Honestly, it’s absolute garbage. Sure, the opening is mildly amusing—the first half is even somewhat tolerable if you catch a few decent bits here and there—but once the big shot meets that obnoxious brat... 🙂
Every single greasy, paper-thin scene from every bottom-of-the-barrel rom-com ever made featuring those insufferable characters is right here, cranked up to eleven. I spent more time staring at the wall than at the screen because, frankly, I was embarrassed just being in the same room as it. I can't believe I actually walked into a theater for this piece of junk, and what's even harder to wrap my head around is how anyone could even attempt to compare this trash to Lost in Translation or—God forbid—Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind! 😕
Nah, I’ve read some stuff about that movie and it definitely piqued my interest—kind of caught my attention, you know?—but I think I’m gonna pass on it for now. I don't know... look it over yourself and let me know if it's actually worth the hype 🙂
Chloe Fox35 said:Look, most of the time I don't even bother with horror movies if they're just relying on cheap gore—you know, the whole "limbs flying everywhere" type of nonsense. If a movie is just tossing random body parts at the screen to try and shock you, it usually ends up being either straight-up ridiculous or just plain boring. I mean, sure, horror *needs* to be scary—that’s the whole point—but mindless carnage isn't doing it for me. So, when a flick actually manages to pull off the tension without falling into those traps, I'm totally on board. This one? It was actually spot on. Look, I’m totally fine with horror movies that—let’s be honest—are basically just relaxing entertainment driven by a solid script. I don't need a jump scare every five seconds to stay engaged. What I actually crave is that subtle, creeping sense of unease—you know, those one or two specific scenes that actually manage to knock me right off my damn seat? I’m talking about that feeling where it’s not even a full-blown scream, but just a weird little detail or an unsettling hint that sticks in your brain and makes you feel this... I don't know, specific kind of discomfort. Give me those moody, eerie, "sweetly spooky" vibes any day. That’s the sweet spot for me.
Look, May, you seriously need to see this—there’s this one scene in the preschool where all these blind kids start crawling around the floor, and man, it gives me the chills. Okay, maybe "chills" isn't the right word—it's more like a total gut punch. It’s just such a haunting, heavy sight to witness.
Yeah, so... remakes. Honestly, you're totally onto something there—I feel like I was reading some deep dive article about this exact thing a few months back, so I can't say for sure if my memory is serving me right, but isn't there some weird rumor floating around that Tom Cruise might have something to do with it?
Man, I think he probably bought out the remake rights or something like that. Honestly, my memory is a little fuzzy on the specifics—I can't quite recall the details—and, if I’m being totally real with you, I’m feeling way too lazy to actually go look it up.
Chinese? Yeah, I’ve got one sitting right here. It isn’t exactly breaking any records for being mind-blowing or anything, but hey—it gets the job done if you just want something to stare at.
Uhm, so Romero’s already working on his fourth one—pretty sure it’s gonna be called Land of the Dead or something along those lines.
Honestly, this new Dawn of the Dead was such a frustrating slog to sit through. I mean, seriously—every single character acts like they’ve had a lobotomy. It was maddening; I found myself getting worked up every few minutes because someone would inevitably do something incredibly stupid. It just wasn't believable at all—and look, I get it, it's horror, but you still need some level of suspension of disbelief to work, right? The opening is actually top-tier, but the rest of it... well, it’s not total garbage, but it’s definitely not hitting the mark either.
Joshua Richardson48 said:They’re amazing. Honestly, I feel like we have so many more underrated bands out there that are lightyears better than the absolute garbage playing on mainstream American radio right now. It’s pretty sad that we can't seem to spot them when they're right in front of us.
Yammat being "underrated"? Give me a break—they've basically been coasting on the hype from one solid single and a decent music video for years now. And seriously, which "underrated" bands are you talking about that we supposedly aren't catching?
The Beach Boys are honestly just a snooze fest lately. I mean, they don’t even come close to capturing that old-school Lemonheads vibe—especially not the classic era, you absolute heretics. The Beach Boys are basically just poor man's emo if you ask me. 😛 🙂
I honestly didn't give a damn when that guy scammed us we basically grabbed a piece just to hunt him down man, we were so livid, we actually ended up shooting him in the leg I mean, he was a total jerk regardless it felt amazing to let it all out—total Hollywood movie vibes just holding onto this chaotic, slippery headspace give me a kiss on the forehead
the whole summer, we were just refusing to kick the bucket just living fast, getting messy, and staying high and anything we managed to swipe, we just burned through on the Ferris wheel it felt incredible to let loose, like I was some big-time movie star with my mind feeling all slippery and wild just kiss my forehead
and all those dreams of yours—man, God bless your soul I watched you clutching your head in pain but there was no way we were gone for good because you stood right back up, let out a moan, and told us, "I wasn't waving goodbye, I was saying hello."
The Flaming Lips made an absolutely legendary cover of this one. (rhymes like 🙂)
Man, they used to be actually interesting, but nowadays? They’re boring as hell. Honestly, from the time they dropped The Flaming Lips until now, they’ve probably only put out like five decent songs total.
