The White Lotus

Omo to finish first episode na war. The actress and two friends scenes are just so cringe and awkward.

E dey tire me.

Bro, e be like na the same thing dem dey act fa...One mystery or 2, and they take the whole season to chew on it, same memo with S1 and S2, but those worked because they had likable characters, this S3 characters are so bottom barrel.

But the production value is so high quality, too cleaaannn... that's the only reason i am sticking with it 👌🏿

Nickel Boys......7/10

Being one of the few watches I quickly snagged before the Academy Award proper.... I'd say this is not as earlier hyped by award season as one of the Best Films of the year.

It's a good movie but its incredibly niche and I somewhat feel a major reason this was included as Best Picture and in awards chat is mainly because of the racism topic and the political undertones.

It's a brutal tale into the systemic racism happening in an American reformatory school in Southern USA Jim Crow era.
I didn't really like it's excessive use of POV cinematography. Sure, it's a narrative choice prolly to drive the suspense but it's overuse left a sour taste in my mouth.

It's what I'd say the perfect awards bait.

Was it good? Yes. Is it Best Picture quality? I'd say no. Would easily have replaced it with NOSFERATU.

Omooo i heard people complaining about the POV style cinematography and I just refused to take the bait....was it that distracting?

As soon as I saw one article whether it's from THR or Variety I can't remember tipping him to win the Best Director award even ahead of Edward Berger and stating their reasons I knew it was over and this year's Oscars would probably go on as one of the most hated.

Apparently, Sean Baker has many Hollywood friends and true to form, Hollywood voters mostly vote who they like FIRST.

Despite really enjoying the film, I no see wetin the guy do to warrant a Best Picture nod or even director at that. 🤷🏽‍♂️
We were too focused on EMILIA PEREZ we didn't know ANORA took momentum.

Well, just like I predicted, I already said it that Demi Moore was NOT winning any award for The Substance work. I don first tell Una say Academy no send horror. Due to the universal acclaim, just like I predicted it got nominations but no MAJOR awards.

CBM was a brutal fight for concessions and the massive fandom with the genre to even win any major awards from that group, but you see this horror genre— na here dem go die put.

Sean Baker na industry plant o. Emilia Pèrez was truly set for a clean sweep bro before Karla Sofía Gascón hit self destruct, Anora was the next obvious choice and NEON went on an insane campaign for it!, and those decisions were last minute, and the wins doesn't look organic, absolutely no way Mikey Madison performance was better than Demi Moore's, it doesn't even make sense but it is what it is.

We have established here, that certain genre will never be considered for Oscars on a serious level, except the movie was overwhelmingly good. Heath Ledger winning as "The Joker" was even surprising tbf, and i can't shake this uncanny feeling that they awarded him cuz emotional guilt with him passing away.

Bro, actually happy NEON are getting this win tho, i like what the studio are doing lately with Indie and arthouse flicks, it's like what A24 was doing when they first started out, and what made us love them, their distribution is top notch, unlike A24 lately.

[quote author=ProverbBaelish post=134381506][/quote]Anora was so mid, that if you even rate it highly, i might start judging you as a cinephile 😭😭.

But Sean Baker is one of those film makers that serves up mid, and for some uncanny reasons, critics just lap it up, he pulled the same ruse with "The Florida Project" (2017).

He can't fool me...i know better 😔

I watched it first time some years ago...
And I rewatched it early this year...

Those episodes actually had well hidden cuts, but they are not easy to spot...
It would have been impossible to make an entire 1 hour episode without any cuts...

I still remember my first reaction to Elliot kissing Darlene forgetting she's his sister

Or almost the entire season 2 when he was in prison but his mind was messed up to cope...

There's this uncut scene towards the end of season 2 when Darlene was in a restaurant with her bf...and some Dark Army assassins came on a bike...scenes was pretty epic...

The E-corp raid episode was also insane...from the planning to the riot, everything was done to look uncut...

The other episode in S4 when Darlene said "we don't have to talk" and no one spoke throughout the episode. People were even texting
Till the dude at the end said "I think it's time we talked"

Angela dying at the beginning of season 4 was shocking even on a rewatch...the way it was done...brutal...

Some other flaws I noticed e.g in season 4, Darlene and her cop gf trusting White Rose's man who simply told them the Dark Army was no longer interested in them...
I mean, he had no reason to lie since he could have killed them if he wanted... but their reaction to it still made no sense...they shouldn't even have considered getting on that plane...

And after the hack, they made it seem like these billionaires became broke as if they'd really put all their funds in one account...
No matter how secure and offshore those accounts were, these billionaires wouldn't trust a single source...
They likely had many assets too...both fixed and floating assets...
Lands, shares, etc...

I get the main target was crippling White Rose's influence within the Deus Group but it still felt odd

"Strange Darling" (2024)

"Do you have any idea the risks a woman like me takes whenever she decides to have a little fun?"

Told in a non-linear sequence of six chapters, Strange Darling delivers one of the best uses of non-linear storytelling I've seen in modern cinema. Each chapter is carefully crafted to lure the audience into a state of delirious expectation, as the film swings between moments of pure tension and brutal violence.

The story begins with a faux historical account of a serial killer on the loose, setting the tone for what's to come. The central plot—seemingly a consensual one-night stand—takes a sharp turn when a simple question is posed: "Are you a serial killer?" Even in the heat of the moment, with the promise of intimacy, one can't be too careful with a killer on the loose 😩.

As someone with a particular interest in serial killer films, I was pleasantly surprised by how well-executed this one is. Although some search engines have mislabeled it as horror, this is a Tarantino-esque thriller through and through, with a mind-blowing twist. It’s a breath of fresh air and easily one of the best films I’ve seen this year.

8/10

Baddestguyp:
I don't even agree with the list but it does have a number of very solid shows...
The arrangements would differ to me...

And your argument about Breaking Bad...I think it's valid.

I've always said that Breaking Bad had a very boring first 2 seasons...
That's why I prefer Better Call Saul to it.

At the end of the day, the entire list is subjective but I just find it insulting to say shows like Power or Money Heist or Blacklist are among the best shows of all time...

Blacklist for instance would make my list of one of the worst shows I've ever watched

I think the term subjective clears everything up. Power was really good and it has spawned into a universe, and it still be culturally referenced till this day. I see the Ghost, Tasha and Angela love triage meme now and then on X, so it isn't surprising people are saying it's one of their best shows of all time, and it doesn't negate it just because you didn't vibe with it. Money Heist too, huge pop culture impact, we had peeps dressing as the robbers at cosplays and costume parties, even down here, so not surprising.

You are thinking a show has to be PHD level, super intricate in methodology, plot and otherwise for it to be people's best show ever, that's where you are wrong. Highly critically acclaimed ≠ Best shows ever, in most people's view point.

Illusioneffect:
What would you consider your personal top 10 best shows of all times?
Mine is actually slightly similar to the list
1. Game of Thrones/HoTD
2. Friends
3. Stranger Things
4. Avatar: the Last Airbender
5. Succession
6. Better Call Saul
7. Breaking Bad
8. Bridgerton
9. The Boys
10. ?....

TBH i am not really into making these sort of lists, i have seen too many good shows/and still seeing, to narrow it down to a "Top 10" list. Like there isn't a defined criteria to make these list.

For E.G aren't you the one complaining about how "The Boys" S4 is going?, what is the criteria for it been on your list? Do you even know if they are gonna end it well?

And Bridgerton? Common on man, i don't even understand the context you used in putting it there, so you already see why making these kind lists is somehow.

Ideally, imo, Your "Top 10 list of your best shows" should be shows you can see over and over again, without getting tired. I haven't been able to sit through the entire "GOT" for a rewatch since my first run, except occasionally seeing random episodes to clear up some issh. I can wholeheartedly tell you, I can't sit through "The Boys" again from S1, when there are other new media to see every day. I think it has been only Dark (2017 - 2020) i have rewatched because it was a short binge with just 3 seasons.Only sitcoms these criteria in hindsight because, i can't honestly count how many times have seen "Scrubs", TAAHM", and "Everybody hates Chris
"

I think people confused most critically acclaimed show of all time with best shows of all time, and the latter is highly subjective and very dynamic. It's cool you are able to come up with such list tho but it will be very difficult for me.

Saw this list of some of the best shows of all time on Reddit yesterday.

Someone brought it to Twitter and some Nigerians were calling Breaking Bad overrated..

Meanwhile they were asking why no Blacklist, Power, Teen Wolf, Vampire Diaries, Spartacus, Money Heist etc on the list

I can see now that we really deserve what Hollywood is dishing out lmao

How some people really believe shows like Power or Blacklist are among the best shows of all time is shocking

Btw I'm not fully sure how this list was compiled since it doesn't seem to be by just ratings

No lies detected!!

Nowadays we have numerous prestige TV to watch. If there are no movies TV shows that can match movies toe to toe in production value is plentiful this period. So not much people are compelled to the theatrical experience.

Imagine top tier projects like THE BOYS, HOUSE OF THE DRAGON, RINGS OF POWER, ARCANE, PENGUIN, DUNE: SISTERHOOD all coming out later this year. Following each other back to back.

Also, TV screen technology going through serious improvement and evolution like 4K TVs and better IPS LED display etc and great sound system, you're good to go man...all in your house! 😃

Na small remain make I use the Mandalorian theme song do background music for project wey person outrightly tell me before saying "No Copyrighted" songs. 😂😂😂😭😭

lol you just described my delima when working on a motion graphics or animation project, i have a plathora of scores in my library to use, but all copyrighted, and should a client share such project as a Youtube shorts for E.G, Youtube has this weird rule of giving royalties to the owner of the sound you used, especially when said sound is from a major label. So i am left scrubbing pixalbay for the next closest sound to use that is royalty free. I still can't use Cornfield Chase on an official project for years now 😩🥲

One day, you people will sha gather and tell me why you guys rate Tom Holkenborg.

On the AI thing, I think you're overestimating the emotional complexities of the average human a bit. All the average media consumer needs is to be entertained.
The sunset that actually care about depth are in the minority. That's why a lot of folks fall for and react to clickbait titles that could be cleared by just reading a paragraph or two of the actual article. Cos most people don't really care about media past the surface level.

Will AI ever truly produce human storytelling? I think we stand on the same side here. I also don't believe it ever will.

Will it mimic it well enough to entertain the average person? I definitely believe it can. Sooner, rather than later

Andor .....9/10

A slowburn that starts to pay off in the 3rd and 4th episode.
It's easily the best series in the Star Wars franchise and one of the best overall. It even rivals Rogue One.

Mehn, that Madam Maarva Carissa Andor funeral scene was top notch top of the line Cinematic masterpiece. Emotions was at the zenith, suspense and tension was at its peak, that episode was well crafted and executed. Her speech was quite moving, even me that was watching felt the powerful message, almost dropped a tear 😂, and nearly jumped into the screen to join fellow comrades in the battle against oppression and fight for freedom. Everything came at a climax.

Then there's the On-program prison scene, where Cassian masterminded a jail break. One of the best episodes in sci-fi history.

It's a top tier political drama.... I never thought the SW franchise could conjure something like this.

The visuals was perfect. The suspense and drama was pristine, the score was great, the acting was great, writing and directing was premium quality.
Never expected it to be this good but Lucas Film cooked here. 😎

This scene broke me 🥹🥹. That was the best episode by the way. Definitely one of the best shows i saw last year and my personal fave in the "Stars wars Disney plus" circa era.

See the movie ", Star Wars: Rogue one" (2016). This is series is the Prequel.

This is the 3rd highest grossing movie of all time and as it has become available digitally, it is a must see.
The movie features heavy CGI and a long run time, so it is an enconder nightmare. Below are some links with "reasonable sizes" that with quality and size file in mind to cater for all categories so that you can enjoy the stunning beauty of this movie immersive cinematography!

The 4K UHD file is still too messy and the size over bloated for now, will update as soon as it becomes available if need be.

Enjoy and Shalom fellow Sailors ☠️😁
