Happy Memorial Day!

Why not celebrate the 49th anniversary of the 1st #StarWars movie by watching me take all the fun out of the new one?

One week on from The Mandalorian and Grogu — has your opinion of the film changed? 🩶💚

What did you think?

@themancalorians @szar_art @starwars @themandalorian Still don't like it very much, but some of my disappointment has faded. Part of me is a little curious to see it again, maybe in 3D this time.

[TL;DR Reviews @TLDR_MovRev]

Watched #Backrooms & honestly, this is pure atmosphere horror. It lives and dies on its vibes. Deeply unsettling, beautifully designed, and sticks with you long after you leave. Narrative is a bit thin, but the dread is constant. 4/5 ⭐️

@GiteshPandya I've seen people comparing Backrooms and Obsession, but I have no idea what the latter is about. Now that I've seen Backrooms, I guess Obsession is next!

[The Media Monologue @MonologueMedia]

@KaijusBlast I walked out absolutely loving it, but I acknowledge that some of it may be hype over the parts of the movie that really worked. And I do get the criticisms, especially of the third act, but overall I had a really good time and want to see it again.

[Rickyy @KaijusBlast]

Finally saw The Backrooms. It was pretty good — nailed the unsettling vibe and tension in places — but it didn’t blow my mind like I hoped. Still recommend if you love the original concept. #Backrooms

@MrNegative87 I had a really good time with it. I do understand the criticisms, but it wasn't enough to derail the movie for me. Hope you enjoy!

[The Media Monologue @MonologueMedia]

After sleeping on the #Backrooms movie, I do see why some people didn't like the third act and even felt that it ruined the movie. Maybe if it had been more like the first two acts, it would have landed better. Still, I really enjoyed Backrooms overall and want to see it again.

Had a chance to see the new #Backrooms movie and absolutely loved it! A fantastic adaptation of the web series that translates surprisingly well to the big screen. I especially recommend it if you like science fiction horror and psychological thrillers.

[The Media Monologue @MonologueMedia]

@GeoZaroff Agreed, the soundtrack was incredible!

[The Media Monologue @MonologueMedia]

@StanTheManx3 Honestly if the whole thing was nothing but him exploring more of the Backrooms I still would have enjoyed it.

Sat for my second screening of Mando & Gogurt tonight. Multiple people were scrolling at FULL BRIGHTNESS & having conversations throughout.

It’s a movie theater, people, not your living room. Have some respect for the film & others watching with you. #TheMandalorianandGrogu

[The Media Monologue @MonologueMedia]

@vividlittlevox Why even pay money and go out to a theater if they're not going to pay attention?

[The Media Monologue @MonologueMedia]

@fulcrumlives327 It still ended up feeling like that. The action and visuals are also far below what Star Wars is capable of on the big screen.

[The Media Monologue @MonologueMedia]

@BillboyJAM I recommend giving the show a chance. The first season especially is pretty great.

Some thoughts about #TheMandalorianAndGrogu

-The first 20-25minutes were so fun to watch. The action, the themes... Reminiscent of S1.

-The Top Gun homage on the New Republic air base with opening credit styles... Perfection straight away I was like this is actually amazing.

@keldorjedii This scene communicates more about Din's character without words than anything in the movie.
