Re: The Latest Date Changes 2: The New Batch

They really missed out by not titling their latest film The Sound of Sight.

Re: Rate That Movie Part IV: Movies Never Sleep

I also saw it a few weeks ago. I actually liked it a lot more than Drive My Car, which definitely did outstay its welcome and was too bogged down by its Ibsen connections. Evil was a bit more visual, and much more mysterious. The themes are a little on the nose, but I liked how the team presenting t...

Re: Tranny Tackles the Cinema: The Films of 5/24

And I'm really starting to sound like a broken record here but there have been too many dystopian movies lately. Not every filmgoer is a doomer who wants The Running Man to be a reality so they can say "I told you so". It's a fair point although Netflix's #1 and #4 films of the second half of last ...

Re: Tranny Tackles the Cinema: The Films of 5/24

I'm not convinced Charlize Theron has star power. I do think Tom Hardy does, which probably helped Fury Road. Apparently Furiosa isn't appealing to women, or a younger audience, so it's essentially a one-quadrant film, hence this disasterous result. And maybe a Mad Max film without Mad Max wasn't th...

Re: Tranny Tackles the Cinema: The Films of 5/24

I think the buzz about Garfield has been dropping recently. It's being seen less as an essential family film and more of a filler until the emotions and the minions dominate. I think $100m feels about right by the summer's end.

Re: 2024 Festivals/Awards Thread

It's the only film in the fest that has been getting solely positive reviews.

Even The Substance got some poor/average ones in the end (though given Gerwig is head of the jury, I could see her going for satirical body-horror).

Re: The Latest Date Changes 2: The New Batch

That's a relief. Criterion had to let a bunch of staff go a while back, so glad it has a few more years left.

Re: 2024 Festivals/Awards Thread

Early reviews for The Substance are overwhelmingly positive-with many stating that it's an instant body horror classic and features a triumphant comeback performance from Demi Moore. Could very well end in the mix for the Palm. I'm a little surprised. I found her first move, Revenge, to be superfic...

That's bad for IF. But decent for The Strangers.
