Movies where an actor is surprisingly cast. Looking for films where an actor who typically plays a specific kind of role is cast as something completely different.
Examples: Adam Sandler in Uncut Gems or Bill Skarsgård in Barbarian
Major bonus points for super cool mega stars who only play awesome dudes being cast to play blundering idiots who screw everything up and make you feel awkward. Think: "Tom Cruise as Napoleon Dynamite" or "The Rock starring as The Waterboy"

What is your Christmas movie that is not actually a Christmas movie?. What is a movie that gives you the Christmas spirit but is not by genre a Christmas movie? Otherwise a movie you watch every Christmas, even though Christmas is not integral to the plot?

Movies that are based around an act/event that is not shown in the movie.. To give an example, Reservoir Dogs can be seen as a heist movie, as it features the pre-planning of the heist and the subsequent events that occur post-heist; but the actual heist is never shown in the movie.

Fun and lighthearted murder mystery movies?!. I am a huge fan of murder mystery movies of the lighthearted sort. Take for example the Sherlock holmes movies from guy ritchie or ryan johnsons knives out movies.
Does anybody have some recommendations for movies that go into that direction?

I've never cried to a movie before, and I want to change that. I'm a pretty big movie guy, logged over 700 films on Letterboxd but so far, no movies that have made me cry. A few have made me get close, fewer still even wet my eyes, but no movie has actually made me cry before. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Movies with scenes where men cry and show emotions.. I'm trying to show a male teenage client of mine who is really into movies that men don't have to be all big, tough, strong, and never show emotions. Can anyone think of movies where there is a hero that actually breaks down, gets emotional, and (gasp) even... cries?

A movie where there's no in between. One that an individual can either absolutely love or absolutely hate. I'm curious about what many may either totally enjoy or appreciate, or absolutely hate and not like, but not due to a lack of understanding of what the film is about or of the technicalities in plot or production

Okay someone needs to recommend me an ACTUALLY scary film because I'm annoyed. I've been watching horrors since I was way too young and nothing scares me now. All horror movies are just meh. Mid. Whatever.
I love strong imagery, unique and interesting stories rather than just the bog standard possession or haunting (although I'm open if you've got a good one). Don't care much for gore if that's the only leg the movie stands on but am not opposed to it if there's a solid story there.
I want something that I'll be thinking about for days afterwards. I know I'm unlikely to find anything that will genuinely unsettle me but I always hope! I at least want to be gripped.
My boyfriend is a total puss for horrors especially the haunting kind so feel free to throw some of them in for him lmao!
I've been deep on the internet and watched all of the recommended âscariest worst moviesâ and they've all just been naff to me so you gotta pull out some unusual ones to surprise me!

Movies where everything makes sense at the end only, just like a jigsaw puzzle.. Movies which make sense once the end credit has rolled out. Throughout movie you keep guessing or are confused as fuck. But once the final act is played out all the movie make sense just like jigsaw puzzles. Movies from any country/language/year welcome.

What're the worst, most terrible movies you have ever seen?. By terrible movies I mean movies that are just atrocious and horribly done. Shitty everything such as acting, storyline, cgi etc. I wanna see movies that are so bad you can't look away. Movies that are just abominations. I don't know why but I find entertainment in watching things that are terrible. I just like to laugh at it and think "wow this is shit!". So comment any movies you know of that are just trash

Which movies are better than books?. Which sci-fi movie is better that the book
I am looking for any sci-fi movies which are better than the the original book. I finished reading Ready Player One and found the book truly interesting. While I love the movie and the way Spielberg directed it but I found the book better.
I found Enders game better than the book maybe because the movie was new and the book a bit dated.
Are they other movies which are better than their book?

Can anybody recommend some films about a curse?. Might anyone be able to recommend some movies about curses? I'm not necessarily looking for horror films because they tend to err on the side of demonic possession, which isn't really what I'm after (like Insidious, Conjuring, It follows, Exorcist, the Grudge etc).
I'm more interested in the way the curse behaves in *Princess Mononoke*, which acts more as a sub plot/device and takes the form of a bodily blight instead of a paranormal presence. If that make sense? Really, I'm seeking a film about people working against a curse they carry with them.
I'm game for anything! Film, Animation, Tv show. Thanks in advance and happy holidays.

Bad Times at the El Royale (2018). This movie rocks!!
It's plot follows a group of strangers in the early 70s at the El Royale hotel that rests on the border of California and Nevada with a large red line dividing it down the middle. And when shit hits the fan, we follow each character's perspective to what's going on.
This movie is written and directed by Drew Goddard who wrote The Martian and Cabin in the Woods (which he also directed) and this movie is on par with those if not better, imo.
Featuring an ensemble cast with Jon Hamm, Lewis Pullman, Jeff Bridges, Dakota Johnson, Cynthia Erivo, Cailee Spaeny, and Chris Hemsworth. All of them put in amazing performances. But specifically Erivo and Pullman put in performances that are absolutely breathtaking.
The plot and script is interesting and unique with twists and symbolism so well done it definitely warrants a rewatch. Its direction and cinematography rocks, providing a neo-noir look. And it has a killer soundtrack featuring even a deep purple song.
This is a must watch for anyone who enjoys mystery thrillers. 9/10.

I'm looking for a movie with either or all of the following traits; large in scale/set in an expansive world, an interesting plot (a mind bending plot or bnasically a plot that isn't cliche is a plus), possibly a sci-fi though I wouldn't mind other genres like action and epics , good acting and beautiful cinematography. Some of the films similar to what I'm looking for are Interstellar, Blade Runner 2049, Mad Max Fury Road, Tenet, Apocalypto, Kill Bill

Movie with an ending that will destroy me, like Train to Busan. Me and my friend watched Train to Busan together, not really expecting it to be the masterpiece that it was. We were both expecting a regular over-the-top zombie action movie with maybe a little emotional touch since it was korean. But it was actually very well done, and the ending hit us both like a truck. We were crying all over each other before we even knew what hit us. The part where the kid was screaming while her dad jumped off the train was just way more than we could handle.
So, my request is a movie that is similar in the respect that it gets you towards the end when you're not expecting it. A full drama where you can cry at any given part after the half hour mark would not have the same effect. Preferably post 1980s, anything with at least a little action will do. Thanks!

Movies like Se7en?. I loved how dark and brutal it was. How it dived into the psyche of the serial killer, and how the killer seemed two steps ahead of the police.
I've also watched Chinatown and The Silence of the Lambs
I'm fine with non English speaking movies as long as there are English Subtitles available.
Black and white or in color is fine.

Are there any good film remakes of bad movies?. There seems to be a constant stream of bad remakes of really great films that never needed to be remade. I've always wondered why there aren't so many remakes of bad films that could have been so good if the concept was tweaked a bit. It's so disappointing seeing a film that is really bad knowing that the concept is amazing and the film could be absolutely amazing if it was just remade, instead there's just a bunch of pointless remakes that add nothing new to the table like the new goodnight mommy remake (why was that remade, the original was fine as it was). Obviously it's better for companies and filmmakers to draw hype for a remake of a already well known film and it's an easy cash grab vs the risky procedure of remaking a previously bad and probably unknown film. But still, it sucks.
I really haven't seen many films that are remakes of previously bad films. I'd say maybe the crazies remake was a example of this. The original was not bad by all means but the remake I thought was a pretty good rehash to fit with a new time period that takes the originals concept and makes something new out of it. Are there any other films that do this?

It's so disappointing seeing a film that is really bad knowing that the concept is amazing and the film could be absolutely amazing if it was just remade, instead there's just a bunch of pointless remakes that add nothing new to the table like the new goodnight mommy remake (why was that remade, the original was fine as it was). Obviously it's better for companies and filmmakers to draw hype for a remake of a already well known film and it's an easy cash grab vs the risky procedure of remaking a previously bad and probably unknown film. But still, it sucks.
I really haven't seen many films that are remakes of previously bad films. I'd say maybe the crazies remake was a example of this. The original was not bad by all means but the remake I thought was a pretty good rehash to fit with a new time period that takes the originals concept and makes something new out of it. Are there any other films that do this?

If you had to name 3 absolute masterpieces, what would it be?. Name 3 masterpieces that are a must watch and are certain to be a good watch. Also it is a subjective choice so do what you can, the movies should be as flawless as possible.

Best detective/whodunit movies of the 2000s?. I just saw Glass Onion and really enjoyed that style of story telling. Are there any other detective/whodunit films or shows you would recommend?

Movies about lower class life in suburban America. I am looking for a movie about life of lower class people in American suburban areas. Something similar to A24 vibes such as American Honey, The Florida Project etc. Voiceover monologues in a movie would be a plus.
Edit: Thank you guys for recommendations! My watchlist now includes a lot of new interesting titles!

Please suggest me some underrated comedy movies. I want to watch some comedic hidden gems movies. Please don't suggest extremely obvious movies like Airplane or Borat or Superbad or Tropic Thunder or Cornetto trilogy. Please suggest movies that you think should get more attention. Thank you.

Give me that mindfuck movie. My wife is coming home from work, and I'm tasked with coming up with a movie night movie for us. This is the text I sent her as a suggestion:
> Do you want to watch an absolute mindfuck movie with me tonight that once we watch it we'll never be the same again and we probably won't enjoy it in the moment but it will inform the rest of our lives?
Oh Reddit, what do you have in store for us tonight? Break us and rebuild us with your incredible suggestions. Bonus points for broadly leftist or theory/philosophy inspired suggestions or anything that will make us question the framework of reality we've built up around ourselves. Minus points for overtly Nazi shit. Genre wise, sci fi is always good and an easy way to fuck your brain up a bit. But we're open about genre. English language is preferred but not opposed to subtitles.
Edit 1: Thank you all, thankful for your contributions. I'll update with what we end up going with. Locking before we fall into choice paralysis.
Edit 2: my wife has checked in and it's Black Bear. Aubrey Plaza is incredible and I'm very excited. Cheers y'all and thanks for the assistance. Hopefully gonna be a weird night.

[Request] Movies that have wtf ending. Something you wouldn't expect but changes the whole movie. Like Fight Club, The Illusionist, Midsommar⦠something that takes you aback with brilliance.
Edit: thank you all so much, so many suggestions I haven't seen. It'll get me through being stuck at home. Y'all rock my fellow movie people.
Also sorry I can't respond, I didn't expect this many! I'm writing down each one I haven't seen there are a lot!

Generic, but the absolute best movies of the year. I have a few days left of Christmas vacation, so I wanna watch some stuff I missed. I watch a lot of movies, over 100 every year including 2022. I'd link my Letterboxd to give you a picture of what I've seen, but there's something in the rules about links. But needless to say I've seen all your Top Guns and The Batmans. But I'm not just looking for pretty good movies, I'm looking for the absolute best of the best. Oscar contenders. What are the *best* movies of the year that may have went under my radar?

Movie of the end of the world/apocalypse, but from the view of the government (asteroid, virus, zombies, ect). I've seen Contagion and half of The Man in the High Castle, but I want movies that are similar to WWZ, Deep Impact, Greenland, The Day After Tomorrow, and others that focus on how the government is dealing with the situation and maybe how the government collapses
