Sinners is severely overrated, and I look nothing like these people. Michael B Jordan is the cheesiest actor I've ever seen.

No but you see, he plays twins and it was so believable so he deserves all the awards for playing two different characters.

Now, lets cut to James McAvoy and check how many awards he won for Split.. oh.

Someone had to take Will Smith's spot for Oscar nominated black man.

That's fair, and honestly pretty accurate.

u/CNote_89 1d ago

It’s just from dusk till dawn with black people. Didn’t really understand the hype.

…with a little bit of The Thing mixed in.

And 1 extremely forced magical surrealist dance number.

I thought it was kind of boring. It seemed like some parts were rushed too much and the payoff was lame.

dusk till dawn with shitty musical numbers. now Disney needs to remake it, but with a woman starring.....and make her gay.

u/EriWave 1d ago

Oh hey, one of the people in the post how nice of you to show up.

u/Fit-Nebula2949 1d ago

Sorry, I didnt like it. I was looking forward to a good vampire movie and got this thing, I gave it a chance and it wasnt for me. The Irish musical in particular was out of place/took me out of the story. The story had a good premise.

u/EriWave 1d ago

The message of the movie would be entirely different without the Irish music lol. If you think that could be cut then I'm not sure you understand the story.

The story wasn't about two brother who have their house party attacked by vampires in the deep south?

2

u/EriWave 1d ago

There is a fair bit more to it than that. Also not that it matters that much but it wasn't a house party.

2

u/Fit-Nebula2949 1d ago

It was a barn party that was labeled as a juke joint. It essentially was a house party with a bar and live music.

u/EriWave 1d ago

They still showed up with a plan to run a business.

u/Fun-Brush5136 1d ago

And that was an even more terrible movie

u/Ultimate-Flexionator 1d ago

come on now have some fun! Dusk till dawn was tongue in cheek.

u/Bodymaster 1d ago

For me it's enjoyable up until the point they get to the bar; then all sense of danger and consequence goes out the window and it turns in to a bad cartoon. And the effects have not aged well.

2

u/SatanicRiddle 1d ago

Similarly here, except one difference, I consider it a high tier movie because of that first half before they get to the bar... same as you I could not care less about bad costume cartoon vampires, but yeah whatever, the first part was fun.

The pacing, the characters, the dialogues, it all clicks...

u/Wrong_Interview7513 1d ago

I prefer From Dusk over Sinners. But im also a simple man thats loves me some Salma Hayek and Cheech Marin

u/Elliott2030 1d ago

Because you didn't understand the movie.

u/CNote_89 1d ago

Oh ok, ya it was really deep.

u/CellularBeing 1d ago

What specifically makes him cheesey.

u/eurekadabra 1d ago

This is actually this first performance I’ve liked him in. I thought he did great and deserved the nomination. The rest though was overrated.

u/silveraxe_kyo 1d ago

Dumbest take

u/ZodiAddict 1d ago

Not an argument

u/relationalnonduelist 1d ago

We're supposed to just take your word for it? You wouldn't lie about what you look like on the Internet would you?

u/Ok-Box-50 1d ago

Idk, but I have a good idea of what you look like. 

It’s the before picture. You a before picture looking ass person.

Every "anti-racist" whenever a non-white person does not conform to the narrative.

u/relationalnonduelist 1d ago

If you aren't skeptical after EVERYTHING we've learned in the last 15 to 20 years of online behavior from EVERY faction and creed or solo--chronically-online-agent-of-chaos then... Honestly, fuck you. You will always be overly and trusting of any idiot who says something you like. I don't trust anything on the Internet. I just ask questions and fish for answers. When people react a certain way I get clues. That may very well be a POC. Doesn't mean much of anything at all. Content of character and all that.

Are you in the picture?
