Early ,'Objects In Space'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
So I just got back from Power Rangers at the dollar cinema and....I'm confused. That was a fun action movie with good pacing, some characters I liked spending time with, and some teen drama that never made me cringe. Why was everyone so down on this movie?
(I should specify - not everyone here, just the reaction in general)
The preview for Power Rangers made me want to see it, but I never got around to it. Maybe I'll try to catch it.
I was randomly channel-surfing and came across the final few scenes of Deathly Hallows part 1 on Freeform. Annnnd Dobby's dead and now I'm bawling. Goddammit.
I saw It Follows years ago and I still think about it. I shouldn't watch horror movies. Even the bad ones get to me. It Follows was good though. I thought, someone heard about pursuit predators and ran with the idea to a very scary place.
One thing that always bothered me about Dobby's death: we constantly see that folks in the wizarding world use magic for everything all the time, even the most mundane tasks. So why would Bellatrix decide to devote time to learning how to throw knives? It's a pretty rare skill for people who can't just kill someone with a word and a flick of the wrist.
Maybe it's not something other wizards are very good at defending themselves against?
Time to kill in Azkaban?
Time to kill in Azkaban?
Time being particularly vulnerable to throwing knives.
Just saw The Big Sick and it was wonderful. Just lovely and smart and warm-hearted.
Seconded. I watched it as a long-distance movie date and it was just perfect.
