Dune is an November release I believe but agreed!

There aren't enough Horror Western movies. Only other one I can think of is Ravenous (1999). Bone Tomahawk could be adapted to a neat DnD module.

The only questionable thing to me is the American cheese. I cant ever see a chef like that using american cheese on anything but a cheeseburger.

"throw down your weapons!"
"Pig, this is what I'll throw!" BRRRT
One of the beat lines in a gunfight I have ever heard.

Going into films without watching the trailer is such a good move, as long as you’re willing to be subjected to seeing someone being split in half.

Reply to comment by Wazula23 in Finally watched Melancholia. I did not like anyone in it. by IndieBenji
yeah the point is right there in the title.
Maybe I have a bias in knowing the feeling too well but the movie is move about the energy/mood than the characters themselves

I think it was there for humor and as one of the first hints that something is a bit off about the workers and the restaurant.

It's such a inspiring movie too! Whenever I see it, I instantly get motivated to tackle on projects that seem "impossible." A great movie all around!

You'd think I'm making this up, but agree a third time! Loved the late 70's / early 80's vibe! The gooey monster made me think of The Thing and similar movies. And also, to have RoboCop himself starring. Awesome.

Yeah, it's crazy how many people missed the theme/point of the movie. Slowik didn't just enjoy killing people for no reason. He was obsessed with the idea of turning all the people who'd made his life hell into his magnum opus. He had no reason to kill Erin. She was the one person there who made him genuinely happy, and who had done nothing to deserve to be there.
That dramatic beat at the end of the movie wasn't there to hint at another twist, it was to convey the transformation that Erin had gone through.

Reply to Garden State. And Zach in general. by BatmanMK1989
When I watched this recently, a quote stood out to me where the doctor asks him if he is alright and he said "yeah!". Then the doctor followed up with: "Yeah, you're alright. You're alive." It was just so simple and a heartwarming piece of dialogue that easily can get lost in a movie but meant a lot.

As a depressed person, the overall unlikability of everyone works for me. It puts you in the mind of someone who wants to cut people out of her life and sleep all day. It makes weddings feel artificial and married life feel like a prison. It makes an inbound death planet feel like an escape.
It's not about sympathy. It's about putting you in the headspace of severe depression. If you don't want that experience then that's completely reasonable, and I recommend you skip this movie, because that's the intention and it's very effective at it.

It’s constantly telling you exactly what the themes are, what the characters are feeling and how you should feel/ the lessons you should be taking away from it etc.
Understandable for a kids film, but still not something I think is good.

He made a few intensely violent movies, he's not breaking some ridiculous new ground
