Family Star Movie: Vijay Deverakonda & Mrunal Thakur’s film.

Family Star Movie review: The biggest drawback of the Vijay Deverakonda-Mrunal Thakur film perhaps is Parashuram’s writing. The story itself is utterly dated and the treatment has no spark.

THE AMITYVILLE HORROR (1979)

This movie dragged a lot in the second half and was generally just not entirely compelling. The DeFeo family case is famous in that house (in real life) but the film lent itself more towards the paranormal aspects of what the Lutz family claimed to experience after the murders. An interesting take on the reported events but overall a drag.

(Trigger Warning Domestic Violence, Lots of Flies)

⭐⭐.5

To be entirely fair to the couple that buys the murder house, it looks VERY normal from the front and not like a creepy face like it does from the side… (I said out loud, “It looks like a normal house from the house.”) Oh, just kidding, the Lutz’ knew that a family got murdered in the house and they still want to buy it… Dumb and crazy folks who have three (3) kids! Bring them on down to the murder house! Also, why is the wife costumed like a little kid all the time? She's got pigtails with ribbons in and next is a school girl outfit? Weird.

The longer they stay in the house the more the husband goes mad and this is shown by his incessant chopping of wood (I wish I was kidding). This is in part because he is so cold he is constantly stoking the fire, but also so he can be a big scary man with an axe in his hands. Anytime someone from the church comes to the house they become very ill, are forced to leave and then aren’t able to come back. Their priest got blisters on his hand for even trying to call them on the telephone from miles away! Wack! But no one believes the priest even though this ordeal makes him go blind (I would have demanded the higher ups go to the Lutz’ house and tell me first hand how I was wrong).

There is bubbling black bile in the toilet, large groups of flies gathering in random rooms, and a (low-key) portal to hell in the basement… But otherwise things are fine. Also there is random nun basketball after the spousal abuse which is a nice palette cleanser (the basketball, not the abuse). On their final night in the house it is raining so hard, the dad snaps for some reason and thinks that there is like a pig demon inside?  So he heads in the house with his very sharp axe but the mom has hidden the children away. She battles the dad and somehow his illusion breaks because he tells her he would never hurt her (except the part where he almost murdered them all with an axe). 

They escape but realize they left a furry family member behind so the dad runs back in for the dog! I am really impressed! Dad takes a bit of a dip in the hell pit but Harry the dog helps pull his human out of the black bile. They get to the van and vanish! The Lutz family never returned to that hell house.

Superfan's Short Movie Reviews: "Wish"

From an animation studio that has now been around for a century, Disney's Wish is the kind of feel good movie you can take the whole family to see, and I mean that sincerely. This enjoyable feature has catchy songs, fun characters, and nice callbacks to the studios classic films but with a modern touch. A great mix of the old and the new.

You want to unlock some hidden memories from your childhood? Well, here's the key to one of them. I watched Rock-a-doodle last night with my boyfriend, it was his choice of movie as it was one of his favorites as a child. He said it unlocked some hidden memories, some nostalgia, whatnot.

This movie came out before I was born so I actually had no idea about this movie, had never heard of it. My boyfriend took joy in showing it to me, but uh.. He fell asleep during it so clearly he had no joy in the movie, I guess.

I actually love how dark cartoons used to be back in the 90's and earlier. People weren't afraid of showing their kids something dark and scary. I miss that.

That being said, this movie definitely has some dark and sinister plots within. Killer birds, low-key prostitution, and even what looks like penises in some scenes.

I enjoyed it.

Rotten Tomatoes gives this movie a 20% iMDB gives it a 6/10 stars.

I am with iMDB, giving it 6 stars. It was good and reminiscence but it's so crazy some of the plots older children movies had.

'All About My Father' Review: A Delightful Symphony of Comedy and Warmth

Dive into 'All About My Father,' a delightful family comedy starring Sebastian Maniscalco and Robert De Niro. Witness the hilarious cultural clash unfold in this heartwarming, laugh-filled cinematic gem.

As I seated myself in the bustling venue for the pre-release special screening of ‘All About My Father,’ hosted by Starburst Promotions at SterKinekor @ The Grove Mall in Pretoria, the air was thick with palpable anticipation and excitement. The place was brimming with celebrities and media personalities, including Neil Sandilands, Cobus Visser, Tiaan Massyn, as well as some media brands such as…

WDYM Anakin is Luke and Leia's dad

I dunno if this post will reach the Star Wars fandom but I hope it does because I'm sure you all will get a good laugh at me.

As of recent I have developed a good hiperfixation for Star Wars, the thing is I knew nothing. NOTHING about Star Wars besides the fact it had aliens and...a war...in space? And funny swords. And main character is Luke or something, I spent over 20 years ignoring anything about Star Wars and somehow missing most references out there.

And recently, literally less than a month ago I saw a gif and said to my partner "oh this guy this guy looks cool, this gif looks nice" and he said "Oh well, he's a good character." And it all developed into me watching Clone Wars, the animated series you know and...and I was kinda blown away, on my opinion the show IS GREAT. And I love every character and their interactions, I love how much they focus on side characters, and they all seem very well written. I got hiperfixated really fast and saw Anakin and I was like "Omg, babygirl. He's a blorbo now."

And because of the show, this was super unexpected, but somehow I also got, really got, into the ship with Padmé because omg, cool woman. Literal happy squeaky noises of someone who was in a bad state and needed some good ol' distraction and comfort.

Now, like I said I knew nothing about Star Wars as a whole. And I still haven't watched the movies, besides the ocassional gif?

So imagine my shock, my surprise, my...bewilderment when I realized.

"Wait a minute, LUKE IS ANAKIN'S SON?! HOLY-"

Ladies, gentleman, and others, I think I came very late to this party and I don't even know how it took me so long.

Not only that, but because of this sudden love for the series, I went to my friends circle like "BESTIE, GUESS WHAT, I HAVE A NEW BLROBO AND A NEW FAV SHIP AND EEEP"

And my friends are like "omg that's amazing, what is it?"

I tell them, and of course they all know these characters and they all react like they know this very bad secret fact and I got told several times already "Please, don't watch the episodes 2 and 3 alone, it will hurt."

I feel like blissfully walking among rainbows and blue skies while everyone else know that my future is doomed. Somehow.

(Uncomfortable silence)

Not only that, but then I spent a whole deal of time thinking "Where the heck I have seen these guys" cus there was some fmailiarity I couldn't just point out and then one day I woke up, brushed my teeth and of all sudden I realized and it was such a shock.

Do you know how SURREAL is to get very into a character, and into a ship, and then realize they're the same from that super widespread meme that has been around for who knows how much time?

I swear I thought that meme was from some old medieval fantasy movies or something.

But alas, Star Wars now is EVERYWHERE. People do references to Star Wars ALL THE TIME and it's just now I'm catching them.

I got spoilers. From a meme. In a youtube review that had nothing to do with Star Wars hah. Everything is a spoiler, the world is an apparent spoiler. Now I'm here, trying to avoid spoilers from something everyone seems to know, even my family knows. It's so surreal and I wouldn't have it any other way 😂

Anyways, if you read until here, know that a wild ride still waits me, cuz I'm only starting Season 3 of Clone Wars and I don't plan to watch the movies until I finish the series.

And yes, I made this blog just to ramble freely about SW and draw stuff because it sparked my inspiration after a long art block.

Have this doodle I drew after watching the two first episodes, my offering for you reaching this far.

Note: Wouldn't Anakin and Padmé's ship name be Animé? Cuz that's hilarious.

These folks watched a whole ass movie not realizing the main character was transgender and it was a 2 second kiss between men that made them lose their ever-loving minds.

It's amazing to me that if it weren't for those 2 seconds, many of these folks would have given this movie a 4 or 5 star review. But two seconds of the most vanilla, non-sexy, yet genuine and loving kiss somehow ruined every moment of enjoyment the previous 90 minutes brought them.

Imagine if they realized the trans allegory. I wish I had a way to tell them. I wish I had a way to make them realize they related to a trans character. That they rooted for them. That they accidentally empathized with a trans story.

This was a beautiful movie. In every sense. I really hope between this and Spider-Verse, we can have a moratorium on every 3D animated movie using this style of character design.

It's time to let go of the rubber toy look.

I love Toy Story, but its success kind of doomed 3D animation to never take any risks. I thought maybe it was just a limitation of the medium, and perhaps it was for a time... but after seeing Love Death + Robots and Arcane...

I realized they can make 3D animation look however the hell they want now.

The rubber people were just risk avoidance.

"That's what people are used to and so we're sticking with it."

But the real beauty of Nimona was the story. I won't spoil it but the plot is pretty much, "If you get to know a trans person, you probably won't hate them anymore."

Not knowing any trans people is one of the biggest factors in anti-trans bigotry. And so this movie uses allegory to let an audience get to know a trans person. And you get to experience someone slowly start to understand what it is to be trans from an outside perspective.

It's sad that will probably be lost on those folks above because all they will remember is the kiss. Seriously, it was such a harmless, mundane, blink-and-you-miss-it kiss. But I'm hoping that others will take the lesson of this movie to heart. That you should get to know people before you judge them.

Part of me does wish we could tell trans stories without allegory. That we could just have overt trans characters. But I think this is the best representation possible right now.

It's crazy that Supergirl was one of the bravest shows as far as modern trans representation. It wasn't an edgy HBO drama trying to push boundaries. It was a family-friendly superhero show and they were just like, "Here is a transgender woman with superpowers and it's fine." And I loved that it was part of the character but it wasn't all the character was. Though I think they just missed the manufactured "moral panic" window where that choice would have been extremely controversial causing boycotts of Warner Bros. and whatnot.

My only complaint about Nimona was a small penis joke. It went by very quickly and many may even miss it. But I was surprised to see it in this movie in particular. Especially since those jokes can have collateral damage toward trans folks. With all of the positive messages, wasting a joke on body shaming was a tad disappointing. I mean, it was a fairly lighthearted "Is it cold in here?" joke. I don't want to make it sound worse than it was. But it still registered on my Richter scale of things that bother me.

Anyway, I wholeheartedly give Nimona a 5 out of 5. It helped me understand my friends on a deeper level and it was warm and funny and entertaining. There was a scene at the end that was so beautiful and heart-wrenching and I was crying my eyes out. The animation and the symbolism and the acting were just so perfect.

It's a shame Disney tried to kill this movie. But I am so glad it was allowed to exist despite that.

ANNABELLE (2014)

💁‍♀️Strong Female Lead

A lackluster follow up to The Conjuring. The main character is a believably concerned mother going through the twists and turns of this tale but the father is a disingenuous flap of cardboard. The film is unremarkable, it has some good scares as well as some general creeps, but in many cases the doll was just funny. There was no reason for this story to be a stand alone film.

(Suicide warning if you choose to watch)

⭐⭐

A 70's couple are pregnant during the Manson family cult scare. The neighbors are murdered and the wife is stabbed, they flee with the baby (and so many dolls) to a new abode for fleeting safety. The young mother, alone, deals with the presence growing in strength while the father is inexplicably working (and no that isn't a sexual euphemism for this piece of toast boy). The whole thing comes to a boiling point when a priest informs them that the demon wants a soul, the catch being it must be offered. The mother is ready to sacrifice herself for her child but a friend steps in at the last second and gives her soul to the doll. The demon's hunger is sated but the box office isn't, "more Annabelle!" The hoards of sheep bay as they are spoon fed Chucky wet dreams. 

REWATCH REVIEW

[lesbiancolumbo]

As Indigenous woman filmmakers, we knew that our path through the industry would be narrow and that our film, Fancy Dance, would have a small window for success based on the abysmal record of representation for Indigenous folx in Hollywood. As such, we channeled our collective wills as granddaughters of Dust Bowl survivors, descendants of genocide and avowed followers of the indomitable Merata Mita to give this film the best shot possible. If there existed a “how to make a successful movie in Hollywood” checklist, we followed it to a tee. Step one: Create a compelling script (after her sister’s disappearance, a hustler kidnaps her niece from the child’s white grandparents and takes her to the state powwow in hopes of keeping what’s left of her family intact) – check. Step two: Find top-tier producing partners (Nina Yang Bongiovi, Tommy Oliver) – check. Step three: Cast amazing actors at the top of their field (soon-to-be Oscar nominee Lily Gladstone) – check. Step four: Premiere and screen at world-renowned festivals (Sundance, SXSW, BFI London) – check. Step five: Receive excellent reviews (THR called it “exceptional”) and festival prizes (Hamptons, L.A. Outfest, Mill Valley, NewFest, Sun Valley, Tacoma) – check. Step six: Get a distribution deal – …crickets.

snow lands on top | tom blyth

summary: a sutherland (not donald) and the younger version of president snow walk into a bar . . .

an: terrible summary ik but eh <3

when tom told you he had auditioned for the part of a young coriolanus snow, you got flashbacks to attending premieres of the hunger games movies. your grandfather was always taking you to the set of whatever film he was starring in and you loved it. sometimes you even got to yell ‘action’ or ‘cut’. your favorite memories were always on the hunger games set when your grandfather played president snow and now you received the news that your boyfriend auditioned for the younger version of said character.

“what do you think your grandfather would say? it is his character. what if he hates that i’m doing this? say something, you’re making me nervous!” tom said when he noticed how quiet you got.

“i’m just thinking . . you’re going to bleach your hair. i love your brown hair so much.” you ran your hands through his soft brown hair.

“we don’t know if i have to bleach it, i haven’t gotten the part.” tom reassured.

“yet. don’t think about my grandfather, think about how you’re going to be coriolanus snow.” you kissed him.

“but-”

“tom, if it bothers you that much, you can talk to him about it. i’m having lunch with him tomorrow and i’m sure he wouldn’t mind if you joined.”

and that’s how you ended up having lunch with your grandfather and boyfriend. it had been weeks since you last had lunch with your grandfather and you missed him dearly.

“it’s such a beautiful day. we should go on a walk after.” donald said as he picked up his glass of water to drink.

“it is. a walk sounds nice, but i think tom would like to tell you something first.” you nudged your boyfriend side.

“is that so? don’t tell me you kids got married and didn’t invite me. i always told you that i wanted to walk you down the aisle.” donald said sternly.

“no, sir, we did not get married, but i do intend to marry your granddaughter. she is the love of my life and i know how much it means to her that we have a proper wedding with you there. this is about . . . something else. um . . i recently had an audition for a role you’re familiar with. i’m sure you heard that another hunger games film is being made, but this one doesn’t involve the original cast-” donald cut off tom.

“you’re playing president snow.” he said.

“nothing is confirmed yet, but i’m hoping i get the part. but if you want me to back out, i understand.” you could hear the hurt in his voice. you reached for his hand under the table and squeezed it.

“why would you do that, tom?” donald asked.

“it’s a role made famous by you, sir, it’s your character. i don’t want to mess up such an iconic character like snow.“ he admitted.

“tom, i’ve seen you act. my granddaughter made me watch billy the kid twice. you could never mess up our character.” your grandfather smiled warmly.

“our character?” tom questioned. your grandfather nodded.

“i think i’m going to cry.” you spoke.

it was days after the ballad of songbirds and snakes premiered and the fans were loving it. positive reviews about the cast and film came out and you couldn’t be more prouder of your boyfriend and his bleached hair. it took some time to get used to, but he was soon back to his brown hair.

tom was currently doing an interview in your shared office on his laptop with josh horowitz from mtv. you were catching up on your favorite show when you heard josh ask tom a question that caught your attention.

“your girlfriend, she’s part of the sutherland family. her grandfather is the og president snow, I need to know if you were nervous playing snow because of who your girlfriend is related to.” josh chuckled when he saw that tom laughed.

“i was and then the three of us had lunch. that’s when i told him i had auditioned for the role of snow and he was so nice about it. by the end of it, he actually called snow ‘our character’ and it just warms my heart that he supported me taking on this role.” tom explained.

“and did donald sutherland have any involvement with your take on snow? any advice?” josh asked.

“the first day of filming, he texted me the usual ‘good luck, have a great day’ but there is a line i said in a scene with peter dinklage that’s in the end of the film. ‘snow lands on top’ that line was actually written by donald sutherland and he told me to say it because he knew that it fit the character of snow really well.” tom explained.

you smiled to yourself as you listened to tom. who knew the character of coriolanus snow would come back into your life after many years?

Seems An Awful Waste

Spooky season - Sylus short & headcanon reacting to Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street A/N: I LOVE THIS MOVIE. If you've never seen it you gotta watch it. This and Coraline are definitely in my top 5 movies I have to watch during spooky season. [Requested by: huntersmoon1]

Your goddaughter was in town for a week and you two decided that you needed to have a movie night. Spooky season is here and it's time to bust out all your favorite movies to welcome the month of October. First up? Sweeney Todd: Demon Barber of Fleet.

You and your goddaughter sat on the plush couch with fluffy blankets while the twins spread out on the floor with their blankets and pillows. "A demon barber?" Sylus questioned with furrowed brows as he read the description. "Yes you have to watch to understand" your goddaughter said as she tugged Sylus' arm to sit down between the two of you. She quickly snagged the remote from is hand and hit play.

"She really loves creepy movies" You whispered in Sylus' ear and placed a soft kiss on his cheek. As you pulled away he quickly grabbed your face and pulled you back for another kiss. "Ew gross can you two do that later before I throw up all over this popcorn" You reached behind Sylus and pushed her head "Watch it" You warned.

Sylus would end up picking the entire movie apart.

"I would've broke out of prison and went straight for the judge this guy took the scenic route"

He'd be confused as to why only Sweeney Todd and Ms. Lovett are the only ones who look heavily decrepit

"Why are they so pale and sunken? They have no excuse I live in darkness and I don't look like that" "Well you're also a billionaire Sylus now hush"

he would definitely tease your goddaughter as well when the hooded old beggar lady comes on screen he's leaning over and whispering "That's you"

"How is no one suspicious about where Mrs. Lovett is suddenly getting all this meat?"

Can not take the movie seriously to save his life

"that would leave behind so many bones thats not how you get rid of a body" You and your goddaughter stare at him "how exactly do you get rid of a body?" "Don't ask questions you don't want the answer to"

"This guy has it easy how can you get away with so much sloppy murder are these patrons families not noticing they're not coming home after going to the barber?"

Once Sweeney finally gets his revenge on Judge Sylus is done "This movie could've been 10 minutes if he would've just went to Judge's house to start"

He ends up giving it a 2 star review
