Re: Rogue One Critical Reception (and How to Use RottenTomatoes)

Any method of critical evaluation that determines the most recent Stars Wars product to be among the best movies of the year has been corrupted from any fidelity to genuine aesthetic judgment. I'm not sure if you'd actually like the film, but Rogue One is different than other Star Wars movies in se...

Movies where Nazis die in hilarious and amusing ways.

This is the mood I'm in. I need recommendations. I don't care if the movie is serious or tongue in cheek, so it's a pretty open-ended request. Nazi exploitation, WW2 dramas, black comedies - it's all good, I'll accept anything.

In my opinion, knowledge of how the scene was created can rightfully change a viewer's perception of the scene itself; this is something I don't find all that controversial when it comes to art. For me, movies don't exist in a vacuum, intent matters, context matters, and often it's very difficult to...

‘Last Tango in Paris’: Director Bernardo Bertolucci Says Infamous Rape Scene Was Not Consensual

Welp, Bertolucci is a piece of shit and The Last Tango in Paris is as rapey as you were led to believe. And by that I mean, the infamous sex scene on screen was not consensual at all: m I've always considered the movie's sexual politics to be pathetic and unpleasant but this admission takes my opini...

Are you sure you're not referring to Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign?

Re: Where do you watch movies?

Check your private messages.

Also,

For "arthouse" type movies, I'd recommend: https://mubi.com/showing . It doesn't have a library, but rotates through 30 films every 30 days. Each day a new film is available and an older film is removed from the list.

For horror movies, this looks cool: https://www.shudder.com/

Re: Abbas Kiarostami

I just watched Where is the Friend's Home? and it was lovely. One of the better movies about children I've ever seen (and adults, too). The only other Kiarostami films I've seen are Like Someone In Love and Certified Copy , both of which were very good. I'll make a point to watch some more of his fi...
