@ApollosMission Is this movie the modern version of Fatal Attraction?

Hot take but Obsession is the greatest horror movie of our time.
DiscussingFilm@DiscussingFilm
‘OBSESSION’ has passed $100M worldwide. Over 125X its production budget of $750K.

@anishmoonka Transformers did it better. Optimus vs Megatron fight was epic.

The director who shot this fight built his whole career on slow motion. For the Superman brawl people call the best ever, he used none of it. He filmed it shaky and handheld, like news footage of a disaster, so your eyes buy two men smashing each other through skyscrapers.
That director is Zack Snyder, and the shaky camera was only his first trick. The crew filmed the actors doing the early, ordinary parts of the fight, then stopped the instant a punch turned superhuman. A second camera photographed the empty street and the actors from every angle. Months later, the crew dropped computer-made copies of the actors into that exact spot, moving faster than any human could. You never catch the moment the person becomes the computer. That was the whole point.
Almost nothing on screen is what it looks like. Around 1,500 shots in the film needed computer work, handed to studios like the one behind Lord of the Rings. The villain, Zod, wore nothing on set but a gray suit covered in dots, and every piece of his armor was painted on later by computer. They even photographed the actors' faces from eight angles at once, so artists could rebuild them on a computer.
Composer Hans Zimmer refused to touch the old Superman music everyone hums. He gathered about a dozen of the best drummers alive, including the son of Led Zeppelin's drummer, sat them in a circle, and stood in the middle waving them on. He wanted the pounding to hit you from every side, like the fight had broken out in your room.
The buildings fall the slow, heavy way they fall in life, so the wreckage feels like a true disaster off the evening news. The man who drew up the final flying fight said he set out to beat the famous Neo versus Agent Smith battle from The Matrix, and to make it move like a Japanese cartoon.
The film cost $225 million and earned about $670 million, close to three times its budget. Thirteen years on, people still call it the best fight in any superhero movie. The crew earned that by pouring most of their work into one job: making sure you never spot where the live actor stops and the computer takes over.

It’s been 13 years, yet no other live action fight has come close to this greatness.

@BobbyCastro1994 @get_scifried @stagescreen60 @WrongReel @RAnomalas @UrkoThGnslngr @4NReveur I think the Val Kilmer movie, Red Planet was better.

@vashikoo I just realized that Project Hail Mary paid homage to this scene.

Nolan’s The Odyssey lacks beauty, artistic thinking, quality of writing, wonder over source material, grandeur, faithfulness, magic, and character and this is all obvious before the film even comes out.
Representation and accuracy are issues, but not the major ones.
spiked@spikedonline
Christopher Nolan’s ‘Odyssey’ shows how poisonous identity politics has been for the film industry. The left demands ‘representation’, the right demands ‘historical accuracy’. Good art doesn’t need to do either, says Maren Thom buff.ly/PwSdhJg

@colditioner Daniel Day Lewis only pick roles that guarantees him a Oscar nomination and that he actually just plays himself just in different customs.

@A_cuevas435 As a man why are driving Trucks or Mustangs that signals broke and 20% APR.

@TheCinesthetic Nolan was also the only director who gave Casey Affleck a role in Oppenheimer. I was shock when I saw him.

@Ubitcha1 @rylandsgrace It did matter. If Rocky didn't give Grace the Astrophage fuel, then Rocky would have been stranded because of the infection to the Xenonite. That extra fuel allowed Grace to go back and save Rocky.

@newstart_2024 Yeah - the spirit is still willing, but at 70 the flesh has gone beyond weak into hibernation.
let's hope all that good work I put in between the ages of 17 and 65 will be enough.

Sex once a week = up to 49% lower all-cause mortality.
Dr. Rena Malik on the Shawn Ryan Show laid it out:
People having sex 52 times a year live longer, have lower heart disease risk, and better overall health outcomes compared to those who have it rarely. The same frequency also boosts mental health by reducing depression and anxiety.
For men, ejaculating 21+ times per month (sex or masturbation) is linked to significantly lower prostate cancer risk. Women see benefits too — stronger immune function, lower blood pressure, and better pelvic health.
One major study showed the striking 49% reduction in all-cause mortality with regular weekly sex.
In a stressed and often lonely world, consistent intimacy is a simple, enjoyable lever for better longevity and wellness.
Regular sexual activity is also associated with higher levels of oxytocin and endorphins, which naturally reduce cortisol (stress hormone) and support better sleep quality and immune response.

@MiniRetireMatt You actually think you'll make it to 80? Fat chance. 1 million over 20 years should let you withdraw 6% and get Social Security by 65. Die with nothing.

@LucTarricone She's good for a weekend at the most. Trust me once you see the nips and bang her 3 times in a row, it's nothing special. She absolutely have nothing interesting to say, other than her IG followers.

@AuzyMale @0xPepesso You're actually asking this dumbass for advise. If your up, do nothing. If your red definitely do nothing. If you don't know his pattern yet, Elon tends to pump up the stock when he wants to sell or his brother does. Chances are, $TSLA will dump after SPCX ipo. Sell the news.
English

@0xPepesso So what’s your recommendations for TSLA holders. Continue holding? buy TSLA? Buy SPCX? Sell TSLA BUY SPCX?

🚨 ELON MUSK JUST MADE EVERYONE A HIDDEN MILLIONAIRE
$SPCX just filed a $75B IPO and Tesla holders already own a piece without knowing it
This IPO with $1.75T valuation will definitely be the argest in recorded history
Drops June 12
The crowd is focused on BTC charts and almost nobody is tracking what's actually being assembled here
In March, Tesla converted its $2B xAI stake into a direct SpaceX shareholding
TSLA holders became SpaceX shareholders before the IPO even priced - they just don't know it
On top of that - Wedbush puts 80-90% odds on a full Tesla/SpaceX merger as a 2027 scenario
Last time Musk pulled a structural move like this: SolarCity merger, 2016, TSLA ran 4,828% over the next 12 years
$10,000 became $492,800
The scale of what's being built here is a different category from anything I've seen this cycle
As for me, June 12 is circled - this is the kind of setup you don't wait for confirmation on
Save this. This is a generational wealth play
