3 Movies Where Many People Completely Missed The Point

Here are three movies where many people completely missed the film’s point. 1. 500 Days Of Summer (2009) 500 Days Of Summer is not a love story, and even with some of the opening lines of the film even calling this fact out, many people entirely missed it. 500 Days Of Summer is actually a critique of the romance genre, particularly films that give us unrealistic expectations about love and relationships. Not only that, Tom (Joseph Gordon Levitt) and his incessant idealization of Summer (Zooey Deschanel) is clearly not something to be admired or considered as romantic. However, m ..read more

How Netflix’s ‘3 Body Problem’ Fixed the Book’s Sexism Issue
Thought Catalog
by Evan Lambert
22h ago
With Netflix adaptation of the trippy Chinese sci-fi novel The Three-Body Problem, David Benioff, D. B. Weiss, and Alexander Woo have taken a dense book about thinly drawn characters solving math problems and turned it into a visually stunning sci-fi horror-mystery. Now, it’s true that the series has left out the breathless passages about Newtonian physics that made the book and its two sequels so engrossing. However, long stretches of characters explaining trigonometry would not look great on TV. We watch TV to unwind – not to become better people.  Still, 3 Body Problem could have benef ..read more

The brief 46-second teaser for Kinds of Kindness opens with a purple challenger flying out of a parking lot (with the arrow on the ground pointing in the other direction), as a narrator begins to speak: “This is it. The moment of truth.” The engine revs in the background alongside the start of “Sweet Dreams” as the Searchlight Pictures logo flashes across the screen. Emma Stone is behind the wheel. The teaser gives us a little profile view of the Poor Things starlet as a smirk crawls across her face. Then we get a flash of Willem Dafoe, ever so briefly before (what appears to be) a corpse gets ..read more

Whether you love or feel indifferent towards Feud: Capote vs. the Swans, you probably have fond memories of the series’ first season, Bette and Joan. Deliciously melodramatic and often quite insightful, it accomplished one major task: letting Old Hollywood icons Bette Davis and Joan Crawford go at it. There’s no schadenfreude quite like the one you get from watching celebrities tear each other apart. After all, their lives are so removed from ours that the drama never even feels real. It’s easy to forget that there are people behind those feuds. That said, here are 5 more Hollywood feuds that ..read more

The early 2000s were truly one of the most iconic and wild ages in pop culture history. After all, the early 2000s gave rise to the dawn of reality TV. It was then when we first started Keeping Up With The Kardashians, voting for our faves on American Idol, and watching Survivor. The iPod and eventually the iPhone hit stores. The original DM slide was asking for an AIM screen name. (The early 2000s also were all about low-rise jeans but we can just forget those. They can just stay in the early 2000s where they belong. Please. Not all of us are Zendaya.) Anyway, here are 17 of 2000s pop culture ..read more

It is the spring of 2007 and the series finale of the hit TV show The Sopranos has just ended. Abruptly. Like, it simply cuts to black mid-scene.

However, one viral TikTok perfectly explains why this ending to the show shouldn’t be considered controversial at all. In fact, it made a lot of sense. “I’ve never understood why the ending of The Sopranos is controversial because if you were ..read more

Celebrate ‘The Outsiders’ Anniversary With the Most Memorable Quotes From the Movie

Francis Ford Coppola’s The Outsiders, based on S.E. Hinton’s acclaimed novel of the same name, remains a cultural juggernaut today. The film and novel explore universal and timeless themes like friendship, loyalty, class conflict, and adolescent development. Though taking place in the ‘60s, the film transcends any time period, reflecting teenagedom — and all the identity confusion and peer dynamics that go along with it—while honing in on those of lower socioeconomic status. It also benefited from emotionally charged scenes at the hands of a then-lesser-known but talented ensemble, including T ..read more
