GagaSine The Fame Popster 319 Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Watched two French horror films, Baby Blood (1990) and Inside (2007). Honestly I loved them both, both are about pregnant women so I sould avoid them if you are sensitive to that but I highly enjoyed both. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotDoctor PronounsHe/they Popster to Popster 4,584 Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Just watched Don’t Look Up and wow that movie just made be feel bad and hopeless The performances were stellar but if the guy who wrote and directed it could’ve stopped being a smarmy prick for like 20 minutes, I think there’s actually a really prescient film there. Felt like there was a little too much animosity toward the audience at times though, which detracted from its overall message to me. It’s hard to be invested when you feel the author is constantly talking down to an audience that is already on their side. Also satire is dead 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also satire is dead I agree, I just watched it and it felt like the movie thought it was smarter than it actually was. There was some stuff I appreciated but it didn't actually say meaningful things that much. Just ironic observations. The Ariana Grande bit especially rubbed me the wrong way. That isn't satire, that is literally her life & career... The set up was good but it didn't really pay off in a satisfactory way. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was still quite funny sometimes but overall very meh Yeah I agree. It was very straightforward parody/satire with a lot of cheap jokes. Fine for a popcorn flick but meh overall to me 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
