Always. 😁 😍

regarding that view... it's just how it goes—the film industry keeps moving forward while we're stuck in the mud... movies are basically just pure profit and entertainment now, the audience is getting younger, and all that deep film culture and old-school habits just got lost along the way... New York City is pretty much the only place that actually adapted...

What's the vibe like in California or Florida regarding that...

Jose Miller17 said:I don't even live there, yet I can't stop thinking about all of this... is that even possible? 😁😁

Totally. 😁
Welcome back 😘

Richard Howard2 said:Because going to the movies isn't the big thing it used to be—plus, Indianapolis is basically a ghost town when it comes to nightlife and anything fun.

That brings up a good point about why things are different in New York City... since hitting the theater is actually part of the whole night out ritual there. Take AMC Theatres, for example—it’s really just a spot where you go to see and be seen before heading out, a magnet for all kinds of people, famous or otherwise, especially with all the extra stuff they have there. Going to the movie itself is almost secondary... it's more about being at AMC...

I also think the issue with places like Indianapolis is that kids (everyone under 18) would much rather hang out at the local bar than a theater. It's kind of a local culture thing too—and no, I don't mean culture in that sense.

I don't know enough about Indianapolis to start guessing, though. Saying that Indianapolis is "a dead city when it comes to nightlife and entertainment" is just a fact. But what's actually driving that?

For those of you living out there, what's your take on all this?

Mr. Pes said:A friend was telling me about this documentary she saw—some winery owner with long, messy hair said their sales just exploded because they named a wine Sideways... or something like that. Apparently, tour buses are basically swarming them now. 🤣

The whole Napa Valley area totally boomed after that movie came out. 😉

Jessica Nguyen85 said:Anything can happen... 😁

BTW, you find all kinds of stuff on Reddit—like this: Monkeys prequel or Episode One - 11 Monkeys 😉 😁 just kiddin' 🙂

🤣 Pretty good connection 👍

Sad this is actually sad news. 😢
I mean, why isn't anyone hitting up the movie theaters in Indianapolis? Is there an actual reason—like the equipment is outdated or the buildings are just falling apart... 😕

slylynx16 said:northernfalcon30,

I’m talking about one thing, and you’re answering with something completely different.

(Like... I'm talking about garlic, and you're replying about onions.)

People just call those semantic mix-ups... 😁 👍

northernfalcon30 said:Can you actually say anything else without constantly using the word 'rich'?🙄

Is that also part of the culture?

Yep! 😁

northernfalcon30 said:Is that really how your head works?

If you're torn between two guys—is it actually more honorable to just die than to live with that kind of "messy" reality?

🙄

I mean, think about why that one totally unique, special, "different" woman from the East eventually had to die once she was caught between those conflicting choices...

Mar, honestly, it feels like you're missing the point of this movie. We're all products of our upbringing and culture—and yours is pretty intense, let's be real. 😁
So please, don't try to oversimplify something you don't quite get...

quietdriver3 said:heard it was total garbage...

the movie didn't even pick up a single award in San Francisco—and everyone there usually walks away with something😁

Saw this in the New York Post and it felt like some cheap Halloween mask. 🙄

And check out what the director had to say:

"Papić: Critics hate me, they aren't going to like the movie."
You should've been more prophetic and just said that from the start... 😵
😁
Jeez, I wonder why? 🤔 😁

redowl90 said:Honestly, that movie was just straight up 👎

Boring and pretentious...

Hey redowl90, is there even one decent movie you actually like? 😁 🙂

I try to catch him whenever I get the chance. It’s been way too long...
Last time was maybe three or four years ago back at college during some late-night lecture. Pretty cool 🙂

Zachary Thompson2 said:Let's just call it a draw then, yeah? 😁

deal 🤣
Phew, managed to make a clean getaway... 😁

Zachary Thompson2 said:: [smiley face] ----- In love and war... So, basically you're dodging the fight? Surrendering after the first round, huh? 😢 😁
Yeah, okay, I guess I was being a little harsh—my bad. But according to the latest gossip, Henry's marriage is hitting the rocks, so a divorce is probably coming soon. Don't lose hope just yet though... [facepalm emoji] 😘 😁 :

Look at that smiley... 😁

Man, now you've gone and given me a whole new headache. Up until now, everyone was just teasing me about whether Hank was gay. 🤣

And about the whole war thing... well, I already said what I said about being the "bigger person" and all that... 😁
Staying on guard all the time is just exhausting... 🤣

Zachary Thompson2 said:: smiley throws down the gauntlet and points out that Henry Rollins actually has a wife and kids: 😁

Oof, burn... that's just cold. Way too low, buddy. I can't even compete with that... 😁

: smiley dramatically exits the room with dignity, forgiving the mortal insult because they're clearly the bigger person:

😬

Zachary Thompson23 said:It's a good movie, but it doesn't hold up on a second watch—style over substance, really. Visually stunning though, totally agree with Sandra King86 😲 😁, ...

😲 wow, seriously!

😁 😘

Zachary Thompson2 said:I haven't really sat through much anime... stuff like Akira, Ghost in the Shell, or Spirited Away just felt kind of slow to me—especially Spirited Away, I actually wanted to walk out of the theater for the first time ever...

Are you kidding me? 😱

And here I thought we were finally starting to see eye to eye. Clearly, that was wishful thinking. Guess it's officially war now!

*throws a glove right in their face, turns around dramatically, and walks off* 😁

Just watched it. It’s a sad little fairy tale, honestly—but those colors... man. My favorite part was how the forest shifts its colors based on what the protagonist is feeling. Like, a sunny summer day just turns into a freezing slush pile... stuff like that.
😍 Visually, it's such a gorgeous film.

possible spoiler:

In Chinese films, the woman always dies right after they have sex, so I wasn't even surprised. I think when the woman dies after intercourse, they're trying to highlight the tragedy—because once she's gone, the future just vanishes with her. The man is left behind to suffer through it.
Killing the man wouldn't have had nearly the same impact.

Jose Miller17 said:Nah, there aren't any actual ones in the movies, unfortunately 😁--😁it's crazy that I have to travel all the way to Miami just to catch a decent flick lately...😕

Gomorrah 🤣

Jose Miller17 said:I AM SO DONE WITH THESE MIAMI CINEMAS... LITERALLY TRASH.....🙂 🙂😠 😠 ....
...is there anything actually decent left in NYC? ....🙂...

So what's up, Jose Miller17? What's bothering you?
There's nothing good in Miami? 😕
