God, FUCK YOU, Paul Wet Shit Anderson. You turned what could have been a masterpiece in the exploration of psychological and cosmic horror into a BRAINDEAD ABOMINATION THAT SUITS YOUR MIDDLE FUCKING NAME.

I am genuinely pissed. I'm not kidding, anons. I am actually personally fucking offended. Event Horizon could have been a masterful stroke in the vein of Tarkovsky, Kubrick, or even Cronenberg. Instead we got this stupid, ugly, waste of genetic material to create something so mind-numbingly horrid, so phenomenally disappointing, SO MOTHERFUCKING DULL, that I'm legitimately angered.

Fuck you, you grimy piece of shit. If you die tomorrow, no one outside of your immediate family will weep for you, you talentless fucking hack.

P.S. Don't watch Event Horizon. You'll only feel crushingly let down.

I suggest finding other forms of entertainment in your life that do not in any way involve any sort of entertainment media written, stage, or electronic.

Everyone told me this was a good movie. It sucks and I didn't find out till afterwards that this hack directed it.

The first twenty minutes are promising. It goes under like a rampaging bull in quicksand after, though.

I enjoy the medium. I don't enjoy those who stereotype the medium. If he wanted to make generic action schlock, he shouldn't have chosen such a scintillating topic. Fuck that British fuck.

I'm in the same boat. Just terrible.

Well, the biggest problem is that the entirety of entertainment media is just a social propaganda vehicle. Because of that, they never stray into anything really good because their agenda pulls them right back into the same old shit you always see.

Go on lb and find the most autistic review of a WS Anderson flick

The hyper-conceptualist post-modern masterpiece of the 21st & probably Anderson's best movie thus far - after Afterlife's almost wholly formalist work here finally PWSA culminates and progresses an entire body of ideas and politics simmering since Shopping. Like his best work it most closely resembles his favorite director, Fritz Lang, but this is like Lang chopped up, spewed out and reconstituted into something wholly new and immediate for the 21st century. Here is a world where the world itself does not exist - the only thing that can be trusted to be actually physical is a series of grids and corridors - cities have been decimated - senses of place and sense of being have become simulation. Other human beings that are left are controlled by AI - life itself is little more than moving through a series of grids and simulations, you as the player struggling to survive as AI spawns enemies to prevent your existence, on a map that only it can see. What is the only constant in this life? Surveillance.

The only thing which seems to remain of concrete physicality is the ice-bed lying above where most of the movie takes place. This space is a dystopia leaving us with merely the remains of ships and water - at first it seems we have entered another Ice Age but the truth is far more interesting - that we are in the remains of Soviet Russia, the sadness that communist symbols are now little more than artifact and are only viewed with incomprehension when seen. Furthermore, that in this place where there was once revolution, there is now the foundation of a world ruled only by corporation and AI - so much so to the point that human needs are incongruous because the mere existence of humans has been deemed unnecessary.

>>71457719

Because people crave good science-fiction. It's a shame we rarely get it.

>>71457742

It really is a shame. Fortunately, we still get a host of excellent movies a year; unfortunately, the most financially successful movies will always appeal to the masses. There won't be a paradigm shift anytime soon as far as I can see.

Damn son, just warm up another hot pocket and paint another WH40K figurine already

>Not watching movies ironically for f-fun

Maybe you actually missed the entire point of the movie, you should re-watch it to further understand it.
>>
>>71457433
It was a lot scarier when it was released, during the Star Trek TNG era. Space sci-fi was all utopian and hopeful, and this movie's commercials had no indication that it was a horror movie. When you watch a horror movie knowing it's a horror movie, yeah it's going to suck and look dull. When you watch it thinking it's going to be uplifting and optimistic about human nature, it fucks with you.

Also you're a pretentious jackass.

How young do you have to be for this to be the first time you're seeing Event Horizon? Holy shit.

Or this could just be pasta, I don't know anymore.
>>
>>71458359

You're right, if you don't watch every movie the year it's released, you're too young to watch it.

Stellar logic, you dumb, crusty fuck.

It is an awful film but we knew that when it was released-- no surprises there, new pal. 1 star out of 4.

It's the best 40k movie ever accidentally made.

>>71458790

Yeah. They tend to completely overlook the cp, gore, and trap pics, though. After all, 4chan doesn't give ratings!

Accurate rating.

I agree with you Anderson shit all over resident evil for me, his shitty actress wife jovavich too, they created absolute garbage series that never should of been given a sequel. Into The Trash it should have gone.

Event Horizon was a fluke.
Despite having Paul Wes Anderson as the director it was a great movie.
Most likely he phoned in his directorial duties.
Probably even filmed half the scenes without his cuck self on set.
