Clearly yall have good taste, put me on

I really think all that needs to happen is a stronger structure. Like if they did a setup where they actually interviewed people , or something I really don’t know damn it but just hearing them yap about whatever and start a convo and get side tracked because enya is blootered and can’t remember her story gets to a point 🫩 maybe I’m just too old to enjoy the yap now

I know it’s extremely subjective and meat headish request but I really want to watch some cool movies that are well done. For context some movies I think are cool are the royal tenenbaums , requiem for a dream , Goodtime , the fly , young Frankenstein.

Maybe cool isn’t the right word it might be just stylish and great story telling

I struggle finding new music on Apple Music, how do you guys find it? The discover station is ok sometimes.

I’m specifically thinking about writer/directors (not just directors working off someone else’s script). I go back and forth on this a lot. Phenomenal actors are given a character and still bring it to life, adding real depth and nuance. But the writer/director is the one who created that character and world from nothing. At the same time, if the actor sucks it makes the movie hard to watch no matter how great the director is. What do you think?

I love chocolate but I hate chocolate icecream with a passion. It just tastes like an odd chemical with no flavor resemblance to actual ice cream. It some how tastes dry? It is one of the few popular artificial flavors that just flat out sucks.

I am getting in my foreign film bag and am curious what foreign film you just found utterly cool? The coolest one I’ve seen so far is Love Exposure (Japanese, directed by Sion Sono), that film just does it for me. Honorable mentions for me are of course La Haine & City Of god.

What are some of the coolest foreign films you’ve come across?

I would say Aftersun and Manchester by the Sea depict it fairly accurately, especially the Aftersun. I feel like there has to be a bunch more that I don’t know about or haven’t seen yet.

What movies have you all seen that actually get depression right? Looking for more recommendations. Appreciate it

Just genuinely not sure what it is about people loving to gas up a modern horror like it’s the best/scariest film ever made. The hype was overly alive for this one, and it makes sense to certain degree. I enjoyed the creepy moments, I appreciated that it didn’t do cheap jump scares, the acting was great, the atmosphere pulls you in, and it unfolds well. That’s all, though. It doesn’t feel like you are truly seeing something new or a deep scare you haven’t felt before. It does what has been done in almost every modern horror movie or “elevated” horror, but it does it well I’ll admit. But to say it’s holding a candle to hereditary (like I’ve seen many people say) is insane to me.
