And if you have to watch some super detailed video to explain the movie, then that is evidence that sort of supports my stance that it misses the mark as a standalone entertainment piece.

I mean, it's a 5-min video, so it's not like you need to watch a 3-hour video essay.

I know you could argue that since it is foreign, that affects things a little. And that is true. But it should still be decipherable in its own right.

I'm surprised you didn't think the movie was decipherable in its own right. The video I linked to only provides additional context, which I thinks gives the viewer a deeper appreciation for the movie, but it by no means is required to decipher what is generally going on.

But regardless, I think this is quite common with foreign horror movies that are rooted in folklore and symbolism.

Anyway, we can agree to disagree, everyone has their own taste. I've just never heard an opinion like yours when it comes to Baskin :lol:

So now you look to be blaming a QB because the schedule hasn't allowed them to all play the equal amount of games??? There's a new thing called "bye week".

I'm not blaming anyone. I'm simply pointing out that all things are not equal when comparing stats at this point in the season. Sorry that that bothers you? :dunno:

Well maybe the two orange schools will. He'll just be padding his stats against Bama :lol:

Our pass defense is hot garbage.

Three QBs tied w/8 INTs and four tied w/7 INTs.

Yes, well Leavitt is also tied with Kamario for most passing TDs and yet Leavitt has played 2 more games than Kamario.

Leavitt also has 1 more passing TD than Trinidad and Gunner, but has played 1 more game than those two.

Leavitt is also fifth in QBR.

See how cherry picking stats works?

You feel that way even after watching this video that explains all the symbolism!? I've honestly never heard someone say they think it's "borderline trash" :lol:

My two biggest issues with AASB (and I'm responding to GoCrazyAuburn, but this is a general response to everyone talking about it):

1. When George translates the ancient text, it still rhymes in English. :lol:
2. SPOILER (see below)

I thought the ending would have been much cooler if they exited the manhole and finally arrived in Hell.

Reddit sucks.

I think r/horror is pretty awesome for finding new movies (recently, I found The Laplace's Demon because of a post), but yeah, I feel like 75% of the posts are, "As anyone seen the hidden gem, The Thing?" "As Above, So Below is a top 5 horror movie!", "What are your unpopular opinions about horror?"

quote:
It is definitely the most polished and probably commercial of McCarthy's movies. Caveat is raw as frick but so fricking creepy and Oddity is just so well done, though a fairly simple movie, just executed super well.

Agree with all of this. I also thought the opening of Oddity was especially awesome.

Watched Hokum last night and then went to r/horror and was really surprised how many people hated this movie or thought it was mid.

So let's hear it Hokum haters, why didn't you like this movie?
