🦇 favorite horror movie, 🔮 coolest concept for a horror film, and 👿 FIGHT IN THE 7/11 PARKING LOT GO (I read horror novels and watch horror game let's plays, why is this list so film centric, feel free to incorporate things that aren't movies if you prefer lmao)
🦇 favorite horror movie
Hard tie between Nope and The Thing 1982. The thing is a classic. its got paranoia its got body horror its got insanely good gore effects it's got Jed the dog its got rj maccready it's got that fucking thang!!! i love it so much
but at the same time. Cowboy cosmic horror that explores the exploitation of people and animals by the entertainment industry and how traumatic events are turned into a spectacle for people to gawk at. With the most unique take ive seen on the classic alien first contact in a long time. And the insane amount of symbolism and double meaning in almost every shot. And the most accurate sibling relationship ive ever seen in any media ever. And Angel Torres being the funniest character concept ive seen in a horror movie. And that SOUNDTRACK holy SHIT
🔮 coolest concept for a horror film
I mean. I'd say In the Tall Grass has insanely cool concepts. An ancient eldritch rock(?) warps and corrupts and infects the field around it, bending and breaking space time to trap people in time loops so they're going through the same path of being trapped and lost and suffering for every moment forward and every moment after is really cool to me. but ONLY in concept alone the movie is so fucking mid that it's painful such a cool story was wasted on a film that was just ok.
For a movie that turned out good though? I'd say either As Above So Below or Prey. AASB has the idea of a descent through hell ala Dante's Inferno using the Paris Catacombs is really fucking cool. And Prey has takes the Predator and puts it in 1719 in the Northern Great Plains, following the perspective of a Comanche girl trying to survive/outwit the Predator as well as go through her own arc about becoming a hunter not only fucks in concept but the movie also goes hard.
👿 horror movie character you would fight in the 7/11 parking lot?
herbert west no question. you dont understand I need to beat that little bastard up with my own bare hands. watching the zombies do it for two movies was not enough. plus id know id win against his twig ass and it'd be really funny if he got his ass beat by a woman. imagine the damage id do to his ego. please it'd be hilarious
#to clarify i love herbert west as a character i just have an intense urge to beat the shit out of him#if you watched the movie you understand#the only thing about in the tall grass that lived up to the concept was patrick wilsons performance#put his all into it and for what. bland ass movie#i could say a LOT about that movie honestly but i will spare you all that rant#i dont think it shouldve been adapted into a movie at ALL but you know#dani speaks#ask#asks

I watched Starship Troopers tonight.
#personal#dumb#my art#immediately after finishing i was pumped to watch some analysis vids on it#cuz i heard a lot of the drama about the original author being a pro military fascist and the director going “fuck that” and making a satir#scrolling through youtube search results was not promising. lots of male film buffs i would Not trust even on a first glance.#“The Critical Drinker” (pfp of a bearded man drinking alcohol) lol.#and then I saw cinemawins did a video on it and was like oh nice i haven't seen his stuff in a while but he's a pretty leftist creator#scrolled through the comments#second panel face#this sucks i'm outta here.#just leagues and leagues and leagues of anime pfps and right leaning people dogpiling on him for “not understanding what fascism is”#idk it's pretty alien and weird to me watching this movie and going “wow yeah that was pretty obvious huh” like literally the from opening#to the teacher preaching militance and only giving voting rights to “those who serve their nation first and earn it”#and then seeing droves of people online going#WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? It's not anti-fascist and even if it was it's#the director's fault for desecrating heinlein's incredible sci-fi epic vision. ermm media literacy is dead.

So you know of other fairytale-theme school medias?
oh yeah, there's a few! the one I was thinking of specifically was Ever After High; I was mostly into the dolls, but I also really liked the webseries and the Shannon Hale novels! Apple was my definitely my favorite. 🍎
#art#twisted wonderland#ever after high#the descendants movies are the other one i know of#though i wasn't really into that one#which is ironic given (gestures to entire blog) but there you go#(i probably would have been all over descendants if it had hit me earlier in life)#(that said i am absolutely going to watch the upcoming one just because it has brandy and paolo montalban as cinderella and charming)#(you do not understand how much i love the 1997 rodgers and hammerstein cinderella)

image i made for a powerpoint night with friends
#this kid really goes through it this entire movie#the boy and the heron#studio ghibli#my presentation is on how the boy and the heron teaches you how to move on and also the lost cause of trying to make a legacy#the never ending man (the documentary on how hayao miyazaki spent his 2013 'retirement') gives you such a deeper understanding#of the mindset he was in going into creating the boy and the heron#and whenever i watch that documentary or this movie it makes me cry#but also mahito is probably one of the funniest protagonists to ever grace a ghibli film#keep on keeping on

“the class commentary in saltburn was shit” WHAT CLASS COMMENTARY???? NOT EVERY MOVIE WITH RICH PEOPLE HAS TO OR SHOULD HAVE CLASS COMMENTARY. EMERALD FENNELL KNOWS VERY WELL THAT SHE IS NOT THE RIGHT DIRECTOR FOR A MOVIE ABOUT CLASS COMMENTARY WHICH IS WHY SHE DID NOT WRITE A MOVIE ABOUT CLASS COMMENTARY.
#saltburn posting#saltburn#begging everyone who is complaining about the ‘message’ of saltburn to watch ANY interview with emerald#when you see her attention to detail and hear the way she talks about these characters#you will understand that this is a movie about obsession#and the cattons being rich heightens this for sure and pushes oliver into an uncomfortable position#in the exact same way that it pushes farleigh into an uncomfortable position#they will grant you help as long as you don’t ask for it#desires are messy and ugly so it’s better to just not have them#these ideas are absolutely a result of the catton’s wealth and status#but as far as the plot goes#their wealth is just a narrative tool to push these ideas about beauty and obsession#watch the cufflinks scene again and really think about it#think about venetia and what she wanted and farleigh and what he wanted#and all of the desires that are left unspoken at saltburn#and the desire to BE DESIRED#think about all of this and try to tell me that this is a movie about material gain

Prometheus stole fire from the gods and gave it to man. For this he was chained to a rock and tortured for eternity. Oppenheimer (2023) dir. Christopher Nolan
#oppenheimer#filmedit#cillian murphy#oppenheimeredit#henricavyll#usersilk#useranimusvox#jokerous#dailyflicks#barbenheimer#nikolatexla#this masterpiece was way beyond me. way beyond anyone else#think of a movie that everything about it is perfect#the soundtrack. the actors. the script. the atmosphere.#i don't remember if i ever watched a scene before where my heartbeat was that fast#there were more than 100 people inside and no one made the slightest sound and it was like i could hear every heartbeat#this was my first nolan movie. i couldn't go tenet (which was amazing too) but i'm glad i didn't bc this was the best one#mind you the only thing i understood at first sight was a scene about black holes in which i was genuinely interested before#you know the movie becomes way more fun when you actually understand it - not as a whole but also the details

Disney, releasing Wish: "so it's all about legacy--the new generation surpassing the old, overcoming the evils perpetuated by them, relinquishing singular power... and there's an old man in a tower, uh... animal sidekick, i guess..., ah... magic...?
Miyazaki, just out of frame, sledgehammer raised:
#the boy and the heron#not tagging wish 'cause i'm being a little acidic#this isn't to be negative in the slightest--I really respect both films--but it's interesting to see how visceral boy+H gets with its story#what evils have to be rejected and what they represent--and how characters and the world suffer from those evils--as well as how the whole#'rejecting' part goes. in terms of animation powerhouses discussing their legacies - disney and miyazaki both - I find it interesting that#one makes a pretty safe and nostalgic movie about imagination and dreams; the other is a long trudge through the land of the dead.#b+h is a hard watch - and a look at the legacy of a man questioning his whole purpose in the world - after his cultural touchstones#have long passed by. Mahito needs to understand his grief to keep living--but if he drowns in it he'll just continue the cannibalistic and#violent world of his granduncle. how the hell do you make art when the trauma of your entire life has colored it forever? How can anyone?#maybe after a while... it's time to detonate that damn tower and keep living.#this is to say#if you have enough money to make whatever you want#Make It Fucking Count

one thing wwdits s6 3 alternate endings taught me is that NONE OF YALL watch movies. 'the usual suspects' and 'rosemarys baby' are incredible staples in cinema history. guise you are killing me
#the amount of ''i dont get the references but at least weve got nandermo sitcom'' posts is breaking my heart#like. im happy for us we got canon nandermo !!!! but im begging yall to watch these movies to understand the references#theyre better when you understand TRUST ME#kurlys rants#wwdits#what we do in the shadows#wwdits s6#the twist in 'usual suspects' hits hard even when you know its coming cuz the narrative draws you in with this long flashback#'rosemarys baby' is such an amazing criticism of how people treat women and mothers + how religion/ppd/cults can harm vulnerable people

Whatever…more stob spoiler thoughts…speculating 🫣 (read tags)
I know it’s basically fanon that Rob can easily check stone’s heart rate, blood pressure, etc. through Stone’s watch or with a swipe of Rob’s control gloves….
So do you guys think if the same idea was implemented in canon it could work the other way around? Since Stone still has his watch on after crawling out of the water do you think he could have been alerted of Ivo��s pulse? When it slowed down after Gerald revealed his true plan to Ivo, when it quickened during their fight, or maybe when it fell back to normal when he spoke to stone over the livestream?
And do you think Stone could’ve been notified when it had halted to an immediate stop?
#sonic movie 3 spoilers#sonic movie spoilers#this also begs the question if Ivo’s livestream was saved on a database since he used a badnik#and we all know stone has unlimited access to Rob’s tech#would stone be able to watch it again? do you think whenever he misses the doctor he’d replay it?#also I’m ignoring the fact there’s no cell service in space by understanding that stones watch could have been made by Rob himself#and we saw how Rob was able to livestream to earth and connect his footage to a specific screen using his own tech#currently reading a fic where Rob scans stone and this treacherous thought came to mind#so 🤷🤷🤷#god I need to stop rambling#you get the idea#tragic stob warriors unite#stobotnik#agent stone#jimbotnik#agent stone x robotnik#robotnik x stone
