Finally got around to my list of the best documentaries of 2023 (+ some fun extras). Films from USA, Canada, France, Brazil, Tunisia and even Greenland. A remarkably strong year for films about First Nations people, too. And a lil somebody called Beyonce. thefilmexperience.net/blog/2024/4/1/…

@JosephKahn Is Moana woke because it isn’t about white people? Do ppl not even get to exist in stories from the parts of the world they are routinely told to “go back” to? And at what point does “the woke left” not wanting a live action Snow White or a dud Supergirl supersede your ideology?

I see this sentiment that "The Odyssey isn't woke" popping up from the right. This is cope. The Odyssey is fully woke. A trans-man is jumping around in armor. Helen of Troy didn't get less black. The Left won. It's a stomping. It happens. The Left wins some, the Right wins some. It's culture wars and Nolan is the white George Floyd Revenge Goliath that choked out the backlash. Admit defeat on this one. The Right knocked down Little Mermaid, Moana, Snow White, The Marvels, but the Left won with The Odyssey. The score is 4-1.
The Italian Texan Stallion@GMErectheus

The Odyssey isn’t woke; Chris Nolan is just continuing the pre-Obama idea of being race-blind and focusing on acting ability. Right-wing influencers are the ones infected with the woke-mind virus; they see it behind every bush and get triggered. In reality Nolan is just someone from twenty years ago trying to make a good film.

@DeusExCinema I believe I saw this on the day of the election. We had an after work drinks planned and I wasn’t in the mood little did I expect how relevant it would be.

@one4ghost Go to any repertory screening and the derisive scoff is everywhere for movies that are style forward or even characters act like they’re in a movie not in the “real” world. It’s a plague.

Turn went private so I can't quote this but it's 100% true, avid TV-show watchers & especially millennials are so story/plot-focused that they've become blind to what actually makes cinema special & unique, and it's why they tend to underrate a lot of New Hollywood era films

@LyrebirdDream Monoculturalism isn't about food. It's about common expected behaviours and standards. Why is it so hard for people to understand such a simple thing? #auspol

Pauline Hanson says Australia should become more “monocultural”. So I took a stroll through Woolworths to see what would survive. Turns out multiculturalism isn’t just a value—it’s what’s for dinner. 🛒🇦🇺 #AusPol

@JoseMLuna Given Nolan was not afraid of casting against type, I thought a Shohreh Aghdashloo or Hiam Abbass would have worked well. Or if she needed to be a nymph-type, maybe Juno Temple even. Theron is fine but doesn’t really lend the character gravitas beyond what would be expected.

Only one character was miscast in The Odyssey and it was Calypso, easily the weakest performance in the whole movie

The vacation house doesn't have the standard random assortment of tapes or DVDs, so instead I must present to you the VHS movies on a rack outside a secondhand shop in Canada and ask: What are you watching? I actually feel drawn to THE REAL MCCOY.

@OneLuckyGay @HershiiLiqcour Alaska in All Stars 2 won even more. I guess you’ll she deserved all of those and it wasn’t rigging that it is all these years later, apparently, but seasons have had favourites for a long time now.

'THEY'D BE THRILLED' 🎉 After 51 goals from 23 VFL games since being drafted, Jay Polkinghorne was finally unleashed at the top level on Thursday night. It's safe to say he looked right at home. The 3-2-1 from #AFLCatsSaints ✍️ bit.ly/4fBpII6

@cdg1228 @JillFilipovic It does help women and just amazing that it took so long. Instead of defending the man who tried to justify the increase she should have pointed out the wrongs of the past to women. Amazing how women did not scream about this law before. Guess it took time to get over Clinton!

“And what I think is important to know is a lot of the increase in rape also comes from an expanded definition of what counts as rape, as well as survivors coming forward for acts that took place years prior,” Mamdani said. “And we are thankful for them coming forward, the courage and the bravery it takes, but just to provide New Yorkers with that context.” In 2024 New York instituted a new law that, per the NYPost, "classifies rape as nonconsensual or forcibly compelled sexual intercourse, oral sexual conduct or anal sexual conduct after previously defining rape as only nonconsensual or forcibly compelled vaginal penetration by a penis." So... New York (rightly!) expanded the definition of what counts as rape. More survivors (thankfully!) came forward. As a result, official rates of rape increased. So Mamdani was... right and everyone is just yelling about this in bad faith?

@DragBasee PJ’s outfit was ugly as a drag look and even worse as a project runway design. And their drag race attitude was embarrassing. Read the room. Glad they experienced some humility.

Lorde calls out Spotify in new post: “Hey @spotify i'm gonna go out on a limb n say we don't want this. Not only is this inaccurate (not the song i did that in) but reducing a song to an ai generated meaning right at the source feels like it limits free interpretation imo. At least make it possible for artists to opt out please💘”

@Traffy23 @okitsRGS Cinemas lacking proper screen masking is a blight and something that a lot of people maybe never really noticed but is often missing these days that would help situations like this.

@okitsRGS You go to movies to be j Immersed. Doing giant black bars on the side will ruin immersion. There's optimal viewing distances for TV's, same with projections. And if it's too small it ruins immersion. You're not missing story by not seeing the edge. You're missing immersion.

@pittworldwide I’d also note that music criticism has caught up to this genre in a way that allows for such (near) universal acclaim and attention. The likes of Swift and Rodrigo and Eilish mean you can’t just swipe away female artists in even the more ‘reputable’ outlets. dance music as well.

@rockmarooned Would prefer he shoots it that way for IMAX and then edits it for other formats rather shoot in 2.35:1 and nobody gets to experience it in any other way. It’s a speciality and people will be paying extra for it.

I guess I can't fault people for believing these kinds of things passionately, but isn't it just exhausting to go, ACTUALLY, it's DUMB AND BAD to shoot a whole movie with IMAX cameras for the first time ever because that version will not receive equally wide distribution!

@glenndunks I had this same exact thought yesterday. If they made Jurassic Park today Dr. Grant would be played by Chris Hemsworth and he'd be some ex special forces turned paleontologist.

I think there’s something to be said about actors that look like real people as well everything that goes into the character. Sam Neill was in his mid-40s, looked like he had lived a life and was dressed ordinarily. He nor Dern or anyone else had unnatural covert CIA abilities.
Alf@auf

Obrigado, Sam Neill, por olhar pra uma paisagem vazia com tanta emoção que me fez acreditar, naquela sala escura de cinema em 1993, que dinossauros eram reais
