@Variety This is why you should never believe anti-union corporate rhetoric. They do the equivalent of unions all the time.

@ZoeRoseBryant Just rewatched it for our podcast episode. I think the first hour is such a masterclass in filmmaking. Second hour has some great moments too. Third hour still loses me. It’s just the most predictable part of the movie. But the ending is cool.

@jenwhitedop @Variety No, not the same. Just that corporations fight for their interests so they shouldn’t be so negative about employees doing the same.

@ATRightMovies 2001 is a literary deconstruction of the relationship between humanity and technology. It defines every moment of the film. Interstellar isn’t on that level thematically. Its narrative is more pure plot and melodrama. Visually, Interstellar has nice 3-5 second moments but

@TheCinesthetic Yeah, the point of Tyler is to show the allure of such thinking in order to illuminate the hypocrisy of it. Tyler’s just as dehumanizing as the consumerism he’s fighting. But so many people miss the actual point.

@Variety “On both sides” come on Variety. AMPTP is the problem. As Adam Driver said, you have smaller studios who have no issue compensating their collaborators. But the major ones are being awful about everything. It’s that simple.

@ZoeRoseBryant Celine Song said she was thinking about how timelines decrease left, increase right. That’s why she had Nora and Hae Sung walk left: it represented them walking into the past. Then Nora back to the right, into her present and future

@TylerCWhitmore The saddest part is that it’s because people are completely misreading Saltburn as “middle class is evil”. Which is wrong. It’s not Parasite. It’s American Psycho/The Social Network/Ingrid Goes West.

@THEnotoriousJ0D I spent a full hour last night trying to find somewhere where he talked in detail about his daily routine. Couldn’t find it. It’s driving me crazy. Does he eat breakfast lunch and dinner 3x a day? Does he work out 3x a day? Does he shower 3x a day? Brush his teeth?

@FilmUpdates That’s a fundamental misunderstanding of why the movie was successful. It’s not because Mattel’s IPs are that powerful. It’s because they let an artist with a vision craft a meaningful work.

@barchiesorigin I’ve only seen clips of this show on Twitter and it looks like the writers room is literally just throwing darts at a board of random concepts then stringing them together into a semi coherent episode. It’s amazing and atrocious.

@Vara_Dark Being scared of it is completely different than not liking it. Two very didn’t emotions. Being scared of it doesn’t mean she didn’t like it or didn’t respect it or anything negative. I mean, it could mean those things. But doesn’t have to.

@jerstonfilm SPOILERS The club scenes are a metaphoric way of showing adult Sophie’s journey with her father’s memory and trying to understand him. It’s a really nice way of capturing the distance and eventual catharsis.

@mrbrianrowe People keep misreading it as class commentary like Parasite and attacking the movie/EF because they think she’s vilifying the middle class. It’s pretty annoying. The movie is about a kind of person, not the middle class. Just like American Psycho/Social Network/Ingrid Goes West
