@mfreckelton99@StevenWallaby the movie that's frequently comedic, with an entire segment that's pretty much just a comedy film, ends in a funny way after it's already fully veered into full on comedic territory half an hour earlier? so fricking insane!!!! cregger is such a frickinh genius
@StevenWallaby people acting as if Cregger is prime-Takashi Miike or something, he literally makes comedies, it's not a "sudden comic energy", it's literally the entire movie!
@neonhedonics so fricking true. it would be so much better if the main character kept saying "fuck fuck oh fuuuck shit soo that just happened? my life's like a fricking video game" throughout the whole thing
@chumicerow@soonrightaway average anti-PWSA behavior, those movies are living rent-free in their head and they just can't fathom others having an opinion differing from theirs, while constantly needing to show how superior they are
guy who hates that Jeanne Dielman was voted number 1 at the Sight and Sound poll, not because it's directed by a woman, but because Chantal Akerman was a zionist
@grimesgoth@angelcartel these movies have a huge and strong cult following and are central to one of the most important movements within film criticism this century. but sure. they aren't beloved βοΈ
@grimesgoth@angelcartel i'm talking about the online critic circles. some of the biggest names on letterboxd were praising the last two movies while they were coming out. i'm not talking redditors and youtube "critics". and even the casual watchers had to enjoy them, otherwise they wouldn't make 6 of'em
