Reply to Good movies to watch with headphones? by Fvoltes
I moved to headphones in my new place because the furnace/ac is so loud. It’s kinda game changing, don’t need subtitles, can walk away and still hear things.
Tenent is watchable with headphones
Spider-Man: Into The SpiderVerse is great with ‘em.

Moonlight. Can't watch it too often. Kinda leaves me devastated.

Reply to comment by Houli_B_Back in Why don’t audiences like Rian Johnson’s work (barring Knives Out) as much as the critics do? by [deleted]
Mrm.. no. He is repeatedly anti-establishment. He hasn't bent any genres. He does homage to mystery movies.
He looks at an established order and points out the hypocrisy and dirty truths of that order, be it upper-class north-easterners, centuries old established religious orders, or new-age tech-bro billionaires.
Lots of people don't like tweedy people pointing out the flaws in the world they have vested interests in. Lots of people want to see the toughest person win because they're the toughest person. How many 'who's the strongest avenger' posts do we get here?
Rian Johnson is a treasure because he questions the system. He's also a bit tiring once you realize this because he always puts this spin on things. There's nothing wrong with it, but it feels like he's painted himself into a corner creatively.

Are you kidding? ‘White man with daddy issues struggles through them and is accepted by his father figure at the end of the story,’ isn’t at the top of the list?

Tron: Legacy is the correct answer. Thank you.
