Because it was already clearly a paranormal story. Did you not catch the fifty scenes that had ghosts in them.
Because a) Beauty is subjective and b) looks aren't everything.
Best fight in all the MCU was the stairway fight in Daredevil S2.
(Before an idiot responds, yes they are in the MCU, get over it).
Question. What isn't woke? Because I swear I can't remember the last movie that came out where someone didn't cry about some vague political agenda. Must've been ten years I reckon.
For guys that are allegedly so obssesed with political take overs 'dem liberal sure are slow at it huh?
The make-up route always looks silly. You can always tell it's just some guy in his thirties, forties that are make-uped to look old. It would have looked even more ridiculous with Tom Hanks, cause you really know exactly what he looks like.
Fifty years is a lot to change a man. I didn't find it immersion breaking at all.
Stick was actually more likeable in Season 2 for me. Not that I didn't like him in Season 1 but I feel his jaded personality went a little over the edge at times.
"The fact that people love the gratuitous gore in this movie says a lot about the times we are living in. And it's nothing good."
Just because people enjoy gore in a movie doesn't mean they're becoming sadists and that they'd enjoy seeing it happen to someone in real life. People have a desire to see their perchance for violence released in a fictional setting where they don't have to deal with the empathy of real people getting hurt. This desire has existed well before movies even existed. It isn't some something recent, and it's only a problem if you like to act like right wing grifters who talk a lot but say nothing.
Grab a psychiatry book or take some time off your high horse to actually get to know people, because your comprehension of human nature is literally below kindergarden.
You missed the racist overtones in this film? They'd have convicted him anyways.
"Robbie was miscast and it's overdue that we accept this fact"
I feel the need to correct you. This is your opinion, not a fact. I think Margot Robbie is wonderful as Quinn as do most people. So please accept that the hill that carries you alone does not stand for truth.
Thank you.
Question. What movie isn't woke? Because I can't remember the last time someone didn't complain about a movie being 'woke.'
Just because the core concept relies on something implausible that doesn't give a pass to the story surrounding it to do whatever the fuck goes. Your movie still has to operate on rules to feel like it's really happening. Hulk punching out buildings is okay because the rules state that anyone with his power can do that. But Black Widow was stated to be a normal human, so her being able to survive thirty foot fall and walk away unscathed let alone alive, is ridiculous.
I never got a vibe that she was weird from the beginning. She struck me as the ultra normal, shy quiet type when I first saw her.
It wasn't about winning or losing to Shultz. Maybe to a degree, but his impulse to kill Candie was more out of sheer moral frustration than ego. You can see it in his eyes when he shoots the Shariff at the brothel.
I use to agree with you, but after watching the film many times, I've since changed my mind. Django's development was all about understanding why machismo and gung-ho behavior will ultimately lead to death and failure. Django is a man of poor self image, who acts out of impulse. Ending the film at his first shoot-out in Candieland would have cut his development short, and betray the films themes by ending the film with that shoot-out. The last 45 minutes are critical to Django's development, because it shows that Django has dug deep into his self worth and is no longer ignorant to his talents. He fights with his wits and he wins.
He only proved himself capable of getting in good sneak attacks at the right time when the stakes are high. He never proved himself capable of a shoot-out with multiple opponents. In fact, the movie made it clear that he would prefer to talk his way out of one when he's being surrounded.
Stephen was the main antagonist of the story, not Candie. Candie was a "helper agent" of sorts.
The third act climax was a fight between Stephen and Django, not Stephen and Candie. If Stephen was being ordered by Candie to kill Django or to simply stop him from rescuing Broomdhilda, than narratively Candie would be the main antagonist, because a fight against Stephen is just a fight against Candie taking a different form. But Candie dies, and the and the protagonist's goal isn't achieved because we find out that Stephen is still keeping her held. If Stephen didn't manipulate Candie to cancel the transaction, than Candie would willingly sell Broomhilda back to Schultz. If Stephen wasn't there, Schultz would say, "I'll give you money" and there would be no story. The goal is completed. Easy peasy. Stephen was preventing that from happening. Once Candie was willing to give Broomhilda back as long as he is given money, he was no longer in opposition to Django's goal, which means he is not an antagonist by definition. Stephen was the main point of conflict, constantly getting in the way of Django struggle to reunite with Broomhilda.
Stephen is the antagonist.
Sorry you feel that way.
The ending is masterful. Period.
I actually do think T2 is better than T1 is some ways. Sarah Connor is a much more interesting character in T2 because in the first one, Sarah was too perfect. She had no moral flaws to speak of and she was always the victim of a cruel world. This made her a little boring. Just a typical damsel in distress.
Is there one corner of the internet that I can go, just one, without some retard bitching about dem SJWs? Please spare me.
I feel you explained perfectly why BB was better than Sopranos, but you got the names mixed up.
