That's too much B movies for you, you can't be shocked by disgust anymore.

Ok, fixed. Fuck you

It's so dense

Mr. Plinkett is a lucky man.

I wish Mike and Jay weren't.

I love mother! but this interpretation sounds much more interesting.

See, better to leave the movie up for interpretation. It's better that way.

Yeah i was starting to think that too lol

But I mean death of the author right? I can totally see that interpretation which in a way means it’s true. Does it really matter what the director thinks when you can draw that totally valid interpretation?

Exactly like you said. I loved the movie and thought it was really clever... but I'm a UK citizen who's been raised atheist and knows jack all about the Bible. I thought the movie was about a controlling spouse, he never takes her side, lets random people into the house without even explaining who they are, he cared about himself while she cared about themselves. Reading all the references to the Bible online afterwards was actually quite fun, although all of this is somewhat of a flaw for me. If the movie was supposed to be about something so specific, it probably shouldn't have flown so far over my head lol

Lol literally same here. I saw the Plinkett Ghostbusters 2016 Review and now i legit can't stop watching.

You mean you guys never caught the Plinkett Star Wars Prequel reviews back in the day?

+NeuronalAxon I started watching RLM around the time Rogue One came out, so no plinkett reviews for me. I'm a Star Wars fan and heard about the controversy surrounding their Rogue One review and decided to check it out. After watching the review, I wasn't able understand the big fuss some people were having. Maybe it's just me.

Make sure you watch the Plinkett reviews that started it all...

Welcome to the family! ... the disgusting, horrible family ...

I didn't get it, because I went into this movie without reading anything about it and I'm not religious(even though most of the stories were the really known ones). Zero reason to think someone would make a movie about just retelling bible stories. Like wtf is the point ? I mean I know the director, I liked most of his previous work, but I thought this was going to be a straight psychological thriller based on the beginning.

@@pulkmees I grew up religious and so got some of the religious allegory... buuuuut... it wasn't well done and still didn't really make sense, even looking at it that way. I think the director just did what he wanted and didn't really think any of it through. Like the randomness of her drinking that yellow mixture, and then stopping, and it's never bought up again.

no!

Jay's version of Mike's "there's an episode of Star Trek where....."

That's when I open my nzb indexer and get them all.

For real... Once I saw a matinee ticket costing $15 suddenly the whole experience of attending sank to the level of going to a yodling concert. I'm not talking about going to this Aronofsky movie. I wouldn't go even if somebody gave me a ticket and paid me to watch this, but just in general this is what the downfall of cinema looks like. Quality goes down and the prices go up, a winning equation.

If that’s the only message you took from the movie you should have been paying more attention.

Drog .NDTrax Listen just because a film has some message doesn't mean it's good.

@Drog .NDTrax I'm sorry not paying attention to the amazing and not at all heavy handed message this movie presents makes you a peasant.

@Drog .NDTrax ooh we got a brooklyn cab driver here.

@Drog .NDTrax thats such a pretentious statement, it doesnt matter if a movie has methapors or not what matters will always be the story, lawrance does nothing shes just being a victim in this movie shes not a charecter shes just a victim its no different from any home invasion film but somehow its a masterpiece because of the methapors? So movies that suck can be great if they get inside an editing room and add in some methapors? I tought it was good writing ,good story and narrative but okey i guess methapors is the only thing that matters now, We dont dislike this movie because we dont understand it im pretty sure everyone understood its messege but if your just gonna use methapors for 2 hours without compelling charecters then thats just lazy writing , you can have methapors and charecters that feel like charecters but somehow every film student now just thinks about the occult messege instead of making a good story or narrative , events are not story

It defies any convention of critique AND cinéma, so I'd give that student film an A++

Visitormassacre that’s the dumbest shit I have ever heard . Trees don’t come back when you have destroyed the environment, when you have put so many chemicals into the atmosphere that the earths natural barrier and protection from the sun , you know the thing called the Ozone layer , that little thing that makes it possible for life to flourish on this planet ! Yah , dinosaurs didn’t destroy the Ozone layer , yes they ate trees BUT they didn’t bulldoze down millions of acres of forest , they didn’t destroy the coral reefs that bring the ocean to life or dump Chemiclas into our oceans . You know that other little thing called water that makes it Possible for life to flourish on this planet . Yes there has always been climate change , the continents have changed and shifted and the life on earth adapted . This is very very different when you destroy far more then you can ever replace to keep the natural balance the earth needs to retain life . Yes Dino’s , cows , ancient people , released gassed into the atmosphere but no where near the amount we do now and what we do now is NOT natural . We have destroyed the oceans and much of the life in it , wrecking the natural order of things and the ocean slowly dies . We have ripped holes in the atmosphere so bad the polar ice caps that have been there for thousands and sometimes millions of years are freaking melting at alarming rates AND is leading to lakes and rivers drying up everywhere , crops dying because of that . The hurricanes the storms , the colder winters and hotter summers , it’s all because of the holes we created in the atmosphere. It’s because of the ignorance of people like you this planet is dying. Of course over thousands /millions of years the earth goes through changes , that’s natural . We however have significantly speed up global warming . When you bulldozer rainforest and so much land that the earth can’t possible replenish itself and destroy and pollute the oceans what do you think is going to happen

Jennifer Connely tho... das ass

Yes. It's Called "Wrecked Colon for a Cream"

That scene was in the book, though.

And an underage gangbang was in Stephen King's "It". Doesn't mean you have to film it.

jack bran i object to that statement! Jude Law is equally attractive!!

I would call it “Darren Aronofsky tipping his fedora for 2-3 hours”

@@jimjam7928 When Jennifer Lawrence turned around and they were eating the baby I just fucking lost it and started laughing at the absurdity.

Yeah it's definitely worth watching. I don't know if I liked it or not, but it was entertaining, especially the bat shit second half. I wish it flowed together better though...the obvious Genesis metaphors from the first half were kind of at odds with the second half. If it were a tight 90 minute movie that flowed a little better, I think it'd be a legitimate cult classic. I also laughed at the baby scene...not in a bad way though, I thought it was just blackly comic how quickly it escalated and how absurd the Christian metaphor is when literalized like that. I wish there had been more of that black absurdism in the rest of the movie.

I'm so glad I sa it in theatres, because the impact of this movie is just gigantic during the war scenes, with the house coming down and everything. I felt sick afterwards, but in a good way.

There is nothing independent about this movie. It's a Paramount film with a wide release. Aesthetically and in its script, it's weird in the same way as a lot of independent and arthouse films, but it's not one of them.

youranimesucks requiem for a dream is waaayy overrated. Life of pi was alright, I guess.

@Pale Shadow sorry

@@lucasmossman3820 I never said he did. Whatever comment I responded to is gone now, so the actual context is lost. It has been many years since I've seen requiem for a dream, but I remember my problem with it being a distinct lack of attachment or care for the characters because of how they were written. I felt nothing for the suffering they went through because of it, and without that, there's little value in the film for me. The technical qualities of the film should serve to bolster the experience of the story and characters, but since I cared for neither, it failed to impress me. It boredered on pretentious for me, which I define as focusing on technical features or grander themes without enough care for actually making an engaging experience. I didn't understand why everyone cried at it when I was bored instead. I can't give details because it has been so long ago though.

Oh no you’re not! He was in constantine with keanu reeves and they used his eyes IN the movie!

This is why I don't like when people explain their art. You watched the movie and got something interesting and different out of it. But since the director has flat out said, "this is what the movie means..." It turns your unique interpretation of the movie (and all other interpretations of it) into nothing but an incorrect explanation. IMO, that kinda sucks.

Same here. I really liked Mother, more for how it made me feel that for what it tried to say. I love when movies try to challenge the viewer by making it unconfortable, pushing the envelope to what pictures can convey. Not since early Lynch have I felt so uneasy watching a film. Then I watched some Aronofsky interviews and I said to myself "oh, no...this guy loves to eat his own shit..."

Chimutrufio Gumercindo Ibañez del Campo - Have you ever seen the movie Pi? It's by the same director as Mother, but it's a little reminiscent of early Lynch stuff. Not in a huge way; it just has that famous uncomfortable Lynch-style atmosphere, a bit like Eraserhead but with the weirdness toned way down. It's definitely worth a watch if you haven't seen it already; you seem like the type that would also enjoy it.

Calvin Lee Yeah man, great movie.

I feel like metaphors and symbolism like this were intended despite what he's said about the movie. I really enjoyed it because I felt that it spoke about a lot of different topics and ideas within one story. Their relationship definitely was a large part of it, and I feel the toxicity of it was intended. The biblical references and comparisons to our earth only add to the film.

2018: "all they do is review STAR WARS films....OMG!..... AT-ATs!!!"

It's all the other shit Aranosfky says that lets you know it's going to be clusterfuck

Apocalypse Now, Lost Highway, Melancholia, Old Boy, No Country for Old Men. Lots of movies shift gears. You might be able to make a case that SOME of those were jumbled messes, not all of them.

Kelvin Williams Those are really bad examples, though I'm a pretty huge defender of movies with tonal shifts.

From Dusk till Dawn I would not rank next to it cause the literal appeal of that movie is how much a disconnect the two parts of the movie have. If u were to try to take the movie seriously it would just be bad as mother! but mother! doesnt have the humor factor as much as From Dusk till Dawn.

Earth rejects humanity. Isn't that an accurate depiction of our contemporary experience?

@@DarkAngelEU not in the least. Nature is a constant fight for survival for all life. We're better at it than most organisms due to our ability to accumulate knowledge, structures, culture, technology. Humans are part of nature. Like ants, Termites, Meercats, we alter the environment to increase our effective survival. Unlike those other species, we can sit around and talk about how unfortunate the side effects are when we're too good at it yet careless and we lose the balance and asthetics of the glories of nature. We can eve make pretentious movies that sort of express a misguided form of this sentiment.

@@ravissary79 Are you denying climate change? Cos that's happening pretty much everywhere right now.

@@DarkAngelEU it's virtually impossible to deny such vague claims with any meaningful intelligence. Obviously the climate is changing. The question is how much, are projections accurate, what's the expected outcome, are the proposed causes proportionate to what's popularly believed and what, if that's true, can be done about it. My previous reply in no sense takes any of this lightly. Do you think humans are aliens of spirits and aren't part of nature? DO you think nature is some pagan personified force that makes decisions and is trying to get even with people or is it a biological complex habitat that has trends but no supernatural will? Because the idea that "humanity isn't part of nature, and the earth is trying to wipe us out" is Captain Planet fairy tale nonsense. It isn't even self aware honest nonsense since ALL of the cautionary tales that say how bad people are and how ignorant we are and how we deserve to pay are.... all invented by HUMANS, not "nature" as a personified mind or a goddess, but PEOPLE who want to see other PEOPLE pay. My advice is, if you're an anti-natalist, stop it with the hypocrisy, start with yourself.

@@ravissary79 Lol I'm not anti-natalist, and it's not hypocritical to say that we should have less babies whilst still being alive. You're exposing some of your own ideology here. Let's first make clear that we are modern human beings. We have separated ourselves from nature, we have plenty of means to shelter ourselves from natural forces, even circumvent them, we no longer rely on the seasons or other natural phenomena to survive, so in a way we have become independent from nature to thrive. This is the modern condition of man. However, and this is what can be called the postmodern condition, there are still parts of nature we can't change and because we are thriving independently from nature, we are railing against the "edges" of how much human activity our planet can tolerate before its ecosystem starts to collapse. This is what we are witnessing today. In this way, you could say the movie isn't so much an allegory for Christianity, but it is an allegory for nature vs nurture (culture) and how those two seem to fight for control over the human condition. The movie makes a statement that culture always wins, exactly because for your reasons that all these ((linguistic)) expressions are manmade constructions: as long as there's man, there is God. However, you can't deny that climate change is real, that it is happening, and in a sense you could argue that this is like an autoimmune response of the Earth when it is being tipped out of balance, like a body fighting an infection. Even if Earth isn't trying to consciously get rid of us, it is reacting to our industrial activities, so we should be more conscientious of our behavior and moderate it in a way that doesn't disturb the planet in favor of our survival as a species and in an effort to conserve our precious ecosystems.

Excellent reference to Earthbound right here.
