Did Apple use Se7en in advertising?
The movie's biggest problem: the ending is too easy to predict.
Kids have Anxiety, Envy, Embarrassment, and Ennui BEFORE puberty!
The movie should set twisters in cities
The title "Avatar" is meaningless now: no one transforms anymore
Why does the VFX look more real in the old version?
Can anyone spoil the plot?
Best Olympics ever! The only place in the world where we can see a man punch a woman!
My twist prediction: Hartnett is the one who tipped the police the killer would be in the concert.
Does anyone have the open letter written by Michael Bay to protest WGA?

Most people have Apple+ they just don't know it. iPhone has 15% market share, every owner of iPhone has Apple+. I have an iPhone but I never use the Apple+ app once.
I agree almost all of Hitchcock's movies are terribly acted, they don't act like normal people but flamboyant like stage actors. I love Rebecca, but the acting made the movie look like a comedy. But acting is the most insignificant part of movies, the best examples are Keanu Reeves and Arnold, who can't act, but that doesn't prevent their movies from becoming classics: Speed, Bill and Ted, The Matrix, Predator, Terminator, True Lies…Nicolas Cage is a great actor, but that doesn't make his garbage movies become watchable.
"I’m having a breakdown." That sounds like a mental problem, the stories I read all said she bowed out for injury on her leg.
Did you know Fight Club is a massive box office bomb? It even caused the boss of Fox to get fired, and the boss made Titanic for Fox! I always think Fincher made Panic Room for one reason only: money. He was in a bad spot at the time, he made two bombs in a row: The Game and Fight Club. The funny thing is that most people think Panic Room was an average thriller, unlike his previous masterpieces The Game, and Fight Club. The masterpieces bombed, and the average thriller made money.
So they can easily do it again with a precedent for them to copy, which Pixar has done many times: The story for Toy Story 3 is a copy of Toy Story 2, and the design of Wall-E is a copy of Short Circuit.
When I was a kid in elementary school, half of Aliens terrified me to the extent I almost couldn't breathe (I said "half" because the movie started to become horror after they landed on the planet).
But I still remember the ending of The Terminator did the same thing for me: When the Terminator rose from the fire and chased them to the factory. The cat and mouse in the factory is very terrifying for me.
You have described the story of The Last of Us.
The Hunchback of Notre Dame had a depiction of lust.
You can say that to every movie from James Cameron:
Terminator 1: A good man has to save the world and protect a girl he falls in love with.
Aliens: A good woman has to protect a girl she falls in love with.
The Abyss: A good man has to save the world and protect a girl he falls in love with.
Terminator 2: A good robot has to save the world and protect a boy he falls in love with.
True Lies: A good man had to save the world and protect his lover.
Titanic: Romeo and Julia on a sinking ship.
Avatar: Dances with Wolves on an alien planet.
They will be treated as heroes. Every TV channel will report how Zeus saved the city by risking his own life. The thugs will understand his actions.
