    1. Hope you don't read this David. But interesting how he blinks for almost every syllable. Almost like he's fluttering every word through his eyes

    2. The fact that the same guy who did "A Ghost Story" and "The Green Knight" also did "Peter Pan & Wendy" (which should have been just called "Wendy") is one of the most disappointing and personally insulting things ever… I hope he reads this. Shame on you, David.

    3. It’s a shame that Anne Hathaway got a bunch of work done on her face. She had one of the most unique looks in my opinion, but now she just looks like every other actress.

    4. The movie premiered weeks ago. Waiting for it to come out on streaming now, had no chance to see it in cinemas. Absolutely loved "The Green Knight".

    5. OMG ANNIE IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN IN THE WORLD I LOVE HER EYES AND HER LITTLE BUNNY TEETH ARE SO CUTE!!And her voice is truly amazing, I love the songs from the movie

    6. I just want to say what an experience Mother Mary is. It's definitely very much a creature of the same vein as The Green Knight, the director's previous A24 film, and I very much dig the abrupt shift from grounded drama to sinister-esque metaphysical thriller at ~1 hr mark (if FKA Twigs shows up, you know shit is about to become weird—see Two Weeks).

    7. 'A Ghost Story' is one of very few movies that made me think of, I guess, the world and time differently. It left me with such an odd feeling. It makes you feel like you've thought of something in a way you never thought of before. I dunno, hard to explain. I bring it up all the time, though.

      Then, I watched The Green Knight and just said "okay, I'm watching every movie this guy ever directs". When i get the time, I'm seeing this.
