lol H4A
this movie was kind of terrible but I didn't mind watching it

im somewhat serious about that - i do think the movie was meant to indict male gaze-iness in nerd culture by inviting dudes to watch hot babes and guns and explosions and all that crap, but then pulling a switcheroo on em with all the feelbad stuff. its just unimaginably stupid and tasteless in the execution
― Hungry4Ass, Thursday, 26 July 2012 13:37 (eleven years ago) link
no I think that's OTM, including the stupid tasteless execution
it's still funny tho

I thought I would really like this movie but when I finally saw it, the battle scenes were uninteresting to me, just manufactured CGI crap that went on for 3x too long. So sad.

yeah if you aren't into the battle scenes there is zero reason to watch this movie unless you really, really like rolling your eyes

I like the martial arts/real people parts but not the ceaseless gunfire for no good reason and explosions of things that wouldn't have blown up irl etc.

Also the whole movie was really video gamey? It felt like Kings Quest II or something: "These are the articles you must find to escape the wizard's castle. Your journey will be completely linear."

i hated this movie so much

lol why is this not surprising
― keeping things contextual (DJP), Thursday, 26 July 2012 17:48 (eleven years ago) link
its like the thinking mans "sky captain and the world of tomorrow"
― O_o-O_O-o_O (jjjusten), Thursday, 26 July 2012 18:30 (eleven years ago) link
in a shock even to me, i actually hated this more than i hated "300" which is saying something
― O_o-O_O-o_O (jjjusten), Thursday, 26 July 2012 18:31 (eleven years ago) link
o_O
I have to date successfully kept myself from seeing "Sky Captain" even though that type of plasticy-looking stupidity appeals directly to my id and that statement has just reminded me that I should change that

Does this film have a rabid cult following of morons yet?

Srsly never never seen anyone mention/notice it much since it came out
― sonic thedgehod (albvivertine), Sunday, 16 March 2014 21:03 (ten years ago) link
However I'm watching it now. Why is it called Sucker Punch?
― sonic thedgehod (albvivertine), Saturday, 18 July 2015 13:05 (eight years ago) link
it might have helped if the trailers had mentioned the fact that it's a movie about lobotomies and rape

That's as good an explanation as any tbh

speaking literally, the theatrical cut isn't terribly rapey. implicitly, sure, in that female characters are trapped and abused and forced to dance in an (imaginary) burlesque club. well, and there's an attempted rape near the end.ok lol?― Marilyn Hagerty: the terroir of tiny town (Abbbottt), Wednesday, March 21, 2012 9:56 PM (3 years ago) Bookmark Flag Post Permalink"the women are forced into sexual bondage and there's an attempted rape; I'd give it only 3/10 rapey points"― Marilyn Hagerty: the terroir of tiny town (Abbbottt), Wednesday, March 21, 2012 9:57 PM (3 years ago) Bookmark Flag Post Permalink
