"And in Chinese media when they're discussing the big fat lesbo daughter in Everything Everywhere All At Once they talk about how she has a 'Westernised Lifestyle' instead of saying she's lesbian or LGBT."
"I'm a massive movie nerd and I just see the light going out in everyone's eyes if I bring up literally anything that isn't Marvel. I work with people who are clueless about fucking Everything Everywhere All At Once, even and Oppenheimer is straight up arthouse cinema to them."
"how is there unanimous praise for this dogshit movie. everyone seems so caught up in the story of the actors and their careers that they're willing to forget that half the movie was obnoxious unfunny hotdog finger jokes and le epic everything bagel reddit bullshit. omg they jump onto the freaking bu"
"Gave up at the half-way point. Honestly felt like I was inside tik tok. I don't know if I've ever felt so out of step with the critical reception to a movie - have critics been so waterboarded by the Marvel onslaught that EEAAO now seems like a good film by comparison?"
"I've seen the same 3 opinions over and over. The only thing worse than being a normie is being a pretentious ass who regurgitates opinions they hear from other people so they can feel superior to others."
"It's like they anticipate someone saying, 'Tar is the perfect movie to uphold the values of Western Civilization, and despite her advanced age Cate Blanchett really gives it a streak of intellectualism you could never get from the cast of EEAAO, a movie that panders to housewives and immigrants. Als"
"The Whale? Sucks
The Menu? Sucks
All Quiet on the Western Front? Sucks
EEAAO? SUCKS
I guess I'm not as smart as you guys cuz I thought most of these were good"
"It feels like hyper netflix. kind of subdued. Everything exists in this state of cool, and events feel largely inconsequential. It feels like a new kind of naturalism. I got this vibe in movies like Nope, Everything Everywhere, and Bones and All."
"You can't convince me otherwise. They made like 4 references to it tonight alone. "He turned his fingers into hot dogs. Funniest shit I've ever seen.""
"I'm a quarter Japanese and my half Chinese girlfriend is ambivalent about this movie even though it seems to perfectly encapsulate the generational dynamics of both of the Asian sides of our family. Does this movie resonate with first gen Asians at all or is it just the white in me imagining what we"
"Reddit humor and therapy culture: the movie. The director's crazy hot take: nothing matters :) The family drama: lesbianism is my defining characteristic and asian tiger moms. An infinite amount of universes worth of potential humor/absurdity: dildo buttplug and wiener fingers. And the director's co"
"Just saw the movie, it fucking sucks. Marvel tier dialogue about how "nothing matters" that made me physically cringe. I was so checked out for like the last 40 minutes. I can't believe there are people (that I respect) calling this the best movie of the decade so far. It's literally soy matrix."
"First all those massive threads saying the (extremely terrible) Everything Everywhere All At Once was the best thing ever, now the exact same thing for this show Beef"
""she is everything" "I want all of the things" "Everything everywhere all at once" Why were millennials so enamored with the universal and all encompassing."
"A lot of new movies these days have this weird air about them, as if they're trying to be apologetic for being a movie. Performative self-awareness through fourth-wall breaks, references to real-world pop culture and memes, obnoxiously flashy editing and forced epic bacon Rick and Morty type humor.."
"asian america's biggest fantasy is their parents apologizing to them, and EEAAO is proof of that. therapy culture gone awry, now everyone is blabbering on about their bullshit "generational trauma.""
"a normie shouldn't have the frame of reference to make fun of me for being 'pretentious' and having more than a passing interest in the media I consume they shouldn't care, they should toil away on farms while I collect manuscripts from far off lands and have numerous children to feed and burp while"
"Zoomers: Openly pro-selling out. Their perception of work, family, relationships, and society is incredibly pessimistic. 'Act your wage,' quiet quitting, Doomer memes, climate despair, heavily romanticizing/aestheticizing the past, situationships, rising singlehood, declining car culture, Black Mirr"
"Saw it because it's getting incredible reviews and people saying it's the best movie they've ever seen. I see it and I'm just astounded about that sentiment"
