and so does this pilot episode
I'm about to spend way too much time telling you what's wrong with this movie.
and so does having too many logos
and none of them familiar

aerial shot of trees ain't nothing new
and so does this boring music
those drums should be ramping up the music not distracting from it
and so does deforestation
Not buying Nicolas Cage as a lumberjack in #Mandy, and we get our first tinted scene already.
and so do silhouettes
you know what happens when you don't tell us anything about the characters AND we cannot see them because your lighting sucks? Nothing. #mandy minute 5
and so do chapter titles

seriously, when there is no distinction between reality and dreams, and anything surreal seems entirely accidental, and your characters don't even have names yet... ...

#mandy minute 15, in which our unnamed heroine starts to tell her unnamed roommate a story, boringly
and so does this stupid starling story (part 2)
of course this story was going to be violent; you could tell by the lack of excitement in her voice. #mandy minute 16
and so does this stupid starling story (part 3)
and it takes the cheap way out, but it's not like we're seeing it in flashback anyway, so who cares? and, there's no way she hasn't told andy this story before; they d...
and so does this fake fantasy novel's flowery prose
filmmakers, don't include text on screen that we would be better off not reading. or characters we would be better off not knowing. or plots we would be better off not...
and so do amorphous blobs of smoky redness
