@CinemaTweets1 Unfortunately, there aren't enough like this any more.

Don’t You Ever Suggest Cinema is Dying Not When Films Like This Exist

@HansFiene Honestly? No joke? Haven't seen it yet, just wondering if all the hype is true

The more I think about it, the more I think Project Hail Mary is one of the best movies I’ve seen in maybe 30 years or so

@Radstaker @BestMovieMom It's been in development hell for over a decade

@BestMovieMom Wait until you hear the title of the confirmed sequel.

Warner Bros. spent $178 million producing Edge of Tomorrow (2014). Despite a slow start at the US box office, it became a massive global hit and cult classic, partly due to the "Live Die Repeat" rebranding for home video.

@jondelarroz Great casting Great production values

Now that we have a full on destruction of Star Trek on every level, what do we think of the 2009 Kelvin Timeline?

@TimeDecoded @timecaptales Chuck Norris was a myth that became true.

@timecaptales This reads less like a career… and more like a myth.

Chuck Norris held a 183-10-2 record and was a 6x world champion in full contact bare knuckle karate. On top of that, he beat heavyweight kickboxing world champion Joe Lewis 3 consecutive times and also had a brutal sparring match with undefeated kickboxing world champion, Bill Superfoot Wallace, that lasted an hour and a half. According to Wallace, they practically stalemated and "beat the crap out of each other". Chuck was trained in kickboxing/boxing by Benny The Jet Urquidez and was also trained in BJJ by the Gracies and Machados for 20 years. Even being able to submit Carlos Machado himself on occasion. Chuck had a 315 Ibs bench press at 180 lbs bodyweight and was said to have a grip back in the day that nobody could escape from because he was so strong. Even Jean Claude Van Damme said he'd never fight Chuck Norris, despite being a kickboxing world champion himself. Chuck held a 10th degree black belt in Chun Kuk Do, a 9th degree black belt in Tang Soo Do, an 8th degree black belt in Taekwondo, a 5th degree black belt in Karate, a 3rd degree black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and a black belt in Judo. Rest in peace, Chuck!

@RealHarryFlash @NatureRoot88 @ingelramdecoucy SHHHHHHH!

@NatureRoot88 Pretty sure that's Gary, Indiana. @ingelramdecoucy, care to weigh in?

Switzerland 🇨🇭

@GShaneMorris Masterpiece, no doubt 👍 And James Newton Howard's score with Hilary Hahn's violin is one of the best of the century

M. Night Shyamalan's "The Village." Eerie, soulful masterpiece brimming with symbolism and asking the deepest questions about human nature and the origin of evil. 10/10 score and acting. Hated for not being a twist gimmick or slasher (due largely to bad marketing).

@habib_sammouh @RMBee It's part of a larger discussion of post-structuralism and reader reaction. Yes, a text apart from it's context can be (mis)understood all kinds of ways. That is different than purposefully choosing to read a text differently than its known intent by severing author and text.

@RMBee How is he wrong though? The author can intend all he wants, but at the end of day the message that actually reaches the audience is what matters. We have a funny saying in Arabic about something incomprehensible: the meaning is at the heart of the poet.

This is peak postmodern insanity..., "What Herbert intended with their work is irrelevant because that's not what their work said. Authorial intent has limits when the text is finaly presented." Sure, Jan...

@BestMovieMom The only thing I didn't like was the way he talked. It was difficult understand almost anything he said.

Tom Hardy admitted he cried after reading online criticism of his appearance in The Dark Knight Rises (2012) “Bat-fans want me to be over 220 pounds. 400 pounds. I’m like, dude… I’m human. I read things & I cry. I just try to be the best that I can be.”

@OrthodoxWario @christopherrufo You are right, but if he only read the first 100 pages, he didn't really get that.

@christopherrufo Brother if you didnt get The Road you need to reanalyze from first principles. Its a dying father’s advice to his son, and deeply Christian.

I read the first hundred pages of The Road last year, and read the first hundred pages of Blood Meridian this year, and in both instances, gave up, because the books never clicked. Lyrical writing, but the characters are reduced to way down Maslow's hierarchy, and the tone is so relentlessly bleak, with almost no humanity breaking through, it was difficult to feel anything besides the flint clicking against the cold steel in the overwhelming darkness. I know many of you love it, but to me, it's overwrought, overstylized, and overhyped.

What is the most unfairly hated movie that you will defend every time

@SaltySailor28 @TheCinesthetic This is my pick as well!

@TheCinesthetic The Matrix Reloaded

@screenscenest @TheCinesthetic One of the best tag lines of all time: "THIS SUMMER, THE COAST IS TOAST"

@TheCinesthetic Volcano

@BenefactrChurch @StephenCMeyer Nope. Studying the creation as the handiwork of the Creator is at the heart of science. Nature isn't divine, it was created. And logic and reason are needed to develop empiricism... logic and reason being gifts that the Creator endowed us with.

@StephenCMeyer Belief in the supernatural phenomena entails rejection of essential foundations of science.

"Science at the highest level now provides objective evidence that a Creator exists." Link in comments

@daystrymdaze @LibertyCappy Dang I'm 99.999% sure this is true, but you have a point

@LibertyCappy No I'm calling bullshit. Sharks know not to fuck with Chuck Norris

I believe it

@BillRey56576371 @LibertyCappy Yeah, but the difference is, you saw it and you KNOW this must be true

@LibertyCappy Saw it on the internet, must be true

@ReddCinema LeBron has destroyed his legacy over the last several years

Who is the worst player in this picture??

@IFFFMEISTER There's almost nothing about about Luke in TFA. Your reading is all conjecture. Actually... these sequel films aren't even worth debating. They make the terrible prequels actually look good!

Everybody hating on me but name a single thing wrong with Luke in TLJ (real problems, not nitpicks) that isn't already in or a logical next step from The Force Awakens.

@MustGetBiggr @JamesMartinSJ Yeah. I was thinking, "Okay, next step, only admit students from families with incomes below $150K"

@JamesMartinSJ What Note Dame doesn’t announce is that a maximum of 0 students per year will be admitted from families with incomes under $150,000.

Fantastic. Notre Dame announces that families with incomes under $150,000 will pay zero tuition news.nd.edu/news/notre-dam…

@IFFFMEISTER @le_prince_russe I agree with most of what you said, but NO every bad thing in TLJ is not due to TFA. Rian has stated many times he wanted to subvert expectations. Kathleen Kennedy giving him complete control without any idea where the story would go in episode 9 was fatal.

@le_prince_russe every single thing bad with TLJ is the fault of TFA

The Last Jedi is NOT the problem with the sequel trilogy (thread) - Force Awakens is *actually* what cooked the story. It is the real culprit that made things bad, because it sent us back to the status quo of the original trilogy, which was a very stupid decision
