Sbe gave me "worm-sign" the likes of which even GOD has never seen!
Coppola's Dracula doesn't deserve anything higher than a 7 either, by thecway. .My point about IMDb is that MovieChat's ratings are tied to IMDb's. Check it out if you doubt me.
You're right about the ratings being meaningless, though. Murnau's Nosferatu should be 8.2 and Herzog's around 7.9.
As long as it's lower than the Murnau and Herzog I don't really care. It's below them both now, and rightly so. So 7.2 or 7.3 is good enough for me.
It's down to 7.3 already on both IMdB and here. MovieChat's rating sysyem is tied into IMdB and is usually lags a week or so behind. Whatever it drops to on IMdB will show up on MovieChat shortly.
Bullshitted?
Right, it had something to do with bitcoin. I couldn't remember.
I don't know what you mean by "Satanic", but "Doge" was the name for the ruler of the oligarchy/ruling class of the Venetian Republic ("the Doges of Venice"). It's also the name of a video game or something, right? Musk did give a salute that looked like a hybrid Nazi/Roman salute. Italian Fascists fantasized about restoration of the Glory of the Roman Empire, and the Nazi part speaks for itself.
Daily reminder: Fuck you, ya drippy smelly cunt.
"we're ever given any conclusive proof as to his wife's adulterous ways. "
Quite true. And the presentation of his wife is rather suspiciously of the Madonna/Whore variety. Fred is clearly shown to be not very sexually potent. Assuming his wife was having an affair, it's entirely possible she was a decent woman driven to seek sexual gratification elsewhere. We can't be sure she really worked in the porn industry, or that Dick Laurent (assuming she was having an affair with him) was actually some evil gangster. He could have just been a normal guy, and she could just have been a frustrated wife.
On the other hand ALL OF IT could have been a product of his own shame and insecurity about his inability to please his wife. This in turn, could have made him increasingly jealous, then paranoid, and ultimately deranged, leading to a complete break with reality after he kills her and the lover (real or imagined).
A somewhat more nuanced take is that she may have worked in the porn industry in some capacity in the past before meeting him and he had trouble dealing with it, leading to obsessive paranoia and derangement.
No, of course not. Any other stupid questions?
"stupid, uninformed, empty, lying, and trying to pull gullible people in with phony joy."
In other words, the Donald Trump of Oscar nominees. Just replace "joy" with patriotism".
7.2 or 7.3. That's my final offer. Those who saw the movie in theaters either really wanted to see if, were Egger fans, or both, and will tend to rate it higher than casual viewers. That will tend to lower the average.
Yes, it was. Lynch finally "ran out of sand". The song "Running Out of Sand" from TP Season 3 proved prophetic, as I feared at the time it might.
He should have done more films, period. If Dune had been a big bit, who knows, he might have.
It started at 7.9, and it's been dropping about a point a week since it opened. It's just a question of when it stabilizes. Now that it's available on streaming it will have a much bigger audience than it did in the theater. Personally, a 7.3 would seem reasonable to me. I think it will dip lower, however.
It's the Donald Trump of Oscar nominees.
Lame, low effort posting.
Man, I've heard some things about Mr. Rogers. That sweater he always put on came from a sheep sheared at a non-organic sheep ranch. What a monster!
There are so many cooks in the kitchen at this point I'm not sure I even know what the official position on race relations is. The predominantly white casting gradually becoming more diverse is more a reflection of cultural changes and market forces in our world than a coherent thought out position in the Star Wars Universe. Honestly l, that might be for the best, as it will just become yet more fodder for debate rather than settling anything.
I don't agree with you at all. Carrie, Dressed to Kill, Blow-Out, Scarface, The Untouchables, Casualties of War, and Carlito's Way are much more significant films and much better examples of his style.
