“When you fuck with death, things get messy.”

Tony Todd’s scene brought sad tears to my eyes. RIP to a legend. On the other side, all these dope kills brought happy tears to my eyes. It’s so much fun, especially in a theater, and the death related soundtrack goes hard as fuck. Don’t see it with your cousins, though.

UPDATE: my low tire pressure light went on as I was driving home on the highway and then the song I was listening to (shoutout Bike Routes) started talking about dying in a fireball on the highway. Thought Death was about to cook me for a minute.

“Our entire life is a punishment.”

Robert Pattinson and his Steve Buscemi voice won me over immediately. Not Bong’s greatest but a fun time with some good visuals and campy performances.

“The gates of hell are open night and day; smooth the descent, and easy is the way: but to return, and view the cheerful skies, in this the task and mighty labour lies.”

I don’t think it’s better than Gladiator but in of sequels years later it’s a great time. Some cool bloody bits, a naval Colosseum battle, hot people being hot, and some decapitations! That all works for me.

“Lady and gentlemens, start your engines!”

What a blast! Chris Hemsworth was a gem, the score fucked, Anya Taylor-Joy was a giant badass, and it looked beautiful and grimy in all the right ways.

“Now that you know our past, you will know your future”

Felt like I was watching the Devils play in game 7 overtime of the Stanley Cup Final for the entire runtime. Just on the edge of my seat fully engaged. Last 90 minutes or so had me hooting, hollering, and howling. What a picture!!!

“I ain’t got nothing but regrets, Bill.”

Beautiful yet tragic from start to finish. The pacing was so good that I never felt like I was watching such a long movie. Unreal performances from everyone but Lily Gladstone was easily the standout. Hard to put how incredible she was into words.

“Now it’s your turn to deal with the consequences of your achievement.”

Chris had his fastball hitting 100 MPH consistently during all 3 hours! Cinema!!!

“So, eleven hundred men went into the water, three hundred sixteen men come out, and the sharks took the rest, June the 29th, 1945.”

Obviously all the casting is great but Murray Hamilton as a shitty mayor is so fucking good.
