Is my favorite film of all time losing it's hold on me?
If it is, I have no idea how to deal with that. I got home from my screening of Moonrise Kingdom (I saw it in a theater for the first time in 5 years) and just broke down into full ugly tears. I can't accept that my tastes may be changing, I can't accept that I'm changing, I just want to be a kid.
Growing up. How does…
I liked Glass.
I think in many ways it has career best moments for multiple people involved, mainly James McAvoy and Samuel L. Jackson. Its themes are inspiring, and the way the movie dissects the purpose of superheroes in our culture is probably the best way that idea has been handled since Spider-Man 2. In a lot of ways, the flaws it has help add to the humanity of the movie as a whole, which is its greatest strength.
But…
Liked this a lot more this time around! During my first watch I thought it was just a well made, straight forward thriller, but watching it again I couldn't ignore the critiques of religion going on here? Which I really didn't expect going in, but the whole idea of The Horde using their beliefs to take over Kevin's body and how that faith drives them to do awful things is really fascinating. This universe seems obsessed with the idea of…
Wow.
WOW.
Three Billboards, Outside Ebbing, Missouri is the biggest waste of talented actors on a terrible (and I mean TERRIBLE. We'll get there soon) script since the fucking Star Wars prequels. To say this boringly shot dumpster fire of a film is undeserving of the recognition it's getting would be an understatement; for proper justice, they should go back and replace all the footage of this winning with videos of Christopher Plummer.
I understand, first off. To the people…
