#i genuinely did enjoy the movie

[photofinder]

saw godzilla x kong

good movie, fun, nothing particularly earth-shattering but I dont think it had to be (nor did it want to be)

but

I'm not sure that Godzilla X Kong was. the best title for it. Whoever came up with it has NO idea what X is used for in fanfiction, clearly...

#i genuinely did enjoy the movie #i love non-earth environments #well its technically earth but like #it might as well not be #but thats why i enjoy the Avatar movies as much as i do #i think scar king was a good villain #its pretty clear he acts the way he does because he wants to and KNOWS he can get away with it #its the human-level intelligence there right #the other kaiju are mostly just animals #big animals sure #but animals #with exceptions but like #theyre just doing as animals do #scar king is a classic villain though #like ghidorah he knows exactly what hes doing and is relishing in it #godzilla x kong #godzilla x kong the new empire

Velma (2023) is to Scooby Doo what Teen Titans Go! is to Teen Titans (2003)

#when your show is worse than teen titans go you know you really messed up #and even then the worst thing teen titans go did was just make the script bad and too many fart jokes #velma hates its characters; made them two dimensional; got rid of the main character #but you know what good bc they woulda ruined scooby #they made daphne vapid and dumb; fred’s a misogynistic bully; shaggy isn’t even shaggy; and velma’s judgmental and mean #at least teen titans go likes its source material #i genuinely enjoyed the crossover movie between go! and the 2005 OG’s #also apparently it isnt Teen Titans 2005 it’s Teen Titans 2003; so… sorry about that #i think i put the 5 bc it has 5 seasons? who knows but ya’ll know what im talking about either way #velma 2023 #velma show #hbo velma #scooby doo #velma dinkley #teen titans #teen titains go

final movie thoughts: i loved the story a lot it was really good. i think the only thing it suffered from was pacing issues. everything else was magnificent

#wish there were more genuine jumpscares :( #It started off slow in a good way #the climax just went a bit too fast for me #but i really REALLY enjoyed the story #i liked what they did with vanessa's character i thought it was cool #fnaf movie spoilers #The costume and set design is absolutely GORGEOUS #casting 10/10 #you already know im listening to the whole credits for the song

hyperfixations will make you do insane things like watch the 2009 live action movie adaptation twice in one week.

Should watch Ben 10: Alien Swarm (2009). it’s awesome #I also really enjoy how the characters interact w eachother it feels genuine the actors did a good job. clasps my hands behind my back. #ITS A GOOD ADAPTATION. THEY DID A GOOD JOB. ITS COOL. ITS KINDA STUPID IN A REALLY FUN WAY. OKAY. OKAY. (I am booed off stage) #Grandpa Max is kind of an asshole in it tho. :/ #Like. yeas ok it was made in 2009 & it’s a Cartoon Network TV movie adaptation of. BEN 10. however. I Like it 🫶🫶🫶 #I’m gonna make people watch it with me 🫵 mutuals come here let’s watch Ben 10 alien swarm (2009)

Suffering more than Jesus atm (being a fan of 80s/90s Suicide squad in 2024)

#god amanda waller what did they do to you.... #i KNOW i never shut up about this but GUYS ITS SO BAD #fucking WHY would you take the interesting antihero protagonist and then strip her of any redeeming quality and use her as this horrific #unforgivable villain who is treated as a hated antagonist in her own comics #WHERE SHE ISNT EVEN THE MAIN CHARACTER MOST OF THE TIME #like why are you trying to make me sympathize with fucking harley quinn or smth when the actual main character is right there. why are we #turning her into this horrific villain w a million master plans making deals with the devil and shit. #we are supposed to like her. like maybe not all dc fans do because shes almost always an antagonist in other books but in her own shes the #main character!!! there should be some aspect of interest or sympathy for her. as opposed to just making her like badass or whatever #so sick of this #and its in freaking EVERYTHING right now on god i cant read other comics that are otherwise good (like ga) and enjoy them without the #obligatory intense demonification of one of my fave characters #like shes my no 6 in locg for a reason i genuinely love waller like yeah she sucks sometimes but shes INTERESTING. #this is not interesting or creative in any way what theyre doing with her #this genuinely could have been any government baddie like honestly #dont flatten 3 dimensional characters into 1 dimension (or at best like 1.5) to tell a story you tell the story around the 3d characters. #why do i need to say this. basic competent storytime #blah #amanda waller #istg i throw out another waller rant every freaking tuesday on here #suicide squad #you know what. at least we had the movie #you heard me. higher hopes for the new gunn dceu series than actual comics for the forseeable future #viola davis save me... #need to do a bit of 00s reading still to verify but on god watch this all come down to a fucking new 52 thing. like not to say that i think #thats where it all went wrong bc i need to read more to verify but i have an idea of what rlly did it and i think it was a nu52 decision #but then again maybe im stupid

I can sit and critique forever as I am the world's proudest hater but I do feel that a lot of the snark around Vengeful is just people crucially misunderstanding the point of the villains universe. it's fucking camp! everything is self aware and overdramatic and reads like a published (albeit very good) fanfiction. if you're in specific circles you absolutely recognise the tropes schwab is pulling from and the tongue in cheek references she makes and all of them are on some base level FUNNY. I don't think it can be read with 100% gravitas because as much as it is brutal and visceral and about extremely traumatized people desperately clutching onto each other because carrying on feels easier than trying something new, it is also a book in which the girlboss mafia leader queen gets taken out by a naked college quarterback . schwab likes nice and wrapped up endings and after dealing with stief and Muir it is a BREATH OF FRESH FUCKING AIRRRR

#vengeful ve schwab #in terms of crit her overexpansive casts mean that ppl like mitch who SHOULD be central get shoved into lampshadeland #but i did find the new characters entertaining if not endearing #mostly bc i did not expect them to be pleasant and they were not. june is ALSO a manipulative selfish evil shithead #the marcella thing... yeah ok she was erm. very 2016. but her dying immediately during her final hoedown was the funniest thing ever #i think despite the intent vengeful reads like a middle book in a trilogy Nd doesnt hold up on its own . but EYE would be fine with it #i do enjoy how victor never loses. im so sick of my protagonists dying in poignant ways give me my marvel movie dennis reynolds #vicious ve schwab #also the june/sydney 3 year thing was extremely weak and 1) how fucking old is june maam that is a MINOR 2)i thought the same abt eli #in book1 and he really pulled thru so well in this one i genuinely kind of forgot about the murders. fascinating dude. unfixable #like was the ending of vengeful terribly rushed and lackluster. sure but im genuinely not mad at all about it #its a very fun sandbox

When there's a show that has lots of combat but little to no killing, there's usually a reason for that. I don't just mean the target audience being children (which is a stupid claim anyway, kids can handle way more shit than adults give them credit for), I mean a Watsonian explanation

Aang doesn't kill because he believes it's against his pacifist culture

Batman doesn't kill because he believes in second chances

Vash doesn't kill because it would make Rem sad

But when it comes to the rwby world, the whos and whys of killing... aren't really there?

The villains kill on-screen often, which is a given since, yknow, villains. But our heroes have never had a discussion of how far they're willing to go for their goals

It could've been established during any of the Salem talks, but instead the writers handle it with kid gloves with that Saturday morning cartoon "How do I destroy Salem?" Like, we saw a whole ass human being turned to ash, ShawLuna, you can say "kill," I promise

Due to this, I thought the dynamic was "villains kill, heroes don't," which is fairly typical for shows with this tone

And then Adam was murdered. On screen. By two of our heroes

It was genuinely jarring. There was no lead up to this kind of action, no talk of "doing whatever it takes" or "we have to prepare to do things we might live to regret." Just BAM STAB DEAD

And not even a conversation after! There's literally nothing to distinguish the before/after murder versions of Yang and Blake, which is bad! You took a whole ass man's life! Blake knew him personally! His dreams, his fears, the way he took his coffee, the whole nine yards! Even if it had to be done, that should still have a major affect! Hell, my best friend cried for hours after a bird hit the windshield on our road trip, yet these two are totally okay with ending a person

Even stranger, there has yet to be actual blood spilled by our heroes after that. Not even a skinned knee! Deaths happen around them, not because of them

You've already opened the door for the reaper, you might as well let it settle in for tea

#rwde #its no surprise they pull out the only hero murder on the face of the racism plot #they really hated adam for no reason huh #i genuinely cant tell who they enjoy writing other than blonde screenhog #but seriously tho why havent ruby or weiss spilled actual blood? they have blades ffs itd be easy as hell #or why didn't shawluna take inspiration from the disney movie and just shove adam off the cliff for the classic/cliche villain fall? #is it bc neo came back? did they have to implement the horror rule of 'if there aint a body they aint dead' #it just feels so weird how murder is handled here #or harming people in general #easiest case in point: the narrative surrounding the dismemberment of yang vs tyrian #its more evidence that these writers have protagonist based morals rather than a solid foundation of anything in remnant #which given how they are irl... is it really a surprise? #ugh why did a show w such amazing potential get trapped in the hands of clowns im dying squirtle

You know what, I'm in a weird spot with that FNAF movie.

I don't think it was very good ! As a horror movie, it made me laugh because especially towards the end the mystery and atmosphere vanished to get Fazbear Franchise Points. Like. Not laugh in the way horror can make you startle-laugh, or laugh so self-soothe. In a way that is "oh god, I see what they wanted to do, and they failed, and this is so endearing, and also so funny".

But...

I enjoyed myself immensely. It had some really cool ideas, and i love love love the visuals. I'd recommend watching it, even.

I like despite how the writing feels flimsy, cardboardy at times, Mike felt real and is very consistent throughout the movie.

I like despite how that movie is trying to tell 4 different stories, not all of them horror, just weirdly breaking up narratively in ways that don't really make sense, it's trying to tell all of them with love and care for the characters.

I love how it's not a soulless cash grab adaptation, and how I can overlook the writing flaws and the one cameo and enjoy it because damn ! It's a whole movie about the giant murder robots ! Those giant murder robots I loved as a kid !

I, genuinely, think that writing wise, you could break it up in 2, maybe even 3 different movies that would all have enough substance to go for an hour and a half. Really, most of this movie's problem isn't the stories it's trying to tell. It's - pick your battles, that's too many battles, put some back.

But it was genuinely fun.

I wouldn't call it a "good movie", by my own standards, but I had 0 expectations and again I enjoyed myself immensely.

Go watch them giant robots. It's so cool. It's so cool.

#fnaf movie #hope it's fine to put in the main tag i genuinely enjoyed it #it's goofy at times #it feels nice #i wouldn't call it horror simply because that part is botched after the first half basically #it is a movie! #and a fun one at that #so yaeh #i watched it with my dad who never played the games or anything #he decided to watch it with me because it's- it's a thing he does it's 'read or watch what my kids like to be able to talk to them about it #he did it for the hunger games when i was in high school #and i think even before that he gave narnia a read when i was a baby ass kid ? #and he watched the eragon movie with me. etc. #he just does that. #anyway #he doesn't know anything about fnaf #and his conclusion was like that you can definitely watch it without knowing any of the context #and while he wasn't too keen on the way they dropped information - the infodump bits aren't super well thought out #he also said it was enjoyable! #he also several times wondered what kid would like these scary ass animatronics #and then i showed him real life chuck e cheese animatronics #and he was like oh okay. i guess it's not unbelievable then #literally for the first half of this movie that was his only gripe with it LMFAO #the first have does a nice job at horror tbh #the second half less because it's 'oh my god we have so many things to tell we're running out of TIME' #pacing is important!

Saw Gran Turismo tonight and honestly…it was really good.

#the trailers did not do this movie justice #I genuinely enjoyed it #my theatre was actually clapping and cheering Jan on in the races #it was so cute

[dana-chan-the-control-brain]

I love it when people think of me, and recommend things to me but are usually completely off base. Like the ball is in my yard, but you missed.

I just had the memory of my Mom recommending "Lala Land" to me cause "you love musicals"

And I did not enjoy that movie XD

#personal #I mean I like what I like #I can't explain why I didn't like that movie it just did not tickle my vibes #tickled my boredom tho #it was very soothing to fall asleep to #No disrespect to anyone who liked it obviously it just wasn't my thing #oh and this isn't me being sarcastic #I genuinely enjoy when folks recommend me something they think I'll like and I end up hating it #lol it's a very human moment

i personally did not like the barbie movie but i did like ken and youve made me love ken more with your kenposting. he really did carry the film imo and he is also very sillay

its true it's literally his movey... i like him he is so sillay and perfect. He's almost a reskin of Al but on opposite ends of a certain scale so definitely absolutely my type of guyy

#evilhearted statements i did understand the Point of the movie it just wasnt delivered well to me #anonymous #skunk mail #also i get u. i feel if ryan gosling wasnt ken it wldnt be the same and i wldve just watched it once like #well ok that was fun lolll...it was fun and funny! but even when i do regular rewatches #that arent just ken focused i always skip through. the especially heavyhanded parts. which is a lot. i understand why ppl didnt enjoy it. #im tethered to it by ken #kenposting #i genuinely cant watch the first sasha scene. or the car scene. or the monologue. skip.
