Well, Dune just did that

I walked out of Frida because of all the sex scenes (thanks Harvey Weinstein!). I was 12, my mom took me to my first R rated movie because it was about my favorite artist.

Another vote for Triangle of Sadness. Don't watch the trailers, they reveal too much.

$100m budget and the marketing budget is probably of similar size so they want this movie to make as much money as poss

I watched this movie in every science class from middle school all the way through highschool.
Didn't even matter if it was biology or anatomy.

I'm looking for a specific type of film. Another Easy A, but it can be more serious. It could be arthouse too but nothing graphic like I Spit On Your Grave or Ms45. It doesn't have to be serious or arthouse, it can be a comedy that enjoys itself like Easy A (as long as it has a heart of good), it can't play itself off as a joke.

The main character must be a female

Seen Hunger Games, Erin Brokovick, Mad Mad Dirty Road. Hidden Figures was great. Moxie-? Kick Ass was fun, but I don't like Nicholas Cage or Jim Carrey. Captain Marvel- ehh Booksmart- Didn't like it. A League of their own- think this is a baseball film with Tom Hanks Joy- Didn't have substance Encanto- Songs were annoying imo I don't vibe with anthromorpic stuff. Animated yes, that no.

I’m not a big football person, but Remember the Titans is so damn good. He wrote some amazing dialogue.

Oppenheimer being a summer release feels weird to me
Feels like it should be a November movie and compete for awards

Reply to comment by [deleted] in For me, Princess Mononoke's rushed ending is the flaw that keeps it from being one of Myazaki's true m*****pieces. Thoughts? by [deleted]
I think the best resolution is to make your community better in whatever way you can. It’s what Miyazaki is all about.

If Wolf of Wall Street is one of your examples I would suggest Kick Ass
Otherwise there is Booksmart, Moxie, The Duff, Hunger Games, Mad Max Fury Road, Hidden Figures, Erin Brockovich, Jackie Brown, 9-5, A league of their own, Captain Marvel, Joy, Encanto, And if you don't mind an anthropomorphic cartoon Zootopia

Seen it. Didn't like the religious implications felt that was unnecessary. Fun film I guess though

Heathers is a black comedy/satire from the late 80s, not all of the humour is acceptable by today’s standards, it made Christian Slater famous and propelled Winona out of child star into more adult roles.
Idk that it’s exactly what you’re looking for though. Winona plays a popular upper middle class girl (not zero by any stretch) who throws off the shackles of popularity and takes up with the new mystery guy at school. They plot revenge on bullies but it gets out of hand.

Jumper and Push. Loved the idea of both movies, the story just wasn’t as good as you’d like.

This was probably the last tape I got that I played the hell out of before getting into DVDs. Loved it!
