Paykan attacks the whaler to save Lo’ak. And in the chaos that ensues, the Na’vi find the perfect opportunity to destroy the humans.

Then, they just disappear from camera. The whole entire final act of the Sully family and Nemeteya’s GF, vs Stephen Lang was isolated. The sea Navi just disappeared and didn’t help out at all during the Eclipse scene.

Anyone else notice this?

I'm going with pretty much any role Alan Rickman ever did. For example, who else could play a terrorist leader turned corporate thief? The Sheriff of Nottingham? Snapes?

The answer is no one. In the first example, even Jeremy Irons barely moved the needle playing a similar role in Die Hard 3, and he is Jeremy bleepin' Irons who did Scar.

I very much enjoyed watching The Sixth Sense and I don't know what else to say without giving away the plot twist (which probably a lot of people already know) but I wish I could experience that feeling again. I was just amazed. I couldn't believe I hadn't seen the plot twist.

Other movies I wish I could watch again for the first time are Psycho, Memento, Ex-Machina, Black Swan, Scream...and all the Lord of the Ring and the original Star Wars trilogy.

Not every video game movie can say they had a great adaptation, but i gotta say this one did.

between the direction, the choreography, and the acting, it was 100% solid.

in fact, my gold star would be to Shang Tsung. He literally WAS shang tsung from the video game. totally believable.

What do you all think?

Just caught Wild at Heart (1990) dir by David Lynch with Nic Cage, Laura Dern and Willem Dafoe at a local theater on a whim. Holy shit? One of the most fun theater experiences I've had! So campy. So quotable. The theater clapped at the end and it was well deserved.

Surely the good r/movies people of Reddit can attest to its greatness?

I have a severe love for these types of movies and shows, probably from watching Twilight zone and the like as a youngster. Certain episodes of Black Mirror give me this vibe. The endings of Playtest, US Callister and Black Museum really put me in this place.

I’ve just finished watching Devs, and some of the elements from that show almost hit that nerve, especially seeing and hearing the projected history of characters from ancient history.

Ethereal movies also go into this for me. Such as Enter the Void. Ad Astra is there too, for the loneliness.

I especially love slow, transcendent movies with crazy scores.

Just came off the ballad of buster s; great movie, and westerns have always been my thing with high plains drifter and the good the bad the ugly probably in my top 20 movies of all time!

I would like something a little more unique and more rare; maybe something older? But I’m not picky! Much love thanks!

PS: Bonus if the movie has a banger soundtrack

At least for me it's hard to tell how the director (Scorsese) wants to make the viewer feel. They sound like OK jokes of a typical American talk show host to me, but this interpretation doesn't quite fit the desperate loser character of Rupert Pupkin.

I really like the movie, though. Feels so modern for its time.

The discussion about recasts has been important for the MCU and I see that there's discussions about this for Star Wars, mainly concerning Luke and Leia.

I see that there's lots of people who are opposed to recasting of famous characters. They don't want anyone else but Mark Hamill to play Luke and they don't want someone else to play Iron Man or Captain America. The main argument against recasting is that some actors are iconic in their roles, for example is Downey jr iconic as Iron Man and Hamill as Luke Skywalker.

But what about Batman? There has been 7 actors who has played Batman on screen. Excluding Kilmer and Clooney and maybe Affleck, pretty much every Batman actor has been iconic as Batman. We got some of the best comic book movies ever with Christian Bale as Batman and one could argue that he's just as iconic as Batman as Downey jr is with Iron Man, yet we were just fine with them recasting Batman. It's the same with James Bond, we are okay with different actors portraying 007 even though some of them became iconic in their roles.

So why are fans opposed to recasting Iron Man, Captain America, Luke Skywalker etc, but fine with Batman, James Bond and Superman being recasted all the time?

In my opinion, the actors are not bigger than the characters, especially not when talking about iconic comic book characters. Doesnt't other actors deserve a shot at these famous characters? One argument I see a lot of is that no one could play Iron man as good as Downey jr, but what if they are wrong? What if there's a actor who could do it just as good as him?

Any thoughts on this?
