Reply to comment by Mrman_23 in New 'Spider-Verse' Short Film Coming From Sony Pictures Animation by Zealousideal_Way_165
>In the short, Miles Morales struggles to balance his responsibilities as a teenager, friend and student while acting as Brooklyn’s friendly neighborhood superhero. After a particularly challenging day living with these pressures, Miles experiences a panic attack that forces him to confront the manifestations of his anxiety and learn that reaching out for help can be just as brave an act as protecting his city from evil.
Probably not but I love the idea!

I saw the North American premiere of this at the Toronto International Film Festival. The whole crowd was just losing their collective shit from start to finish. We didn't know what hit us. Unforgettable experience.

I have seen this movie. No one even remotely looking like Anya is in the movie.

The Batman was too long. Did you know The Batman was too long? I liked The Batman but it was just too long. Every movie is too long these days, especially The Batman. Did you hear that? The Batman is way too long.

Redditors: Nothing new and creative is made anymore, it's all established IP. The film industry is ruined because of Disney/Marvel/DC/whatever brand.
Also redditors: Oh a director made an original film? I don't know who any of those characters are and it isn't rooted in something I already know. Therefore, I'm scared to pay money to see it.

“What happened to this actor/why aren’t they in anything anymore?” and 75-80% of the time OP clearly hasn’t bothered to check IMDB because the actor in question has actually done a lot of indie/foreign/TV/stage/etc. stuff in the years since OP last saw them in something.

>Movie that makes me feel uncomfortable but there's actually nothing wrong with it: problematic.
Building off of this one; movies where the protagonist is a terrible person or amoral character are problematic because they're "praising terrible behavior".
Like, no, the whole point of a movie with terrible person as the protagonist is to explore how being a bad person will eventually cause you ruin in the end.

Right, exactly. Minus the part of someone pushing you to see something you don’t wanna see, hope that’s not how you took my comment.

Your first point is just a Lucky Ten Thousand problem… you’re never gonna run out of people discovering things for the first time, or people wanting to share this thing they just learned with others. That’s just people learning.
Replace Big Trouble with anything else, literally any other topic, and somewhere there will be someone moaning about how tired they are of hearing about a detail that is familiar to them, but not to others. Oh god, yes, everyone knows that the infinite tessellation of non-Euclidean space is a hyperbolic honeycomb, so sick of hearing about it.

Well, they are different types of action. Both are good. But seeing Fury Road in the big screen is a totally unique experience.

Probably Queen's Gambit. Both deal with Russian/KGB and he probably got it mix up with Anya.

I think the whole unpopular opinion thing has become a way for people to get people to talk about a topic that they want to talk about without saying “I just saw movie XYZ and thought it was great, lets talk about it in this thread”, which I guess would be kind of weird. Like whenever I search this sub for some 30 year old movie I just watched, only upvoted ones with discussion are either “X movie is amazing, Y was so good playing that character” or “Z movie is criminally underrated. How is no one talking about it?”.

Yeah, I just delved into Wong Kar Wai too; his movies are phenomenal. For a myriad of reasons, Happy Together has always been my favorite. Well, it’s tied with Chungking Express, but it’s hard to top it.
