Watching a movie in VR sounds fucked up and wrong and horrible

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Re: What movies are you watching?
My production company made a VR film in Brooklyn last year.
It was fun i guess but its impossible to really enjoy it as a movie. Its still a very flawed experience.

El Royale or whatever it's called. Less than mediocre Tarantino clone. Not worth talking about.

I watched avengers age of ultron last night.
These films just don’t do it for me at all. Wish it were otherwise.

Half Nelson. It was maybe the third time I watched it, and it's still so good.

Re: What movies are you watching?
Finally got around to watching "I think we're alone now"
Man, what a let down.
"But the arrival of another survivor of this unnamed apocalypse shatters his reverie, and ours. “I Think We’re Alone Now” shifts from being an artful meditation on the nature of isolation to a more traditional study of contrasting characters before ultimately taking a hard turn and becoming a totally different piece of paranoid science fiction. Morano’s imagery remains vivid and often quite haunting; a long tracking shot of a corpse in a colorful comforter being dragged along the ground to its destination, thump-thump-thumping over dirt and rocks along the way, is a standout. But it’s in the service of a story that grows frustratingly conventional. By the end, it almost feels as if Morano—an Emmy winner for her work on “The Handmaid’s Tale” —made two different films, then tried to smush them together, to unsatisfying effect."
Yup

Re: What movies are you watching?
Yeah, I liked Ultron on first viewing but it's the only one of the films I've never been like, "Hey, let's watch that one again".

What's his name's voice really threw me off. There was too much conniving attitude for an AI.

Re: What movies are you watching?
It fit with my perception of the character after reading several of the comic storylines. I just didn't like how it was taken care of vs. those same storylines. They shouldn't have used Ultron as the big-bad, really.

Lord of the rings (the animated one)
This is kinda brilliant. Somehow a lot more faithful to the book but it seems like it was a template both in story and in a ton of shots and sequences for Jackson’s version.
It’s really charming but also kinda terrifying. The ringwraiths are scary here and they never really managed to make them scary in the live action.
Not bad for 50c in a goodwill. Well worth looking up
