    Correct. Most the time I’ve eaten cooked or smoked fish it’s not good. Plus sushi incorporates so many other things, and flavors.

    I’m grilling a red snapper that I caught as I’m reading these hot seafood takes.

    Seafood is fucking delicious

    Fish, shrimp, crab, lobster, oysters. Fried, blackened, raw, grilled. Sushi, gumbo, creole, give me all of it

    Sorry but if you don’t fuck with fish for reasons aside from ethics it’s on sight

    Watched this Saturday night. Annoyingly a Floridian mate of ours turned up and fucking talked throughout the entirety. Every five seconds ‘that’s CGI’, ‘could’ve made the bodies look real’, ‘remember that picture it’s important’, ‘that’s stupid’, ‘that wouldn’t happen’.

    Like I was kinda drunk watching it but only now am I thinking back about just how bad she was to watch a film with.

    Regarding the film - whether it was due to the situation I was in while watching it or not idk, but I just didn’t gel with this in the same way I did Hereditary. The acting felt kinda bad in parts, particularly the boyfriend of the protagonist. I’m gonna watch it again with my gf I think. But yeah, not bowled over like I was hoping to be.

    Janelle Monae’s performance was amazing and her nods to Midsommar and Us really touched me

    Was finally able to watch this. Movie was absolutely phenomenal. Thoroughly captivating the entire time. The movie felt long but only because the tension was kept up for SO LONG. Most movies only play around with tension like that in short bursts and then have a release - Ari Aster doesn't play. I really need to see the director's cut ASAP.

    Their relationship and the way he treated her was more horrifying than any of the violent stuff that came after. It honestly felt a little bit like a relief when atrocious violent shit started going down because it was a break from how awful the main guy treated her and other people. I really feel like the decision to build the story around that relationship elevated this to the next level.

    For people who were able to see the director's cut, was there any more material about the disfigured oracle person...?
     
  24. The director's cut fleshed out Christian's relationships with Dani and Josh, but to answer your question, it doesn't address the disfigured character further.

    The inbred? I thought they addressed at some point as him being closer to God/nature or something so they always have an inbred. Sorry if referring to something else
