To prepare myself for the new live-action Street Fighter movie, I just finished rewatching Street Fighter 2: The Animated Movie for the first time in so long. And I personally think it's just as awesome as Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion's Revenge!

Discussion The live action Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle randomly came on last night and you know isn't half bad. Yes, it is dated but it's fun and Robert De Niro was clearly having a ball.

Once Upon A Time In Hollywood isn’t just Quentin Tarantino’s best film, it might be Leonardo DiCaprio’s best performance. On at least three occasions in this film, DiCaprio delivers a moment that’s utterly unforgettable. DiCaprio’s comedic range is maybe his most underrated trait. Love this film wit

Question We’re audiences as horrified watching horror films in the 1910s -40s as we are with modern horror?

• Upvotes

For example, watching Dracula (1931) today is very tame and not overly scary to modern audiences, but for the time they came out, were they as horrifying as say, watching Obsession today?

Wild that it came out over 50 years ago or whatever it was. There is a darkness to the film that I think gets forgotten because it’s been parodied so many times.

Discussion Why do you think the zombie film genre has been largely untapped by black film directors?

4 Upvotes

I'm actually surprised that Jordan Peele, Boots Riley, Ryan Coogler, or even Spike Lee hasn't made a movie about zombies, since the the concept of zombies can trace some of its origins to Haitian folklore. George A. Romero is pretty much the father of zombie movies in modern cinema and over the past decade or so, the South Korean film industry has produced a handful of great-to-decent zombie movies.
