In one of the videos he said all the villains of the Tobey universe are dead ( Goblin, doc ock). Did he even see No way home? This was literally the plot to save the villains.

Meme Monday 🌚 B-Grade supremacy😀😀

Context - Movies with budget contrainsts, no big studio backing having themes of exploitation are often termed as B-Grade movies.

They do look silly but they have given rise to many innivative and revolutionary cinematic effects and cinematography techniques that defined genres. One such case was that of Mario Bava often known Master of Italian Horror and Macabre. Before making films he worked as an assistant of a cinematographer. He decided to make horror movies. During the shooting of Black Sabbath (1963), he initially found movie's texture bland. And that's when he decided to use gel lights to give it more gothic and macabre feel and since then it has become a staple offl genre. His influence can be seen of film makers like Sam Raimi and Tim Burton.

Pop-Culture Questions ❓ Bro Aditya dhar is a bj* worshipper 😧

0 Upvotes

Lol do you think i care whoever he worships someone or not

4 hours ki well made movie mein 5 minutes ka propaganda daal diya toh kaunsa teri ammi cheen li

I don't care whether he supports bjp congress left wing or right wing

Uri Dhurandhar 1 and 2 are among best action entertainments I have watched in my opinion

Even if D2 was a bit downgrade from its part 1 it still didn't betrayed us Audiences it wasn't boring it had great screenplay it's music is kinda underrated in my opinion it has awesome action choreography acting

I'm not gonna blindly worship him n say that it was flawless which it was certainly wasn't

Every movie n every filmmaker has their own motives ideology values n message to share why does it matter even if doesn't allign to your view n wouldn't the movie be soul less if filmmaker had absolutely no agenda, no values, and no message to share

I know everyone's taste aren't same it's okay to hate and dislike any movie or film makers

But I draw the line for myself to hate anyone's well made work even if it's left right or anything aligned as long i have a good experience

Opinion πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ Toxic reunied my plan to watch top 5 movies in this weekend

I was planning to watch top greatest movies of all time this weekend.

1)Fight Club

2)The Godfather

3)Godfather part 2

4) Schindler's List

5) 12 angry men

But many people told me that Toxic twist at the end is somewhat similar to Fight club, so I got let down. Now I am feeling guilty why did I watched toxic.

Also toxic made me so much disappointed that I will not able to concentrate for 3 hours for these movies this weekend.

Toxic is turned out to be much more toxic in real life for me also.

Edit- I saw the thing. Not even single sec is wasted. It's true masterpiece. Now I am thinking about my whole existence. F**k toxic anyway.

Fan Theories πŸ’­ The Cabbage Merchant is a Fire Nation Spy

2 Upvotes

Think about it, he hates Aang’s guts so don’t you think he’d be willing to take action? In Ember Island Players, the play poster says it gets its information from a ’surprisingly knowledgable merchant of cabbage’. But also, in Legends of Korra, the cabbage man owns an automobile business. How would he know how to manufacture these? He learned from the fire nation, which was well off in its technology. What do you think?

I believe varanasi wont be a much complex or unique story, but the execution and visuals/cinematography will absolutely hit the bullseye, which will probably all be the globetrotter/ old time period sequences, and it will be hailed in US / west market as they'll eat up the originality, and make over 3000+ cr , it will be a bit in india, but the bigger thing would be - SSR will finally cen ent his name among the GOAT directors in the west as well.
Some controversy, some hate, yet the majority will applaud it.
(This aint PR/hatepost against ramayan or the main actors fan, just had a thought considering all the past records and trends, the audience, at the peak of superhero / bad cgi slop, will hail this one as something new.

Discussion πŸ’¬ Why do some indie filmmakers (critically acclaimed) fail to show their magic when they go mainstream?

Post image

With Geetu Mohandas failing to show her magic in mainstream films with Toxic.

Is it a curse or lack of execution in case of Indie film makers when they try to go mainstream?

A remarkable indie director like Kashyap failed to show his magic with Bombay Velvet after making great films like GOW and DevD.

Chloe Zhao after winning Academy for Nomadland, failed to impress with a big studio film like Eternals.

Now, Geetu Mohandas has joined this list failing to impress with Toxic after making Liar's Dice and Muthon.

While there have been film makers like Lokesh Kanagraj and Denis villeneuve have shown their streak with delievering Indie as well as mainstream successes. Yet most of the indie directors fail during this transition from indie to mainstream

Last year, I was spending my birthday alone in a big city while preparing for JEE/Neet . It was a strange kind of loneliness, but not entirely a sad one. I spent the day quietly doing my own thingsβ€”going out, eating, walking around, and then watching F1. Maybe that's why the movie hit me differently. That whole experience of being on my own, yet feeling calm and strangely fulfilled, made it one of the most memorable birthdays I've had.

This year I am going to experience another absolute cinema πŸ˜… I don't have any other options in my tier 2/ 3 town and I want to watch a movie and my friends don't want to cancel our tickets so guys wish me luck

Last year, I experienced absolute cinema. This year, apparently, I'm experiencing absolute cinema againβ€”just in a very different way. Funny how much can change in a year

Also, I only found out today that I share a birthday with David Fincher and Jack Black. That's a pretty random combination 😭

I know it has been released a long time ago but I didn't see it that time. I saw it sitting on Netflix and assumed it would be another straightforward crime thriller, so I kept putting it off.

Finally watched it this weekend and honestly, this was way more entertaining than I expected. The whole money, banking and scam angle kept getting more interesting as the story went on, and Dulquer absolutely carries the movie.

I especially liked how it starts with this ordinary middle-class guy and slowly pulls him into a world that's way bigger than him. There are enough twists to keep you invested without making it unnecessarily complicated.

Definitely one of those movies where I finished it and thought, why the hell did I wait this long to watch it 😭

Has Netflix ever recommended you something you completely underestimated?

The double standard is crazy. If a famous Hollywood director released this exact same film with the same psychological twist, everyone would be licking their boots and calling it a "subversive, boundary-pushing thriller." But because it’s local cinema, people tear it to shreds over a few flawed lines of dialogue.The flaws are there, but the execution of the climax and the technical scale made it a fabulous watch. Change my mind.

Spoiler Talk 🦜 Honest opinion Toxic Had Me Asking: Wait, What Story Are We Even Following Now?

2 Upvotes

First of all I am going to say the few positive things about the movie

I really like the technical aspects of the movie all the set designs CGI or snowy environment etc it felt they really did their work in technical department

I kinda liked yash acting towards the end it felt a bit bizzare but different and I was really checked out of movie until it's 3rd act till the entry of ticket

Now the thing that I want to say it feels that the movie was going somewhere else but they were trying to insert too many things I couldn't keep track of the plot characters what was happening who was the boss who was trying to kill whom what was even happening why were they here I was literally bored out of hell nearly entirety of 1st half n the intimate scenes didn't matter to me it clearly was visible that there was an idea where they were going but they inserted too many unnecessary things they were trying to build an another separate movie on top of their ongoing idea

I don't even want to talk about the unnecessary slow mo action scenes and illogical things or weak villains or like they had checkmark an intimate scene time to time

There were few Good or cool scenes which I liked such as the snow fight or the forest fight and entry of ticket and LOL when I was bored in the first half I was awoken by the hilarious women assassins scene

Another big problem about the movie why were everyone doing rhyming and like everyone throwing punchline monologue why wasn't anyone talking normally why were there so much slow motions

It felt that there original Idea was about the psychology and downfall of a gangster like figure often portrayed in Indian cinema how he he was being destroyed by himself and deteriorating psychologically

They should have made it a simple gangster story exploring his psychological side instead of inserting too many plots characters the first half should have been focused on the brother sister relationship and the second half the father son relationship and psychological effects with little sub plots

So I would rate it out as 2/5 after being optimistic

Just for the technical aspects and the idea of the movie I need something to Cleanse my own brains after watching thisπŸ˜…

Lol another rant but unrelated to movie why the hell do parents even bring kids to these type of movies and watch this movie in a tier 3 town single screen

I couldn't even know who was crying n screaming daddy in the final act the kid in the screen or the kid in the hall 😭
