Nah, the academy is a joke.

🙂 yup yup. I was really upset too cus i really wanted to like it. Maybe i’ll watch it again an like it this has happen before.

Your opinion of course.

The thing that stung the most was…I wanted very badly to like it too.

i like it but these are good points. i was eager to see what it was but sadly didn’t get enough.

I think that’s the mark of taking bold risks–you’re not typically going to get middle-of-the-road responses from the audience. I appreciate that they run that risk and give us something interesting in the process, even if I don’t always fall in love with the movie itself.

The trailer got me amped up for what “It” was, and the whole mysteriousness of the red-door. I thought the beginning was bonkers, and again got me amped up for what’s to come. Only for the film to completely fall flat, and not even remotely explain anything. I don’t need everything thoroughly explained, but the movie ran out of gas and abruptly ended. Leaving the audience empty handed, and short changed.

how come? would love to know why, just out of interest.

Your assumption is correct. I had a blast with Cabin in the Woods.

You’ll probably disagree with me Creepshow, but I felt that that huge middle finger would’ve been a perfect ending for Cabin In The Woods. That was a movie that I didn’t find funny, scary, or entertaining. I thought the way Cabin In The Woods ended was basically a huge middle finger to me.

Yeah, they did. And it’s completely awesome indeed.

Both are excellent. Under the Skin had me thinking about it for over a week. There was a lot of weird and unanswered stuff going on in it. I have found myself liking those types of films lately. That’s probably why I really liked The Neon Demon, and why I respect the hell out of “mother!”.

It’s one thing for a movie to make you use your imagination. But this one ends up being a complete waste of your time. There should have been a giant middle finger on the screen after the movie went black.

Yeah. It Comes At Night pissed me off too. It’s another good example of a very promising movie that ends up going nowhere.

I thought 2 out of the 3 were decent. It Comes at Night kinda pissed me off.

truth there are some movies i truly love then there are some real shit ones. Buts it nice to have a production company that releases are lots of different features and takes the risks. They haven’t really done this since the early 90’s and 80’s.

The Lobster was fantastic too. IDK if A24 did that.

Good point.
