Shameless plug for our Swiftie community over at !taylorswift . There are dozens of us Lemmy Swifties. Dozens!
As for the movie, I saw her live and by far one of those shows that you just will have an anchoring memory too. She’s clearly a showman, she put meticulous detail into every step, every note. I do wish she had been a bit more personal, but she went for 3.5 hours of songs, can’t blame her for needing to power through it all.
I personally won’t be going to the movie, but will enjoy it at home when it comes out on my sound system, very excited for that! I hope everyone who goes has fun!
Yeah I’ll echo what everyone else is saying, the visuals and art direction are stellar, some of the best original sci-fi art in the last decade, rivaling Dune and Avatar - the story is as generic of an action movie as you can get. It’s a fun movie tho, I enjoyed my watch, but it’s not a “run out and see” kinda movie unless you’re a VFX nerd like me.
Wiki link goes elsewhere. But when I read the summary above it sounded a lot like Hotel Coolgardie. So I looked up the RH wiki article; yup, inspired by that doc.
I was thinking exactly the same! But couldn’t remember the name of it, so my thoughts were along the lines of "Wasn’t this a documentary? Wasn’t this released earlier then 2023? Pretty sure the girls involved were from northern Europe?
Have a feeling that Hotel Coolgardie will actually be much more interesting viewing to many of the target audience of this new movie. So many uncomfortable and semi-surreal moments. Available on Prime in Australia, so possibly is also on US Prime, for those interested.
It’s based on the books, but it’s not exactly just a modern adaptation. Rather, the main character of the show is a guy who is a big fan of the books and uses them as inspiration for his own escapades.
