Movie Rating

I was expecting so much from this film, but wow, it was eye-roll inducing. I love strange, off-kilter indies, and social satires, but this did not work for me at all. It was trying too hard.
Between seeing Tessa Thompson in this, and Annihilation earlier this year, I've come to the conclusion that Thompson can't really act (sorry, just my opinion).

Also, how much did they pay Armie Hammer? Or did they not? Did he do it for free to build more indie cred so he can get an Oscar eventually?The only reason I'm rating it a 3 is because I think that Lakeith Stanfield can act, and he was by far, the best out of the lot of them.

I'm so glad I didn't pay for the ticket myself.

Franjpan (10 KP) rated Super Bunny Man in Video Games

Nov 26, 2018

An indie game about a guy in a rabbit costume. There are 40 exiting levels to roll, jump, float or fall though, including a story mode, co-op and multiplayer (up to 4). Find hidden carrots, race time attack ghosts, or simply just try to get to the end potal. While it is still not finished there are lots of great levels to get started on, although it is sure to cause frustration when you keep dying at the same point. We've all been in that situation when we get near to the end in the first try then it takes half an hour to get back there. But I think that this just makes it better when you finally finish a level. Overall a great game to play.

The best free thing ever

Look, I'm just going to say it like it is. This is free to download and it's absolutely incredible.

This is dark brooding Hip Hop, imagine world folk music instruments crafted in a blend of shadows that's work so perfectly. Then there is Shahmen himself. There are poetic lyrics delivered in his laid back bass of his voice. His voice is as bassy as the bass. Then to top it off he writes songs. Songs that are amazing.

It's hard to think this guy isn't huge but he isn't. He could be if everyone reads this and downloads it. ITS FREE. You won't regret it. Even though it's hip hop, indie and metal fans love this too. Awesome.

David Cross recommended Bicycle Thieves (1948) in Movies (curated)

"Just watched this again the other night. About every five years or so I throw it on and enjoy it. Perhaps as some sort of antidote or palate cleanser for all the bombastic, inane crap that comprises 99% of the movies out there. For every Battleship and What To Expect When You’re Expecting, or by-the-numbers, manufactured twee, Indie quirkfest you end up seeing, you should watch this movie to equalize your sense of what a “good movie” really is. As simple a story as one can conceive (an honest man in post-war Rome who needs his bicycle for work, has it stolen and he sets out to get it back before the end of the day) that’s easily as compelling and truthful as any movie out there."

"Rock Lobster' was the first song I heard from it, I think from John Peel. I didn't listen to the record for a long time because the club I went to in Sheffield, an alternative indie club called The Limit, always played either 'Rock Lobster' or 'Planet Claire' every single night for three years that I went there. You would hear that, 'Bela Lugosi's Dead' by Bauhaus, 'Shack Up' by A Certain Ratio, 'She Sells Sanctuary' by The Cult, 'This Is The Day' by The The... nowadays the guy could have been a Spotify playlist, he hardly ever deviated and God knows why he turned up and put them on by hand, but he did. That was the only place to go if you were considered a bit of a weirdo."
