I blame Cinema Sins for this trend, they really screwed up movie discussions

-People never reading the article and jumping to insane conclusions based on the title alone (big problem on all subreddits)
-Getting offended by diversity
-"Still holds up!" after <10 years
-Super hyperbolic opinions (it's either a masterclass hidden indie gem or its the worst thing ever)

Omg Tarsem Singh is back, I thought he'd never make a film again since the only thing he did in like 7 years was that Lady Gaga music video. Dude has made some of the most gorgeous movies (aside from Self/Less)

The worst is when those Collider articles with "according to Reddit" literally in the title are posted here again lol. That website is junk

Reply to comment by Twigling in Accidently stumbled upon this movie (Your Name), now it's my favourite anime movie by SociallyAnxiousGuy23
The Garden of Words was very good, I concur. The animation in that film blows my mind. Honestly my favorite is Children who Chase Lost Voices

Generally I think movies where people are stuck in one place are called bottle movies, so I guess it's just a horror bottle movie?

I liked it until I saw his other movies like Weathering With You and his older work like Voices of a Distant Star/5 Cm per Second, and then I realized that he's just been making the same movie over and over for decades

Reply to comment by nevereatpears in Martin Scorsese's After Hours is so underappreciated, it feels like his take on a David Lynch/Kafka-esque nightmare by nevereatpears
I see it discussed pretty often in various film circles and it has 146k views on Letterboxd, especially compared to movies of the same niche like Miracle Mile. Besides I don't think a film by Martin Scorsese, who's one of the most popular and acclaimed directors of all time, can ever be considered "obscure".

God I hate that subreddit. Really toxic and incessant whining too
