BWAAA WAA WAA WOM

I like how in that scene the black dude is also cheating on his wife but is chastising her for not loving her husband and then he’s like I love my wife.

Lmao in a real situation that nigga would’ve had his balls in a vice with crazy Natalie blackmailing the shit out of him and ridiculing him not the other way around. Totally unrealistic

a lot of things about thid movie would be different in a real situation lmaaao

It was the requeriment to put it on netflix

Ok Netflix.

I think it this is actually the truth. From what I remember in the book, the main character is an autist and doesn’t fuck anyone besides her husband. I also think she was Asian in the book

Makes one think.

There are foundations that give grants, funding, etc to film studios if the studio meets certain requisites. Some of these requisites are: interracial marriage, having a racially diverse main cast, depicting lgbtqa+ characters in a positive light, depicting characters with mental and/or physical disabilities in a positive light (why do you think every movie has at least one amputee?).

Take it one step back and ask yourself: who operates these foundations, and why do they operate these foundations? What is their goal?

The shimmer is projected out by the walls of the hive, which is made up of many individual cells that work together to form a superorganism. Part of the wall is donated from the hive to form the doppelganger

Its literally cosmic horror cancer.

nah nigga. humanity was like ants to that alien. it probably didn't even notice us until at the end

roadside picnic did it better

this part was incredible. real shame this movie wasn't nominated for anything

One thing I wondered - the woman who was played by Jennifer Jason Leigh had cancer when she went into the Shimmer. Everything inside the Shimmer is absorbed by it and becomes a part of it. It refracts everything into everything else. So would her cancer be refracted also? Wouldn't the Shimmer and everything inside it get cancer and die?

I loved this movie

It was royally fucked over in theaters for having that part too. The producers all told the director it was "too weird", especially with the lack of dialog for so long, and wanted him to change it. He wouldn't budge, so they only gave him a USA theatrical release and only for one month, then it went straight to Netflix worldwide.
I got to see it though, about one year ago exactly

obviously to keep you a virgin.

top kek it was garbage

I don't think so, it is likely naturally resilient to the ailments that it might attain from any organisms refracted inside its bubble, such as cancer, diseases and genetic disorders. The shimmer does not become the organisms it absorbs / refracts; more they become part of it, and also joining with everything else it's taken. It chose to destroy and absorb JJL's body instead of copying her like with the other(s) who'd made it to the lighthouse, presumably because her cancer made it pointless to duplicate her.

why is my Scorned Juden Detector going off?

It's already cancer. The symbolism was pretty heavy handed, life is cancer in a slowed down rate, not much would change.

I'd imagine it's constantly going off tbphwyf. Mental illness doesn't have an off switch.

>the movie was trash, but the ending was kino

Fixed
This

It was a poor man’s Stalker and those women characters were really stupid and made lots of dumb decisions. That and also the drama was drawn out and boring and the movie could’ve been better if they just got on with the story instead of slowing down to show us the ladies’ “acting”. Way too much wasted potential and time.

The shimmer is not intelligent. It doesn't decide, it doesn't want, it doesn't choose what it duplicates and what not. It just does.

it has NOTHING in common with stalker you goddamned cuckold

Cancer is basically already a shimmer within the human body.

It's weird, this scene was terrifying in theaters but watching it on YouTube makes it seem normal.

>this much COPE

Ok Alex Garland. It’s a totally unique film buddy. You’re the first to do it. There there.

The only thing they have in common is a group of people going into a weird place
Garland is a turbohack but he didn't rip off stalker
If anything it's closer to "the mist" in terms of themes, presentation and story

This was all kind of my point; the only difference between this & most of the other stronk womerns movies was the way it was marketed. It didn't invent any drummed up controversy over stronk vaginas in films & did horrendous moneywise as a result.

No, your point implied it was good enough to be meritable. STALKER for example does the same thing, but it merits being lauded because the actors, the design, and script were good. In this movie while it does the same thing as STALKER, the acting is mediocre, the design is cool but bogged down by cheap effects and sets (budget constraints), and the script is laughable at times with really silly and expositional dialogue and often times unrealistic.

So the reason why it didn’t do so well is because it wasn’t good enough. Simple as that.

JJL's character is heard talking about an "unfathomable mind" to something when Lena is walking up to her under the lighthouse.
The dopplegangers seem to be under the control of something intelligent while they are still forming, something that tries to study and imitate the person it is copying while also actively preventing them from leaving. Lena's doppelganger only was vulnerable to just being handed that live grenade and standing there with it because it was basically just being born right then, becoming independent from the control of the shimmer.

To you, because that's how you interpreted it.
Yet I clarify what the intent I had was & you continue to argue based off your mistaken interpretation. A curious trait.

>So the reason why it didn’t do so well is because it wasn’t good enough.
It got a bullshit cinematic release in America that nobody knew about, and then didn't get released on digital until like last month, on fucking Amazon. While it was dumped onto Netflix in Europe like a year ago. So anyone in America that wanted to see it pretty much HAD to steal it, which they could easily do.

It doesn't matter how "good" you think it was relative to fucking STALKER, it "didn't do well" because it "got absolutely fucked into oblivion by the distributors."

Same here, I watched it in midnight with all doors open+all lights turned off. Useally I don't get scared from media but this was terrifying

now post it with the music

I mean it does kinda show why having a bunch of mentally unstable bitchy women act like a military squad is doomed to fail. Really think the MC would have done much better if she went by herself. Heck didn't most the SF guys at least make it to the lighthouse? Least their skeletons

Lol we get it Alex Garland. Your movie is unique and totally not STALKER. Give it a rest.

i actually believe you but do you have any sauce on those claims?

>it’s not similar except for this one thing
Yeah I’m not playing that game with you Alex. Your movie is totally unique bud. Don’t worry. Everyone totally doesn’t think it’s a poor man’s STALKER. It totally failed because we’re misogynists uh huh.

How does it teleport?

Her intense regret over that decision and the guilt she felt over the effect it had on her marriage as well as her husband's state of mind was the prime motivating factor in her volunteering for the suicide mission into the shimmer. She knew he would not have volunteered to go in himself if she had stayed faithful. The film did not portray either the affair or the black dude in a positive light at all

It would seem so. There is no other explanation for how he got there. Though when Lena's forming-doppelganger teleports to block her from leaving, it seems more to grow out of the fungus-like stuff all over the floor

only memorable part of the movie. Bear thing is overrated.

>we can all agree the soundtrack is Kino.

Of course, Geoff Barrow from Portishead and Ben Salisbury did the soundtrack.

I thought the film was alright over all, but I don't know what they were thinking with that sound track.

What are you on about? This was the best part of the movie

Personally I thought that sequence toward the end would have been better without that music. But that's just my humble opinion.

what did the alien mean by this ?

is the book good?

Why didn't they do any more with their memory loss besides one scene? Should have kept happening.
Why didn't the study team send one person or even a rat just ten feet in then back out and run a million tests?
Why not fly above and drop a daisy cutter on the lighthouse?

I didn't realize he was involved in Dredd, kind of makes sense. Fucker's an artfag

Yeah watching it now makes me want to do acid again.
