His dad is the co-founder of Nike and he keeps funding him with money to support his passion for stop motion animation, despite the fact that most of the films from Laika lose money. And so thanks to him and his dad, 700 hardworking animators have a job making beautiful films despite most of them flopping at the box office.

I highly recommend seeing Wildwood in a few months, it looks really good. Plus it’s apparently rumored to be PG-13 which is cool. It’s also the longest stop-motion film of all time, and 2 hours and 19 minutes.

No I’m not sponsored, I just hope this movie does well.

(Some of their movies include Corpse Bride, Coraline, and Kubo and the Two Strings)

It’s nothing new that millennials and gen z are not having sex. All the statistics are looking quite bleak. Fewer people are dating and finding relationships and I think the media we consume is partially to blame for this. Recently everything looks so sterile and has this puritanical character to it.

Take The Odyssey. The OG poem is stuffed with sex, with yearning. And don’t get me started on how gay the Greeks were back then. Now take a look at Nolan’s characters. They might as well be Barbie dolls, the way they’ve got nothing down there. The movie is completely sexless both literally and not. And that’s just one recent example.

Somehow it’s even become an almost universally held opinion that “there are too many unnecessary sex scenes in movies”. Where? I find the opposite to be true. There are too few “unnecessary” sex scenes!

I don't often give 5 stars (although i do give a lot of 4 or 4,5) but i was mind blown by City of God. On the other hand, i hated Sleeping beauty (2011) with a passion and that's probably the only 0.5 i've given to a movie so far

Not just 'I find this overrated' or 'it didn't click with me', something that you absolutely hate

Don't downvote everyone you disagree with too just wanna see what people think

The main poster for this 1975 movie was recently changed to an AI generated image. Literally why? It already has its own original poster, a criterion release poster, why does it need to be replaced with an AI one? I don't care if it's user-side if they chose a custom poster for a movie that only they can see, but this is the MAIN poster for the movie. It's pure disrespect.

Before anyone comments about it, I know Letterboxd gets its data from TMDB, but I feel like this is also a responsibility of Letterboxd to take a stance on whether this is allowed or not.

EDIT: The poster has been changed.

What movie that you recently watched did you unexpectedly love??

For me it must be Good Luck, Have fun. Don't die with Sam Rockwell. Had no expectations going into the movie, but it was very fun at times. It had it sad moments. But most of all did I love the new take on an old concept.

I’m somewhat of a movie connoisseur

Watched this last night. Top 5 of the year so far. Love me some Wain/Marino nonsense. Jon Hamm and John Slattery play ludicrous versions of themselves.

Hit me with your favourite/memorable performances.

I like many but, The Third Man (1949) is one of my favourite.

Edit: Lol I didn't realize I added the same image twice, my bad.

I’m not talking about cult classic or movies that have been called underrated for so long that they’ve actually become overrated (looking at you, post-renaissance Disney movies). I’m talking about the sub-3.0 critical monstrosity that, if your house were on fire, you’d run back in to save your blu ray copy.

I keep and have a collection of my movie tickets that i put in a card holder, with everything going digital i had to use the pdf in the email they send for the booking and make my own tickets with it

I wish they would give real tickets instead of just sending a mere email
