Currently I can only find screenings of the Brutalist in Toronto (which is very far from where I live). Does anyone know if or when the Brutalist will be getting a wider release in Canada?

This may be a cliche topic, but I think that with Arcane Season 2 , and the upcoming release of the second season of Squid Game, we can start to think of the question. What are the best series that are Netflix original?

If we want to cut down the most famous ones, I will say that for example, I liked Money Heist, it's true that the famous deus ex Machina, and the ability that the Professor had to pull the most nonsense escape for a situation was weird, I liked it, the action was on point, so was the soundtrack, and I liked it.

Also the Umbrella Academy, was a weird one for me, the first and second seasons were peak to me, Season 3 was weird, because I felt it like everything was cheaper, the things looked more fake, the scenarios ( due to the pandemic I hope ), but I had hopes for Season 4, and it was bad, I did not like it, the humor wasn't there, the jokes weren't enough, and it fell off big time for me.

Now Stranger Things for example is mostly great, but it just keeps repeating the same formula, it starts with the kids living their lifes, then the Upside Down starts to attack somehow, then somebody starts investigating, and before you know it, they are fighting a demogorgon in Russia, or fighting against a giant spider in a mall, or stuff like that. Sometimes it feels rushed, and Season 4 was long, I am talking about an hour an episode type of long. The show is good, but they better change some things or the way things work, maybe not that much, but a little of variation would help.

Now shows like Wednesday or Outer Banks, are normal to me, I wanted to watch Wednesday when they announced it because I was like, "Oh, a family addams show, directed by the same guy who did a Nightmare before Christmas, it could be cool". It wasn't, they didn't let Tim Burton get all his weirdness out of him, and I liked the cast, Emma Myers with Minecraft, and A good girl guide to murder makes me think that she is a great actress, and Jenna Ortega with stuff like A24 films, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice was gold to me.

Outer Banks was hard, because the first season was great, but I didn't like this prompt of: "Remember the last season's treasure, well, forget about it, because now we have a bigger treasure to find, that is connected to the previous treasure." And maybe the decisions of killing certain characters weren't the best, but eh, what do I know

And that was it, a little longer but anyways, what do you guys think?

The teaser poster for the next Superman has been released.
Then the teaser trailer for the next Superman will be released.
And finally we will have the disappointing teaser for the next Superman.
Let's hope not, but it happens often now.
We'll talk about it again in July.

Tuesday at approximately 10:16PM I intended to go into the movie theater to watch a movie. However, it was closed. Not sure what’s going on in the movie world or regal cinemas but they need to stay open for a later time.

Some of you may know this, some of you might not, but 2025 will be a great year for the movie industry, at least that's what it seems at first.

There will be a lot of special movies for every different genre available.

So I will tell you the ones that I think could be the best of each one.

If you are into blockbusters and want to see THE movies of the year, you might be looking for example Avatar 3, the next of James Cameron multimillionaire "franchise", or maybe if you are more into videogames, watch the Minecraft Movie, it is true, that the first trailer was extremely hated, but I have hope now with the new trailer that has been released, it won't be the best movie, but it could be a funny one, next in line is Superman by James Gunn, and with the poster and score released, I have hope that this could be the reborn that DC needs right now.

Of course there are other blockbuster movies like F1 filmed in Imax, maybe the new how to train your dragon movie, the new Karate Kid movie, FnaF 2, Fantastic 4, the new Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning, Thunderbolts, and other ones, but those are my hopes that they may not be the best one( looking at Minecraft ), but I do have hope for them, at least most of them.

Looking at more family stuff, watch Elio the new Pixar film centered around a kid that has been abducted by aliens and has to represent the Earth, now the change of director, really changed the feeling of the movie, because in the teaser, Elio seems scared about being abducted, but in the second one he is trying to get abducted, I don't know if the changes were for the better, but I will give it a shot,

Now into more movies we have Black Phone 2( loved the first one ), the new Saw movie, and my hopes are on Nosferatu by Robert Eggers, the director of the Northman and the Witch could really give the mood that the vampire needs.

So those were my movies, and now tell me what are your movies, and what do you think?

I remember watching movies like dead poet society, 12 angry men, eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, curious case of Benjamin button and be taken away into a different world.

The crazy movies like Blue, white and red trilogy, the entire godfather. So on and on….

The movies were a part of my world which I really cherished. Now it feels like just very good colours, lots of dynamic shots, same or similar stories that you can predict, crazy vfx.

It feels dreadful, like I don’t know how to appreciate movies anymore.

Is it just me or there are others as well who feel the same.

Please suggest me some movies.

We have done it, we have gotten into a point where we believe that certain types of movies that just weren't even an idea before, are the standard nowadays. Hollywood prefers to reboot old franchises, and I know that what I am talking isn't new, many people have talked about it, but it feels weird. You wanna know why, studios like A24 are having a massive success right now?

Because they do different kinds of movies(sometimes), most recently the movies that A24 will release, are Queer,Babygirl,Heretic,Y2K and other ones.

Movies like Y2K that are extremely different than the soft, pale movies like the Lighthouse, or Moonlight are what makes them different.

Now you have studios like Disney that keeps doing live action remakes that nobody asked for. And now they are doing sequels of every imaginable franchise, because they don't have enough creativity, we are going to have Toy Story 5, when it should have ended at the third one.

But anyways, I won't change anything so what do you think?

Bonjour ! Je ne comprends pas bien la fin/moral de ce film "Les Banshees d'Inisherin" 🤔 Si des personnes l'ont déjà vu, n'hésitez pas à partager vos ressentis !

I would like to start going to the movies again

Is there a name to this specific kind of opening/intro? If not, can anyone recommend me any similar ones? Kind of like Casino Royale and Its a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World too.

Hello,

I am looking for the name of this actress.

I can't find it.

Thanks for your help.

It may not seem like it when you go to my profile at my age I’m a big gamer I have posts about jak and daxter, but I grew up in the 60s and 70s. Now on to the real topic.

Before all this Netflix crap or streaming crap when you wanted to catch the latest movie you had to get your ass up and go to the theatre, and usually you wouldn’t be lucky enough to catch it on tv because there were fewer channels back in those days unless the film was really really special then maybe, but even then you didn’t have all night to watch it because television signed off at midnight and there was no way to record it either if you missed it.

We also didn’t have vhs, no that did not come out until the late 70s. If you couldn’t go to the theater then you missed the film simple as that. Those days you had to get up off your ass there were no computers or phones you could be glued to. That’s the issue with the younger generation they wouldn’t last a week in the 60s or 70s. Those were the best times to be alive.

Starting with the 80s to currently computers slowly started to become more of a thing and vhs was everywhere it gave more of an excuse for people to become lazy, hey I can just go to the store and pick up this vhs, people became more of homebodies, it continued into the 90s and by 1995 the final nail in the coffin the internet was made public.

Imagine wanting to see the godfather in the 70s you’d have to go to the theater that would have been your only choice if you missed it. Then oh well you’d have to be lucky enough to catch it on what little Channels we had.

not sure if maybe it was just my cinema but I went to go see wicked today and the cinema just never shut up or sat still. One woman behind me brought both her kids, one looked about 2 years old and did not shut up throughout the entire movie, screaming and shouting. The other young girl kept kicking my chair even when I politely asked her if she could stop. People were on their phones, answering calls, one woman was vaping in front of me?? people were running??😭😭 it’s a bit funny but also it pissed me off since this movie was so good and I just wanted to enjoy it in peace…

Anyone else had this problem??

Those who haven't seen... Do take some efforts please and watch this masterpiece.

You will appreciate it even if you are from any Country but more so if you are from India.

It's pure cinema, period.

View Poll

For me it was (2005) Hide and Seek. I called it from seeing the trailer...

I may be overreacting, but the movie The Order was something I wanted to see, according to google, it was released in theaters on Dec. 6. It is ONE WEEKEND later and I already can’t see it in local theaters. I don’t get the industry these days, movies that aren’t backed by huge franchises or production companies have no chance in hell with getting a proper screening in theaters anymore.
