Alright, I don't know if the movie is going to be good or not, but I'm blown away by the trailer.
Like many people, I've been wondering for a while if anyone could be believable as Michael Jackson and manage to suspend our disbelief?
Well, watch and tell me:

“What makes On This Day notable is that it was made by Darren Aronofsky’s studio Primordial Soup. What also makes it interesting is that it was created with AI. The third thing that makes it interesting is that it is terrible.”

#QuestionOfTheDay who is a character that ruined a work of fiction you were otherwise enjoying and why?
bonus points if you actually stopped watching/playing/reading etc because of this character, so not just like an annoying character you hate but you still kept going

#QuestionOfTheDay what's a piece of fiction that really blew your mind/impacted/changed your perspective/taught you an important value as a child/teen where that impact/perspective/lesson isn't particularly unique or groundbreaking but it was your first encounter with it and it's meaningful to you?
everybody has to have their first encounter with a concept, no matter how obvious/tropey/overplayed etc, at some point in their life. So don't be ashamed if your answer is like "this episode of a cartoon show taught me not to hate ugly people" or something. This is a safe space for sharing. At least I will try my best to keep it as one.

I really enjoyed 28 Years Later.
It is a weird film, but I think it genuinely builds on the zombie genre and finds a unique balance of beauty and darkness, depth and silliness.
From what I can see, people who dislike it mostly hate it for plot holes and the bizarre ending. I will not spoil anything by going into details but i was willing to suspend disbelief a little to let the film explore this post apocalyptic zombie world, and simultaneously make some poignant meta commentary on post-Brexit UK.
And I agree that the ending is bizarre, but it is clearly a cliffhanger for the Bone Temple, and in that sense it really does work.
8/10 good fun, would watch again.
