Finally got to see Roar. It’s people trying to make a movie with 90 untrained tigers, lions, panthers, and jaguars around. It’s the absolute dumbest crap I’ve ever seen. Everyone’s clothes are in tatters and they are getting lightly mauled throughout.

Is there something more to anora? I had not heard of it so I watched half the trailer last night and it seemed like modern romcom trash but everyone loves it??

The best picture winner is not modern romcom trash. It's pretty dark.

This is why I asked!

Anora is funny throughout, but yeah it's not a romcom. i had kind of the same perception after watching the trailer for the first time.

anora? more like snore-more-a.

It is difficult for me to describe how much I hated Smile 2.

I though Smile was a pretty good horror/suspense movie, but the sequel was just completely devoid of any story whatsoever. DO NOT WATCH

Switching gears, I'm not typically a fan of Oscar bait, but Conclave was a very good movie.

Thanks, I've been tempted but I just didn't see what could possibly need added.

Apparently it got a good rating on Rotten Tomatoes, so I may be in the minority. I just found it to be frustrating and unoriginal.

I don't think The Substance was all that good.

The idea was good. The ending was the worst ending I have seen for a movie that was to be taken seriously

That's a bummer. I thought the trailer looked goofy but the reviews were good.

As in you didn't snore much (if at all) during it because you were enthralled the whole time?

nah, loc. as in, it made me snore more. JFC, this was completely covered on my patreon like three weeks ago LMAO.

Caught Heretic on Max. Pretty enjoyable. Would recommend if you’re into horror/suspense.

I've been watching Hackman movies, Under Suspicion was the latest. I'd give it a 7/10.

Runaway Jury is so bad lol. I had no idea there were even hackier versions of Tony Scott out there making movies
