IMDB’s aren’t better. I had noticed at least one movie that had pretty bad ratings despite being pretty good - the only movie adaptation of a Carl Hiaasen novel, which does the novel full justice imho. I guess the haters were disappointed Demi Moore fans?

And it’s usually pretty predictable what sort of stuff gets the really high ratings; anything between 8.0 and 9.9 has to be filtered for fandom.

Read the book. Seriously, Lem’s depictions of all things alien are orders of magnitude better than any movie - even modern CGI - can be. (I watched the Tarkovsky movie after reading the book and wasn’t impressed either)

This is usually where le pirate is more reliable. Thanks for the tip.

If a movie makes you forget about the bad shit in the world for a couple hours, it’s done its job. Let’s stop asking much more than that from movies.

Never underestimate entertainment value. All art is also always part entertainment. Never forget that.

Dr. Pulaski on STTNG. “PMS Bitchface” some called her.

But that’s what I liked about her!

A wish even the genie cannot fulfil.

thrash not trash

oops. That’s different. No offense taken though; considering the comparison to punk I feel entitled to having made that mistake.

I feel there’s a joke about US politics in this somewhere.

Funny, this made me think of kidnapping & ransom demand.

Yeah I can always complain about something specific. I think this one was mentioned as “must see cult classic”, so I watched it a bit but just couldn’t go through. Something about large factory halls filled with people?

what will be a classic movie

Damn you must be old by now.

I liked that sci-fi movie where they poked a rocket at the moon. After that it all went downhill.

Seriously, your meme is too broad. Always happy to complain about something specific though.

Take a listen to this…

Love the music, the band name, the cover.

If this is considered trashmetal/punk I might need to revise my prejudice.

I associate ‘-metal’ with certain mannerisms, often most expressed in the vocals, that I simply hate. Maybe a particular type of growling, but it goes further than that.

There’s one or two albums I like that would probably be ‘-metal’ if they had a different singer.

So, I do not menstruate and don’t look like it either - can some affected people elaborate please? Does this happen more with male doctors or female?

That said, I also had situations where my reason for coming in was very clear but the healthcare person (not always an actual doctor) just had to go through that list of questions even if they obviously had nothing to do with the issue, but I did not perceive it to be a gendered issue.

I feel the car owner so hard… 😭

😚👌

Sounds like what these idiots did during Jan6.

All in all it’s just another brick in the wall.

It might take a while, but we will get you all.

c/trashmetal
crossover supergroup including Tony Foresta from Iron Reagan/Municipal Waste and Paul from Cannibal Corpse.

I didn’t know that. How is that music anything other than Punk? OK, the drummer is a little too good maybe, but that’s not exclusionary.

I guess it doesn’t matter either way but I very rarely like anything that is labeled ‘-metal’.

PS: judging from the upvotes there must be one more person who knows.

Nice. A random find for me, either here on lemmyverse or Bagel Radio.
