@thepicdept I think its hilarious u kids talking about sophia coppium. u wouldnt say this stuff to her at lan, shes jacked. not only that but she wears the freshest clothes, eats at the chillest restaurants and hangs out with the hottest dudes. yall are pathetic lol

[LurkasaurusRex @LurkasaurusRex]

@theoceanblooms In theater I actually thought it was kinda cool that they had the protagonist accidentally kill an iconic character and then 3 minutes later they were like "jk that didn't happen" lol

@CreepPhone @offbeatorbit Lol, I grew up in a town called Salisbury which is in a county called Wicomico, which is right next to Worcester county. You would not believe how many different ways I've heard out-of-towners pronounce those words

I hate to say it, but I did not care for Renate Reinsve's performance in Backrooms. I'm not looking for a Shelley Duvall freakout, but I am looking for some of that barely-contained panic behind the eyes, and I didn't see it at all. Looked like she was just reading lines.

@oldfriend99 If you're gonna have a character say "if you strike me down I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine" then you need to have them do something really cool after they get struck down

@NewNordlinger @Phantom_Canine I'm not saying everything is peachy but this might be a slight exaggeration haha

[LurkasaurusRex @LurkasaurusRex]

@Cutlaska Sorry can you explain this? I didn't get the reference but I would like to!

@brndxix It's hard to compare because the World Cup doesn't have forced parity like the NFL. There are a handful of teams that are physically capable of winning the World Cup, and the US isn't one of them. That said, they're likely to put up a respectable showing.

So uhhh...Panthers?

Was discussing this with a friend, but with Backrooms specifically, maybe a spoiler but this is just a take...something terrifying about a shared consciousness that's building and expanding, a mimicry of our reality but it's totally jumbled and fragmented, not unlike the internet

[LurkasaurusRex @LurkasaurusRex]

@offbeatorbit Streets won't let him forget this #traitor

[LurkasaurusRex @LurkasaurusRex]

Backrooms is a little clumsy at times but damn if it isn't really interesting. One of the first movies I've seen that really digs into the Gen-Z psyche. It expresses their frustrations in a primal sort of way that a lot of people will connect to even if they don't know why

[Rory Blank @BoneJail]

I keep thinking about Backrooms, that it’s a movie made by someone young now, about people being trapped in and forced to wander and sift through the banal and garish detritus of the late 20th century, warped and monstrous things being built from flimsy memories of that era

[LurkasaurusRex @LurkasaurusRex]

*SPOILERS*

The scene at the end where the scientist guy is breathlessly talking about how this discovery will change the world, and also they don't really understand it and can't control it, and also she's probably not allowed to leave...yeah

[LurkasaurusRex @LurkasaurusRex]

Seemed obvious to me that he was trying to tap into what's gross and creepy about AI generated images and it's driving me crazy that most people aren't reading it that way. The letters on the signs at the end were the filmmaker looking at the camera and saying "This is about AI"

[DiscussingFilm @DiscussingFilm]

‘BACKROOMS’ director Kane Parsons says he would get “no enjoyment” out of using generative AI on any project — “It defeats the purpose entirely for me.”

“I think I'm in the same boat as most well-adjusted people. If I could snap my fingers and make generative Al disappear forever, I probably would.”

@randygdub I once thought it would be a good idea to watch this movie while stoned out of my mind. It was not.

there’s no male equivalent of the thing where a girl posts a selfie and a bunch of other girls compliment her

@latkedelrey Nutrition shakes like Ensure and Boost have basically kept me alive for months at a time when I was barely eating

@ghoshtnihari You better have washed that egg real good lol

[LurkasaurusRex @LurkasaurusRex]

Religious trauma is crazy because I just caught myself fantasizing about being a camp counselor at the Christian summer camp that traumatized me as a kid. But, like, being chill about it. Why would I do that
