Movies (and occasionally face slaps) (Part 1)

Awesome I mean you can’t go wrong either way.

After you watch The Game, you need to watch (or rewatch) Game Night. The perfect double feature.

Everything in the whole movie is preposterous! It’s supposed to come to a preposterous climax.

Nothing even comes close to that though. I was there with them for the rest of the stuff.

Yah this criticism to me is like going to a Fast and Furious movie and complaining that’s not how cars work.

I know! That’s the price of admission for the premise of the movie lol

There’s cars doing crazy shit, and then there’s someone saying 2+2=5 and expecting me to buy it because it’s a movie.

You forgot to mention how quickly he was cool with the whole thing.

Michael Douglas: (legit attempts suicide)
(attempt fails only due to safeguards put up by others)
Other characters: “We were just kidding!”
Michael Douglas: “Aw fuck, lolz, you got me. Well, there’s a dime I have to go ask out, I’ll see you gentlemen later.”

Just outstanding stuff.

The movie is called THE GAME. If he ends up just killing himself, it undermines the whole premise. It must end with things going back to normal.

Danny boyee!

In the book, Mr. Ullman was a miserable asshole. It’s no great crime to shift gears on that when adapting, but I’m always curious as to why Kubrick went exactly opposite of that here.

I’m trying to get up the nerve to convince my film club to watch Q: The Winged Serpent starring my dudes David Carradine and Richard Roundtree rocking it about as hard as dudes have ever rocked it. Of course it’s on the Tubi, where else will you find gems like this?

Unbelievable levels of dudes rocking it.

Just watched Morocco and now I am going to yell about it to everyone who gets upset about drag shows… MFers, Marlene Dietrich was rocking a tuxedo and kissing a woman in the 1930 and straight people continued to exist, so clearly there is no level of drag swag that can turn everyone gay.

Completely right imo. Incredibly rare to have a movie ruined by its ending instead of its overall 3rd act but they pulled it off here. TF was that? Pretty sure I saw it in the theaters at 21 and more or less had those thoughts.
