lol ya know what I thought it was hilarious
24 year old me knowssss 14 year old me would have eaten this shit up fork and knife like who wouldn’t want to just have to exist and be nothing more than mediocre for every guy to fall for her and protect her at all costs…that’s love right?…
on second thought it is probably better this did not infiltrate me in my formative years
4 stars for the laughter and cultural significance
Stream of consciousness as I watched:
- Ok why is gollum just Dobby
- And Gandalf is Hagrid…
- “The lord of all horses” lol
- I can’t keep track of all the blond women with flowing hair and billowing white dresses (are they different? I think I’ve counted 3? Or 4?)
- Omg a wizard exorcism
- And why does Frodo look like Harry Potter…
- Damn there’s an extended version? I truly couldn’t possibly imagine this be longer
Ok I went into this knowing nothing and honestly I went a long time not knowing if it was a real investigation or if they were just really elaborate serial killers - why did they seem so creepyyyyy like the whole time??
Butttt wow the snail scenes had me mesmerized that was super cool to watch
Overall, pretty good and great performance from Syd
Ok people are hating but I enjoyed this
Watching it in the theater where I fell in love with film, it reminded me of the magic
Though the third act was cheesy and I was expecting more of a twist/thought provoking bang, I thought the movie throughout had such insane color grading and visceral sensory detail (omg the dogs sniffing/licking up the blood will stick in my memory for a longggggg time ahhh)
Overall I would have left more satisfied if the ending made me think more/surprised me but wow it was amazing to feel that magic again
