I’ll just stick to the thread title for this one.

In my opinion, being an introvert is closely linked to misanthropy. Honestly, I think introversion is a direct predisposition for it. Not that there's anything wrong with that—at least not in my book.

Hey there! 👍

I caught it back on Monday. Definitely the most intense scene—Sylvester Stallone: my wife gets ejected from the plane and then immediately takes a hit from someone else. 🤣

Pure genius. 🙏 This is a cult classic in the making.

DANGEROUS GAMES OVER THE BALTIC SEA Swedish fighter jets intercept Russian nuclear bombers en route to the Åland Islands

They just don't sound the same, at least not to me. Just listen to some of these better-known guys—for example, Baby Dooks -> , Andrew -> , and Barbara Radulović -> have absolutely killer voices. 👍

Either way, you can definitely train your voice. I mean, look at Mel Blanc -> , he was an absolute legend 🙏

Or even the incomparable Don LaFontaine -> 🙏. There’s actually even a movie dedicated to him and this whole topic: In a World... (2013)

Do your FAK crew members have a shot at entering too?

How many amateur reviews did you guys end up getting over the last few years?

It’s a good thing Mamić didn't run him over with an SUV 🤣

It’s a solid movie, but I always feel like something is missing when I watch a Mann film (well, except for The Last Mohican).

I honestly don't get why they had to lean so hard on 80s and 90s tech vibes for the impulse travel and data transfers. Can't we show the raw power of modern electronics in a different way? Regardless, it's still a good flick.

My absolute favorite has to be Halloween because, quite simply, I grew up watching those films. I love the entire series!

@mlac13, you really should have thrown The Exorcist into the mix too, considering there are at least four movies in that franchise!

Fortunately for me, I've never actually listened to Bozanic, so I can't really see how my post relates to his preaching. If he’s even within 1% of what I wrote, then the Cardinal is nothing more than—an atheist. Pretty wild for a Cardinal, right? 🤔

The movie title is a bold fact, while the other bold part is a quote from Cormac McCarthy in No Country for Old Men.

How you managed to interpret my entire, word-for-word atheistic post—which basically calls the very existence of God into question—as something Catholic... well, only you know that. 🤦 Don't even bother trying to explain it. 🙂

So, you don't agree with what was written?

bluenomad2 said:I completely disagree. To me, that series is strictly for wannabe horror fans who still have a lot to learn.

Well, The Exorcist had to be included. That third installment is damn underrated and features one of the scariest scenes in horror history. The one in the hospital hallway 🙏 and the final struggle are effective and atmospheric. So, the first is a masterpiece, the third is very good, while the second is bad. If we include Emily Rose, then we get another quality sequel. It makes no sense to leave that series out when we know very few franchises in this poll have more than two good films, besides Evil Dead, obviously.☕

I’m honestly curious how you process movies in your head. If you were watching them the right way, you wouldn't even think to write something like that.

Final Destination is, first and foremost, a smart movie. Sure, it was made for a younger crowd, but older viewers can watch it without any issues. Why? Because the film weaves in philosophical questions, various phobias, gut feelings, and even misconceptions. Beyond just the title 'Final Destination,' there’s actually a deeper message here—death is present, it's inevitable, and nobody can run from it. Plus, we can look at the quote: you never know how bad luck might have saved you from an even worse stroke of luck.

Right at the start of the first movie, it poses a highly debatable philosophical question regarding the existence of God—something most of us grapple with during our teenage years—followed by several others:

They board the plane and hear/see a child crying:



which is followed by this comment:



Immediately after, there's the scene where they see a sick individual:



and the accompanying commentary:



So, just within these few scenes, there are more than just a couple of debatable philosophical and social questions, not to mention the question of God itself. And that's just the beginning...

Maybe it would have been better if this movie hadn't turned into a franchise, but regardless, it's a high-quality, intelligent film. Unlike most horror flicks, this one actually offers something intellectual and worth discussing. Reading your comment is honestly pretty funny, so, Remus, you might need to eat a bit more fish oil.

Hey, sorry if I'm blowing up your notifications. Is it possible to switch from rapidmason22 to hurry slowly !? Why? Because the current oxymoron is a pain to write, read, and say with a pause instead of without one—and more importantly, it'll cut down my login time. I totally messed up right at the start. hurry slowly. hurry slowly. 🙂

Sure, just let rustydrifter10 know.

The movie’s been floating around torrent sites for ages. Nothing to write home about.

It’s basically a big corporate plug, though it does manage to sneak in a decent moral lesson.

A bit cold, but worth a watch if you have the time.

What a fantastic story! 👍 I am seriously pumped about this adaptation. You’re going to be surprised—well, at least I know I will be. This is going to be incredible. I noticed the cast includes people from 1408, and let me tell you, the 1408 movie was a rock-solid King adaptation. A really great film.

I can totally relate to the guy in the fourth story; I've dealt with similar spider scares myself. Granted, I didn't neglect a kid (don't have one), lose my wife, or get fired over it, but it definitely frayed my nerves—much like how my budget for buying a place in Tuscany took a hit recently. I actually ended up getting into an argument with my girlfriend over the sheer greed of those types of people.

I'm curious how you all interpret this movie, but to me, it provides a very clear visualization—even with so many characters passing through—of a single person (the viewer) facing their own alter ego in various situations. Aside from the first story, which is shockingly lucid given when it was filmed (thinking about that recent tragedy), it’s clearly an escapist fantasy centered on morbid revenge.

Throughout the entire film, the director presents us with two (sometimes three or four) different options to choose from in every single story; essentially, the whole movie represents one single personality. For instance, in the second story, we could be the aggressor, the victim, that crazy old woman, or even the collateral damage like the aggressor's son. The film gives us clarity on who we *don't* want to be, while simultaneously warning us about the kind of psychopaths we inevitably run into in real life. Try merging all those characters into one person who just stands there contemplating the consequences of certain actions—which is exactly what the screenwriter/director is doing (one person). Then there's the sixth story, the wedding, which shows exaggerated reactions while portraying an impulsive mistake we might have all made, even though it vividly illustrates how such a thing could actually happen. This film tackles morality and the human psyche at an incredibly high level. I’d go so far as to say no other film explores the human mind quite like this. I'd love to pour out my full analysis to you, but honestly, I'm feeling a bit lazy. All in all, it's a brilliant film.

This chart is incredible. I can't even tell you how stoked I am that we finally managed to see eye to eye on this.

The movie is structured to walk you through six different stages of the psychopathic mind:

1. Part one - the mass murderer psychopath
2. Part two - the killer psychopath
3. Part three - the provocateur psychopath
4. Part four - the intellectual psychopath
5. Part five - the wealthy psychopath
6. Part six - the psychopath in love

As you can see, it’s graded from the most extreme cases down to the "lighter" ones.
