The Future of Entertainment With The Critical Drinker

The Creator was probably the best film I saw last year

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. – John 3:16.

Its that simple (Romans 8:35-39) (1 Corinthians 15 1-4) All have sinned (Romans 3:23) Sin is simply transgression of the law, Jesus took away our sin, cleansed us with his Blood (1 John 1:7-9) PERMANENTLY making us children of God (John 1:12) 1 Corinthians 6:11.) (1 John 3:4) (1 John 5:4) but if we follow the law, we are fallen from grace/freedom(Galatians 5:4) We put ourselves in bondage relying on our own works of the Law.( Galatians 5)

Regardless of how we live, Jesus lived and walked perfectly for us (1 Peter 1;17-20), we are imputed his righteousness (Romans 4:22-25), given the free gift of salvation through God's grace (Ephesians 2:8-9), given eternal joy (not just temporary happiness) true BLISS, fellowship with God, (ISAIAH 52:11, better understanding of his creation (Ephesians 2:6-7) and freely rewarded with the kingdom of God. (Galatians 3:17-29)

Through Jesus alone, (Rev 1:6) we gain the inheritance promised to the seed of Abraham by God not by any work we do.(Romans 4:4-8) Rejoice and rest in the messiah live your life by faith, by liberation of the law( 2nd Corinthians 5:7) GOD BLESS!

Contrast Taika Waititi with '80s- and '90s-era Sam Raimi.
5:32 David Lynch had some colorful words regarding the whole concept of watching a movie on a phone.

sorry ben …the superhero movies have to bee seen big screen …that doesnt mean it is goof though .

This is the problem I've bitched about in Star Trek before. Even in the later period of the Berman era, writers had to pick and choose what scenes were really necessary. Now? Now you can pad an episode with countless vfx shots of battles that the TNG (or even Enterprise) writers would have to avoid.

its done

there are very few movies worth going to the cinema , the big religious epics from the 50's, films likes Stars Wars, Blade runner and the likes of Interstellar. Why would anyone pay to see an Adam Sandler movie or a romcom , when the cinema experience adds nothing

Critical Drinker is just great. Genuine intelligent reviews, an asshole persona, but at the end of the day he really is an upstanding guy. I enjoy Greg from time to time, but nerdrotic often feels just mean spirited.

Drinker w/o sunglasses… geez… I didn’t know he had eyes

Just block Hollywood and grab yourself a copy of twin town or face, real movies, you can thank me later 😅

Love both gents but have to disagree on Tenet, I thought it was great. Really messed with your mind, but it was good.

I admit I loved "Ghostbusters Afterlife" (2021). And I am VERY ANTI WOKE. Under his recommendations, I watched THE WRESTLER (2008) , 1917 (2019) , JOKER (2019) , and THE MENU (2022) . GREAT STUFF in this modern day where WOKE shight has ruined so much.

Ben needs to talk faster. He hasn’t quite reached auctioneer.

A big big part of this is because of the death of the DVD and advent of the streaming platforms. Matt Damon talks about this if you search but basically, because no one is interested in physical media anymore (which has decent margins, certainly better than digital), studios are resistant to take cinematic risks anymore. They strongly rely on tried and tested IP which invariably means reboots and sequels. People are also more resistant to go the cinema because of the increased quality of in home entertainment and streaming services giving you whatever you want whenever you want. As a business I can understand why studios might want to pay it safe but it does impact creativity and risk takings.

How did "Lady Ballers" do at the worldwide box office?
