The Endless started out okay but the ending was a mess. Not a good movie.

It's simultaneously beautiful and disappointing. Wasnt there some rumor of a much longer cut not long after it came out?

sounds familiar...it is weirdly short

epiphany on Justin's behalf made the ending feel forced and all the other loops and concepts left on floor (e.g. do the totem poles have the same effect as the loop borders?)


are frustrating, but I forgave those shortcomings because the narrative choices were smart enough to leave the right plot questions unresolved

Spoiler: show
Were they in a larger loop? Was their mothers death part of the camp's loop? An attempt at the creation of another loop? Was their escape from 'the camp' defeating the entity after many attempts trying to get them to leave?


and it wasnt trying to prescribe a view on

Is God a vengeful entity that is just fucking with for us own amusement or do we do this to ourselves?

i don’t think my opinion has changed much from the last viewing...visually stunning, intriguing concept, not a miss but could be better...Weisz is great- where has she been?

didn’t realize how much Jackman’s performance in Prisoners was like this...mostly well meaning, but overbearing af...would have preferred someone else

also weird as hell to see Hector Salamanca

Me neither, but I really want to see it. I like to watch movies with people and nobody I know wants to watch it.

TIS BAD LUCK TO SPAR WITH A 'GULL

Be prepared to turn subtitles on for all the old timey dialogue. VG, from what I know of you, you will probably love it.

Cool Hand Luke

What we've got here is failure to communicate
Some men, you just can't reach
So, you get what we had here, last week
Which is the way he wants it
Well, he gets it
And I don't like it any more than you men

The way they've always done before

We practice selective annihilation against mayors and government officials to create a vacuum. Then we fill that vacuum. As popular war advances, peace is closer.
