I was babysitting my nieces and put this on solely because of how absurd the title was. It was actually pretty cute and entertaining, though.

Just finished watching the 2019 Batman vs. The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie. It's actually good. The animation during the fights is so cool. The art style and character designs took some time to get used to though, and the continuity of either franchise is a bit confusing because there's mention of one of Batman's sons dying before but it's not clear who, while the Turtles are a mix of the 2003 and 2012 ones, while Shredder is the classic 80s one but he's actually serious and evil and doesn't have any mutant henchmen other than Dr. Dexter Stinkman as a fly, no krang working with him or anything, but he has the mutagen. The story was good though and both characters worked so well together I started believing they do exist in the same franchise for a second lol. There was lots of blood and gore with occasional swearing and neither Batman nor the TMNT hesitated in killing the henchmen. They truly did it the ninja way, which is killing because ninjas are assassins. Yes Batman killed people in this. Crazy. There was a post credits scene showing the Shredder turning into a samurai/ninja Joker and now I need to know if there was a sequel.
>>511235Watches the trailer to see if I'll like it. The premise kinda reminds me of WoW so I kinda like that. But the rendering that's super smooth is so disturbing. They look like AI generated CGI lmao. The male characters voices are also very amateur sounding, like some random faggots from YouTube, but I'll give it a shot for the story and fashion/aesthetic. I'm not fond of the song snippets because I dislike modern kpop but I'll try to sit through it.

This movie is unironically great and I'm genuinely upset that it's ratings are so low. I sincerely hope that everyone involved in making it realizes that critics are pompous assholes and that their film nails goofy humor without stumbling into dorky millenial territory. Did I mention the asshole bf who rejected Ginormica/Susan doesn't come back in the end and she learns to enjoy an independant life through self-acceptance? Also Insectosaurus is adorable and I wish I still had the McDonalds toy of her that I had as a child.

Been rewatching some Christopher Guest movies lately - Best in Show and Waiting for Guffman. So good and so stupid. Rec if you're needing something funny and cozy.

I really admire what The Ugly Stepsister was saying, but it hit too close to home. I couldn't finish watching it, it upset me too much. Not the gore or the gross stuff, but just the actual situation and emotions. Obviously it would ruin the story and message if it went this way, but I just wanted Elvira to murder that fucking prince.

>>512885>men value women solely for their beauty and looks are the most expedient tool for female upward mobility, it drives increasingly damaging competitive behavior between women, while moids don't give a fuck >women attack each other because they want retarded moids attentionThat's women's fault and I'm so tired of women constantly painting themselves as
victims here (while putting other women under the bus because "muh patriarchy made them do it"). I hate the brand of feminism that strips women of all agency ("socialization made me do it") thus never holding them accountable for anything they do. There was never any solidarity between women and as long as women care about dick they are doomed.

The 100 Best Movies of the 21st Century list from New York Times wrapped up recently, and it of course reads like any other list from NYT
https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2025/movies/best-movies-21st-century.html>>511235I liked it, some of the ideas seemed like they were underdeveloped for the sake of time, a lot of the humor felt overly millennial, and the lead trio often acted like three copies of the exact same character imo
Also wish they changed hairstyles up some but that's more of a nitpick

I recently watched My Mom Jayne, Mariska Hargitay's documentary on her mom, and it was beautiful. I cried so many times. It made me so sad and angry for Jayne Mansfield because she just wanted to be an actor but moids only cared about her body and took advantage of her. It also made me sad that Mariska never got to know her mom.

>>512878Same, as an ugly girl who found some safety in physical changes, it hurt so much. I felt awful for every woman besides the older ones (the
toxic teacher, Elvira's horrible mother). Loved how it showed ways in which women ourselves uphold patriarchal values, and how being pretty isn't success when it opens you up to abuse and exploitation from gross men. Also loved the focus on sisterhood and solidarity, I was pissed off that The Substance didn't have that and felt so ageist and misogynistic in comparison. Plus on an aesthetic level this film was stunning, it had a very soft but creepy 70s feel, very Borowczyk.

I watched Phantom of the Opera (2004) and I really enjoyed it. The art, music, and story were all great. I can really see why this is considered a classic.
I actually liked the story more for its themes of tragedy rather than romance. I would really like to check out some more gothic films like this one. Any recs?

>>511235I watched it and found it a lot of fun. The music was catchy, the outfits were cool, and I loved the protagonists. I hope they make a sequel in which Zoey and Mira get more screentime, though.
I rewarched picrel yesterday for like the tenth time. It’s a very fun romp, in my opinion, you just have to check your brain in at the door and not be squeamish. I mean, the characters wear “breathing masks” outside, since they’re on Mars and the air is
toxic, and the masks are literally just… glasses. Not even scifi goggles. They’re just glasses, it’s really funny.
I usually watch it dubbed, but this time I gave it a try in English and it made me realize that the reason Desolation Williams has few lines, and other characters talk for him most of the movie, is because Ice Cube is a terrible actor, kek. It’s fun how he seems to move around mostly by bouncing on his feet.
