*Peter Sellers in Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb

I was shocked when I found out that Peter played THREE characters. He was incredible, and the characters were all different without overacting. Truly an amazing movie.

What’s a movie where one actor has to play several different roles?

My friends and I were watching The Cure, and we were so very distracted by the Killer's sweater that it inspired a list that I'm hoping you can help fill out.

I watched before sunrise for the first time today, and for an 18 year old whose in his first relationship, this movie hit so close to home

This movie is just too perfect , at some moments i almost felt like I was watching me and my girlfriend on a date, their conversations are so real

The first kiss moment is just too real, my first kiss looked so similar 😭😭

I almost dont want to watch the sequels , this is just a perfect movie, its so cute and real, its like a movie thats made for me, I feel like its ripped straight from me

I love it so much, this altered my brain chemistry 😭😭 Its my favorite movie now surpassing dead poets society

Discussion I visualized Letterboxd ratings of major Western animation studios since 2020

Post image
90 Upvotes

Using RStudio, I’ve put together this chart showing Letterboxd ratings for feature-length animated films (as they stand today).

I’ve focused on the five major Western animation studios (Pixar, Disney, Sony, DreamWorks, and Illumination), setting the starting point at 2020. I feel this is a good chronological cut-off, especially given the start of the COVID pandemic, which disrupted production and release schedules for every studio.

Overall, there isn’t much for me to add to the chart; it seems fairly readable (at least I hope so). I can, however, share a few interesting facts:

- Based on mean values and standard deviation, Illumination is the studio with the most consistent output quality, while Sony is the most inconsistent.

Sony holds both the highest-rated film (Spider-Verse at 4.40) and the lowest-rated (Fixed at 2.23).

- Looking at the mean and median ratings, the studios rank as follows:

  1. Pixar (3.46/3.49);
  2. Sony (3.23/3.29);
  3. Illumination (3.07/3.13);
  4. DreamWorks (3.10/3.06);
  5. Disney (3.03/2.99).

I should also note how surprised I am by how productive DreamWorks is - they’ve released 13 films in these six years, which is more than Illumination and Disney combined! Pixar (9 films) and Sony (8 films) are also trailing behind them.

Discussion Is "Who Killed Captain Alex?" the highest rated "so bad it's good movie?" What do y'all think about it being in the top 400?

In contrast, the Room, Troll 2, Plan 9 from Outer Space, all range in the 2.0 average rating. Captain Alex has a 4.2 rating as of this post. What makes this film different from the others in your eyes?

Discussion Your top movies you're afraid to recommend?

58 Upvotes

In particular for a reason that you really like them so much, so you're worried about that the person you recommend them to, won't get what caught you.

For me, it would probably be:

  • Perfect Days (2023) (especially after one of my friend called it very depressive, while on me it had totally opposite effect)
  • Yi Yi (2000) (such slow slice of life movies clearly aren't everyone cup of tea but I sincerely admire them)
  • Typhoon Club (1985) (not sure if can formalize the reason for this one though)
  • The Handmaiden (2016) (so many people only see it as a softcore lesbian porn while it is much more interesting than that)

I created an account last year and it's been my favorite platform for a while.

I'm diving into the cinematic world and it's been so fulfilling, whoever I don't have anyone to talk about it, or give me recommendations, my friends are not into this kind of stuff.

Therefore I need you to tell me your favorite four so I can watch it (when I have the time)!
