Gotta say, the full assault on artists on here and in life in general is getting Goddamn old

Same.

Owarimonogatari anime

The worst is the manga ones because they basically post 75 percent of the book without adding anything but their own narration. It's a massive abuse of fair use and a huge waste of people's time.

Yoru yelling "People of Oregon!! Give me power!!"

Chainsaw Man is simultaneously worthy of serious discussion for its heartfelt look at society and cycles of abuse and dehumanization, and it's also like, a fantastic nonstop barrage of shitposts

It's crazy how many people just summarize the whole story of a Manga on YouTube and call it good, while adding almost no analysis or reaction.

For graphic novels, especially adult genre fiction, it's incredibly helpful to review it online, talk about it, recommend it to a friend—adult fiction in the graphic novel space is difficult to place, and nothing convinces readers that they'll like a book more than the personal testimonial.

Definitely moreso. I just think he's a bad match for Pynchon material. He doesn't do the more whimsical side very well.

Damn fun might be overselling it. Could probably edit the film down a tight 90 minutes and it might be fun at that point.

I spent lots of time chatting with the Nazi bot on Nazi dot com and giving ad revenue to the world’s richest Nazi in order to create these screenshots that you’ll hate. Enjoy

It's a very cute movie.

Like I would say this is a film that was more interested in the way the rug rolls perfectly over the trap door after it closes.

Yeah like I said, I thought the film was really about the fetish of filming people moving in an orchestrated manner through spaces. The whole scene where Del Toro is evacuating his residence is a very good set piece. But it's not REAAALLLY about immigration/ICE etc.

It almost felt like a movie the Coen Brothers would make, but not executed with the same panache.

It's probably difficult to get funding and big stars if you do. In some ways, there's something very old hollywood about it--though possibly even more vapid. There are bits of I liked: Sean Penn's walk, the final chase scene, Benecio Del Toro--the scene where they decide to kill Penn's character

I haven't but that's why I was interested in checking it out. But it really lacked in the weirdness of Pynchon.

You're probably right in that the people who like it, like it as some kind of revolutionary thing, but are too self-serious to understand how they are being made fun of. And then there's maybe also an aspect of "Emperor's New Clothes" with regards to PTA's recent films mixed in.

Really? Do they not get that the film mocks them as unserious ineffectual clowns who will snitch on each other the moment anything gets tough?

The film is an exercise in dilettantism. I think you are better off watching the films of Chris Morris if you want satirical horror.

The best performance was actually the army interrogator who was playing themselves I think. He's genuinely terrifying. But underscores how unserious the film actually treats anything it is talking about.

It's like the beginning of that one Bunuel film but for almost 3 hours and absent any sexual fetishes.

Fundamentally One Battle After Another is a film about how people move through different spaces, sometimes alone, sometimes in groups. Nothing the characters say really means anything, and their affiliations are arbitrary and unserious.

I don't like art that is "in on the joke" or that has any kind of "knowing winks to the audience"
