So my sister and I were talking about the Oscar nominees and I'd mentioned I'd seen Poor Things and she looked at me like I was a creep. She said she hadn't seen it but a friend of hers had and walked out. Are people really that bothered by this movie?

What's creepy about it?
she’s so try hard wannabe quirky cringe
horrible body also
Fun fact, her husband got to frick prime prime Scarlett Johansson in the ass for two years straight in the beginning of the 2000's and now has to settle with her.
probably cheats on her
It has Mark Ruffalo so that is pretty creepy and disturbing.
literally me, the character
No, most normalgays who've seen it unironically seem to love this shit.
I went to watch this with my sister in the theatre without really knowing what it was about. It was pretty akward to watch a ton of sex scene with my sister in the next seat, but I actually enjoyed the movie.
Did you hold hands during it?
Did you makeout with her?
The ads for this movie have been really misleading at least in my country, a lot of people are going to be surprised
It looked like a more colorful version of Tim Burton. Hell, my mum was interested in seeing it, and I am glad I didn't invite her to watch it with me.
You should try watching porn with your sister, it's quite the experience
*making
My mom saw it with a friend who made her walk out so I watched it with her. We both knew it was going to be a macabre movie so it wasn't too awkward.
>Are people really that bothered by this movie?
My only source of normalgay knowledge is the radio hosts I listen to on the commute to work and the consensus I gathered was
>I'm sure it's a good movie, but it is just too weird for me.
>cries about poor kids and cruelty
>becomes a mad doctor who perform weird experiments on unwilling subjects
what did they mean by this?
I guess that she came to terms with her own cruelty as an inherent aspect of her human nature and tried to make the best of it.
Where is that written?
Movie is psyop Pedophile propoganda.
the story is that an infant's brain is put into the body of an adult female and then she is raped by men in every scene.
Yorgos is a shit film maker by the way.
He tries too hard to become the next Kubrick but Nolan danks on him.
pretty sure it's not the mind pedos are interested in.
the mind is the only morally relevant part
In that case all we have to do is put an adult mind in adolescent girls' bodies.
yorgos has no artistic talent or creativity in his body
just a rich pervert midwit with a camera crew doing his bidding
KILL RICH HACKS
Ask a woman to name 3 countries and tell me again this isnt metacommentary.
I don't think this is the movie where I stop engaging in degenrate shit. Don't get me wrong I am no pearl clutching protestant and do like blood, gore and nudity in some movies but they're really trying to work in the pedo stuff subtly and I dont like it
>everything that kind of disturb my fragile zoomer mind is a psyop
me chinese me go greentext in your coke
according to your logic if someone fricks a 5 yr old it isnt pedophilia so long as that 5 yr old had an adult brain?
Exactly. It's like that Shauna chick who has the body of a 7 year old. She's an adult ffs.
>body of a 7 year old
Her body is literally 23 years old.
Is her boyfriend a pedo? No.
heres the problem with your logic:
most adult women are mentally children and adult men frick them anyways and everyone is fine with.
most children are not mentally adults and if i felt up a 5 year old on the playground it doesnt matter how mature, adult, etc that 5 year olds brain is; im going to jail
>most adult women are mentally children
That's their own fault. An actual child can't be blamed for being a mental child. An adult has had enough time.
>He tries too hard to become the next Kubrick but Nolan danks on him.
kek
1/10 made me reply
The fact that you're asking this question proves they are
Garbage which promotes pedophilia.
>but a friend of hers had and walked out
that didn't happen but should have. also show pics of your non-existent sister
Why do you lie for teh epic LULZ in the interwebz
No. It’s incredibly tame and never once leering or pornographic. The movie is about someone discovering the human experience, sex is part of that experience, and Americans need to take the stick out of their collective ass about le icky nipplez think of le the children already
can you expand on anything you’ve just asserted
I saw the movie. It's not that sexual. There is more graphic sex in tv shows like euphoria.
can you say why
Yes because the sex isn't that graphic or degenerate. It's normal sex. The sex scenes aren't very long. The camera never really stays long on a tit shot or butt shot. That scene of Sydney sweeney get naked for photos and getting fricked is way more graphic than this movie. They stay on her breasts for minutes at a time. In poor things the sex scenes are like jump cut montages. You see a tit for 1 second then it's another position and its over before you know it. The sex scenes are also really funny.
why and how are they funny
One guy brings his kids to teach them how to have sex with a woman and the one kid is like pretty cheesed and not paying attention and other is furiously writing notes. The movies a comedy you fricking idiots.
ok so i asked why something was funny and you call me a fricking idiot
i’m guessing you have a dog in this fight politically
i’ll watch the movie and decide for myself who’s right here
have a nice day pedophile.
Please be sincere
have a nice day pedo.
Stop larping. No one is falling for it. You are on Cinemaphile the dumpster of the internet. This place is founded on trannies (linetrap) and pedophilia and homosexuality and degeneracy of the worst kind. Your contrarianism for teh lulz is very low effort.
have a nice day pedophile.
you don’t speak for anybody but yourself
this i am le oldgay larp is what’s really cringe
I'm 37 and have been here forever. Habeeb it and skyqueen forever.
>I'm 37 and have been here forever
You are 37 years old pedophile.
Please be sincere
Go slit your wrists, pedophile.
Then you clearly misunderstood the assignment because it was posted along with gore as shock content. Maybe you wrongly considered yourself in good company,or this is a larp from someone but you are wrong.
Quads of truth
Cuties is also a comedy
>That scene of Sydney sweeney get naked for photos and getting fricked is way more graphic than this movie
can you tell me the episode number and timestamp so I can make a value judgment for myself?
>having sex with adult women is now pedophilia
Haven't seen the movie, but having sex with a moronic person (mind of a child in an adult's body) is considered unethical. I wouldn't call it pedophilia but it's definitely a little messed up.
do you think you’re taking in front of 4 year olds who can’t keep track of context
normies will pretend to be shocked by anything
stop putting that much thought into it
I did feel tempted to walk out during the first 10 or 20 minutes because I was uncomfortable, but then I managed to relax and enjoy it.
>that refractory period kicking in
Sounds like you were getting raped and just stopped struggling
Why does this not look anything like Emma Stone? Or is this another character in the movie?
this is a movie for femcels so all the women in it are ugly autistic hags
It's another character
Lanthimos is perverted piece of shit and closet pedophile.
She looks so shit with dyed eyebrows and hair
Wtf it really looks like a kubrick wannabe
Wtf are you talking about lmfaoo
OMG YORGOS IS INFLUNECED BY KUBRICK, NO WAY!
Pretty bad when the interesting parts in a movie are influences
If ever run to that sweaty, perverted piece of shit Greek, i'll beat him up.
All the men in the movie are stupid or evil and all the women are intelligent and dignified.
Mccandles and God aren't stupid or evil. The black guy isn't stupid or evil. The majority of them main character men aren't stupid or evil actually.
>Mccandles
He'a the archetypal nice guy, whose redemptive qualities stem from the fact that he won't judge Bella for her actions and agree to become a husband to a woman who is definitely having sex with her friend.
>God
He was castrated, not a threat. He filled in as a father figure for Belle on account of his castration, which is played for laughs as opposed to the horror elicited by Bella's potential castration.
you clearly havent seen the movie
One of the best new movies I've seen in quite some time. The fact that people can't enjoy this movie goes to show that most of society deserves nothing.
You are a pedo.
Please be sincere
Frankenstein is an allegory about israeli Usury. Never forget that.
then everything in the history of the world is an allegory about israeli usury, which is a good point and a bad argument
>in the beginning god created the heavens and the earthrys
My brother saw it and he couldnt stop talking about how bad it was. I hadn't even heard of it but i saw it was yorgos and told him all his movies are weird and you either hate em or love em.
Jack Antonoff was involved in Poor Things?
Can I get a QRD? I know this movie is about a woman who gets a babies brain put into her head, but doesn’t she have some sorta woman power moment where she then starts fricking a bunch of guys for money and it’s supposed to be a movie women like?
She starts with a baby's brain but it rapidly develops beyond that; by the time she's on the boat she's reading Emerson. There's some ambiguity about what her mental age is at different points because her IQ, her grasp on language and her comprehension of social and societal norms are all out of step with each other. Even when she is clearly functionally adult her sentences are wonky, like someone who speedran growing up in a matter of months. The premise is basically an excuse to explore different aspects of society, morality, norms etc. through the perspective of someone with the capacity of an adult but the sense of wonder and curiosity of a child, someone completely unfamiliar with social norms or any sense of "this is just the way things are."
I understand why people feel icky about the premise given what we know about Hollywood, but the movie is not at all the pedobait people are assuming it is. There is no scene of her having any childish mannerisms while having sex, and while the movie has a lot of sex and nudity it is all shot very clinically and detachedly, definitely not in a way designed to eroticize.
>by the time she's on the boat she's reading Emerson
Children can't read Emerson?
Female Frankenstein has a "backpack around Europe" adventure
I really liked the movie, bros. Saw it with my girlfriend.
Best movie to come out in a long time and also best comedy of the last 15 years.
Best movie I've seen in the theatres for quite a while for sure. I really enjoyed it.
So american roasties take hundreds of miles of dick but are uncomfortable with a movie where a character has sex??
What am I missing?
I think it's brilliant how it manages tk recapture the horror of the original Frankenstein. Nowadays the idea of bringing the dead back to life using body parts is nowhere near as horrific as it was in the 19th century because we're both used to it and the sacredness is no longer as prevalent. By making a monster that attacks our natural disgust against the sexual abuse of minors the movie recaptures the horror the original novel would have had on its contemporary audience.
yes
>what if everyone fricked a baby but it was ok but it was in a hot chick's body
Its pedophilia, plain and simple. It is the mind of a child. The movie is trying to normalize and defend pedophilia.
>Absurdist Frankenstein Logic style world used to ask interesting questions that you other wise wouldn't be able to ask in reality
>NO ITS A PEDO MOVIE!
You people are morons.
Pedophiles have been making this exact argument for years and its never been valid.
>"some children develop really fast though look this one has boobs"
>"Yes but its a child's mind, they don't understand and aren't capable of proper decision making"
>"but she has boobs"
>"shes still stupid"
>"but boobs"
I've lost count of how many times i've heard that stupid bullshit.
THE BODY DOES NOT MATTER. THE MIND MATTERS.
A third of the way into the movie she's reading Emerson, so obviously she does not have the mind of a two year old by that point. It's undeniable looking at tge actual movie that her mental age accelerates far faster than an infants brain in an infants body would. That's not a "but she's very mature for a 13 year old" argument", its an argument that this is a sci fi premise operating with its own internal, non-scientifically plausible logic to create a character with the capacity of an adult but a childs lack of predispositions about the world, and your argument is a complete reach
You even have the Margaret Qualley character in OP's image who undergoes the same operation but remains at the IQ of a child as a stark contrast to Bella, and nobody in the film breathes a word about sex with her.
I haven't seen the movie or even googled it I just vaguely guess at the plot based on other people's posts
Yeah that’s how I saw it, it’s contrivance to have a Woman Candide
I thought I was stretching in earlier threads when I brought up the Candide comparision, (and I haven't read it in so long I only have a vague recollection of the plot) I'm glad someone else picked up on that.
Her friend sounds cool, she hates radical feminism.
>I’ve never seen this movie, but MY FRIEND walked out of it, so it must be creepy and problematic and I’m going to judge you for having even watched something that I assume is creepy and problematic, because why else would my friend have walked out?
Women will be the death of society.
OK libtard
Do you get to see Emma Stone or Margaret Qualley's breasts or ass?
Emma has multiple nude scenes. Not Margaret.
Emma goes full frontal but it doesn't linger on her.
Nothing from Margaret
How masturbatory are the images anon?
They often play out in wide shots and go by in fairly quick montages. If you have a thing for Emma Stone I'm sure you can jerk off to them but they don't lend themselves to it. If you've seen other Lanthimos movies you can imagine him shooting a sex scene the way he'd shoot any other scene.
There's plenty of Emma Stone nudity.
As other anons have said, the sex scenes are not "erotic" they're either jumpcuts where you see nothing or meant for humour/disgust.
That said there is one scene where Mark Ruffalo is fricking her and there's a closeup of her big bulbous nipple and another scene where she takes her skirt off, revealing her bush and the fact that she was walking around all day without panties on.
I found these erotic.
If this movie is for pedos, does fricking a downy count as pedophilia too? It's the same logic really.
Why are some people so ridiculously afraid of sex?
There was an old guy sitting a few seats next to me in the theatres and he walked out like 20 minutes in the movie when she shoved the food in her pussy
Your sister has better taste than you. The film wasn't good. It was literally just sex.
This movie was garbage on so many levels. I'm usually into some of the darker stuff but it came off as a contrived replica of macabre comedy. My wife and I were trashing this movie for a good week after we saw it.
The part that agitated me the most was the level of 'genius' she obtained. Going off memory but wasn't she still in the infancy phase when she was with the doctor? Then she travels off with the hulk guy and reads a few books and now she's the smartest person in the room and is well versed in medicine or whatever. She couldn't even speak when she was with the doctor but the movie acts like she studied under the guy. Even worse they're not even related so none of it makes sense.
She's literally a fricking moron the whole movie and her acquisition of some linguistic intelligence simply tricks people into thinking she is smart. I don't understand how people miss this. She's a moron the whole movie. She only knows things from hanging around other adults. I thought the mention of 30 francs for sex and the guy saying that seems quite low was quite obviously showing this fact. It's all an act.
My interpretation was that she was just socially moronic because of her upbringing which makes sense. Because of this unique upbringing she gets the freedom to act 'quirky' and 'different'. If I go to Indonesia and don't immediately understand the purchasing power of their currency it doesn't make me a moron, just ignorant.
I don't recall the book but she was reading like Kant or some other philosopher implying that she ascended into the realm of higher intelligence.
I could see that if she wasn't still prostituting herself. Plus, books don't make you smart. My point was that having discussions with only adult made her appear to have the capacity to hold intelligent conversation. I haven't read the book, so I can't comment on that. It didn't seem like flowers for Algernon type intelligence.
>Plus, books don't make you smart.
Did you read that in a book?
The whole point of showing her reading it was to imply intelligence. I can't imagine the director purposely framing that detail with any other intent.
And she's holding intelligent conversations but she's doesn't the have capacity?? She obviously had command of language by the end of the movie so you lost me here.
I think trans kids aren’t real and I liked this movie. I thought it was funny when she starts crying about the poor.
The movie was bizarre but I kind of liked it. It had at least 7 sex scenes though.
A lot of people walked out my theater too.
Americans, can't handle sex at all.
Frick off coomer and kys.
>coomer
Sex is a part of the human experience and it's valid to examine it through art and the stories we tell of ourselves. Sorry, Christcuck, that you're repulsed by the very human thing that gave you life and allowed you to shitpost in here.
Feminist trash. Entertaining but ultimately evil. That’s all I have to say about it.
>Entertaining but ultimately evil.
Filtered.
Having watched the movie a few hours ago, I thought it made its point as clear as day, but of course, because its a dark comedy where most of the cast is morally reprehensible, some are bound to take offense or to see its premise as an endorsement. So, just another day in the movies. I was pleasantly surprised at my theater's audience though, I think that was the most laughs I've ever heard.
Young girl in adult body. Her father can’t frick her, he doesn’t have any junk. See her discover masturbation. Only cares about sex. Reads one book and learns morality. She just has to help the poor. She has to find herself. Sells her body and becomes empowered and independent. Tries lesbian sex. She returns home. She will be a doctor. She’s practically a genius so sure. Her two love interests are infatuated with her no matter what she does. Her old husband drove her to kill herself.

I know this is Cinemaphile and a fair amount of you are moronic, autistic, actual pedos or a mix of all of these but you can't all be this stupid
