Starz is a joke of a streaming service, I can’t believe anyone would pay for this. They zoom in on widescreen movies to fill the TV screen instead of presenting the original aspect ratios

I thought it was just a one time thing with Miami Vice (2006), but nah I went to watch The Thin Red Line and they zoomed that shit in too. Sad that a bunch of headasses who don’t clearly give the slightest shit about movies run these garbage “streaming services.” Peacock is a free service and they had Miami Vice in the...
I know it's not that old but holy cow is MI: Fallout a great movie to rewatch.

The motorcycle chase, the bmw chase, the frickin helicopter chase, the stunts, the pacing, the twists, the bathroom fight and the cliffside brawl. All top notch. No crazy jumpcuts. Cinematography was on point, sound was perfect. Henry Cavill was great casting choice. If you've been waiting for a fast paced action flick...
Why did Looney Tunes Back in Action bomb so hard?

This has been asked before, but I never got a clear answer. This film bombed so hard, Looney Tunes stop making theatrical movies up until this year! It bombed real badly, and I don’t know why. The animation is great, the voice acting is great, (unlike Space Jam) there isn’t an overly sexualized character, at least for...
Who typically plays heros but would be better as a villian?

Or even the other way around. Actors like Matthew McConaughey or Benedict Cumberbatch who in most cases (except in Cumberbatch's case) play the hero but in their occasional villainous roles like Mcconaughey's Dark tower appearance feel more impactful in the opposite sense or Mads Mickelson in star wars as the hero character...

But thanks to some zesty new character dynamics and smart twists, Marvel have finally done...
What false movie facts, trivia, or behind-the-scenes stories are you sick of hearing about?

All too often I'll be reading a film article, or a comment, or a reddit post, only to see people touting a completely false 'fact' as 100% true. It grinds my gears that people are reading these and believing these myths as facts. Are there any incorrect pieces of movie trivia that you would like to complain about? For...
What do you think is the most unrealistic survived death in a movie?

I was watching Hot Fuzz the other day and, SPOILERS, towards the end of it, Nick Frosts character gets shot with a blunderbuss at point blank range and is then caught in the police station explosion. He ends up surviving this. This got me thinking about characters surviving unrealistic deaths.Now obviously Hot Fuzz is...
Anybody else hate IMDb's new design?

I've been a semi-obsessive user of IMDb for almost a decade now. Anytime I watch a film I immediately go on there after and vacuum up all of the info. The trivia, the goofs, budget info etc. I check out the full cast and crew, check out what other actors from it have been in etc. and usually find myself going down a rabbit...
Joe Versus the Volcano was way ahead of its time.

A movie about a guy with undiagnosed PTSD, anxiety and depression, struggles with his terrible boss in a dead end job with little to no medical benefits, goes broke paying for doctors to figure out why he feels terrible. Finally is diagnosed with mental health problems along with a terminal illness and told to take a...

I can't stop rewatching Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

Saw this when it came out in the theater with my wife. We both have similar tastes in movies but i came out of the theater on a cinematic high and my wife was meh.Once i was able to watch it at home, i tested it out to see if i still liked it and i just keep liking it more every time i watch it.We are not hardcore tarantino...
Peter Jackson's last movie before the lord of the rings trilogy, The frighteners (1996) may be my favourite from the director.

I don't really see this movie talked about very often. Michael J Fox is great and does something we haven't really seen him do before, playing a social outcast suspected of murdering his wife. Full of great, memorable characters with pretty great visual effects. Love the story, setting, set design and especially the score...
I unironically love Tenet

I feel like this sub has almost nothing but hate for Tenet, but I actually loved it, which is pretty odd considering I'm a kid lol.A lot of people don't like this movie because it's very VERY confusing, but I love films that make you think and Tenet is a perfect example, especially now when the norm is stuff like the...
This last week, I finally watched No Country for Old Men, Sicario, and Hell or High Water. And I am obsessed.

Like I said, I finally sat around and watched these movies. And HOLY SHIT. I don’t know what this “genre” would be called. But I want more of these films. The acting. The story. The small cast of characters. I am thoroughly obsessed, and am constantly seeking out more like it.I can’t believe I waited so long to watch...
One of the (countless) great things about The Mask of Zorro (1998) is how it feels like a sequel to a movie we never saw.

The Mask of Zorro is the story of Alejandro, whos is trained by the old Diego de La Vega to be his successor as Zorro.The movie starts in the past with Diego de La Vega as an slowly out of his prime Zorro being confronted by governor Rafael, his archenemy. It is very much the last duel of the original Zorro, a conclusion...
EuroTrip (2004) is a massively over-looked, super rewatchable comedy from the early 2000s

The entire film is genius. I've watched it both drunk and sober, equally enjoyable. The characters are incredibly quotable and the film making is top notch for what it is.The actors do a really good job. Everyone seems to be having a blast, and the script is equal part hallarious and absurd. It combines a stereotypical...
I finally saw Looper (2012)

I had been wanting to see this film literally since it came out. I finally sat down and watched it, and boy, what a ride. I love the premise, this is the way a time travel movie should be done. The time travel serves the story, and the film doesn't over complicate it or let itself get caught up in exposition like some...
“A Wrinkle in Time” looks and sounds like a talented group of Hollywood people tried to make a $100M film on a $10K budget in 24hrs as a fun challenge.

This film looks and sounds like bare bones. There is little immersion by way of set design, the dialogue is in dire need of “weathering,” and the costumes looked like they were pulled from a college runway.The makeup is the only exception. It doesn’t look like it was applied by anyone with any talent at all. The makeup...
Telling your son you watched the original Fast and Furious (2001) movie in theatre while watching Fast 9 (2021), is the equivalent of watching GoldenEye (1995) with you father and him telling you he saw The Man with the Golden Gun (1974) in theatre

I finally watched Tucker and Dale vs Evil (2011)

And it was awesome. Such a great satire of the traditional horror movie. It used basically every trope and then inverted them in very creative ways. The ending might leave some wanting, but it worked for me.But what really surprised me about this film was how fundamentally wholesome it was. Tucker and Dale, and especially...
