Korey is the masa of the plantation and Julien is the token lap dog lawn jockey. That dude got some white guilt. He who angers you conquers you. All I heard is a justification for being ignorant.
The funniest thing about this clip is that Korey is HELLA WRONG about the cast. They actually went through the trouble to get black voice actors for everyone of the main crew. Im just as surprised as you are.
I remember watching the trailer and having the same thoughts Korey had, that it’s weird for the sake of being weird. I don’t mind absurdity and a film that makes you feel uneasy, as long as it has a point. I’ll still see it regardless just to form my own opinion.
This is one of those pretentious films where a currently hot Director and rich actors just get together to blow millions of dollars LITERALLY ON BLOW and just some BS they think is so deep for 3 hours (like that episode of South Park where they just smell their own farts) that previous film was just Pinocchio but with a hot actress playing a prostitute with hot nudity.
Been watching Chris on his own channel this past year or so but MAN!, does he get annoyed and angry about stuff A LOT! So much so, that I had to stop watching, it just seemed way too much venom for the subject matter. When I heard about the feud it didn't surprise me. It's a shame, I thought he could be quite insightful sometimes but obviously stews over things in a way that doesn't make much sense to anyone but him. Too much mayonnaise will do that... 🙄
I personally really liked it. Lanthimos likes poking fun at absurd human behavior and goes back to his original form here, like in Dogtooth. It works for some and doesn't for others.
The two most unrealistic things were the cars instantly exploding like they were packed with nitroglycerin and the cat not meowing once in the entire movie.
I agree with Julien H. Really enjoyed seeing the movie and really have been enjoying tryna decipher all the themes and meanings of the movie. Definitely not as strong as Poor Things, but i think it's hard to watch Kinds of Kindness and at least be engaged in what's going on if you were a fan of Yorgos' other works.
I'm a big fan of Yorgos. Dogtooth, Killing of a Sacred Dee r and Alps are excellent. That said, Kinds of Kindness was a miss for me. Much like The Lobster, this felt like a parody of a Lathimos film.
Shit they been at it hard over the last few months. Poor Things, this, and Saltburn? Trifecta of yikesness. - *Nick Diaz* _(Editor, Host of The Chat Attack Podcast)_ ru-vid.com
Just so you know I only took out about 3-5 minutes out of the review. So you didn't miss TOO much, but here is the VOD on Twitch if you want to watch it. www.twitch.tv/videos/2183572014 - *Nick Diaz* _(Editor, Host of The Chat Attack Podcast)_ ru-vid.com
Watched this movie on Saturday and it was by far the weirdest experience I've ever had. I joked with my friends after the movie that the director should be investigated because who thinks of a concept like that, especially the dogs.
I sat in the cinema and a scene where she was cooking .... I'm thinking what the fuck? And a guy behind me goes full on WHAT THE FUCK? HAHA oh and when the end credit started rolling everyone left quietly like it was a funeral.
LMAO this sounds like how a lot of screenings went with the end of Saltburn. That solo dance scene at the end had people kinda' speechless hahah - *Nick Diaz* _(Editor, Host of The Chat Attack Podcast)_ ru-vid.com
Yorgos Lanthimos is one of those directors you would have an acquired taste for. You either like his weird, off-putting movies or you don't. While I do admire his unique voice for filmmaking, I can understand why he's not for everyone.
Ever since The Favourite I've always thought I wouldn't be too much into Yorgos' movies but I think they make for great movie talks. - *Nick Diaz* _(Editor, Host of The Chat Attack Podcast)_ ru-vid.com
Divorce sucks, sorry you went through it. You both were super dope when I met you. Hope you're both happy and prosperous moving forward. Now, go enjoy some guilt free nights at the strip club!
