Lots of movies have quite drab or boring plot synopsises like your generic horror or action films but then end up being absolute bangers of an execution from the creators. What about movies that have amazing plot ideas to begin with but then when it's put to film they end up being soggy blankets? It happens all too often these days. Blue Bettle was the last one I thought of. Cool idea, but then just a rinse repeat of everything else we've seen already.... wet.... blanket... The Flash also. submitted by /u/BeijingVO2 [link] [comments]

Not protagonists but side characters you realised get away with it! Ben Stiller’s character in Happy Gilmore comes to mind (the evil guy working at grandma’s care home). As far as I can tell he’s still bullying residents and using the old folks home like a sweat shop at the end. Any others you can think of? submitted by /u/StoneSkimming [link] [comments]

The Godfather was that movie for me. It is one of the best movies ever made. I bought the VHS tape. As soon as it was released on DVD, I bought it. I've read the book a number of times. I've streamed it to no end. And by this point, I've burned myself out on it. I will not watch it, in full, ever again. What was that movie for you and why? submitted by /u/edest [link] [comments]

Carrying an unconscious person. Found out the hard way when my wife was sick and fainted. An unconscious body is surprisingly limp and slippery. Try to lift them by the armpits? Nope, that just makes the arms flail and they'll slip right through your fingers. Try to lift them from under the knees and around the back? Nope, their back won't stay stiff enough and their ass will just sink to the floor. Not to mention their head is rolling around the whole time. submitted by /u/NoArugulaz [link] [comments]

What I mean by this is a relatively slow paced movie subtly building tension to a really intense scene that hits you out of the blue. Alternatively movie with twists that hit you very suddenly/out of the blue. I can’t think of any examples of the top of my head but I’d love your suggestions, thanks. submitted by /u/GayPorn134 [link] [comments]

here are a few examples. harry from night of the living dead. him being a colossal asshole doesn't stop him from being absolutely right that hiding out in the basement would have increased the group's chances of survival. clubber lang from rocky 3. sure, he's an arrogant loudmouth who can't even breathe without being disrespectful but he did absolutely win the championship fair and square. fletcher from whiplash. he may be an extremely verbally abusive asshole but he is right that some people need to be pushed beyond their capabilities to be able to achieve greatness. mr potter from it's a wonderful life. while he is easily one of the most morally bankrupt characters in all of cinema(to the point where there's even a popular fan theory that he's supposed to represent the devil while george is meant to represent jesus), he is correct that george's father, as nice of a guy as he was, wasn't very business savvy. even george admits that he has a point. eric matthews from saw 2. he is a dirty cop but he is absolutely right that john kramer, no matter how much he tries to justify his actions, is still a murderer. as he accurately puts it "putting a gun to someone's head and forcing them to pull the trigger is still murder". submitted by /u/herequeerandgreat [link] [comments]

A lot of movies feel like they were written by a marketing department. It feels like they got 10 execs in a room and everyone wrote down ideas, characters, plot-points, etc that they know will sell - and then tried to organize them into a narrative structure. There's no vision. There's no plot progression. Its just one random event next to another random event, and characters delivering shitty one-liners. Like writing madlibs. Even B-movies from the 80's and 90's have better narrative structure and story-telling than half the new movies out today. They don't make movies - they make 'content' submitted by /u/LandscapeRudez [link] [comments]

A recent example for me is The Last Duel. It was going to be a hard sell right out of the gate because it’s 2 and a half hour period piece that deals with sexual assault that was released during the height of covid. It had all the factors to make a bigger splash: directed by Ridley Scott starring Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Adam Driver and Jodie Comer yet it only made 30 million and is considered a massive box office bomb. I wanted it to succeed because medieval movies are probably my favorite genre and I want more medieval movies with massive budgets because it just looks nice on screen. This bomb hurts because it may hinder other medieval time period movies from being made. submitted by /u/SerDire [link] [comments]

As for me, it was Saving Private Ryan. I have to admit seeing people being slaughtered like lambs on Omaha beach, people calling out to their moms on the ground crying, holding their own necks to prevent blood from spewing, that for a minute, changed me. Maybe I'm the soft one but it really made me see life in itself as a very fragile thing. To make it all worse, it was all to save one guy who in the end refuses to leave and that leads to the death of many of my favorite characters in the movie, and worst of all Tom Hanks' character of whom all i wanted, was to see him get back to his wife, but also that was snatched away at the very end. submitted by /u/clueless_as_shit21 [link] [comments]

Sometimes lines from movies stick out to me not because they were important or quotable even, but just because of the way they were said or the way the actor looked when they said them. A few for me are: -In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix when Umbridge tries to make the Divination professor leave and Mcgonagall tells Umbridge only the headmaster can do that. They way Umbridge looks at her and says "For now..." just really stuck in my head...So threatening and you can see she is just waiting for her revenge and you just hate her character so much in that moment. In The Shining after Wendy locks Jack in the freezer and he is calling to her as she walks away, when she turns around and says "Yes?" Just the way she says it, exhausted and sad and stressed and annoyed, but still responding though maybe she shouldn't. submitted by /u/RedHeadRedeemed [link] [comments]

I want to know what horror movie scared you or traumatized you for a long time after watching it. Mine was The Exorcist. I saw it when I was 10 years old (my stepdad thought it would be a brilliant family movie to watch) and it gave me nightmares for months and I was traumatized by seeing any female possessed or being evil for quite a long time. I have seen it a few more times since then and It still gives me the creeps but not like it used to. It takes A LOT now to scare me when it comes to a horror film and at this point, I can't think of a horror movie that has ever come close to making an impact like The Exorcist did. submitted by /u/Previous-Tank4798 [link] [comments]

here's one. the nightmare before christmas and wreck it ralph. both are animated movies about someone who is tired of their station in life and travels to a different world to try to do something different. in both films, the hero's actions cause horrible chaos which the hero must then fix. then, they go right back to their old position with a newfound appreciation. also, both films were made by disney. submitted by /u/herequeerandgreat [link] [comments]

I'm honestly curious to hear. Like, everyone loves movies from Kubrick, Hitchcock, Scorsese, Kurosawa, etc. But what about movies that aren't well received but is considered godly by Reddit? Like something that has a "rotten" on Rotten Tomatoes or low Metacritic rating. The first that comes to my mind is Drop Dead Gorgeous. It seems everyone loves that movie despite it's percentage on Rotten Tomatoes. Even aside from the Reddit crowd, it has 3.9ish on Letterboxd and is beloved on Twitter and maybe even YouTube. Any others? submitted by /u/TheListenerCanon [link] [comments]

It took me years to convince my wife to watch A River Runs Through It. Even Brad Pitt as eye candy wasn't enough for her to get past the fly fishing. She eventually caved and watches it, and she absolutely loved it. What are some other examples of a film with a boring plot premise that is great regardless? submitted by /u/whiskeyandtea [link] [comments]

I was talking to someone at work about films the other day and I mentioned I’d recently seen The Prestige. He somehow had never even heard of it, yet when I described it as a film about “two rival magicians trying to discover each other’s secrets”, he laughed at me and said that sounded awful. What other films are like this? submitted by /u/redlorryyellowlorry9 [link] [comments]

People say there are certain actors that play characters of one moral alignment so well that when they try the other side, you just don't buy it as much. What actors can slip into either so masterfully? Here are a few that come to mind for me. 1) Michael Keaton While I don't geek over his Batman portrayal like a lot of people that grew up with that movie, he plays hero with emotional baggage really well. Even in the recent Flash film, I thought he brought his A game. Then when you look at his villain/antagonistic roster, he absolutely slayed as Vulture in the MCU and even the questionable Ray Croc in the Founder. 2) Daniel Radcliffe I never grew up adoring him as Harry Potter either but I know he was great. My first introduction to him was actually in Victor Frankenstein, a movie that I don't think many people saw but he played a sympathetic outcast "freak" incredibly well. Then there's Now You See Me 2, which despite its other flaws, Radcliffe as a villain wasn't one of them. He wasn't in the movie much but he did come off as an incredibly douchey rich kid that you kind of rooted against more so than the main villains. 3) Rachel McAdams In 90% of the movies I've seen her in, she's a good guy and tends to play very similar roles, particularly when it comes to romance adjacent ones. A stark night and day contrast to her iconic performance as Regina George in Mean Girls. One of the btchiest btches in all of romcom history. I'd love to hear you guys' suggestions. submitted by /u/Olivebranch99 [link] [comments]
