#movies that made me uncomfortable

[spoopy-nevermore-dump]

Hey pssst hey. Have you ever considered: Montada?

I hate it, and it nearly killed my hyperfixation

But I understand my opinion on this may affect others, and many may be hurting from this episode soooooooooo

Art requests open

#nevermore webtoon #i debated on posting this response when you sent it because 1) spoilers but 2) i swear i neededa fucking warning for this shit #“jessie and james vibes” my ass #monty has been giving off major r@pist vibes since his introduction #and while this makes sense as a good angsty plot point for ada. i dint think it should be endgame for a plethora of reasons #the past month ive known about this ive been waiting for the community divide that will probably occur ocer this #and i dont want people to fight #nevermore has been there for me for well over a year. helping me through the days since 11th grade. when i was 16. and im graduated now. 18 #the community has been an absolute blast. even if im not as active on maincord anymore. with life getting busy and just too much to backrea #and im scared of losing that #but hey i got some art coming up in the next few days and I'm about to go to a wedding and you bet your ass im bringing my sketchbook #pls give me requests ive been in idea art block #and i dont think you guys want me making a bunch or horror movie aus cause that may end up in me drawing slight gore eventually #sorry to the other patrons for lying how i felt about this ship #i did truly feel neutral when i first saw it but now it just leaves a bad taste in my mouth #it makes me feel sick #a good part of my feelings towards it is due to how it got talked about in the Patreon streams and how uncomfortable it made me and others

What I learned from the new Indiana Jones movie:

You’re never too old to punch nazis

#it was awesome #Harrison ford is over eighty and still punching nazis #the main nazi guy towards the end was so devastated it made me laugh so hard #madds mikkelsen #is a good actor #I don’t want to say he was really good at being a nazi but yeah he was a good actor #one quote I absolutely love was when the main girl dropped a Nazi out of a plane and was like sorry but you’re a Nazi 🤷 #freaking loved it #I think we need more anti Nazi movies and shows in current day #because watching my right wing parents be uncomfortable in my joy of punching nazis was also a bonus #I think it helps address the antisemitism rising up again and we need to beat it back with a stick #if people see their heroes beating up nazis they won’t want to become a Nazi and that’s great

cruel intentions is a movie that could not be made today, neither could it get a remake unless they rewrote the part where the protagonist is a literal rapist 😶

#i like that movie but that made me very uncomfortable watching #i think that works better in dangerous liasons bc he's meant to be a villain #but in cruel intetions he comes off as the hero in the end?

Hot take but Corey Dorris listing Will Ferrell in Elf as the holiday thing that freaks him out in his Grunch cast interview is so valid actually. It may be the two of us against the whole entire world, Mr. Dorris, but I got your back.

#for me I think it's actually the relationship with Zoey Deschanel's character that weirds me out #but for whatever reason that movie has always made me a little uncomfortable and I felt so seen when Corey said that #corey dorris #hot take controversial post #anyways if you have the cash get the digital download with the bonus features they are so fun #how the grunch cribbed christmas #htgcc

i keep talking about it on xitter but seeing end of eva in theaters was genuinely amazing, like the sound design and the quality...the way that the movie ends and everyone is just There...i used to just like the movie and thought it was a bit overrated, but now i think it's one of my favorite films ever

#im SO glad i got to go #you can really feel how angry it is #like even though. That scene has been memed to death it still felt very uncomfortable to sit through #and the movie is very loud the first half right #but you dont notice how loud it's been until you see eva 02's corpse and the movie just goes completely silent #i already want to go see it again #oh and the subtitles made things make a ton more sense #yeah but wow.........i keep thinking abt it #i was like how could seeing it in theaters change my thoughts? but everyone talking about it convinced me #and they were right

When Renfield fell back on his bed in his new apartment smiling to himself with his sharp little teeth, he looked so darn cute and adorable I just wanted to kiss him.

#Renfield #Chit-chat #Anyway #Great movie. Super fun. Made me appropriately uncomfortable with the verbal abuse and manipulate language. Also gave me big warm gay feelin #10/10 would reccomend #Also gave me the desire to kiss

tragic moment where i forgot to RB the ace attorney "almost christmas" meme yesterday and i am devastated but anyway

HAPPY HOLIDAYS FOLKS. LET THERE BE EVEN MORE KAEYA NEXT YEAR. I AM CALLING IT. MORE LORE. IF HYV WONT DO IT, I WILL (and so will the rest of the kaeya lore squad in various social medias lmao)

#yeeeaaah my family just kinda slept coz we really never cared for christmas #which led me to forgetting to rb the meme #in addition my friend who visited made me watch the movie colossal and it was horrible #solid 1/10 (the 1 is for anne hathaway coz i am not immune to h e r) #and the guillermo del torro pinocchio WHICH WAS UNCOMFORTABLE TO WATCH WOAH DID I MISS THE WARNING AT THE START? #knowing a bit of italian made the experience funnier but also more horrifying #a solid 3/10 (2 for the amazing animation and 1 for the amazing voices. story flow needs a ton of tweaking...) #kaeyachi randoms #but no srsly i didnt see the articles about the gdt pinocchio so imagine the absolute smack to the face at the first hint of ww2 imagery #and again me knowing some italian did boost the experience #wow i am once again talking a lot thru tags

Okay, but The Marvels was PHENOMENAL.

Fuck all those people who judged it before it even came out.

#the marvels #captain marvel #ms marvel #Photon #THE CUT SCENE HAD ME SCREAMING OMG #DONT GET ME STARTED ON THE CATS #easily top five favourite marvel movie #it also made me realize that this movie probably made a lot of men uncomfortable #theyre so used to being catered to and represented in the superhero movie genre #and they had to watch a whole movie with fem leads and a fem villian what champs #then heres women who've only had two female lead movies before this one #and what #like 4 female villains??? #OUT OF 30+ MOVIES #all those haters can suck they mama cause this movie was great go empathize with some women for once XD

just saw a post that was like “what’s everyone’s comfort media” except i misread it as “discomfort media”, so now I’ve got a question for everybody: what’s your discomfort media? as in, media that you see and instantly feel the exact opposite of comforted by?

#for me it's that one country bears movie from like the 90s #don't quote me on that idk when it was made #i have a vague memory of it #and for some reason it scares me #just a little #I just do not like it and I don’t know why #and in keeping with this blogs theme I’d dare to say dark Phoenix #still refuse to watch that movie and still am incredibly uncomfortable when I think about how some characters got treated #comfort media #discomfort media #I guess that’s a tag now xD

[aroace-poly-show]

ahahahahahahhahaahhahahaha help

#marlo’s stuff #watching a movie in class #guhhhhhh a moment has made me feel incredibly uncomfortable and i am having Bad Thoughts :) #fuck my stupid baka life

So I recently went on the Indiana Jones wiki to learn more about Satipo since I'm drafting a fic and first off...I must say I love the picture that they use for his page: 

But then I scrolled down to the Behind-the-Scenes section and I’m just like wtf?! 

I’m glad he was a trooper though and didn’t just remain in British theatre. I would not like to live in a world where he didn’t grace American television and film. (Although I love his British work too.) 

Still, I don’t blame him for being scared. I would not be down for that either. I’m not a huge fan of spiders. The only spider I like is Spiderman. (Okay, I’ll see my way out.) 

#i know this is probably common knowledge #but this is my first time hearing this #i just learned this #and i can't #i remember that scene in the movie #and it totally made me uncomfortable then #but learning this #made it worse in my opinion #but maybe i'm being too sensitive #i don't know #satipo #raiders of the lost ark #alfred molina

When you remember something you wish stayed forgotten and go "gross"

#man why did my teacher make us watch that movie as an assignment in high school #that shit was uncomfortable and made me wanna leave the room #highkey now i should've just said something back then but i didnt

[marshmellowtea]

the more i read about cozy horror the more i understand why people fucking hate the idea of this being considered a “genre”

#like i’m not opposed to the idea of blending a softer vibes with genuine scares #that juxtaposition is really interesting to me and i’d like to incorporate it into my own writing more #but from what i can tell that’s not what defenders of this genre want #they either A) don’t want horror at all (or clearly prefer horror made for children) #(which is fine but that’s already a genre you don’t need to reclassify that shit thank you) #or B) are completely misunderstanding the actual horror of certain movies in order to retroactively fit them into their idea of this genre #which is how we get these horrid ‘feminist’ takes about midsommer or the vvitch #also. just gonna say it. branding cozy horror as ‘horror made for women’ is insidious as fuck #plenty of women enjoy ‘normal’ or more extreme types of horror #and don’t need a ‘softer’ version of the genre #and insinuating otherwise is just straight up misogyny lmao #anyway yeah the criticism is less about the genre itself and more about how this is a canary in the coal mine for the further sanitation of #media especially horror media which is a genre traditionally built on shock value and making you uncomfortable #and the more i read about it the less i want anything to do with the term thanks #marshy speaks

[theraphos]

okay I did it! I fucking did it! I have finally seen EVERY PUPPET MASTER MOVIE ever made and also no one should ever do that actually but I'm not on this hell site to make good decisions okay

#puppet master #i have the weirdest god damn relationship with these movies they have just kinda haunted me since scifi channel in the 90s #so this was An Adventure #still kind of annoyed they wasted 'puppet master: the littlest reich' on a movie NOT about wrecking nazis again #because that is like objectively the funniest b-movie title i've ever heard #oh well at least that timeline will never be revisited ever #and i actually enjoyed blade: the iron cross despite the trainwreck budget #because a) it wasn't the littlest reich and b) it knew exactly the kind of stupid it wanted to be and was completely unapologetic about it #which is kinda my feels on the PM axis movies as a whole except for the bit part human japanese villains #who are excessively uncomfortable to watch and make zero sense for so many reasons #everyone talks about the kamikaze puppet being bad and yes he is but he was also made in a nazi lab and exists for like 5 minutes #so at least his badness like blends in with the rest of the dumb movie #those human chars tho wtf was anyone thinking #oh well though #go to sleep ed

#lmaoooo at ppl responding to criticisms of the barbie movie with “yeah but we don’t want to think critically it’s not fun :(” #just. god. #the amount of brain damage the phrase let people enjoy things has led to is rlly shocking #yeah we r being ignorant but in our defense it’s easier to not care so actually ur the problem #like….? #if. you. don’t. care. just. Say That. #you don’t want to examine your own biases/experiences and how they affect your opinions #and people who do make you uncomfortable #which somehow translates to people who actually want to think critically are a problem?? #not articulating myself at ALL rn but omfg #i enjoyed the barbie movie like it was decent #but the feminism was very surface level and very white centric #like obviously made with a corporation #so i’m actually getting really sick of seeing so many thin gender conforming cis women act like it’s fucking feminist theory #exact same demographic who act like hyperfeminity in women is punished more than masculinity #you feel me? #like ohmygod the movie was enjoyable it was funny! #but nothing abt it was revolutionary. #anyways rant over i think #which btw just doing this in tags bc this is literally only meant to be perceived my beloved mutuals and chido followers #i don’t need a random person arguing with me abt this so #personalish #edit: also just to add #why are people also being like oh so just bc it has to be a female director it has to be groundbreaking feminism? #valid point but wrong fucking movie bro #that’s a critique of criticism of movies by and abt women that are NOT billed as feminist #textbook whataboutism #this shit just makes my hateritis flare up #ughhhh

Okay, so now people are going from "The jedi never did anything wrong ever and are perfect and flawless and made zero mistakes and literally everything was Palpatine's fault even when there were moments he was clearly speed-chess-ing to account for the unexpected," a kinda dumb but not unreasonable take, to "Everything is Anakin's fault and he never had the potential to be better and we're just gonna ignore his slave upbringing and Palpatine's influence and just decide he was always the worst person alive and his redemption at the end-" (which I will admit was kinda small in comparison to his crimes, but also was still the centerpiece of the movies that are the centerpiece of the franchise) "-does not matter at all, fuck that guy, and also the Jedi are still 100% perfect btw". And I do not like that.

Like

I really don't wanna get into the weeds here, but there's something about this that really doesn't sit right with me. I will happily call Kylo Ren a neo-nazi school shooter all day, because his awfulness was established and reinforced as his own choice, (no matter what RoS may retroactively claim) and while I could understand the argument for Palpatine being to blame for literally everything in the Prequels, (he is the big bad for a reason, after all) and I won't deny that Darth-youngling-slayer-Vader isn't even remotely close to innocent either; idunno, it still feels off.

There's just, this weird undercurrent of pushing the blame, or the idea the Jedi may have been even the teensiest tiniest bit less than perfect, or provided any ammunition for Palpatine to use against them, off to anyone and everyone else. And not only does it feel divorced from the actual subtext or even text of the Prequel Trilogy, the context of all the different factors that led to Anakin becoming Vader, (some of which he was responsible for, some of which he was not) or the ending of RotJ; but it also just feels increasingly bizarre outside of that. Like y'all are projecting onto the Jedi so hard that anything said against them feels like a personal attack, and the response is to refuse all responsibility on their behalf. And pardon the pun, but that feels very irresponsible when taking into account the political aspect of some of what the prequels were trying to say about complacence in the face of rising fascism.

I can sorta get why people would be like this, I have heard horror stories about Karen Traviss's Jedi-bashing nonsense, but this is going too far in the other direction at this point. I can also understand how RoS dropping the ball with TLJ's setup could aid in this, since I think TLJ's overall point that the Jedi are still good, but do severely need to evolve and change, was undercut by JJ's own blind worship. But that doesn't make the point any less valid at the end of the day, you're just missing it completely.

#not a reblog #star wars #star wars discourse #jedi discourse #maybe there's some vital context I'm missing #in the clone wars or whatever #since I am a movie-only gal #but this really reads to me like people #who took the OT's stilted and biased account #of them at face value #but instead of getting mad at the prequels #just decided to completely misread them #to align with that prior perception #for the record I do not think the jedi suck #I think they were trying to do the right thing #but made a fuckton of mistakes #that Palpatine was more than happy to exploit #thus this trend of completely denying those mistakes #is really really fucking stupid #and honestly a little uncomfortable #and I just hope that y'all don't approach #important irl issues the same way #really. every time I see stuff like this #it reminds me that at the end of the day #while TLJ made me appreciate #and even love the movies again #I will always hate 99% of star wars fans
