      I cannot wait to see Sasquatch Sunset. Animals from my work are in the film, including Spike the porcupine who was waving in the trailer. She is the oldest living porcupine at 21 years old. It will be weird AF, we have been warned since production, amd the emotions will be so wverywhere due to our personal connection, but we are buying out a theater to see it next week and excited to see our animals be movie stars!!

      I finally got around to watching We're All Going to the World's Fair a couple of months ago and I loved it so much. Just like Amanda was saying about I Saw the TV Glow, it just wouldn't leave my head for like a month. The way it portrays how isolating and tantalizing the Internet is growing up with it and trying to figure out who you are just hit so well. It sounds like I Saw the TV Glow will be a similar thing and I can't wait to see what Jane Schoenbrun can do with what looks to be a much bigger budget!

    By the way, I don't know if there's any way you could have influenced this, but the full trailer ad for the Fall Guy literally popped up right after your review for civil war and immediately before your review of The Fall Guy. Perfect embedded marketing achieved. I'm definitely going to watch that one now.

    They, uh, warned us and prepared.
    IIRC the tech sector ran themselves ragged working to make sure it wouldn’t do what they were worried about but it worked so well everyone thought they were over exaggerating it all.
    I’m so glad that never happened again. Ever.

    I finally went to Sundance for the first time after avoiding like the plague for almost 20 years with tickets from a work lottery. The only slot I could get was an 8:45 am showing of A Different Man. Anyone who has been to park city in the winter knows that the traffic is a nightmare especially in the morning but that movie was so worth it. I love awkward sebastian stan and Adam Pearson is the most delightful person. Definitely recommend (if you don’t mind body horror)
    Also the cinematographer for its what’s inside was one of my dad’s best friends in college so I love that you loved it

    Honestly, a person named Amanda The Jedi and states she doesn't know Katy O'Brien from anywhere is Ironic. Katy was a bad Imperial guy in Andor who tortured a scientist to death while eating an apple. Andor is a great pre-quel story to Rogue One. She rocked in Andor and in Love Lies Bleeding.

      Andor's been on my to watch list for a while and it's the only star wars thing I'm excited to get back to! Disney and the fanbase as a whole really just kinda killed any desire to engage with new material in the franchise. Basically when Mando S2 turned into a 'let's beta test 10 different potential series instead of making something great' I was out.

    Civil War I'll see when its on streaming as I heard there is a shooting scene thats probably as annoying as Season 8 of Walking Dead was, the gunfire season, for that reason I'm good waiting. Honestly I've not really missed going to the theater, I went and saw Ghostbusters frozen empire, while it was fun it wasn't worth it imo. Glad I saw it, but eh.
    And speaking of TWD, I loved Rick and Michonne's spin off The Ones Who Live. Mainly because Matthew Jeffers was in it and I saw him and Danai in King Richard in NYC. Plus Danai wrote an episode I hope will get her a writing nomination. She's a Obie winner I found out.
    But other than that I loved The Bear (S1&2), Shogun, and Silo.
    Will be looking forward to these once they are on Max, Peacock, Netflix, or even AMC as my AMC+ has Sundance.

    "Lisa Frankenstein" was the first movie I've seen in the theater since 2018, and while IMO it was not a masterpiece of cinema, it was tremendously entertaining ... and I was absolutely shocked to find out that Cole Sprouse can act!
    I just went to see it because I think he's handsome! Turns out he can carry an entire feature based solely on the strength of his facial expressions and physical acting. (Anyone who has seen it will know what I mean.)
    Riverdale was hot garbage from start to end, and he couldn't salvage it at all, so I'm glad he's finally getting things to *do.*
    That being said ... based on the promotional images for his movie mentioned in this video, I definitely thought it was about a polyamorous romantic relationship. Oops. The next time I accidentally see him in the wild in L.A., maybe I'll throw myself on my sword about it and let him scold me.

    Talking about Cole, has anyone here seen Lisa Frankenstein? This is one of the best movies I have seen this year, and I think Amanda would love it but I see the viewers really divided about it. Granted, it is quirky and cut off from the reality but aren't all movies like this? I just had so much fun watching it. I understand why some people don't like it all that much but I would not call it a bad movie under any circumstance.

  • @SPVFilmsLtd

    I think MONKEY MAN's flaws as a film for international audiences - particularly in dealing with its supposedly 'slow' middle - is that it chooses not to catch non-Indian audiences up on its symbolism, its cultural context and its subtextual content.
    For me, the middle - from the Dev's character diving into the river until the start of Act 3 - was phenomenal, it was moving, touching, engaging, it was the segment that made this film into something special and something transcendent beyond the exhausting comic book nonsense of, for instance, the JOHN WICK films. But the problem is that I'm Indian and I picked up on EVERY reference, EVERY image, EVER symbolic contrast or comparison the film was making. I was weeping in places and I was charged with anger at the system the film depicts which is very accurate to the realities faced by India and other Asian nations. I picked up on the hints in the soundtrack, the significance of the religious aspects and the power of the narrative it's trying to shape while not getting bogged down with India's very idiosyncratic social and political injustices that resemble virtually nothing of what's happening in the West's version of those kinds of corruption.
    The content IS there, in full force, pedal to the floor. It's just that the film doesn't take the time to pull outsiders in and help them see it. And I think that some of the action sequences could have been trimmed to make room for more nuanced presentations of that content.
    I think MONKEY MAN's flaws really highlight how hegemonic and colonialist genre cinema is. A French invention dominated by American industry and cultural capital; audiences in the West are far less informed of the culture of the East than audiences in the East are informed about the cultures of the West. It's a really interesting problem of art and commerce, but it highlights - IMHO - that if we really want to enjoy the incredibly rich variety of content that the rest of the planet has to offer for English-language-centric cinema, especially genre films, that filmmakers and audiences need to start teaching each other how to stop relying on Hollywood to teach us pretty much all we know about the world.
    In a world where CIS, straight men on the CZcamss keep telling us that OPPENHEIMER is the "pinnacle" of filmmaking, MONKEY MAN reminds us that films are still created, marketed and consumed in protected little bubbles of ignorance. MONKEY MAN could have tried a little harder to flesh out (in a Western lens) its uniquely Indian content that genuinely supports the film's emotional arc...and audiences could try harder to subject themselves to a broader diet of films and not just what their local multiplex or streamer (or even film festivals which are still viewing movies largely through a Western lens) tells us is worthy cinema.
    Love your summations and your channel, as always.
