I'm starting to phase phase this out, won't be overnight but you can find me here if you're interested. I've been on this website for a decade and half, sad to say goodbye to it but it's time for something new. Much love, friends.

Most people just took it as a fun quirk but to me it added to the old school cold war submarine suspense aesthetic (prior to a formalized update to Naval military etiquette in the 70s, it was customary to address any officer below rank of commander as "mister")
Chris Evangelista@cevangelista413

Really impressive how the film doesn’t truly come to life until he shows up and starts calling Ethan Hunt “Mister” over snd over again

I think more than any other, Final Destination is my generation's horror franchise. FD perfectly represents the fear we grew up with, not of a boogeyman or slasher who could get us, but of life and the ever-present danger of death, this lingering anxiety of our own mortality.

The more I think about Final Destination Bloodlines, the more I love it! This breathes life back into the franchise and is the best sequel since part 3. It has some of the best deaths of the series and is so fun and tense. Tony Todd's final role made the movie that much better.

Never seen a script, but couple years ago when that property was still kinda shit hot. I wrote a short treatment with James Badge Dale & David Harbour in mind. Never gotten anywhere.

@VyceVictus There's a wonderful moment in Coogler's Breakfast Club interview where they bring up From Dusk Till Dawn and its influnce, and he responds with, "Yeah, maybe The Faculty even more so." Awesome moment. I've never seen ROSEWOOD, but it just jumped high up on my list.

Lots of connections being made with SINNERS and other films it’s in conversation with (FROM DUSK TILL DAWN, NOPE etc); Most immediate in my mind is John Singleton’s ROSEWOOD A horrifying tale of a real life massacre, music is also featured from Jazz legend Wynton Marsalis

Thinking about this again: If you think the upcoming MCU Johnny Storm crying like a stuck baby pig as his shriveled charred dick is exposed treating mangled legs shredded by an IED is “US military propaganda”, then nothing has any meaning anymore
arvo färt@arvofart

I intellectually understand this argument, but if we believe that there are no anti-war movies because of audiences’ ability to misinterpret those movies are aspirational rather than critical, can any movie ever mean or say anything?

WARFARE I have nothing to “Say” It provides what it literally says on the tin: the utmost realistic memory of war as tribute to a combatant. It asks no question, provides no answer. All insight exists external to the film. Arguing further is as pointless as the invasion of Iraq

Truffaut famously said "there is no such thing as an anti-war film" but I dunno, I think Tony crushed the concept by making it clear that nukes are a plague upon man and no one should possess them, least of all cocksure assholes with itchy trigger fingers twitter.com/zach_vasquez/s…

@VyceVictus Crimson Tide is the only one I can think of that actually espouses liberal—not progressive, though—values and also fully rules.

@arvofart Obvious answers like COME AND SEE in the replies that refute the premise, but it doesn’t even need to be that extreme. Perhaps more pertinently, I think the deeper implication is that films can’t be anti-war if they are entertaining, and that also isn’t true. Tony Scott made one!

@VyceVictus I was watching an interview with Denzel where he spoke about his personal history with Othello having been in it when he was young. He said that he hasn't been this excited about anything he has ever done as he is about this. Paraphrasing a bit. So stoked you got to see it, man!

Never seen Jordan hit a championship buzzer beater. Never seen Einstein work through an equation to a solution on a chalk board. Never seen Miyamoto Musashi cut down an opponent in one fell swoop. I think I have an inkling of what those might feel like

Still thinking about listening to Enter The Wu-Tang 36th Chamber when I was 14, worshipping it. Then working with 1 of its founding father 30 years later, while discussing Kung-Fu & Japanese flicks. Life is still liveable. 👐🏼👐🏼👐🏼
