Frankly, no one should forgive variety for this. Their coverage of Sinners has been racist drivel from jump.

I don't feel like looking it up or giving them traffic. What else have they said?

[-] dylanmorgan@slrpnk.net 24 points 2 days ago

It’s more the discrepancy, like their statements about the deal Ryan Coogler made where the rights to Sinners revert to him in 20 years being the end of Hollywood, while they acted like Tarantino getting the rights to Once Upon a Time in Hollywood was an act of genius.

It had it's problems, and I only noticed any if them because it held my attention so fucking close.

I have never heard of either of these. Should I watch one or both?

[-] blackris@discuss.tchncs.de 20 points 2 days ago

Sinners is absolutely worth it. It is not a perfect movie and has a few rough edges in the last third, but apart from that, it was a great ride.

Yeah, it's rare for horror movies to be given proper appreciation.

[-] jambudz@lemmy.zip 17 points 2 days ago

I don’t really even think of it as horror. Like it wasn’t scary. It’s like a dramatic thriller that happens to have vampires

I thought it was quite scary, but then I'm a wuss when it comes to horror movies

[-] Drusas@fedia.io 2 points 18 hours ago

I think that it is one of those movies that can be scary if you watch it in the right environment, whatever that is for you. I think for most of us that mostly means a dark room, all alone, at night, but whatever works for you.

I did think it had a good amount of creepiness the first time I watched it.
