it was really good

Finally watched it, thought it was 6/10 ok.

Wish the main 4 were portrayed as more disgusting and vicious. The pizzeria was dilapidated but they came off as more child-friendly even in their characterization. Just an odd choice.
I felt they were trying to speed run games 1-4 and the plot was too scattered because of that. I watched the movie with a friend who has never played them before and he was utterly lost by the third act villain. I probably would have done something based on a single game. Maybe the plot of the first or third since those a pretty accessible.
Loved all the Easter eggs and mini references, I had a strong vibe that the people working on it were actually fans of the property.
Acting was pretty bad. Kid playing Golden Freddy kid the best job. When your best actor is a child actor something has gone terribly wrong.

Overall I can see why critics are hating it, there is no attempt to appeal to non-fans. That being said it's also just meh. I liked it and would watch a sequel, but I don't think I'd rewatch this.

I went expecting it to be absolute garbage and it suprisingly wasnt terrible. I never played FNAF games though.
It wouldn't be my first choice, but it was good. I liked that in the end the children weren't evil.

Was it REALLY so hard to make Mike and Vanessa kiss? They obviously like each other but don't do anything.

>>32707
I got big scrapped love interest vibes from her too. Maybe the kids they test screened it for weren't a fan?
I appreciate that they focus on a romantic subplot, but without the ending of the film she seemed kind of awkward. Like they added her to tie to the newest game but didn't have a clear vision for the character if that makes sense.

>>32707
my little pet theory is that because they changed the Afton family backstory to Vanessa, some retarded fans might get confused and think it was incestuous

I really like this.

I’m more sympathetic to hsts tims so I don’t hate him or anything, but he is a hypocrite. idc how much plastic surgery you’ve had, ywnbaw. still, I appreciate he offers a more moderate viewpoint to all this troon madness

>>33145
indifferent. she lives near me in austin texas i wonder if i could play pranks on her like… throw sex toys on her roof.. throw lube and porn and god knows what on her roof. also maybe inflatable sex dolls filled with helium and get them tangled up in her trees. she he whatever i want to fuck with her lol, so close so easy. i have so many ideas

>>33209
anybody in austin tx want to help me fuck with blair white!

>>33209
He would probably say it was TRAs fucking with him.

he is only useful in that he benefits/promotes the TERF cause

>>33193
Can I get a little bit of a word on all of these?

>>33195
If you tell me what you like and what you look for in literature, I can personalize the reading advice. (also your age, or a general idea)

>>33197
More novels about war, love and anything related to japanese mythology

>>33198
>War
Kenzaburo Oe (1994 Nobel Prize) write a lot of good short fiction about war.
Heart of Darkness, by J. Conrad inspired Apocalypse Now.
>Love
Henry James, Daisy Miller. Imagine James as an American Austen in the early 20th century. Very good psychological portraits of American and European youth clashing.
Edith Warthon, The Letters. This should be mandatory CC reading. Can't really talk about it without spoiling.
Tolstoi, The Devil: a man with morals is trying to not cheat on his wife
Goethe, The Sorrow of young Werther: a classic which introduced desperate, romantic love. Beware: it's old.
>japanese mythology
Can't help you there. Maybe pic related.

>>33199
Thankyuu, Nonya! I will check them out after In Stahlgewitter

ive always been a pretty big sonic fan, i played the mega collection a lot when i was younger

>I can see the appeal, sonic is kind of hot ngl.
yeah, sonic himself is pretty hot but my personal favorite is tails, hes cute

>>31865
Sonic is a fun franchise, I can see why people like it a lot. I also played one of the advance games and chronicles, but it was so long ago my memory is bad. Tails is very cute I agree, but unfortunately when I think about Tails now my mind immediately jumps to the tails gets trolled comics.

>>31863
It does suck. I even tried to defend it by saying it was for kids, but then again, Sonic X was for kids and even though that wasn't too good either it was miles better than Sonic Prime.
> also im attracted to the characters
Sonic has that effect on people. You can not resist.
>>31868
>tails gets trolled
Really? I always think of Bench Tails.

Sonicsisters… WE ARE SO BACK.

>>31863
Sonic Prime is…okay. It's on par with Sonic X season 1 as just an okay show. It has nice elements to it like the plot carrying across dimensions and different incarnations of the same character interacting and the action is nice. But there's not much other substance to it. Aside from the action scenes that are admittedly nice, you could find all the other positive elements in other sonic shows and in greater quality.

I CAN'T HELP FEELING WE COULD'VE HAD IT ALLLLLLLLLLLLL

Aubrey Plaza playing a hot lesbian doctor was something I didn’t know I needed in my life 0_____0’

>>32991
Out of ones that came out in 2023? Or ones that we saw in 2023?

>>32993
That came out in 2023.

Usually I watch anime in like a 1 or 2 year lag. But this year I got into Jujutsu Kaisen by chance and liked it a lot

I hardly watch newly released anime but Skip and Loafer and Frieren are some that I really like and enjoyed so far.

no love for Spy x Family?

anyone go to metal concerts? how do you find people to go with? there are a few bands i like doing shows in my area by i dont want to go alone.

>>32000
Lol i was just listening two of her albums today! That was pretty cool and different!

>>32080
i just dmed a girl on instagram who takes pictures at metal/post hardcore shows nearby and befriended her. within two days of talking she sent me a flyer to a nearby show and introduced me to the scene.

with that being said be wary of moids who invite you to shows, some of them expect "something in return" /:

I really like metal, but everytime I meet a moid who likes it too is one of two. They either like numetal/metallica in which I don't care, you like whatever you do, but act like they are the biggest metalhead in the universe, or they're NSBM listeners. I don't even need to comment on that. I wish I met more girls that were into metal from where I am. Sadge.

I find it funny that metal fans used to complain about pop music and even some rock because it was formulatic and repetitive, but modern metal has become exactly the same, just a bunch of bands trying to sound as fast/agressive/loud as possible ignoring basic music concepts.
Even the heavier and more extreme genres used to have a great sense of rythim, harmony and melody, but that seems mostly gone.

Of course, not every modern metal band is like this, I'm just talking about the general trends.

>>32725
Have you seen Batman (1966)? That one is goofy and fun and better than the Nolan output. The 1989 film also does a good job of blending the campy elements with a Gothic atmosphere and has a good Jack Nicholson performance.

I similarly find the Nolanverse overrated because I find them too self-serious particularly Dark Knight. Heath Ledger is doing a good job, but the character he's playing might as well not be Joker. Same with Bane and Scarecrow, Nolan was so concerned with realism he striped the appealing parts of their comic book counterparts away.

>>32355
For me it's most Ghibli films. I only liked a few films of theirs. The rest rely too much on pretty visuals, which are nice but can't hold up a film alone for me. Pom Poko is one of their best yet people almost never talk about it.

>>32742
Rewatching some of Ghibli's films made me realize how paper thin the plots are. Even the majority of the scenes just serve as eye candy. Without really move the plot forward or having any impact on the overall story. They're basically short films with a ton of padding for a feature length runtime. Also you notice how the characters tend to blend together. They have bland and near identical personalities to each other. Like they copy and pasted the character's personality, motivations and backstory for each film.

The lighthouse is what would happen if you asked someone who'd never seen an arthouse film to make an arthouse film.

Whit Stillman movies. I saw Metropolitan and Last Days at Disco. They were both just 3/5 stars to me, fine to pass the time but forgettable. But for a lot of people these are part of their favorite movies ever, which I just don't understand.
