Beauty and the Beast 2020: a Lifetime/Law & Order: SVU/Pornhub production. Had to watch this because the Mrs. had heard it was good. What a waste of 2 hours of my life. The movie is everything we're supposed to hate about male/female relationships these days. And the acting, if you can call it that, makes Lifetime movies look Oscar worthy.

"We watched Au hasard Balthazar last night and loved it and also Donald Richie. You hate to see that poor donkey die. He takes a beating and presses on, and your heart goes out to him. Also, Mouchette is terrific, which we watched last week. It’s a rare option, of course, to be able to ask Jean-Luc Godard to cut your trailer."

Clea DuVall recommended Pan's Labyrinth (2006) in Movies (curated)

2006 | Fantasy

"I hate fantasy movies. I did not want to see this film. I don’t remember why I ended up seeing it, but it immediately drew me in and left me breathless. Guillermo del Toro has the ability to create magical worlds that are emotionally grounded, and he never shies away from the darkness that exists in both fantasy and reality."

"There are Beatles songs I hate - 'Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da' - but so what? England is where my brain was. I was always too chicken to move here: why would I want to be in competition with all these guys. It was always exciting to see what the Beatles would do next. The good stuff just can't be topped."

The Love story among so much hate. (0 more)
What a remarkable story!
This story was inspiring, frustrating, frightening and at times heart warming. The fact that it was based on a true story made it even more remarkable knowing that someone lived that horror and still had the hope and faith that someday they would be allowed to live and love freely.

Fan Theories! Love them, hate them or a bit of both?

Are absolutely excellent and some of them should be put onto film.
Absolute garbage these people have too much time on their hands and should just take the film as it is.

I take each 1 on its own merits so yes and no depending on what I've read / heard.

#blackkklansman is an incredible & #fun tribute to the #art of #blaxsploitation film making with a #powerful & very serious #message to tell. Although i found this movie extremely entertaining i left the #cinema feeling extremely #sad & #emotionally shook by it too. What #spikelee has made here is a film that feels very much like a commercial mainstream #comedy film but one thats injected with so much depth & real world drama/issues that its hard not to watch it like its an #educational trip back in time. It really has your #emotions running all over the place especially with its very current & real portrayals of #racism/hate & how it corrupts the weak minded/uneducated while also showing how hate inevitably leads to inhuman & diabolical acts of violence. Infact id say the release of #blackkklansman couldn't of come at a more important time especially with all the hate marches going on in the world & even in my hometown recently. Filmed in such a cool way with an amazing #soundtrack i felt instantly transported back in time & fully immersed from the get go. Lee also uses so many darkly lit, raw & intimate close ups & old filters it makes the viewer feel like we are really there beside the characters really getting to know each & every one of them too. Much like last years #detroit (which i actually prefer) the time period is very well recreated & the overall message here is also just as important & unavoidable too. While not being a film i could recommend to everyone (I think some people may miss the point or fail to see under the films accessible surface) but those who do see it will come away feeling not only entertained but extreamly moved.

I absolutely loved this book, I read a lot and I have only ever cried once (The Green Mile) but Stephenie Meyer made me laugh, cry, get angry and annoyed.
The characters are relatable and complex and the plot is great and imagination that went into this is astounding.
I was reading a few comments about the book on here and it seems to me that most people seem not to like this book out of some preconceived opinion because they did not like the ending of Twilight.
I happened to love the ending of the Twilight saga, I think it fitted the story but even if I didn't you always start reading a new book with a fresh open mind.
If you start reading a book thinking i'm gonna hate it, then you will hate it.
I will be recommending this book :)

Facebook sucks!
I deleted mine 6 months ago and have never been happier. Still have Messenger so I can share and send photos of my dogs to family and friends. (we should have an Orb for pet photos)

I'd rather have actual conversations with actual people rather than hearing people bitch about other people, hating on random strangers, or how much you hate our current president.

I always got so hung up on or disappointed by how many "likes" my posts got and got so upset when I get enough comments or likes on them. Or when only 3 people said "Happy birthday" on my wall or when my mother liked 96 of my posts in a row.

Smashbomb is way better since everyone here is so friendly, happy and discussions of how much you hate anyone are nowhere to be found.

A love hate relationship with FIFA
I bought FIFA late this season after buying FIFA every season since day one ..I'm disappointed in that the coins I built up in FIFA 18 dosnt follow on into FIFA 19 .defense system gets worse every season can't seem to defend to save my life .transfers are utter rubbish especially if like me your starting mid season other players are just out to make coins & asking stupid prices for consumables it's going to take something special for me to change my love hate relationship with FIFA I like to play sports on Xbox. seasons are short as it is so when FIFA 20 arrives in September garented EA sports will forget FIFA 19
