There’s a certain chill in the air. Pumpkin spice is back on the menu, long sleeve hoodies, and the turning of the leaves. That can mean but one thing. Nolan has another movie out.
Today we have Tenet[2020]. Weltall describes it as the Nolaniest Nolan film that has yet to Nolan. It’s about time travel, sort of. Protagonist gets involved when a terror attack occurs at a theater performance by time reversed moving soldiers. Normally us saying “protagonist” would be there because Tim forgot the character name and not a cheeky mark by a director. Nolan though wanted to see if he could outdo the use of “unobtainium”.
Like a certain fictional federal agent, we like some damn fine coffee. Pour yourself a lungo draw of espresso and sit back while we regale you with two whole manga for the price of one show.
So imagine that this year is a really ominous night club. We’re all on stage at once, doing something of a talent show. And every time the audience of faceless demons is displeased, one of us is selected and thrown into a pit. Apparently someone dropped their spinning plates and so they took Chadwick Bosemen.
Sometimes there are things that pop culture discussion revolves around for a hot minute. These things are usually forgotten by the time something more interesting come along. Like what kind of vaginal worms some Instagram “influencer” has been using to tighten up the old hallway.
Remember last year? People used to smile more. Also there was a new Doom movie. Because we hadn’t had one of those for a good long while. It was shopped around for a distributor to send to theaters. When no one bit, it was off to see if a streaming service would take it. When even nutflux can’t be bothered to offer a pittance, you know it’s bad.
Six ways from Sunday, any which way you can get a box of rocks. That’s how you get ready for Halloween when Mr Brown comes round. You could throw it at him but it’s more cruel to just put it in his sack. This allows him hope and the upcoming disappointment is so much richer.
Remember when Joker came out and every shitty hack kept saying it was just a ripoff of two Scorsese movies? We’ve both seen Taxi Driver(1976) and didn’t see much resemblance. So that left only one other movie in the pair to watch and review. King Of Comedy(1982).
Are you asking for life coaching from us? Oh shit, we were not prepared for that. If you want our advice we have only this to say. Walk talk. Think tall. Crouch tall and talk short.
Would Nic Cage kill his kids for money? That’s the question the movie attempts to answer in Mom and Dad[2017]. Selma Blair and Cage are parents in a Californian suburb. Their kids suck and they both dream of their youth now wasted. Then something happens where modern TVs start generating static and parents start killing their kids. It goes nowhere and attempts to be far too clever while not exploring the symbolism or the scifi aspect.
The Twin Peaks of manga is back. How are we like Twin Peaks? Well, there’s two of us and we review two manga. Also we don’t make sense to casual viewers either.
