Weapons (Zach Cregger, August 8, 2025) Movie • Page 18

Hmm not that I recall. I did live in a house with a toilet in an unfinished basement but it was enclosed. No sink though.

 

maybe it’s when you were house hunting and showing us some of the houses you were looking at. Idk, I remember a whole conversation about it. Or maybe it wasn’t you!

 

Just try to time your liquid intake until the second half of the movie problem solved!

 

While I feel this movie earns my suspension of disbelief and enough good faith that I feel comfortable filling in the many minor logical gaps discussed in this thread (as well as not allowing the plot to be driven by things that would not reasonably occur in the world it presents to us), it always rubs me the wrong way to see people bring that stuff up and get dismissed as Cinema Sins or whatever. If you want to overlook or explain away those things because you liked the movie then fine, but it doesn’t mean that they aren’t there, or that the whole “something fake in this movie happened so you aren’t allowed to expect realism” bit applies. It’s not like Derry, which King repeats ad nauseum is an explicity rotten and irregular town

Like a single fantastical element in this story doesn’t negate the absurdity of a 9 year old or whatever walking into a grocery store alone to buy up enough soup to kill a horse in a town where 17 children recently went missing en masse and not catching an eyebrow, regardless of how dumb the cops are. Let alone multiple times? For weeks? Haha. Like I don’t personally give a shit about seeing that type of thing explained but if someone has an axe to grind over it then that’s valid

edit: this is not all to say there have not been some completely baffling complaints in here about the plot that were very clearly explained if you were simply watching the movie

 

You sound like a guy that’s killed a lot of horses

 

Shout out to the animal rights activists whose decades of tireless work finally led to a nationwide ban on killing horses with soup

 

Folks what I do with my spare time is between me and the equestrian community

 

The Pittsburgh toilet is a very real thing

 

Kevin in home alone bought fabric softener, a thing I don’t ever buy, so I can believe a kid bought an insane amount of soup for a month.

 

OK, a friend texted to say she adored this so I might have to move up my viewing date.

And congrats to Cregger for slaying Freakier Friday with an original R-rated movie. We love to see it.

 

Gladys clearly felt comfortable in public so I assumed she was the one buying the household items actually

 

High likelihood the hot dogs thing was a reference to this

 

Doesn't something you're eating while watching the movie not work its way through your digestive system until much much later? Feel like something doesn't add up here.

 

Feel like there is an unmade Nathan For You episode where he figures out how to make movie theater seats with toilets

 

Real question: do you go before the movie? Like, before you leave the house or when you get there, or whatever.

 

Just always go to the bathroom before the movie starts. If you do that but still find yourself not being able to hold it for another ~2hrs, go see a doctor

 

Not that’s it’s anyone’s BUSINESS but yes I pee A LOT and I HAVE seen a doctor and they told me I’M OVER CAFFEINATED

 

Is the caffeine here in the room with us right now?

 

I'm just concerned for all of you moviegoers who are missing out on not being able to watch a two hour film without having to pee. I want to crack this puzzle, for all of you.

 

Again. I’m fine. Don’t worry about me.

 

But also mind your own business penpal
