I should really see both, just the 'cinema experience' has lost it's luster compared to just 5 years ago.
Obsession is feminist horror.
That's still not true, unless you mean the horror of a feminist manchild being given a wish
There are numerous feminist thinkpieces about Obsession online. The film is obviously about male entitlement and consent. That's why the target of his romantic wish inexplicably "wakes up" every now and then to remind the audience that she did not consent to the relationship.
You are a reliable inverse weathervane; if you're saying it isn't so, then it usually is so.
Haven't seen the movie, don't care about horror.
Just want to point out there are, "numerous thinkpieces about Bayonetta being a gay icon," online. Doesn't mean it was ever intended or even true. You probably shouldn't base your worldview on how your enemies see it.
From what I've read about it, the movie is pushing two themes. One, that ALL men are toxic, misogynist, and horny. All of them, no exceptions! Even the friendly ones you've known for years; give them half a chance, and they'll rape you for all you're worth!
And two, that when women do bad things, it's still all men's fault.
Yup.
What, you don't like dipshits scrolling through their phones in the middle of the movie on full brightness?
Try more like 15-20 years.
I can't remember the last time I was regularly going to the cinema but it feels like a lifetime ago.
Last film I saw in a cinema was Top Gun Maverick
Though I had a day off so got to enjoy a mostly empty theatre with an old guy a few rows down. Really needed a piss so went just before the funeral scene, came back and the guy went 'you're good, didn't miss any action'
What an absolute bro.
