Super Sweet Movie Discussion Thread

As for the movie, as I watched it I said, this will actually end up being pretty good or pretty bad. My money was on the latter and I was right. It had potential but I knew the writers and producers didn't have what it takes to deliver.

It's like the writers start telling a story, and it's just compelling enough to say, "OK, let's see where this goes", but they don't really know where it's going and they're really not very good story tellers to begin with. As a result, they don't know how to tie it up, so they just end it. It's terrible, but that's filmmaking these days. They need to have an outcome in mind and work the story back from there.

I've seen far worse movies this year (ie Killers Of The Flower Moon), but I can't recommend this one either.

That said, there were some impressive bunkers...even stocked with some Aunt Jemima!

Civil War film looks woke. The protagonists seem to be a bunch of "journalists" . Plus ol Ronny Swanson (Keith Oberman) is cross dressing weirdo. Man has an impressive woodshop though. Still liberal.

Lol... wonder where all the crime is coming from. Cause when you hear about Minnesota and crime it's mainly the Somali community and inner city gangs.

That's exactly where it's coming from. There are no real mysteries here...just real idiots unwilling to recognize reality.

Honestly, I'm still operating under the assumption that everyone assumes I'm a homophobic, tinfoil hat wearing, super racist, rabbit person.

Btw, you seen the new season of Reacher?

Desire to know more about bunkers and Aunt Jemima. Cause if civil war hits, I'm gonna invest in guns, maple syrup, and yoga pant wearing Amazonian Canadian gals to slather Auntie Mima's syrup on! WoooT!

Family plan was fun to watch.

In the words of @AWP ....I'd give it 4 out of 5 dirty diapers.

It has Michelle Monaghan and Maggie Q...do you really need other reasons to watch it?

Last Christmas, watched with my wife. The plot twist got me to tear up.

Frozen, with the nephew. Watched it once before and completely forgot the evil prince dude.

I loved Glass Onion- I was a huge fan of Knives Out too. Glass Onion was awesome!

I just watched Knives Out and really enjoyed it.

I was not expecting this but it's great to see Eddie Murphy back at it.

His new Christmas movie was meh.

Rebel Moon, how much did Netflix spend on this? Reminds me of a bunch direct to video scifi bullshits.

Next goal wins, with Michael Fassbender, nice little feel good movie, based on a true story of the American Samoa football team, once beaten 31-0 by Australia.

I got about 10 minutes in and thought the production seemed cheap as well. It couldn’t hold my interest so I turned it off.

 

[Kraut783]

Yep, such disappointment

Have you seen The Glass Onion? It's the next one in the Daniel Craig whodunit franchise. Not quite as good as Knives Out...but entertaining nonetheless.

After seeing Fassbender in Inglorious Basterds, Prometheus, Alien Covenant and MacBeth I'm a dedicated fan. Plus he drives the European Le Mans series.

Neg....but I've been looking for it since I saw alot of you recommended it. I'll keep looking and update. I really like the all star cast they put together...especially the Poker Face girl.

The Sound Of Freedom is on Amazon Prime. It's one of the better films I've seen in a long time. Definitely stomach churning at times.

 

[Muppet]

Oh, this looks good.

Old mate looked familiar. He was one of the deputies on Longmire.
