JUST SAW THE FNAF 2 MOVIE LETS GOOOO

ANOTHER BANGER, CANT WAIT FOR THE NEXT ONE

I saw this with my sister on the early screening of December 4th! For the first time I experienced clapping once the movie ended, that was wild. Got my first special popcorn bucket too!

You bet I'm getting the dvd once it's available >:D

I really want to see the April Fool’s thing today but I was injured pretty bad in a crash yesterday so it’s a little hard to look at screens for long 😞 Has the event been fun? It looked like a cat snake thing haha

I watched Wuthering Heights and while I understand people being upset because it's not a "faithful" adaptation (something i'd argue against actually, because it's just more character focused than plot focused, but it does touch the pivotal points of the story. anyway) I don't understand people being so bitchy about it. From the very beginning Emerald Fennell said this was a different take on the story, that it was like a fever dream (check✔️) and there are like 30 movies based on the book, why would you want yet another one that repeats the exact same thing again? (like the 2011 fiasco)

The film is shot beautifully and they made the most of the liberties they took aesthetically-wise, the costumes are great (i'm a fashion designer. I have an informed opinion), the acting is fine (just fine imo, not mindblowing), it's horny, it's kinky, it's disgusting and it punches you in the fucking gut when it should

i'm not saying you shouldn't be critical about it (i am, i have things to say about some of the acting, the soundtrack and the ending in particular) but i think the negative reaction it's getting online is disproportionate. And honestly I don't think people would be raging about it like this if it wasnt directed by a woman (or by Emerald more specifically lol), but what do we know of rampant misogyny disguised as being critical, right?

The complaints about the romantization or wtv of Isabella's role.... i don't know if it's being romanticized? Sexualized? Definitely. But everyone knows Heathcliff is being an absolute fucking monster to her, he says so himself! she knows it! everyone sees it! no one denies it! Which!! Even if they were denying it, i'll have you know, this is gothic story telling!!!!!! ("Media literacy is dead and the new WH is proof of it" are you listening to yourself???😭😭) Even at the points where you can see her being "into it" it feels like she's been brainwashed, there's no mistaking it as anything else imo

Anyway. Maybe it's thanks to Interview with the Vampire (2022) that i'm less inclined to be such a purist about book to screen adaptations, especially when they're done well, especially when they're classics that are almost 200 years old. I just find it funny that the same people who praise things like Wicked (essentially a fanfic!!!!) feel so utterly enraged about this movie

Finally and for the record, Wuthering Heights is one of my favourite books. I read it for the first time when i was barely a teenager, i've reread it probably like 8 times since then, so it is a story I hold close to my heart. My best friends felt the same and I heard a lot of people coming out of my screening saying they liked it (a local movie critic happened to be in my screening and he gifted us beautiful handmade bookmarkers he made himself), so, idk. I think i've accepted this movie/director are the ones people online have chosen to be their punching bag and that's fine by me as long as you let other people enjoy it, keep all your hate it in the appropiate tags and use your brains<3 i'll be happy over here and rewatching in a few days :)

I feel I'm one of the few who like to imagine that things weren't fixed after the pictures got covered up on "that one" Bully mission. The story is clearly told from Jimmy's POV so he may think that's what happened, but in a hypothetical Mandy POV... the matter is 100% completely different. The trauma is still there, the awful experience cannot be cancelled. Maybe I'm someone who looks too deeply into a game that shouldn't be analyzed that way. We can discuss it but still... im someone who, as who did experienced some fucked up things in my life, is fully aware of how heavily these kinds of matters hit you and I want to imagine how much evolves into Mandy's mind, not forgetting also into adulthood. I don't know if what I'm saying makes any sense but that is how I feel in that regard. I take my narratives seriously no matter what, this is what being a psychological horror analyst does to a person... lol (No seriously, I have a degree in horror art. I am someone who deeply loves analyzing media no matter what... dang 😭)
