Well TITANE—that was packed full of bizarre!
🚗 💪🐣 👀
@Jezibaba LOL I didn’t disconnect right away and heard you exclaim something like, “That was one fucked-up movie!!!” 😂😂😂
@Apocryphiliac guilty. It was. When I was talking about it, not scene by scene, but shock by shock I was getting looks. 😂
@Jezibaba 😂👍 I mean you weren’t wrong! 🤣
I’m glad I didn’t before watching it. I was confused enough as it was. 😅
@Apocryphiliac oh I told them we were definitely smoking up before I make them watch it. 😈
@Jezibaba lmao. Yeah, since you’ve already seen it, you want that to get the befuddled stoned reactions out of anyone you introduce to it going forward. That’ll be at least half of the fun. 😎
@Apocryphiliac we were so baked when we watched Children of Men. I mean almost catatonic high and it became the standard measure for being fucked up during fucked up movies. I'm a get them real high for this one.
@Jezibaba Cuarón, I am hit and miss on (I love CoM though) but definitely the guy (or his DP) knows how to work camera movement in a way that would be… visually interesting to the catatonically high. 😁
@Apocryphiliac that one still gets me, I think about frequently and it's been 8 yrs.
@Jezibaba it’s a pretty rough watch! It feels too realistic for comfort when they’re in the war zones and security check areas.
@Apocryphiliac the premise of what we are capable of doing to ourselves even on the brink of extinction. So much going on, again. I love it.
@Jezibaba If we watch RAW, I will definitely get stoned beforehand since I’ve seen it before. 😂
@Apocryphiliac thanks for the advanced notice 😈
@Jezibaba 😂🤣
@Apocryphiliac thank you for a fucked up ride. I had fun. Still processing it.
@Jezibaba My pleasure! Thanks for joining us on the crazy train!👹✌️💚
@Apocryphiliac Sorry I missed the watch along, but I will watch soon!
@thudfactor Have you seen RAW? I would watch it first if you haven’t… In fact I will likely revisit that one this week if you want to catch it that way. This is a very “far out” movie. 😂
My pre-ordered BR for Ti West’s “X” should be arriving today and I’ve been _so_ looking forward to it. Probably going to stream that one tonight. 😁
@Apocryphiliac Bought it, watched it, wrote a review!
@thudfactor “ Justine demonstrating a (perhaps belated) understanding of mutual consent.”
“ When the stomach wants what the heart wants, things can get a little messy.”
😂😂😂 That’s brilliant. 👏👏👏
@thudfactor “ Some critics have complained that Raw is “lurid.” It didn’t strike me that way the first time through, but since I have been eating a steady diet of giallo and horror movies over the past few years, my bar is probably set a little higher than your average Cannes critic.”
😂😂😂
@Apocryphiliac Thank you! I am glad you enjoyed it!
@thudfactor Very much so, Thud. 👍👍 Thank you for sharing that.
@Apocryphiliac still talking about. Need a re-watch.
