#io watches movies

[ikemenomegas]

okay it is actually really interesting how they show older women upholding the structures that support toxic masculinity/patriarchal society

i guess it makes sense because traditionally mothers-in-law occupy a really interesting space in the hierarchy and have quite a bit of power over their daughters-in-law, while I guess the older men in the family slowly lose power to their inheriting son

isnt it crazy that someone can make a completely legal app for ios but if apple doesn't want it in its app store because of lol lmao reasons you have to then go through a gazillion loops just to get this one app and also millions of people buy apple's products because they don't see the problem with an operating system that fully controls what you can or can't have on your device and also has several other major problems. insane

You know what I am fucking tired of inly talking of anglophone media on here

I am URGING everybody who see this post to watch the I Can Quit Whenever I Want trilogy (in italian: Smetto quando voglio) and I am going to convince you to watch it because it's hilarious and it's good and its only sin is not being an american/british product. (Also I found out there's a Spanish movie inspired by it, but I am talking about the italian trilogy).

Take Breaking Bad. A college neurobiologist professor desperately needs money, so he decides to start making drugs. Because he is a genius, though, he creates the formula of a new drug that, being new, isn't technically illegal. You follow me?

Okay, now let's give it a Ocean's 11 twist. To create and sell these drugs, Neurobiologist Professor needs the help of a few friends. These friends are all brilliant laureates, with several PhDs, who, due to corrupt state of Italian academia, are forced into minum wage jobs: you got two latinists working at a gas station, a chemist washing dishes at a Chinese restaurant, an anthropologist pretending to be an ignorant so he will get hired for low-budget jobs (yes, him having a degree in anthropology is actually making it harder for him to be hired), an archaeologist who supervises road work and, my personal favourite, an econmic professor who loses more than wins money at poker.

They're a bunch of disillusioned adults, well in their 40s, who were brilliant and were let down by their country's academia, that hires people based on political affiliation and recommendations rather than actual merits. All they're trying to do is better their pretty miserable lives and fuck the system that fucked them.

And that's just the premise of the first movie. It's a comedy, it's a mafia movie, it's a Shawshank Redemption parody, you got drugs, objectively badass villains, political humour, chases, jumping from moving trains, more and more wild characters adding up (all with their special academic field, you might as well create your OC based on your major). It's like if Guy Ritchie directed Breaking Bad but all of the characters were played by the male cast of The Office.

The third movie is one of the few movies that made me cry not at the end, but at the start. I don't even wanna spoil but there's a story of friendship and revenge for the ages. I could talk about it all day.

I want to be honest, these three movies aren't very politically correct- and I use the expression in a positive way. Sadly there are some stereotypes portrayed in the movies (the first especially), but I still think they're very valid products.

So please, please, even if it's not in English, give it a try. You won't regret it. Here's the link to watch it (there are subtitles in a lot of language on this site, not just english)

Here you got the trailer

And here is the way the movie starts, I translated it in English.

"In Italy, a drug to be defined as such must be registered in the list of illegal molecules of the Ministry of Health. Cocaine, heroin, amphetamines, methadone, ecstasy and roughly 200 other molecules are part of that list. If a molecule is not in that table then you can produce it, you can take it, but above all you can sell it. At 24 I graduated in neurobiology with honors, I have a master's degree in computational neuroscience and one in molecular dynamics. In recent months I have formed a gang that manages a turnover of hundreds of thousands of euros, I am accused of manufacturing and dealing in drugs, armed robbery, kidnapping and attempted murder. My name is Pietro Zinni... and I'm a university researcher."

Finally found a way to watch the Love Me, Love Me not movie and I was worried I wasn’t gonna get the iconic Kazu and Akari moment but it looks like I am and I’m so fucking ecstatic rn

Does she cry over movies?

She will cry over animals dying in a movie. Characters just maybe, but animals? Sure yes. Just about always. But luckily there's a certain emotional support art skeleton almost always there to help her feel better,

You know, it’s that time of a year

[emily84]

just saw EO (IO, Poland, 2022) and came out of the movie theater traumatized. thanks V for suggesting I spend the last day of the year holed up in a cinema watching animals being abused. thank god my sis was with me, or i would have walked out like 15 minutes in.

i mean, i get what the movie wanted to be about, and the message was admirable, and i'm sure that's why it won big at cannes, but still... it was sold to me as a "movie about a donkey walking around doing things" and while technically true... i did not.... expect this. :((((((

I just went to see The Boy and the Heron! I've never seen a Ghibli movie in theaters before, let alone a new one, so it was a little surreal, but it was so reviving. I also haven't gone to see a movie By Myself in a while, so that was really cathartic ^^.

BEETV

Movies have gotten expensive, like really expensive. Certain days tickets are higher than others not including the money you have to pay for snacks cause those are also expensive. Not sure what it cost where you live but our small popcorn is $12 with a small drink and that is way to much for that. I could of went to the $1 or .99cent store and got it way cheaper than that.

We have found an app, that is free and it allows you to watch new movies like a day after they come out of theaters which is nice. Why have to go out when you can watch movies in the comfort of your own home? I mean date nights are nice but it can be expensive on the pockets right now in which we understand.

You can use this app on your firestick, android, iOS, pc(using blue-stack), Nvidia shield which is nice. If you have a google stick or chrome cast, you can stream it from your phone and cast it to your tv. The app is called BeeTV and it pretty much allows you to watch any movie and tv show that you want to.

This site is a free site to watch movies on.

I am so glad I found this site because with me being sick and not really able to go to places, this allows me to watch movies without having to worry about the “What if I can’t sit here long?” “Am I going to get sick in the middle of the movie and have to leave or miss it?”

Check out the link below and get it today!

Get BeeTV here. It tells you how to install it and what to do.
