I can certainly see why a lot of user reviews on IMDB found it boring and pointless but I loved the slow pace and intensity. Seems like it could suffer from the same fate Speak No Evil did for a lot of non-danish may even non-europeans. They simply can't relate to the people and way of movie making (to be even more snarky it's just too real ;)).

I don't know I others feel this way or it's been mentioned before but I feel like the "back" button should be moved to the bottom left instead of the top left. The reach is a bit straining and not natural. Maybe swipe would be even better.

elcuello Link ParentI read that as "God Vibes" and immediately pictured Steve Buscemi with a skateboard but it kinda works though."I hope things turn out alright, but I don't have the ability (or will) to do anything directly to help you, so here are some Good Vibes instead"

I wasn't even the directors cut and I have no idea about any mm or other specifications but to get to experience that movie on the big screen was something special no matter what considering I was too young when it first premiered.
I somehow missed the first Avatar several times and I don't know how. I'm not particular interested in the movie but it seems like it could be a cool experience on the big screen. I haven't watched any of them yet in any form.

The volume was so loud that my mom had to cover her ears most of the movie and I seriously considered asking if they could turn it down as I noticed others were doing the same. Instead I wrote an e-mail afterward asking what to do in those situations and the answer was quite surprising. Apparently according to the theater they we're not allowed to tamper with any volume settings as the correct setting was given from the production company beforehand. I've never heard this before and also my wife got another theater to turn the volume down during a kids movie a couple of weeks ago so I'm doubting this is a legit answer. On top of that I thought the movie itself was well...kind of boring and uninteresting and I love Nolan.

Went from ankle deep in plastic cups one year to literally no cups on the ground the next. It was like magic. It also helped that you could hand in the cups at the same place you bought more beverages and they would just offset the amount. Convenience is key here.

I'm currently around 6 hours (chapter 7) inn Neal Stephenson's Seveneves and although I like it it's kinda boring and I don't know if I'm willing to put another 26 hours into this if it doesn't pick up soon. I like the scientific approach and find it interesting but it gets a bit excessive at times and makes me think about Patrick Batemans obsessive ramblings about music. Anyone here read it and can tell me if these first chapters are representing the rest accurately?

Been home sick after wisdom tooth removal and that gave me some time to watch whatever I felt like for a change.
As Above, So Below was OK. Was a bit distracted throughout so maybe it was scarier than my first impression. Kinda let down about what it was down there it felt unoriginal.
Ad Astra was way better that expected. I don't know why this movie didn't peak my interest before be it the description or trailer. I liked the lonely dark feeling but still the movie wasn't great in the end just fine.
I watched Circle (2015) again because there's just something about simple concept movies that attracts me even though they're often pretty bad. It's OK but again not great. I can't help myself when it comes to these kind of movies and I don't know why because this movie really didn't deserve a rewatch.
