Can anyone point me to where i can get good movies (from older movies like: the Last Don, The Hobbit, Spartacus to more recent ones) on a external drive. I'm willing to pay if need be.

I just finished watching this movie.

It's an excellent sci-fi movie. Incredibly well directed, good story and great visuals.

In the age of $200m Disney+ shows, how Gareth Edwards managed to keep the budget for this movie below $100m should be carefully studied.

The guy is a genius.

I don't know why or how this movie flopped.

In another timeline The Creator would've been one of the most successful movies of the year.

It's an underrated masterpiece.

8/10

Netflix seems assured of Oscar nods with this and Maestro.

This awards season surely looks to be the most interesting in years. Best actress and Best Supporting Actress category will be fvvking fierce.

The Killer.....6.5/10

This is probably the worst David Fincher movie I've ever watched. It's not a bad movie but I expected better from Fincher. It was nothing unlike Fincher's previous work and felt more or less like a generic hitman movie. It was pretty slow, boring, and somewhat flat most times...It was only when we got to Tilda Swinton's appearance that my interest was truly piqued and that's very much towards the end.

There were times I wondered what this was all about. It had little character, unlike Fincher's signature mastery. Only Fincher work to date I felt indifferent towards. Fassbender and Tilda did a good job but the plot and the story build up let them down. Film felt like it was meandering without a serious thought to the point to it all.

I also didn't quite find the Cinematography very kind as there were some weird angles and the occasional deliberate way they framed some scenes where characters' faces were cut out from the compositionβ€” mainly just showing their nose down to their lower bodyβ€” it was mostly jarring and distracting.

The first Fincher movie I'd watched where I fell asleep a few times. The few times I felt "this is Fincher" was in the dialogue. Aside from that, this movie's quality doesn't come close to his filmography (at least the ones I've watched).


Not a bad movie. Just not David Fincher's strongest work judging by his pedigree. I guess it didn't help that I already watched 4 David Fincher films earlier this year before now. So the bar was set pretty fvvking high. Especially since he's presently my favourite director.
not long enough

Hmmmm, the takes on this movie are so interesting, somewhat "inorganic" if i should term it properly.

On X (formerly known as Twitter), David Fincher's colleagues are praising the movie to the high heavens and some going far as calling it, "his magnum opus" and yet i keep seeing takes like yours from none industry heads saying it was average at best.

My best inclination is that those industry heads are probably lying or over rating the flick just to do right by one of thier own.

I don't think i have seen a rating above average on the thread here, and i most likely think that's the true reflection of it, though i am yet to see it.

David Fincher is an absolute legend but he was probably due a miss, so fairs but it continues to retritiate the notion i have had for a while that art as it pertains to movies, series and even music is a "dying breed" and I'm sorry, these 3 art forms may never hit the heights of yester years. I was comparing movies and songs from 00-10 and 16' to present some months back, i was so shocked at the obvious deep in quality. Back then you could see like 10 potential oscar best picture property in like the first half of the year, compared to now, because let's be serious, and i say this with love because i really like , but in a "proper movie year", Barbie shouldn't be anywhere near a "Oscar best shout". A "good" movie on a "good day" but totally blown out of proportion by the insane marketing gimmick mainly because of outside forces wanting to make bank with the hysteria.

Worse still, It is now a norm not to expect "magic" from film makers you reverred, because "The killers of the Flower Moon", hype died in like a week, and i have genuinely not heard anything about it in weeks, the hype of the build up was greater than the hype of the release itself and with "The Killer" going astray like this according to you lot, then we might have a serious problem!, because this 2 were supposed to be among the "absolute best" this year. Martin Scorsese and David Fincher having project out in the same year would have been on paper, an avid cinephile wet dream, but it doesn't seem like it. It is only going to get worse, because these actual old heads we trust to deliver on good movies, because they have had a rich history of cinema and the world around to draw inspiration from, are actually about to phase out and the number of projects they release will drastically reduced, so new heads filmmakers who are in thier late 20's and thirties are entering the scene now, Emma Seligman who made "Bottoms" is only 28! meaning her inspiration is from a "pre and post covid woke world, where you have to please everyone even if it goes against your personal believes" meaning more idealistic woke BS movies on the horizon. that looks like she's on top of the female filmmakers food chain now, only just turned 40 this year lool!


I hold movies to a certain standard and I can't genuinely name 10 really good movies from this year that i would say were really good or measured up to that standard and we are in freaking November!!. I don't buy the talk that the strike affected the industry cuz lets be sincere and serious, only DUNE 2 was the only potential really serious movie on paper that the strike affected, if we are looking at things holistically. Movies used to be my perfect gateway but these days i could go days without seeing a flick and i wouldn't flinch, because each time i find the time to see one, it seems like a chore already, playing russian roulette to see the one that will suck less, even the indie "A24" esque ones that you would trust to deliver don dey get K leg. The really good movies i saw this year were from way way back and that says alot.

I can vouch confidently for music, movies and series and thier undeniably decaying quality but i can't say same for other media forms tho since they aren't my forte because it seems my anime guys here are still eating good on a steady.


Well, I coped "The Killer" and Oppenheimer, before i left for a trip but unfortunately for me, i took only the work laptop 😩 and left the entertainment PC at home, thinking i would need to be settled in the comfort of my home to enjoy these 2 on the best platform but e be like say with reviews like this, na to watch this "The Killer" now and get it over with, because" it is the hope that kills" πŸ˜’

She understands the assignment.

She's a successful playwright but this is her first major screenwriting gig, I hope she knocks it out of the park.

Now I need James to hire a director with a keen eye for visuals and creative prowess.

Someone like Gareth Edwards can bring the story to live, complete with the stunning visuals and great production design with a lower budget as well.

A young Uncle Ben is in this movie.

I couldn't believe my eyes at first.

What in the world is SONY cooking?

All this energy spent building a spiderverse and they not even thinking of making a live action Miles Morales movie.

Instead they giving us movies that no one asked for.

Hmm, I see. He seems very passionate about female led projects.

I don't know why almost everyone on film twitter is just raving about Greta Gerwig directing this film. Cos I'm yet to see her experience in large set or mad stunning visuals cos this film will definitely be tasking visual-wise and production design.

Anyone who's qualified for the job should be given as long as they're also passionate about the project.
This being Ana's first big screenwriting project is a bit of a concern. But Gunn going all out and saying she more than impressed....it's wait and see.

So far, Gunn has a promising and interesting bunch of creatives and crewmen in his upcoming universe.

The confirmed and rumoured directors is promising. Also, his interesting choice of cast is good. Mixing young people, especially the ones having their breakout phase and young actors presently popular and in the zeitgeist.

I know it's for Superman Legacy. She's a member of the Authority, so we're eventually going to see her in The Authority movie nonetheless.

So her role in Superman Legacy is to answer "present sir," in preparation for The Authority.
