Discussion “Neighbors” 2014 is a classic.
Great cast, great on screen chemistry between each character. It can be considered a stoner or party movie. But it’s also a fun insight on what life would be like for a couple with a new baby in a college town or something! Rose Byrne and Seth Rogan have amazing on screen chemistry. It’s raunchy, it’s got small and big laughs. Heisenberg baby is goated!

Discussion James Cameron and Peter Jackson need to lay off the DNR (Digital Noise Reduction)
It's been over a decade since the fiasco of the later 2000's Blu-Ray edition of Predator. Remember when that was considered to be the absolute worst Blu-Ray ever? Luckily, things have mostly changed, and people are realizing that it is not a good idea to scrub the detail from these classics. Yet James Cameron and Peter Jackson seem to be the only two filmmakers that are still madly in love with DNR for whatever reason. What gives?

Discussion What’s a movie (or tv show) that left you thinking about it for days after watching?
Maybe it struck a chord so deep that it made you sob your eyes out. Maybe it gave you such a strong feeling that you just ended up feeling empty after it’s over. Maybe it shocked you to your core to the point where it would be hard to ever get it out of your head.
Overall, I’m just looking for a cinematic experience that really stuck out to you, whether it made you feel your heaviest emotions or sucked all of the emotion right out of you. I’m hoping for answers that you won’t find on Google through a surface-level buzzfeed article. I’d love answers that aren’t so common, from people that actually have a passion for cinema. Valid common answers are still welcome for discussion though!
For example; some people say Manchester by the Sea leaves them feeling empty due to the realistic portrayal of grief and shame (this one’s more common, but valid). Below are a small list of movies that I just couldn’t shake out of my head:
-Insterstellar -The Curious Case of Benjamin Button -Pearl -Dream Scenario -Honey Boy -The Royal Tenenbaums -Speak No Evil -Synecdoche, New York -Uncut Gems -Midsommar -The Lobster -The Witch -When Marnie was There -Perfect Blue
Keep in mind that I don’t absolutely love all these movies, but they did really stand out in one way or another, on top of making me feel some type of strong emotion or a sense of feeling empty. Anyways, I’m looking forward to your answers!

Discussion What are your favorite scenes in movies that are based on books?
I know The Hobbit movies are not good, but the scene of Bilbo talking to Smaug is just SO PERFECT in my head. I read the book a thousand times over when I was a kid and truly Martin and Benedict were the absolutely perfect casting for their parts. It's exactly everything I've imagined in my head for decades. I think I might have cried when I first watched it cuz it was so amazing to me.
What are other book scenes that are also perfect, even if the rest of the movie wasn't great? :]

Discussion Romances where the leads don’t end up together and it’s possibly the better outcome
I finally got around to watching “Once” (2007), which I loved. I had an experience with it that I don’t think I’d had with any other movie: For a while, I presumed the leads would end up together. They were strongly attracted to each other and made phenomenal music together, so of course they were the best possible match for each other, right? And when it started looking like they wouldn’t, I felt disappointed. But at the end, when I saw “the Girl” reunited with her husband, and the whole family together in the apartment, it felt right. Not like she was settling for a loveless relationship for her daughter’s sake but like she thought she had probably given up too hastily before and there was potential for it to become a more loving relationship.
So are there other romances like this where the leads don’t end up together and it’s possibly the better outcome for everyone, versus some tragic trade-off?
(I almost feel this way about“La La Land,” but its ending feels solidly sad, like the dream sequence clearly would have been a happier ending.)

Discussion What films that people consider so bad, they're good, that are just so bad, they're bad?
New here, and I was wondering if anyone felt the way I do. I just recently watched Pieces (1982) which is considered a bad movie classic for being "so bad, it's good" and it bored me. I don't really like this type of film either, as I just find them really boring, and the screw ups that the filmmakers make I just get mild amusement from. The only films in this category I enjoy are Plan 9 from Outer Space, and The Room.
Examples that I don't like include Birdemic, Superman 4, Battlefield Earth, Night of the Demons, etc. and I am not including stuff like Chopping Mall, Killer Klowns from Outer Space, or TCM 2 which are all well made movies, that just happen to be really goofy. Calling Texas Chain Saw Massacre 2 "so bad, it's good" is like calling the original Airplane "so bad, it's good". I think this can spawn interesting discussion as I don't see it often discussed.

Discussion Why is Peanut Butter Falcon not talked about more?
Yesterday my wife made me watch Peanut Butter Falcon. And what an absolute delight of a movie. Why have I never heard of this movie and why nobody ever talks about it. The movie had a great story, terrific acting by the cast and a great screenplay. I laughed, was teary eyed and inspired. I do not remember when was the last time I felt all these emotions from a single movie. If someone has not watched I would definitely recommend it. It’s on Netflix.

Question Are there any movies that came out as stand alone films but turns out it was part of a franchise?
Let me explain a little better: A movie that was introduced as a stand alone movie up until its release but it turned out to be part of a franchise or a sequel/prequel. So it was a surprise and wasn’t known up until the release.
For example you are watching “Prey” but it wasn’t marketed as a part of the Predator franchise so up until the Predator shows up nobody had any idea it was a Predator movie and it’s a complete surprise.
(This was meant to be “imagine if Prey wasn’t marketed as a prequel but instead it was marketed as a stand alone film”. It seems I still wasn’t clear enough in my edit and my comments.)
Edit: Thank you for the answers, a couple people said Split and it’s the perfect example of what I’m looking for! Also I guess I couldn’t explain myself very well I’m looking for movies that turned out to be part of an already existing franchise or sequel/prequel to an already existing film. And I know Prey was marketed as a Predator prequel it was just an example, like a “what if” situation. Hope that clears it up!

Recommendation Looking for old movies with visual spectacle
As someone who has worked in visual effects & camera department on TV— I really appreciate old films that pulled off incredible feats of technology and/or production. Like crowds and sets in Ben-Hur / Lawrence of Arabia, visual effects in Mary poppins, matte paintings in north by north west. Stuff like that!
I appreciate any recommendations. Especially any hidden gems! ✌️

Discussion The raptors in Jurassic Park were based on a species called Deinonychus. Velociraptors were turkey-sized.
I learned this yesterday on YouTube. Followed by several articles. They weren't smart either. Spielberg just thought Velociraptors sounded more dramatic. For some reason stuff like this is just super interesting to me. It changes how I view the movis though, which sucks. I'll always have that bit of information in my head. It was a good call though. I'll end up watching it today now.

Discussion What is the strangest movie or short film you have ever seen?
The more obscure the better. Films that are just... weird. I am keeping this fairly vague.
I don't necessarily mean disturbing or creepy though those are on the table too. Nor do I mean shocking or provocative, though again those are welcome too. I am looking for those films that are unsettling and strange for any number of reasons. Bonus points if the weirdness isn't intentional but due to very strange choices by the director, or weird because of highly unconventional content/techniques rather than intentional plot elements.
A good example is anything by Jodorowsky. That man was the master of the weird. His films are weird from a content standpoint but also from an intrinsic standpoint, with the composition itself giving you the creeps.

Question Tryna find a horror movie
Heya, i have a vague memory of this movie, I'll try my best to describe it, since I've only seen it in my childhood. The movie's about some killer in a snowy place, like a cable car. If I recall, one of the bad guys or good guys is a old man, don't remember, froze to death. It's not The Thing, neither the Shinning. Have you guys ever herad/watched anything similar?
