@preztoRL@Jonmad@Sturgeons_Law I think what they were trying to say is the films that were top from when the site launched are more or less the same. It’s frozen in amber from the culture it originated from, similar to how Shawshank/Godfather/Dark Knight have firmly sat at the top of IMDB for 2 decades.
Dunkirk (still a great movie btw) feels so wrong placed against the other three here.
Nolan’s sensibilities still carry over in full force, but the creative transition he made with Tenet (Göransson/Lame) is distinct enough a change to put them in a league of their own.
Arguing with Walsh is like winning chess against a cockroach by stomping on it, but the original text is even more non-linear, Nolan actually streamlines it for the theatrical medium.
A 100% faithful Odyssey adaptation would have 3-5 more guys recounting the same story beats.
Nolan's obsessions with the non-linear storytelling gimmick really hurts this film. It jumps around so much, and spends so little time on any one particular moment or scene, that you never really feel like Odysseus is on an epic journey spanning many years. When he makes it home, you never feel like he's been gone for 20 years. The film does not capture the grandeur and scope of the original epic. That's why it feels rushed and too long simultaneously. The movie comes off like a rough draft. Nolan was searching for the actual story but never quite found it.
Genuine argument THAT reaction above all should disqualify Argentinia from the next tournament if we’re being honest. Absolutely disgusting, sums their strategy up.
Will be my second-highest ever lasting impression of Neymar…
…the highest being when a 15-year old girl absolutely lost her shit in the cinema when he showed up at the start of XxX: The Return of Xander Cage.
Look, it’s honesty unfair to compare ANY movie to Fury Road, but Supergirl essentially demands you to compare itself to it without commiseration. There’s even one particular scene which is near-directly ripped from it, lacking any of the pathos and desperately diegetic in nature.
Unlike SUPERGIRL, FURY ROAD is a movie which encounters the concept of sex slavery as a horrific evil worth untold sacrifices to stops, moving the amoral into action. AND the movie has time for a little romance, some good vibes, a little bit of love and affection.

In case you're wondering, yes we did get the theatre scene in the CAPE FEAR show but I bet you a good 20 bucks you would have never guessed what movie is playing
