and so does this seizure-inducing stupidity
for the record, i've never tried LSD. but i imagine that trying it would not be this fucking stupid. and welcome to the episode where i assume panos cosmatos is a di...
and so does everything in this script, really
and in the world, sometimes. imagine this: this movie i don't even like gets me ranting about movies to the point of anger, sadness, palpable emotion because i take it...
and so does this badly lit minute of fighting in which we can't tell what's happening and it goes on forever
it's interesting to edit these episodes a good while after recording them. in this one, it's like i'm ready to give up, never speak of this movie again because it just...
and so do the latter hellraiser movies, and this movie every time it apes them
we're not quite to what is probably the stupidest thing in this movie--and given the amount of stupid in this movie, that's saying something--so let us relish this poo...
and so does the queen of dumb (aka this cigarette lighting scene)
but when every choice you make in production is the wrong one, inevitably, you will find a perfectly horrible thing to put on screen, and people in the audience will t...
and so does this new guy and his golden gun and his tiger
this scene is just another waste of time in a film full of wastes of time. the chemist serves no plot purpose, andy doesn't kill him, the stupid tiger as metaphor for ...
and so do the 'reaction shots' from andy
i've seen more expression in your classic cut-to-the-dog moments in so many movies. nic cage CAN act, he just mostly isn't bothering here, and it's a problem. he's pro...
and so does andy's psychic vision of this radio tower
a quick bonus because we mustn't neglect any of this film's stupid.
and so does this waste of a tiger
it's like that bear in midsommar. it's there and i want it to matter, i want it to do something, i want the plot to go someplace, for any of anything to make any damn ...
and so does taking the time to see this guy's hallucinations when there's a tiger on the loose now
but hey, bugs of some sort, and this scene is obviously vital to the plot. it's good to pause from time to time and forego any momentum. #mandy minute 95
and so does andy playing grown up on his stolen atv
and panos et al for filming it. it's amateur hour at the atv stunt show so let's get some slow mo! #mandy minute 96
and so does yet another animated sequence
but, you gotta have your lulls, right? the revenge plot, once it kicks in, can't just happen with nonstop energy; that would kill us all. so, you include the boring, t...
and so does nap time and plot convenience
you know what your hero needs right in the middle of the climax of the movie? a quick nap, even though we never even saw him stop walking. and, a conversation with an ...
and so does this waste of caltrops
i might offer a cleverness point for andy stopping the van like this after getting the atv stuck in the mud, except 1) there was no reason for there to be mud, 2) it c...
and so does this vulture piece about the film
it ain't just me picking apart some article about the film, it's also an exploration of toxic masculinity and the justification of violence, and if you don't like it y...
and so does this one sentence about mandy
still the vulture piece, but i get stuck on one sentence for a while, and reimagine the film as something more nuanced. #mandy minute 100 (sort of)
and so does the death of johann johannsson
still, this score was one of his last, and panos did not make the best of it. nor did panos make the best of his own grief over the loss of his parents. nor do i, m...
and so do andy's origins
but this childhood story from panos is interesting, at least. #mandy minute 100 (not really)
and so do airquotes' origins
another childhood "story" from panos, and i'm not quite buying it. #mandy, not minute 100
and so does this youtube review (and me for picking on it)
but, awful's gotta awful. #mandy, almost talking about minute 100
and so does this THiNC piece for trying way too hard
I get it. You read Jung into shit. You've been to college, you think you know something. You know, same. But, two hours to figure out what Abraxas is? Was an hour and...
and so does andy's hatred of trees
seriously, we finally get around to minute 100 and he's shoving his stupid "axe" through swiney todd into a tree. what did that tree ever do to andy? nothing. but,...
and so does my spanish
but i try, when the movie randomly puts on a mariachi song and i don't really want to get to the axe throwing stupidity, and really don't want to get into the chainsaw...
and so do the people who left their chainsaws just laying around in this rock quarry
if not for those idiots, this scene wouldn't exist. I blame them. #mandy minute 102
and so do i for not having something else to talk about
this chainsaw fight ain't worth talking about. #mandy minute 103
and so do the safety inspectors at termite chainsaw
at least in 1983. if the company is even a real brand. guy falls onto something (a chainsaw, presumably) we can't see, blood spurts, and all i'm wondering is, shouldn...
and so does andy's mistreatment of the bible
i mean, i'm not religious, but this feels out of place here. andy's just being a dick, now, rather than just a murderer. and, that's just too much. #mandy minute 105
and so does this lumbering lumberjack
seriously, he climbs down a ladder, he walks away from us, he walks toward us, he walks, he walks some more, and it's all red because reasons. shoulda made it all bl...
and so does susan's fight or flight response
if she had just stayed on the floor by the chair, i don't think andy would have even seen her in this lighting. i didn't. #mandy minute 107
and so does susan dying between scenes like an afterthought
this minute is just a bunch of buildup to nothing... that could be an alternate title for the film: A Bunch of Buildup to Nothing: The Andy and Airquotes Story. #m...
