LOL, it’s a movie I have defended a bit. A lot of my friends that grew up on MASH reruns really dislike the movie. I have seen my fair share of the TV show but there were a few things that always kept me from loving it (I hated laugh track and the dramedy tone shifts of the TV show). I first saw the movie during an Altman kick in college and enjoyed it much more.
Great movie. I think I appreciated the middle part more than the beginning/end.
I'd agree. Though it was a 2 hour film I felt it was a very quick 2 hours because of how much the 3 acts contrasted eachother. But that contrast helped to show just how devastating something like that can be for a person, especially when they seemingly do have the resources but struggle to accept the reality of it all. I felt like I was going through it all with him which speaks volumes to both the direction and the performances.
Finally got around to seeing this. I think it's concept of time travel is really unique and super interesting but way too convoluted. I understand this was made for the theaters but can't imagine I would have been satisfied paying 15-20 bucks to watch it once and coming out without an understanding of what was going on. I might be stupid but I had to watch it twice and both times, i abused the rewind button like crazy before being able to piece it together. With that said and after watching it, I'd want to see this in imax for sure although not now - and probably by the time I feel safe doing so, It'll be too late.

Are these all movies that you like? Or is there some kind of hidden message here?
I was curious about that too. Also, depending on your reasoning, and if you haven’t done so already; you may wanna look into the Letterboxd app. I use it a little bit but I think it’s a great idea for keeping stock of what you’ve been watching.

Yeah I was just curious about the meaning of those posts since there wasn’t any message other than the links. I apologize if I came across as being a jerk or like, policing what gets posted here. I feel bad when people post stuff and no one replies or reacts on their stuff and in this situation I wasn’t sure what the context was (and figured that others probably didn’t either) so was trying to figure out how to engage/respond. I think it’s fine for anyone to post whatever they want in this thread related to movies - I know i do.
Not sure. I knew there wasn’t any ill intent but the internet is a weird place and ripe for misinterpretation. Probably best to just move on for now. Hopefully, they’ll feel comfortable to join us back here to talk about movies and shit.
Nice! I followed ya but You’re gonna need an Avatar.
You're absolutely right..I'll get on that!
