Octopusssy:

I've heard about it. It's a pretty sick and perverted movie

joseph1832:
exactly how sick and perverted are we talking about. The movie has piqued my curiosity for a while, but heck, I don't like watching what will disturb my thought process...

Lol, I remember how people Wan chop my head after I gave "Gladiator" a 7.5 rating or so.

Or rating the Coen Brothers Oscar winning film, "No Country For Old Men" low.

JackBizzle:


Some men are meant to simp

Octopusssy:

Past Lives is so simple and relatable because it imitates life. Majority of us live very simple, mundane lives as portrayed in the movie

Octopusssy:
I loved this movie. "Fvck"! 😂😭😂

Illusioneffect:

well deserved snub. You should watch The Boy and the Heron, you'ld totally understand. The award is for best "animated" film and the award was made for the Boy and the Heron

Cyril009:


where did you watch

abduleez1:


I'm happy that film got snubbed. Cos all it was just vibes and insha'Allah in that category. It's not bad. In fact it's good but I feel it's massively over hyped compared to the other competitors.

Kaycee7:
Overhyped compared to Nimona and Elemental? Are you for real right now?

Chibudollar:
WONDERFUL WONDERFUL WONDERFUL

The win i am most happy about from last night/this morning is that of Christopher Nolan.

What an astute filmmaker! and i keep scratching my head, how this is his first "personal win" off the ridiculously good movies he makes. he puts the same dedication and hard work into all his flicks. Oppenheimer is a phenomenal motion picture, but Christopher Nolan has been due an oscar, like forever!, for interstellar at the very least!

i am glad he didn't need to bend over and make some typa "woke oscar baity" flick to get The Academy to notice him.


i sincerely can't wait for the next project/flick his genius mind fashions out!

What if this is a past life as well, and we are already something else to each other in our next life? Who do you think we are then?
This touched me hardddd! You'ld love Perfect Days then

Oscars na tonight and yet I never still watch major contenders like, POOR THINGS, AMERICAN FICTION, THE HOLDOVERS, ANATOMY OF A FALL despite downloading almost all. 🥲🥲😤

Octopusssy:

From what I read, it's a movie where sexual and graphic violence is gleefully portrayed without apology. It is just...a very violent movie.

Based on what I read 🤷

armadeo:


It was always a top contender. The movie is a masterpiece

oyaskii:
"Perfect Days 2023"

"Driving through the streets of a neon dripped Tokyo skyline whilst listening to Lou Reed and The Rolling Stones on Cassette tape?... These are the Perfect Days!"


Japanese Cinema once again man!. This was an archy-type of the movies they have be making in recently. This was mundane, in a good way, not quick to action or dialogue. Just 2 hours of a man finding joy in toilet cleaning, listening to oldies on an obsolate form of media, reading books and looking up each day to the skies of Tokyo to take in a slice of the meaning of life amidst the pull of the monotonous routine that is our everyday struggle.

The film serves as a reminder that there is great admirable beauty in life amidst all the chaos and there is actually alot to be thankful for!

7/10 💚

"Poor Things" (2023).

Bella Baxter: "Why do people not just do this all the time?! (Referring to sex btw, or as she succinctly calls it, "Furious Jumping" 😊)."

Yorgos Lanthimos has always been known to make these weird genre bending flicks that looks subtle on the surface but carries a punchy message if you bothered to look deeply and with Poor Things, he has come full circle.

Obnoxious comedy?, Gothic comedy?, Sci fi romance? It didn't really fit into any genre box as it encompasses them all.
With every scene, looking like an art piece frame with delightful color grading straight out of the book of Wes Anderson , the masterful use of fish eye lenses catapults us into the psychedelic world of Victorian London, where a Bella Baxter, a fully grown woman goes on a journey of "self discovery" including (NSFW) how the hands can bring immense pleasure to how a tool possessed by men can bring even more pleasure than the hands 😉.

Oddly enough, it has a "tobacco depiction" warning at the very beginning but i am afraid that would be the least of your worries seeing this. It starts off innocently, but as you peel away, it becomes more graphic without any hint of plausible morality to fully drive home the narrative of the flick.

Mark Ruffalo as "Duncan Wedderburn" was a peerless performance, He gave us a hint as a recovering s3x addict in "Thanks for Sharing (2012), but it takes it up a notch here, trust me, you'd want to see, a raunchy and Hot Mark! and that oscar nom was deserving.

Emma Stone as Bella Baxter, Good Lord!, it was a bold, audacious, "full frontal" and funny mix of supreme acting!. Sandra Hüller and Lilly Gladstone delivered all timers in their respective roles but any other actress doing what Emma Stone did here, would have surely ended thier careers but she came out flawless and that Oscar nod is all too deserving imo, in hindsight.

unbelievably funny, pleasantly bizzare, witty thoughtful and a totally gorgeous watch.

8/10.

I like conspiracies

Kaycee7:
Well, well! Look at my nigga enjoying a live-action slice of life. Hit me up anytime you decide you want to check out the genre in anime

Kaycee7:
Saw a clip of the "Excuse me, I must now go punch that baby." scene and it just had to go on my list.
I think the clip was barely 3 minutes long and yet it gave me a compelling argument on why Stone's Oscar win was definitely well deserved.
