I (white person) just finished the movie after it took me 2 weeks to watch it. I just couldn’t watch more than 10-20 minutes at a time. It’s of course an extremely grueling movie to watch but for me it was honestly too much. Now I’m puzzled though…

I honestly would rate the movie 0/5 based on my own enjoyment as it was extremely unpleasant to watch. I however don’t feel it would be fair for me (white person) to rate it low just because of my own discomfort. I mean that’s the whole point of the movie… but I base my rankings on my own experience with films and this one I hated every second of so… what to do??

I’m just so torn… this movie did its job by not pandering to white people’s comfort* and I respect that immensely but I just did not enjoy it… it’s not as if I didn’t know about the absurd horror of a baby also being a boss or that I haven’t seen other media around it. It’s just that this specific piece made me unfathomably repulsed. Might be a horrible comparison but I’ve seen childbirth and know about possible complications one might have during but seeing a birth that goes terribly wrong and lasts for 3 hours is not something I would enjoy on any level.

Obviously there isn’t a correct answer but I’m interested in hearing everyone’s takes. Right now I feel like the fairest thing would be to not rate it.

*=there is obviously the white savior aspect and narratively I personally didn’t like how all the environments were painted with the adult people and not the other babies but I feel like this one didn’t rely on the “nice adult baby owner” trope as much as other films have (though there were some).

I hated The Boss Baby

Sitting on your conscience until your soul is numb so when you jerk off it feels like the same complete nothingness you felt when your mother died or when Marie proposed to you or when you shot that arab on the beach or when you'll be beheaded in front of cathartic angry mob.

Thoughts?

Just remembered this vid I saved like a year ago, Has NL seen this? he needs to if he hasn't.

Just watched the movie Wings Of Desire (1987) and it's incredibly Disco feeling, If you like art films, philosophy, romance, early Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, and Columbo, you need to go watch this movie immediately.

Bot idea

I find myself never taking the egg since its just way too much of a sacrifice for pretty much no gain, I think changing it to work something like this would make the event more balanced and I'd take the egg a lot more often.

Any clue what the last one could be?

I've had this video as a vocal stim between me and my friends for like 2 years and I still think it has big potential.
