Blue would make the perfect plushie and I think Netflix knows that but I think I don’t care because they finally did good with this one
big balloon blood monkey just want fist bump :pensive:
scary stories really does wonders in making all people equals in that the pale woman could justifiably haunt anyones nightmares, and I admire it for that :relieved:
traded the 80’s flair and (some) homoeroticism for miles teller and the coolest, most heart-racing action sequence I’ve ever seen
I’ll take it.
Elizabeth Olsen was the best thing about this movie… which maybe doesn’t say much considering I violently cringed both when the “Illuminati” was introduced and John Krasinski showed up for.. some reason.
I don’t think I’ve ever felt that amount of sheer uncomfort-turned-satisfaction in my life, and I don’t know if I ever will again.
that surrealist ballet piece was genuinely one of the most poignant and compelling pieces of art I’ve ever seen
I honestly think I was like in shock when I first saw this because oh my god it is so sad
like, Andrew Garfield still stands as my favorite iteration but holy shit does Tom Holland know how to make a bitch sob
anyways, the experience of watching this very soon after watching both the Raimi and Webb versions is so much better than going in cold. the emotional weight of Garfield catching MJ is just gorgeous and the Maguire/Doc Ock mini-reunion is :asterisk_symbol:chefs kiss:asterisk_symbol:
I’m really glad Marvel decided to take such a ballsy turn with the ending and am honestly so incredibly excited to see where they decide to take it (and praying that they don’t go down the Fantastic Beasts route)
logically I know that there are many things wrong with this movie (and the series as a whole). emotionally, however, Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone are the only things keeping me afloat. I don’t think a superhero movie has ever made me cry more than this one.
therefore, my brain says no but my heart says yes
this is a very nice story and I like it a lot :)
Um, hell yeah? Now, this rendition is obviously missing some of the heart and campy nature of the Raimi series, which I can see being a setback. But it absolutely makes up for that in acting and action and just general excitement.
Andrew Garfield plays probably my perfect version of Spider-Man. There were some scenes where I could feel the witty and cocky guy from the animated series and that’s just so good to me.
there is no audience this movie isn’t for
no matter how much money they spend, marvel can never beat the El Train sequence.
never.
the pure camp that defined this era of humanity is just absolutely inspiring
look out- hooo, here comes the spider man
I’m not too sure what just happened but:
Abigail is the baddest bitch
Olivia Colman can do no wrong
Rich people are fucking weird
my heart likes this considerably more than my brain does; that being said, this movie is completely unhinged in all of the good ways
the most visually satisfying work I have ever seen bar none.
we’re talking about Léa Seydoux, right?
This was a very good 90 minute movie! Nothing else after the 90 minutes folks, nothing at all…
I think if I ever walk into a supermarket and see some wild animals dancing, I’ll just pass away…
(in a good way)
I don’t think I’ve ever literally been on the edge of my seat for like 3/4 of a movie before. I may have lost about 20% of my hearing-
but it was totally worth it
it’s the fact that I’ve never cried that hard in my life for me
no cause when did cartoon saloon open up my brain to find the perfect combination of things to put in a movie? i would sue for breach of privacy, but it’s so pretty
I did enjoy this movie. however, some parts worked much better than others. I would say my favorite aspect is the character manipulation and development through the film. carey mulligan is spectacular and I can’t say anything more about bo burnham that someone else hasn’t said. I knew going into this that he’d be an asshole, and he still roped me in with that bicycle line. damn you, lanky brunettes!
that being said, the ending absolutely left something to be desired. as others have already mentioned much more eloquently than I can, cassie’s death and subsequent “revenge” felt more like a cheap audience emotion-grab than a fitting resolution. I truly think the film’s message would have been communicated so much better if the posthumous “revenge” was left out, because it really makes the storyline feel… cheapened. it reminds me of the ever-popular “bury your gays” trope of the 20-teens ish, except instead of LGBT+ members, it’s victims of sexual assault who seek justice.
overall, I commend emerald for what she attempted, but I’d like to see a piece with a bit more sensitivity and consideration in the future.
I do not care what anyone says, this movie is my childhood, therefore it is spectacular. no ifs, ands, or buts.
holy moley, this movie is gorgeous. I like to think about what films like Luca could have been if they had the same passion and story as this one… maybe one day again.
also somehow more greatly reaffirmed my propensity towards lanky brunettes with glasses. it can’t be helped.
BOW WOW :star_struck::crazy_face: delish :smirk:
this is by far one of the best marvel films I’ve seen in a hot second (I’m lookin at you black widow). the martial arts choreography is just :asterisk_symbol:chefs kiss:asterisk_symbol: especially when it comes to the air-bending choreo. just gorgeous. awkwafina gave a much better performance than I expected, which is always a nice feeling, especially in conjunction with simu liu. I also thoroughly appreciated the opposing forces between fala chen and tony leung as the parents and how dynamic leung’s villain became.
overall a super, super solid film by marvel (that I would not mind being separate from the mcu :D)
this is definitely the most gorgeous horror film I’ve ever seen (ignoring the somewhat interesting cgi). like other have said, I think the plot and characters should have been fleshed out a bit more, just because the ending felt like being pulled in a lot of different directions at once.
this is the first of peele’s I’ve seen so far and I’ll just go with… pretty good!
it feels like there’s 10 different story arcs, but I think I liked them! the day I stop loving ryan reynolds is the day I’d like someone to destroy my servers please and thank you
Gunn really took the “your mom” jokes to a new level
this movie is ridiculous and I love it
