He pinched it between his index finger and thumb but not like the way you would pinch and smoke a joint, with the rest of your fingers facing forward. He held it with the rest of his fingers facing the other way, towards his mouth, like as if you were applying lipstick. Hope that makes sense haha

Nothing special per se, just a unique characteristic I found amusing.

EDIT: Took a screenshot

I’ve seen that movie twice but I don’t remember this detail. What was special about it?

The scene where >!the shaman projectile vomits blood from his nose and mouth!< is still one of the most shocking and impressive effects I’ve seen in a horror movie.

The initial cut of Event Horizon(1997) was shot in 4 weeks! I think re-shoots pushed production back to two or three months. But for such a hellish production, it's one of the best sci-fi horror movies out there!

Its a shame because i really dig his work. Ive seen all of his movies but never finish them. I either doze off or just lose interest halfway through

Check out margin call, shot in 17 days with an absurdly good cast

Margin Call

Budget of 3.5mil, made in 17 days, and it feels like it from the extremely quick pace - J.C. Chandor’s first movie, came out spraying

So glad Fassbender is back. Imo a top 3 actor from the 2010s dude is so good

I agree it's odd they kept the line yet deleted the run up to it. Wish we could see the original cut.

I've actually watched and enjoyed 2001. I think I may just not like mobster movies.

I've seen Goodfellas and thought it was fine. I think it's a genre thing.

Also don’t forget about the boyfriend’s story arc. It’s mentioned throughout the film that the boyfriend’s lifestyle was rejected by the church and by his family, and that he had stopped eating and gotten very thin before ultimately committing suicide. So Frasier’s character basically eating himself to death contrasted with his boyfriend not eating and wasting away until he died.

I agree with the exception of Fantastic Mr Fox

Yeah, its really not a story driven plot; it's more about experiencing the emotional makeup of the main character for a few hours.

A lot of character driven independent films are like this--not a lot of plot, but all about "a day in the life of" only they do it well.

Which is why he paid a massive settlement. I never said what he did was right (it wasn’t) or ethical (it wasn’t), but Mark made it happen and that’s all that really matters.

Yeah, I fucked up with the "not American" lol. That's what I get for redditing before my morning coffee.

I think the first movie of Christopher Nolan is about something like that: Following (1999)

DNF I got bored about halfway through nothing ever happened.

Lol whatever you say. You’ve literally got an entire thread of people laughing in your face at how stupid your post is.

Here we go with every other post saying, "It gave me so much anxiety!" or "It was so anxiety inducing!" or some variation using the word "anxiety."

It was a shit movie, filled with non stop everyone yelling over each other so much you couldn't understand a goddamn word. When Christopher Nolan makes a film and you can't understand the dialog, its non stop criticism...but in this film when you can't understand the dialog, its "art" or "a great film" or whatever. The concept and story was fine, but the execution was horrible, and there was nothing spectacular about the acting either.

I can only thing I can gather that the reason so many people like it, is because they grew up in homes with non stop yelling and arguing, and as adults, this film reminds them of that "anxiety inducing" childhood and as people do, look back on their childhoods filled with fear and anxiety and intensity with fondness, even when it wasn't so great. Comments like this and this prove the point.

I would say the scene when Brad Pitt hesitate to pull the trigger at the end of Seven

Fun fact, the studio would only let Spielberg make Schindler’s List if he did Jurassic Park first. They were still in post production on JP when filming SL so during the day Spielberg would be crafting the somber images from a genocide and during the nights he would watch dailies of the dinosaur CGI. Unsurprisingly, he’s said it took a toll on him

fair enough!
