I once saw someone propose that he probably just made them with phantom membranes or something since the movie plays very fast and loose with how crafting works
This is because Steve has already killed the ender dragon and runs a farm of warden slaves
He used /give
And yet the movie predicted that Minecraft will have chicken jockeying before it appeared in the game, so they probably just shot the movie inside a Minecraft version from the future
Will you choose a horror movie with blood and gore or will you go the smooth route with a classic romcom 🤔
I honestly think Cyn would like either violent gore movies or children's movies
Then I would choose scary movie
Cyn we aren’t watching a movie tonight. Have you heard of, Attack on Titan?
Predator 1987
Hell ya!

It'd be really cool to see, don't get me wrong. But I think it would feel a little out of place, especially if there is Velociraptors in the same movie as it. It'd just be a little odd having a scientifically accurate and almost completely feathered raptor running around with the OG and badass yet very very very naked Velociraptors that are mainly based on what we thought they looked like decades ago.
They already did this with the pyroraptor lmao
The Pyroraptor isn't accurate just because it has feathers.
oh wait they already did that
But they already did this in Dominion, right? Two completely naked Dromaeosaurids appear and then they show a fully feathered Pyroraptor.
Be funny if they also got a size increase, if Velociraptors got 3-4 times size increase in mahince the frog DNA makes Utah gigantic and now packs of large T. rex size hunters
Same model, but with patterning closer to the JP3 or rebirth raptors, would be top tier. Also to set them apart, make them mimic human calls for help
I'm surprised mimicking humans hasn't been done yet. The closest we got was that parrot in JP3, but it didn't even say anything.

Beloved design
Had Utahraptor appeared on the movies before the game it would've had pronated wrists and be all scales lol. However if it appeared in the movies with a frontier design it would've been given a "gimmick" like the Pyroraptor and his penguin swim
Hi, need help finding this movie that was usually on the syfy channel about convicts renovating an abandoned building while living there and they get picked off one by one by an evil entity.
It was not the movie prison from 1987
It was not the movie session 9 from 2001
Any help is appreciated
Is it Death Row (2006)? If not, maybe House of 9 (2005)?
Both look interesting, but it’s neither of those
Furnace (2007) ?
Interesting movie I might watch it but no, it’s not
Sounds like Villmark Asylum (2015)
Do you know roughly the decade? 70's 80's 90's 00's?
Early to mid 2000s
Dam it, was almost sure it was The Evil (1978) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0077524/?ref_=ext_shr_lnk

Ok
Well, OP is definitely very right. It's a shitty casting decision. And even notwithstanding his conduct in real life (if for some reason you don't care about that), he was basically annoying and a bit shit in 2049. He's basically annoying and a bit shit in anything.
Yeah, he's rough to watch in anything. It's a little puzzling why he keeps getting cast.
Why is this a discussion on a subreddit about movie soundtracks again?
You’re more twisted up than a pretzel aren’t you?

I'm so excited for NIN composing! I'm seeing them next Friday so I'm hoping there's at least a taste of what they're going to put out for the film. But yeah not looking forward to seeing Jared Leto's face 🤢
If you didn't question about your life after watching the movies then you didn't understand the movie.
If it was ahead of its time, people wouldn’t have even watched it, and it would have gone bonkers at the box office. All I can say is that it’s still relevant today
Most people just wanted to get entertained and the movie entertained them so they watched but only few people back then really understood the movie.
Shake world huh? It would have been full of controversies and feminist strikes all over India 🤣
That's exactly what I meant. It will shake the feminists, politicians all over the world.
The dialouge "10 ಸಾವಿರ ರುಪಾಯಿ ಸಾಲ ಮಾಡಿ ಅದ್ರು ಅವಳ್ ಮುಕುಡ್ ಮೇಲ್ ಬಿಸಾಕ್ತೀನಿ ಇವತ್ ನೈಟ್ ನಂಗೆ ಅವಳು ಬೇಕು" is enought to shake the world
Even that aunty scene 😂...pacca theatres ge kall hoditare ..
You don't see a problem with that dialogue? The privilege of not being harassed on the streets.
It was ahead on narcissism, nihilism thinking but it was incoherent and utterly fed into incel energy.
Woah didn't know this was an incel sub too
The movie explores narcissism as well.
"NANU" took narcissism to extreme level
Even the songs dude. Just spend some time understanding the lyrics of Uppigintha ruchi. You'll understand how well it's written.
It definitely was way ahead of its time.
Ahead of time in the sense the concept upendra tried to tell us had limited exposure or knowledge. For example psychology, narcissism, dark nature of humans etcs.
Another example is terminator movies it exploring the concept of AI, robots taking over the world when people barely knew about AI and human looking robots
Seven is the greatest movie he'll have been associated with.
It’s probably the best noir film ever made
Watching it again, it looks like it was made in the last few years, not 30 years ago
Best movie ever. Did we just become best friends??
The line hits hard. And I get it. I’m just not into it.
The scene when Tristan returns home and his father walks out after suffering a stroke broke me.
He was the rock they broke themselves against.
“Am Happy”

I’m not even a baseball fan but that movie hits all the right spots.
Infinitely re watchable for me
"What's wrong with this one?"
"O nothing Tommy, it's tip top. I'm just not sure about the color".
kills me everytime
“My brother stood before us, not on a bank of the Big Blackfoot River, but suspended above the earth, free from all its laws, like a work of art. And I knew just as surely and just as clearly, that life is not a work of art, and that the moment could not last.”
Stop giving superhero movies to people who do superhero deconstructions. First Synder then Trank.
If josh wanted to make another superhero movie it should have been something original like chronicle. It would have been fantastic.

...You like Cosmonaut Variety Hour, don't you Squidward?
No spoilers. I saw about 300,000 reviews of this movie on this sub, thinking it was all hype and promotion…
And here I am. Sinners was a breath of fresh air that I needed to reignite my faith in the entertainment industry. Much like, The Substance, Sinners was a unique blend of horror, drama, and art.
I really enjoyed this movie. Great script, great acting, and just an overall outstanding movie. I would highly recommend it.
And sorry for being the 300,001st person to write a positive review. It really is a solid movie. (And like months late to the party) 👍 👍
I felt this 100,000%. I love vampires, I’ve consistently felt let down by the latest trend in Black horror, I was fully prepared to HATE this movie. Loved every second.
And there were the familiar vamp tropes, but it did feel like a great blend of drama elements as well. Probably up there (for me) with Bram Stoker’s Dracula in terms of movie quality.
Edit. Tropes, but the rest of the story had me questioning if they were the bad guys or just the other sides of the same coin (with humans)…after all, they were all Sinners
I think that’s what this prologue was getting after
There are parts of this movie that would've been straight up corny in other peoples hands but I LOVED IT.
The music/dance sequence traveling up through the rising embers put me in tears.
I saw it in full IMAX.
I love vampires but was more than a bit worried when I heard about the "musical" aspect of this. This film truly blew me away. Smart heros, great set up, good gore effects, and fucking fantastic music. I can't hold out hope that the Academy will do the right thing and give Michael B. Jordan an Oscar for this movie, but he sure as hell deserves it.
Agreed. Enjoyed it and would rewatch it but the absolute CRAZE that followed was just not reflective of how good the movie actually was. Even still I’d probably say it’s the sorta blockbuster we should strive for.. I’ll take another dozen Sinners and 28 Years Later type blockbusters that’re thematically heavy and divisive than another Marvel blockbuster ATP.
There should have been some sort of musical/spiritual showdown between Remmick and Preacher Boy and instead they went with an action movie Avenger's assemble shoot 'em up with Michael B. Jordan.
Remmick needed to connect with his past, and Sammie could literally connect the past and the future. All of the pieces were there. All of the themes and music and emotions and everything was in place and the movie turned on the most banal part of the story.
Preacher Boy should have been able to "satisfy" Remmick's insatiableness in some way, he was constantly offering himself throughout the back half of the movie. Either by defeating him, maybe even accepting "the devil" in some way to his father's greatest fears.
Either way, the first 2/3rds were great, but were heading towards a different story than the last third showed.
Ive seen soooooooo many horror movies many many times lol so if that counts as a veteran then ill take it. I can agree with your statement, started strong, dragged LIKE CRAZY, then me and my wife could barely finish it.
Yup. It was “meh” but we are so starved for interesting horror movies that it gets overrated. And not forgetting the blatant ripoff it is of From Dusk til Dawn.
Yeah that was also my feeling. I wanted to see the gang successfully pull through, and see success with their barn blues club. Still enjoyed the movie but didn't like the ending.
Yeah there are a few of us - I thought it was well made but deficient in characters and plot. I do appreciate that it was different.
Yeah the characters had more depth in dusk till dawn, sinners just felt manufactured, like it was ai written lol.
🤮 people actually believe Dusk till Dawn was good lmfao
Tarantino himself knew that was a stinker. It's why he didnt direct it. It's also why he filmed a documentary during the movie as a backup plan. The script literally reads like a 12 year old wrote it and it has all the depth of that level of writing. It's also shot like hot garbage in comparison to Sinners and its not even remotely close. That ugly aged early 2000s CGI. The cringe ass "we got p***y" intro. Clooney's terrible tribal tattoo. The openly atrocious acting despite an all star cast. The complete lack of dramatic impact of anything that happens. Why someone would hold this up as a standard, let alone use it to dismiss a clearly technically and thematically superior piece of cinema is beyond me.
But if you wanted to get really technical, Dusk till Dawn is a rip off of Assault on Precinct 13 which is itself a ripoff of Rio Bravo. The entire idea that anyone stole ideas from anyone is extremely moot.
The movie was just okay for me until the epilogue happened. That's when I realized If you take out the whole vampires thing, it's pretty much the biopic of a musician who chose to follow his dreams after a life-changing experience. And Ryan Coogler nailing it with the emotional flashbacks at that moment made me understand what the film was really about. Really enjoyed the songs and the dancing but everything that happened 3/4 of the way in felt too rushed. Also Sammie playing after the credits was a nice nod to the music biopic genre
I just finished watching this film an hour ago and it was 100% not what I expected at all but I think it was absolutely brilliant. The ending made me appreciate the journey Sammie went on even more.
Loved it! Went in blind and at the beginning I was wondering where the hell was the horror until it started.
To me it was a 30's version of From Dusk til Dawn.
Coogler was apparently inspired by Dusk til Dawn and also The Faculty!
A criticism I had of the film - from a Horror fan perspective - was that it would’ve been more effective to have the mystery slowly unravel as to the true nature of the “afflicted.” I loved the scenes with the musicians first interacting with smoke/stack, but it’s somewhat undercut by the fact the audience knows what threat they pose. I think it would’ve been far more menacing to have had them seem charming but a bit ‘off’ and then played out the dilemma about letting them in with the audience being brought along on that ride with the characters. I also thought it undercut the mystery further to have it straight up called out that these are vampires and then kick in the usual tropes about how to kill them which happened within a good minute or so.
I really feel like there was some interest on the part of the director of just having a movie about the twins for as long as possible I'm turning it into some sort of crime epic. What a waste of great presence and chemistry. It really seems they had to reel in Michael b Jordans role to make the film work as horror. Though it started slow,I still feel like there was so much that was alluded to,but still wanted more. Btw if you are a movie fan and the Irish folk song sounded familiar it was at also the end of Sherlock Holmes:game of Shadows.
In that era white people are a violent threat, vampires or not. There was no way they could have been played as innocents. The suspense is that they were known to be dangerous but not exactly how dangerous.
I understand that. I am not suggesting they should’ve been played as innocents throughout the film. I am suggesting that our protagonists should have uncovered the “vampiric” nature of the stranger’s alongside rather than after the audience. That still allows for justified suspicions about letting the strangers in, but adds greater suspense and would hit twice as hard when we realise the true magnitude of what they’ve done rather than knowing exactly how it’s going to play out. Like I said, preference from a horror fan perspective.
It’s a fair point that a deliberate labelling of the strangers as vampires makes very obvious that they aren’t the real threat in the Jim Crow era. I suppose I already assumed that this would be obvious for any non-native supernatural threat, though. So as a viewer I was hoping for a little more mystery.
It’s a horror film but it’s unconventional, a bit like The Witch. Huge setup, relatively small payoff, and more about the journey rather than the destination! It had elements of a ton of genres which I can see putting off a lot of people. I loved it though, I just appreciate someone trying something new with quite a bloated genre.
disagree that the witch had a small payoff
For clarification (sorry for mincing what I said), I meant the witch was unconventional by modern standards. The Witch is my favourite horror film - and by Jesus I’ve seen enough horror to last me a lifetime.
The witch and the is movie aren’t even close to the same as far as payoff. The hell you talking about lol
I liked the beginning and the music, but the stuff was not my cup of tea.
