I read Pareidoliac's review only after seeing the film. Idk, I really liked it and didn't think of the feminist stuff until reading that review. To me, I interpreted it as historical accuracy when the men were belittling her and telling her to know her place. That's why I like Eggers, because of course it's surrealist in some ways and he takes some big creative leaps so it's not actually historically...
Alright, this one is gonna' need some explaining but in the future if I watch more Bollywood I won't add a preamble every time. But I loved this film, man. TL;DR It's Parent Trap + Love Me If You Dare. Only watch it if you think you might like a Bollywood film and enjoy cheesy 90's stuff. Made me like Pajeets even though I know that's as silly as thinking the average Japanese person even remotely...

I have noticed that a lot of writing about sex—not all, but a lot—is marked by a strange lacuna: it fails to mention that some people are simply born more attractive than others. Thick...
This is a kids show but it's like Shrek in the way that it has appealing aspects for adults to enjoy. Also lots of half naked people with perfect bodies so maybe not appropriate for young kids. Anyways, what makes this really cool is that it is unapologetically pro natal, pro human, anti Marxist, pro science, and neutral to nature. I noticed that every show or video game from Japan has very hippie...
I can't help but like Adam Sandler despite his background. He seems like a genuine guy, and I know they all do, but even with METOO and all the drama surrounding him there has been no big scandals that I know of. He's a closeted Republican apparently and there's stories about him being told by his NYU teacher to give up acting, and him not rubbing it in his face once he got big: https://www.unilad.com/film-and-tv/adam-sandler-professor-told-to-quit-acting-826536-20230314 Knowing...

Just rewatched it recently and it still holds up. I was gonna' say Scorsese doesn't disappoint but I googled his filmography and realized I haven't seen most. And there were a lot of titles that bombed or were hated by our milieu. Idk, I really liked "Silence" and this one as well. Unlike "The Big Short" it doesn't try to preach anti Capitalist stuff. And even skips over the technical jargon. The ending...

As always, I am super biased because I love this era of film. But by the end of the movie I was sold. At first, I figured it was just my usual cope watching, projecting my worldview onto things so that I can stomach Western media. (If you have watched the documentary "Hollywoodism" and know that Hollywood has always been pro outsider, subversive, secular, etc. you can't turn your brain off. The POZ...
Japan is famous for horrible overacting even in their dramas, but this was next level bad. It's intentional of course, but it just doesn't translate to Western sensibilities. Only hardcore weeaboos can enjoy such stuff. I still watched it to completion and see the value in it. But Asian humor is just so childish. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zyv4jGWEzxY Although, I know British people claim Americans...
If you like musicals it was good. Guess I'm fruity enough to enjoy musicals but not gay enough to be a snob about them. I remember enjoying the live action version of "Les Miserables" because I had no frame of reference. It's the only version I saw so I liked it. To me, saying "the broadway play was better" is like saying "the book was better." Yeah, no sh*t. When isn't the book better? I think "Fight...
Hooligan anime from the Golden era of anime. (80's - 90's) Slapstick and goofy. Will add it to the palate cleansers list. Only for people who already like anime, stuff like "Urusei Yatsura" or "Ranma 1/2"
