Using Morse code through the bookshelf to tell Dan Campbell not to go for it on 4th and 24 during the 4th quarter of the Super Bowl

They adapted the musical numbers to perfection, wish a little more time was spent executing on the parts in between. 

I still really enjoyed it but other than some really cool set design I don’t know how much the film medium adds to this incredible musical. 

Really scared the second I hit post on this review for the movie ( I STILL LIKED IT) Paige is going to punch me. Please pray for me tonight as we overcome our differences.

Maverick mustache is out, Dementus beard is in for the summer.

Not taking credit for this idea, I think I read it or heard it earlier today. But it’s just so incredible how this script makes fun of the religious extremism letting it linger around like harmless fun until it gets out of hand and consumes everything. I just think there’s a lot of power in that concept not just with religion but anything. 

Anyways this thing bangs so hard, I mean that opening with the Harkonnen floating down slowly against the red background. Just breathtaking stuff.

Just gonna drop this spicy log

Full thoughts after I rewatch Saturday I was too busy having a fantastic time at the Escape Hatch meetup to fully articulate my thoughts after one viewing.

This is my “literally me” movie. What an absolutely pathetic short king. 

There’s a good chance I’ll be back here later to write more. If not someone remind me.

Edit: I actually didn’t really feel like writing more

Scorsese got sick of people accidentally mistaking his protagonists for heroes and decided to go all in this time. Martin Scorsese is 80 years old, I thought 80 year old white men are suppose to be yelling at the news. Instead Scorsese hops out of bed in the morning, throws on his grandpa pants, and creates one of the most staggering achievments in film this decade. A masterclass in directing, writing and acting.

 “Cultural humility involves an ongoing process of self-exploration and self-critique combined with a willingness to learn from others.”

Don’t have a great deal more to say, I went into pretty good detail the first time. This viewing I really focused more on the sound design because I already had a full grasp on the story, and wow I knew it was good but I was dumbfounded by the beauty of it. 

Also I could argue all day about why I think the women in this movie are in fact layered and well written despite many complaints. The main argument being that this is an incredibly subjective movie from Oppenheimer’s perspective, this is how HE saw these women not how Christopher Nolan sees them.
