed adventure movie I recommended was actually about healing wounded familial relationships and made my wife cry XD
Fast and the Furious?
