When your only other option seems to be a sadistic sociopath who thinks your muteness is your most attractive quality, then I suppose the scaly creature from the black lagoon might seem like a good bet for a boink. But I still wished that Sally Hawkins could get it on with someone a little less amphibious before relocating forever to the bottom of the damn ocean.

Vicky Krieps is getting gypped elsewhere for being the unknown among Phantom Thread's big three. (And also I guess her character is not ultimately someone male voters can fantasize about.)

tbh this is one of the most consensus of years – I've seen the same movies pop up on everyone's lists.

It happens every year. Every detrius thread charts the progression from "everything's on the table" to "so there really were only seven or eight movies released last year, eh?"

Not seeing The Other Side of Hope enough, or BPM high enough.
OK, after 5 minutes of searching the site, I'll bite: can one see the VV ballots/full results?

Is there any reason to suspect that Dunkirk isn't exactly what I would expect from a WWII flick by Nolan (busy yet boring action scenes, a lot of portentous dialogue, moralism delivered with sledgehammer force)?
― Dangleballs and the Ballerina (cryptosicko), Tuesday, 13 February 2018 20:52 (six years ago) link
it's better than his usual because it has almost no dialogue and the action scenes are crisp but it's like other Nolan films in that it has no reason to exist
― morning wood truancy (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 13 February 2018 20:54 (six years ago) link
The amount of dialogue is relatively spare. It's a somewhat unusual narrative skein, but yes a lot of (gen downbeat) war-movie tropes in a pretty package. xp
― ice cream social justice (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 13 February 2018 20:55 (six years ago) link
for those who saw dunkirk: does it forfeit its reason to be watched on a television; that is, should i have caught it in theaters or not at all?
