Mads is at his best in his native language, his Danish productions are all varied and excellent (Men & Chicken and Another Round show his strengths as an actor). His Hollywood output pays his bills, but all they have for him is roles as Nazis or murderers. Lionsgate just had to John Wickify it, this is everything people don't want in The Crow. Chalamet and Zendaya look like they photosynthesize, probably just hamster droppings from them. As for everyone else what were their diets like? He can do the voice too, as we saw in Lincoln. If not P.T.A then Charlie Kaufman could pull off a satirical take on the manosphere, but make it more nuanced unlike 'Don't Worry Darling'. When TS3 came out I was stunned by how good it was. TS4 had a lot to compete with, expectations were very high so the mixed to negative reviews by audiences shouldn't come as a surprise. I've found it's a better film on numerous rewatches but it's become TS2 in terms of 'that one next to the greater film'. The whole 'Barbie is woke' discourse has gotten old, whilst it's probably 'woke' by the book the reason it made money is all in the marketing. Women turned up to screenings as a blonde pink-clad Barbie not as an archetypical blue-haired Tumblrina. The film proved women are still feminine and like dressing up in pink, the gender nonconformists didn't do too well in 2023, conservatives ought to be celebrating that perhaps? I agree, the book signing scene was especially absurd. It's bordering on parody much like Halloween Kills with its 'evil dies tonight' silliness. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wy-bkt-MQQs Barbie made bank, it's nothing to do with "strong women intimidating evil white men" or whatever concocted waffle is the excuse this time. Superheroes are still profitable, it's just this recent slate has not much of an audience. The OP straight out of the 1940's trying to "name the Jew" despite the original 'The Exorcist' director William Friedkin (RIP) being Jewish so what is the deal here? Jason Patric, Frank Welker, Fred Willard, Fred Gwynne, George Peppard, Lon Chaney, Roger Deakins and Roger Moore don't have a single birthday thread either... I thought the toxic masculinity line in 'The Batman' was ridiculous but this somehow tops it. I saw a playthrough and the majority of gameplay consists of sitting in a room, it could be another 12 Angry Men for all we know. If by old these people mean "no longer looks like a child" then yes I guess he's "old". I noticed that around the time of 'Inception' DiCaprio aged into a man, he's 49 next month but I don't think he looks much older than your average 40-year-old. I'll say it, he looks great. I suppose the formula became a bit stale. I'm not sure comedies in the style of Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Knocked Up, This is the End etc would be popular with todays crowd. MovieChat isn't moderation heavy, there's a large enough dose of racism and sexism on Facebook/Twitter/YouTube/Instagram etc and these are heavily moderated compared to MC. It's either what we have now or another Reddit clone which you can get banned for even politely disagreeing. I can't say I've seen those, the only TV series I liked with McBride was Eastbound and Down. McBride is to horror what Seth Rogen is to nostalgic children's cartoons. They can't do raunchy comedies anymore so they do...this. No more Exorcist films ever, please just leave it as a sort of tribute to William Friedkin. I'm sure everyone would be on board with that. You're asking this when her competition is K-Pop, Cardi B and whatever. It's all just fodder and will be out the window in a few years and replaced with more of the same. Kate Bush and Stevie Nicks can breathe a sigh of relief. Marty's right for the third time. 20 years from now when cinema is permanently replaced by an unsaid amount of trilogies of Gobo Fraggle live action moral crusader films from the extended Fraggle Rock universe, a sculpture will be erected in Martin Scorsese's name.
