That film breaks me every time. I basically don’t stop sobbing from Wilson scene until the end. Such great performances and shows you what good actors can do with less over the top dialogue.

I couldn’t care less about some cultural hegemony. I just find it funny that your own populace prefers entertainment made thousands of miles away. Seems more of a you problem.

I mean, the people that give in to making a “small vocal group” happy is their own fault. Why should they care? Just cause people bitch doesn’t mean they should cater to them? It makes the CEO of Sundance look incredibly weak and pathetic. Just like the small group that overtook the documentaries appraisal. These are not complicated times. They’re making it complicated themselves by paying attention.

It's not competition if it's an unfair playing field.
And we're fixing that.
I mean, look how desperate your are to maintain a cultural hegemony. You're so afraid of the outside world you're paranoid of people telling their own stories for themselves. Look how angry you are at a country you're never going to live in wanting to make its own art.
Imagine feeling threatened by that- wait. You don't have to imagine.

Yeah that's the only gripe I have with the movie but I guess it's understandable. It doesn't seem very long because the story is so engaging but it's 2 hour and 28 minutes, at a certain point you just gotta trim the fat from the script. And a scene with his rescuers probably wouldn't have accomplished anything that the scene onboard the private jet talking with his old friend/colleague didn't.

It was great becuase it was Pinocchio but really guillermo del toros Pinocchio. This is a story unlike what I expected to see. Really good job from everyone involved.

I’m not starting anything. I had a factual point to prove and I did. I can’t help it if you people can’t read. Now bye.

Sebastian is always vouching for Pinocchio though, he defends him countless times throughout the movie. Just off the top of my head Sebastian gets very mad at Geppetto for calling Pinocchio a burden.

James Bond leaves the next movie title at the end. Ever since Marvel did one on Ironman though, every movie wants one now.

I’m not personally offended by this. It’s just stupid and inaccurate. I was annoyed by the lazy joke more than anything.
I love all stereotypes. Not KFC though. That’s too spicy for my white ass. See jokes!

Scream and Blair Witch. They may not have won awards but damned if they didn't influence horror movies for decades.

Every time I fire up a new Pixar movie, I think to myself, is this the one where they finally split someone in half?

I dont remember Fern gully having sentient whale-like creatures befriending an outcast blue alien, an immaculate conception kid having connection with the planet, bioluminescent forest and creatures, cool human tech... I doubt you even watched Ferngully.

Mhm ofc it was that’s why you became completely unhinged and started swearing at everyone and getting into long exchanges. Great sense of humour you got there pal 🤡
