Bay 13 Movie Club - Week 2: Blade Runner 2049

[Jazny]

It's like a book club, except it is more inclusive because it is also for illiterate bay people. Every week we nominate films and based on the nominantions we conduct a poll to see which film will be the film of the week, the Bay has 7 days to watch it, then come back and give their thoughts on it at any time!

I will start the first week, it will be Force Majeure by Ruben Ostlund who directed the incredible Triangle of Sadness which I highly recommend.

Feel free to nominate the film for week 2 at any time and I will put a poll up of all the nominations and then starting next Sunday night we will have another week watch whichever movie won the poll. Please only nominate sensible films that are proper films!!!!

Please no spoilers in this thread without putting the spoiler tag thingy on it! Like this:

Spoiler: EXAMPLE SPOILER

Zackah is a horrible person

I have an incredibly good feeling about this thread that at will be highly successful and everyone will enjoy it and we will learn quite a lot and become better and more cultured people and it will generate loads of traffic for bigfootball and Chief will reward me with a bunch of profile badges and it will just be incredible magical and great!

I'll watch it when it comes out on video. Seems like a cross between Titanic and The Beach.

An equally crude and simple fantasy adventure that is only interested in a few atrocities and the blatantly sexist exhibited physical charms of the leading actresses," was the verdict of the encyclopedia of international film . [2]

Is what you're essentially saying in layman's terms is there are no noodz or lolz and it's as boring as hell?

Good flick that one, R.I.P Rowdy Roddy Piper.

 

[Lethality]

Blade Runner 2049 was a really good

Spoiler

subversion of the chosen one movie trope. I liked the lesson of the movie that you are not important but you can do important things

Ever since I've tried making myself into a cyborg, and I've been into minimalism as well.

Denis Villeneuve shows that you can still be faithful to the source material and expand on it and make interesting scifi.

It's only been 6 years but it was an instant classic which has changed the way cyberpunk is presented.

This is jazny's type of movie more like it.

 

[Jazny]

Okay so far the nominations are:

First Blood - Nominated by Reppie
They Live - Also nominated by Reppie
Blade Runner 2049 - Nominated by Lethality
Suspiria (1977)

I will nominate the movie my avatar came from, the incredible Dario Argento Italian GOAT horror film - Suspiria (1977). I am ignoring the fake nominations by Zackah and others. Im not sure if Aristotle Pickett was actually nominating any of the films he linked.

Literally watched it again a few days ago, one of the best movies of the last decade. Has me hyped for Dune 2 later this year.
