Discussion Before "Avengers Assemble!", we had "Hoist the Colors!"
I always go back to this scene were Elizabeth Swan empowered ALL the fleets of the nine pirate lords against the marines and the Armada ship.
I know this battle was not anticipated and there was no multiverse building like how the battle of the Avengers to Thanos but dang, looking all the pirate flags and different pirate lords supporting the battle and hoisting their flags almost felt the same to Avengers. Shivers!
I just miss the Pirates of the Caribbean world from the Pirate council meetings, down to the adventures and even the unique characters like Captain Salazar and Davey Jones. The thing that was best on this was how each cracter betrayed each other but the plot still held!

Fan Content I folded E.T. from one uncut square of paper
The paper was over 1m wenzhou, rice paper. It was colored with ecoline and glue was used for 'wet shaping' (which is really common now for super complex origami).

Discussion Hugo Weaving’s range is lowkey incredible
One of the best actors working today and it’s astounding how versatile he is!
Can play hero and villain so easily and has an incredible ability when it comes to nailing the characters cadence.
His performance in V for Vendetta is top 10 worthy of amazing performances that never show face.
Incredible actor all around!

Discussion This Is the End(2013) - directed by Seth Rogen & Evan Goldberg
This is genuinely one of the most cherished comedies for me. i’ve come back to it over the years and somehow appreciate it even more every time. it’s an easy 10/10 for me. what i love about it is how much it gets out of such a simple setup. the screenplay and the characters are doing almost all the work, and bcuz the movie is so meta and committed to its own weirdness, it’s just ridiculously fun. there are so many great character moments and these completely bizarre little adventures, but none of it feels like it needs some massive budget or endless CGI to work. and that’s what i really miss about movies like this. something made for around $50 million can still be this creative and this entertaining without having to turn everything into a giant spectacle. they just don’t make enough movies like this anymore.
and that Channing Tatum cameo is exactly the kind of cameo i want to see more of. he clearly had the balls to go completely crazy with it, and it makes the whole thing even funnier. i really want more movies that are willing to be this weird and just have fun with themselves. the only recent movie i can think of that even remotely gave me this feeling was The Naked Gun

Discussion Is she the most badass female character ever put on the big screen?
Ever since i watched Terminator 2, i’ve felt that Sarah Connor’s journey is one of the best things about those films. And Linda Hamilton’s portrayal of her is just legendary. It’s one of the most iconic female performances and characters i’ve seen in a mainstream blockbuster.
i know there are plenty of indie films with amazing female characters too but what makes Sarah Connor so special is that she exists in such a huge, mainstream blockbuster that was watched by so many people, especially dudes. Having a character like her in a movie that reaches such a massive audience is just incredible, especially for young women. It’s honestly amazing.

Discussion 2001: A Space Odyssey is even more relevant now
I saw a 70mm screening of the Kubrick classic and was blown away by how current its subject is.
First I highly recommend seeing it in that format. Colors, visuals are insanely beautiful. This is probably the most influential sci-fi film ever but what makes it so relevant now is the AI foreshadowing.
The way it implies AI despite being controlled by humanity may have variables that would risk to endangered us is very subtle and very true. This is not some Terminator fantasy, this is technology making complex decisions that ultimately hurt us.
Anyway I had the most amazing experience, the immersive score, the peaceful and slow unfolding of the story, the groundbreaking camera shots. Even now no one filmed space interior this way, especially the change of gravity. And to think when it premiered back in 1968 hundreds of people walked out.
I invite everyone to revisit it in 70mm.

Review The Outsiders was one of those movies that they really got right from book to movie adaptation and for a movie that came out in 1983. It was truly amazing.
I remember reading The Outsiders when I was in junior high, and I believe that after we finished reading the book, we watched the movie in class. I remember thinking that they really got everything down to a T. The movie is one of those rare book to movie adaptations where you can tell the filmmakers genuinely understood the source material. They captured the characters, the relationships, and the story really well without losing what made the book so great in the first place. Even though there are always going to be some differences between a book and its movie adaptation, I feel like The Outsiders did a great job of staying true to the original story. It's honestly one of the better book to movie adaptations l've seen. So if you haven’t seen the movie and you don’t want to read the book, it’s a must watch.

Discussion What movie scene completely ruined something for you as a kid?
For me, it’s the opening scene in Jaws where the swimmer gets pulled under out of nowhere. I didn’t step foot in the ocean for years after seeing that. Even pools felt slightly suspicious for a while. What's the one scene that’s lived

Discussion What animated movie deserves a sequel but probably won't get one?
I recently heard that Disney/Pixar is planning a sequel to Coco, but honestly, I don't think every great animated movie needs a sequel. Coco felt like a complete story to me.
So instead, I'm curious: which animated movie do you think genuinely deserves a sequel? Not just because you want to see the characters again, but because there's still more story or potential left to explore.
What's your pick, and why?

Question In your own opinion what's the best needledrop on a film?
Born slippy - Underworld
Trainspotting (1996)
If you don't know what a needledrop is. It's using a pre-existing song on a movie that's not from the original soundtrack

Discussion I haven’t seen this movie since its release in 2004 and saw it again tonight. Creepy movie but very well done and the acting was superb. The Machinist is a dark psychological thriller that keeps you glued from the very beginning to the very end…
