darjeeling limited is the worst movie i ever saw

[tragabigzanda]

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. 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.

Wes Anderson has like two great movies and the rest is just good interior decoration.

When I was young I loved Royal Tenenbaums. I watched it again recently and thought it was OK, verging on bad.

i'd rather have my brain sucked through the back of my skull than rewatch Arrival. (a fine short story.) running up that hill to die there with anders

I recall loving Arrival quite a bit when I watched it in the movie theater, and it's been on my short list of movies I want to watch again, but for some reason I cannot pull the trigger on a rewatch. Maybe it sucked after all.

I just bought and read the short story. It was indeed superior to the movie.

i liked Arrival when it came out, but its not a movie i want to watch again.

Hopefully it wasn't bogged down by some time thing

[The Argonaut]

I read they changed the script for Arrival after Interstellar came out because it was too similar

I still think aliens not experiencing time linearly (and us as well, when learning their language), is a silly concept. But the short story felt like a sincere love letter to her dead daughter, which was not only emotionally moving, it also had some amusing growing up scenes. The short story was also without several of the scenes that helped make the movie poor. The adapting to an alien language was interesting in both, but that too was fleshed out in a better way in the written story.

Some really good ones.

Agreed.
