90% on Rotten Tomatoes what!? How come I've never heard of this film.
I know, only Nicholas Cage movie I heard about recently was Jiu Jitsu & I only remember it because it was so bad(just watch the trailer, you will laugh more than many comedy shows entire episodes just by hearing one dialogue of cage at the end of the trailer).

So I just finished watching the Snyder cut of Justice League. Now, I haven't watched the original Joss Whedon version, so I watched a video on youtube that did a comparison of the films and I wonder WTF was Warner Bros thinking. The Snyder cut has so many memorable scenes that Joss Whedon just replaced with cheesy shots and injecting forced humour.

Edit: This is the video I watched for reference (Spoilers warning)


This comment on the video really made me lol:

Barry runs back so fast that he able to change the director to Snyder just to safe back the production. Thank u Barry.

Completely agree. I had watched Joss Whedon version. It had a flavour of cringe (like they serve in Bollywood movies and Indian Soaps). That version rather spoiled Snyder cut's version too, because those who had watched it earlier, felt a bit less difference. But that difference had that flavor of thought bending. That movie could have been better if released earlier. There was a lot more detail and expression in Snyder Cut, which previous version lacked. That version was plain in comparison to Snyder Cut.


It is a perfect example of how, a story can be told in different way. The previous one had 40% tomato ratings, Snyder cut had 73%.

I do need to watch this Snyder cut. In the Josh Weadon version I almost slept through the movie.
Looks like Snyder have redeemed it!

I watched full 4 hours in one sitting. You won't know how the time flies when watching it.

The thing I think is that Joss Whedon was trying a lot to make the movie like Avengers but failed because that tone does not match the DC characters.

Yeah, I watched it and I have mixed opinions of it. The main issue is that most of the acting is really stiff (especially the protagonists). I liked Robert Pattinson's acting the best among all of them. The story moves too fast with a lot of unexplained stuff and generally feels sloppy or hastily written. The only thing well written is Nolan's trademark brain**** concept. The movie itself is not bad but there's a lot of details and side characters you just don't care about.

How Tenet happened (at least that is what I think)

So this friend of Nolan was repenting in-front of Nolan that none of the scientific journals are printing his theory on inverted time.
So this guy was best friend of Nolan, so he consoled him saying, let me see what I can do.

Then Nolan called his crew and told them about a new script and that is how Tenet was developed.

Even after this, we only saw half of what was in actual script (thesis paper). I mean its a thesis paper not a script so understandable on the gaps.

I know why the gaps happened too.

It must have happened this way,

Nolan's friend : so with inverted time, this is a problem statement.
To resolve we have to go through step 1 to 10.
Nolan: Ok, that's pretty easy, I believe audience won't need step 1 to 9, keep that for printing your thesis someday. I'll only show problem statement and step 10. Should be enough!

Tenet is nolan's worst movie, one contributing factor could be Nolan's primary video editor was working on 1917. 1917 feels more like a nolan movie than tenet.

Any suggestion on Best Horror movies please?
Just best 3 movies (according to your personal opinion) will do.
I've watched many, however I'm not sure if I yet watched the best movie.
Thanks
